asl
in an hour
heres the location

The grassy area had a few books lying around. There was one opened to the alphabet and a few others were open to some simple, everyday words that were common in everyday use.

Dave was sitting near them, although he was busy flattening his sandwich. It's not like anyone was here yet. Honestly, this was probably a terrible idea. He wasn't cut out to be this people person who helped everyone learn with a smile. That was John's forte. But John wasn't here anymore. Hell, a lot of people weren't here anymore.

But...it was nice. Seeing everyone sign to him. Even if it was a simple hello or the bare minimal. it was nice to see people try to communicate to him. Hell, it looked like they still were trying. Why should he deny them the chance to learn?

Even if it made him nervous.

Because he wasn't used to it. Shit was too personal. This was too much. And it was impossible to read his face. He knew the basics for ASL. Facial expression was important. But he still kept to hiding behind the shades.

He pushed all those thoughts out of his head. Right. Teaching ASL. He can do that. He started eating his sandwich, waiting for people to arrive.

Is it good or bad to have a battle pair of prefects looking out for you? Who knows. Jade and Sora are the co-leaders of the Looking After Dave fellowship, anyway. She smiles at him as she regains her breath, and then remembers that, hey.

You can sign without opening your mouth. That's a thing that can happen.

'Hello'!

He's not sure why there's even a Looking After Dave fellowship. He can take care of himself. Even if he keeps getting into fights and shit. It's all him.
