"She flayed you, and you just decided to marry her?"
Glynda's voice was a blend of astonishment, doubt, and pure 'you're joking me,' after hearing about Parc relationship with the blue haired woman.
"Well yes, but technically no. I'm not married to her. More like she's a plus one in my relationship…s.
"…s? You have more than her and that Kurome girl?"
A glance behind him to the spoke girl left Glynda frowning as the girl was simply sat on her knees, hands over her lap and head tilted down like she was asleep.
She had come to a thought over the passing days since Parc's arrival. More in the line of Summer and her relationship with him. She could tell it was a little more than just a woman grateful to her hero. It was something more… romantical. No. Summer wouldn't do that, it was illogical for her to even accept such an open relationship. She was much too preoccupied with her worries of ruining relationships just like she had been during their days applying themselves to study.
The amount of men she'd turned away could be counted on more than ten fingers, more than half of them having been in steady going relationships that they were all to happy to break up to get a chance at dating her.
"I do. They're not here right now. Off doing… their own thing?"
"Is that a question or an answer?" She questioned.
"Answer. It's complicated. Like, really complicated. And really a it's a stupidly long story I am not going to go into."
"I have the time."
"I don't. I mean, I do. I just don't want to."
Glynda's eyes narrowed to half moons and her posture hardened.
"Do you expect me to accept that types of excuse?"
"Yes. Because you don't have a choice."
"Oh, how so?"
She grumbled, she clearly thought herself special. Parc would be knocking that down quite swiftly.
Leaning in with a malicious smirk that showed off his glimmering white teeth, Parc brought his lips to her ear and whispered.
"Because. For an exhibitionist you are incredibly poor at hiding your assets. Who would have thought, Glynda Goodwitch, in the middle of her lessons wasn't wearing any panties."
Pulling back Parc licked his lips with a serpentine amusement as he watched Glynda's mouth gape open and eyes widen as realization slowly hit her. When it did her pallor faded and was replaced by a reddish twinge, though she quickly steeled her expression, shut her eyes and grit her teeth solidly against the others while also pinching her skirt and pulling it down. Just enough to feel more secure with the 'breezyness' down there.
"That is quite the claim Parc."
Shakily she realigned her spectacles and cleared her thoat, still pink in the everywhere.
"It's not a claim if I've seen the evidence. You know, I never expected you to be so fluffy down there. Far cry from your usual perfect shape, no?"
Had Glynda not the control over her emotions she had, she likely would have flumped over to the side and choaked on air. She didn't, she wanted to, but she didn't.
"I do no-t know what you are talking about."
Parc paused, had he heard, that right? Did Glynda Goodwitch just have a voice crack?
She certainly seemed intent on not letting announcing she had as she crossed her arms and took the most serious posture she could. Refusing any acknowledgement of such.
Hearing a creak Parc was drawn to the doorway at the top of the steps and saw it slowly open allowing two large brown rabbit ears with extraordinarily pink insides and a head of long brown hair and brilliantly brown eyes to peak in.
"Seems the tutors here."
He chuckled as he figured out who the tutor was to be. Leaning in once more to Glynda's ear he whispered in an even husher tone so as to not let the amply eared girl hear.
"Next time, I advise you to pick a place and time for your exhibitionism Glynda. You're lucky I was making sure no one got to see anything unnecessary."
"I am not a-"
"Ah!"
Parc halted her before she could say anymore.
"Careful. Remember. Faunus have better senses than the both of us. You talk to loud and they will hear you."
Glynda shivered and smoothly turned her head around to Lili and Ferry then onto the opening door where the girl she'd chosen to be their tutor was nervously making her way down the steps.
She was short, especially compared to Glynda and Parc, though nothing like Ruby or Weiss, especially nothing like Lili. The bunny eared girl dressed in the usual Beacon accoutrement expected for the theoretical lessons as she'd just finished a stint with professor Peach who was teaching the second years dust science. Her skin though a pristine shade of pale white was near always locked in a state of embarrassed red. The only times it wasn't being whenever her team, team CFVY was around to be her guardians.
"Let's talk… say, this Saturday? Somewhere private. There's this nice café in the city that I've been wanting to go to for a while now."
Glynda's slight tremble halted and she eyed him with a single raised brow.
"Are you asking me on a date?"
He shrugged and gave a nod, or a shake, it was both mixed together.
"It can be, it can also be two adults going out for drinks after a long week of dealing with raucous students."
She frowned in response, narrowed her eyes even further and clasped her upper arms till her fingers went white.
"Plus. I'm pretty sure you'd rather we didn't talk about adult topics before your students. Who knows what type of rumours will begin circulating."
Peeling away Parc glanced to the approaching faunus girl and saw her nearing the bottom of the steps. Ferry and Lili watching her with a curious tilt and slitted eyes. She kept walking with short half steps like she didn't want to bother Parc and Glynda's conversation. As she did so her head would swivel every which way to inspect the room and found the architecture quite old fashioned yet really pretty at the same time.
"Well. I'll give you time to think about my offer. Let me know if you'd like to go."
Parc stepped to the side and turned his full attention to the approaching girl. Glynda unmoving, ground her mollars and once again fixed her skirt, even if there was nothing wrong with it in the first place.
"Welcome, I'm guessing you're here to be Ferry and Lili's tutor for a bit?"
One hand on his hip, Parc met the girl halfway. Finding no amount of pity and mild amusement at the bunny girls jolt of surprise at his voice. Her ears sagged to the side while she fiddled with her skirt.
"Yes sir."
She meekly said.
Breaking out of her stupor, Glynda arrived besides Parc and spoke after a hesitant breath.
"Velvet, this is professor Evans. Currently he is 'teaching' the first years combat techniques. After the half term second years will also proceed to be taught by him. For now he will be providing his classroom for you to tutor Ferry and Lili outside of normal class hours."
Parc already knew the girl. Velvet. Second name, Scarlatina. The gentlest rabbit around. A little too gentle as she gets bullied a little too frequently but that was something that could be fixed through shattered kneecaps and potentially though not quite life threatening bodily damage.
"Hello."
Velvet continued messing with her skirt and the bag she was carrying over her shoulder. A leather messenger bag that looked stuffed to the brim with papers and the like. She tried to lift her head, to inspect Parc but every time she did she'd smell something weird that made her look away and flush.
"Are you alright Velvet?"
"O-oh. Yes Ma'am. Just a little nervous."
With that sad little response that jolted her gaze onto Glynda, Parc got an earful of the sweet British accent she had.
"Understandable. Anyways, this initial session is to familiarize yourself with them and get an understanding of where they are. Ferry, Lili, come introduce yourselves please."
Both girls slowly rose from their seats and made stride towards them. Soon arriving after seven wide steps. Lili per the usual took head and spoke.
"Hi."
"Hi."
Ferry following quick after. She'd taken particular interest in Velvet's towering ears, even if they were a little floppy at the tops were still enormous compared to her own donkey ones.
"Good evening."
Velvet forced a smile. Her ears straightening a smidgens as she finally met her cute underclassmen.
Three sets of eyes locked for a moment, each curious but Lili's, she was more hardened and analytical. Seemingly conveying, 'I might like you enough not to hate you.'
"Well, I do have papers I need to grade, so I won't linger much longer. If you need anything me and…" she looked to Parc and frowned, cheeks reddening again, "I'll be happy to provide it for you."
"Understood Ms. Goodwitch."
Velvet tilted her thin pink lips up and Glynda nodded in turn.
"Good. Professor, I will think about your offer. Have a good evening."
"Evening Glynda."
Parc helplessly at Glynda's choice of title for him and watched as she left the room, near constantly pulling at her skirt whenever it would hike up.
When she was gone and the door shut Parc turned his attention to the three girls. Ferry and Lili twitchy from their close proximity to him while miraculously Velvet was quite still and calm. But he could see it. No matter how much she hid it, he could see her uncomfortability at his and his smells proximity. The way she couldn't look at him, the way her nose would cutely wiggle with a sniffle and how her ears seemingly gravitated like a radar towards him.
'This is going to be fun.'
***
The moment the door shut behind her Glynda slammed herself against the wall of the staircase and gasped for breath. Both hands cupping her face as she silently screamed at herself in shame.
"I knew this was an idiotic thing to do and I still did it!"
She blamed herself for thinking she was smart enough, cautious enough to keep such a secret, secret. She hadn't even thought to consider the what ifs. What if someone figured her out? What if someone saw? What would she do?
She didn't know. All she did was that those thoughts, those 'fears' of being caught made something within her excited. Something that shouldn't have been there at all.
"Sick. I am sick."
Her head banged twice against the wall and she groaned.
"What do I do now?"
She pondered Parc's offer. There was no doubt in her mind that he was going to manipulate her in some manner. Toy with her constantly threatening her with revealing this mistake on her part to Ozpin. If he did it would ruin her, ruin her career. She couldn't let that happen. No. She'd worked too hard to get to this frustrating point.
Her head banged harder against the wall and she winced. Even though aura blocked injury it didn't block non-damaging pain. She was grateful it didn't. It meant she had something to focus on for clarity of mind.
"I… cannot lose this. What are my options."
She went still, mind racing as she pondered and analyzed everything she could do to save her bare ass.
"Accept his proposal. Go on this 'date' of his? I'd be sacrificing my pride as a woman."
Her teeth chattered, she gazed to the staircase and began her ascent, continuing to mutter to herself in muted tones.
"Find something about him, ruin him instead? No, mutual destruction would be a threat then and something tells me I won't find much or that he'll even care considering how nonchalant he's been about his former occupation."
"Remove him? No, worse much worse than having that revealed."
"Deny anything he says? Chances are I would be believed but I need to figure out if he has more… solid, evidence. If he does, I need to destroy that first."
Unknown to her, her rambling had been heard by the odd student. All of whom recoiled and backed away as the saw their professor marching a warpath while chewing her thumb with the eyes of the devil itself.
Slamming her door behind herself she faced her bed.
"Alright. Plan is to accept his proposal, figure out if he has solid evidence of my folly and destroy it—All of it, and then deny anything he may say."
Nodding and huffing approvingly of her newfound plan, Glynda eyed her dresser with a twitch. To say she was stressed was an understatement. To say she was aroused due to her actions was also an understatement.
"No. Calm. Focus. Fix this mistake then I can relieve my stress."
