| Head held up high, Lucius had a designer messenger bag strapped around his shoulders as he stared at the school building with a small grin. Even though school was over, Lucius wanted to practice his sewing skills and had brought his messenger bag which was filled with fabrics, printed tutorials and all the necessary materiel needed to make a lovely mini skirt.
An odd clothing item, but being gender-fluid the male was always feeling indifferent on whom he was. One minute he would be using male pronouns, then the next he'd be using female pronouns along with the nickname 'Luci'. Of course, this made life a little difficult for him, but it was always taken care of.
Strutting towards the main building, Lucius pulled open the heavy metal door and entered as he attempted to shove his bangs behind his ears, but sadly they didn't reach that far. 'I'm glad I have some bobby pins in my bag.' Lucius thought to himself bitterly after all, his hair always seemed to be unmanageable.
Even so, he continued walking down the hallway as if he was on project runway. It wasn't long before he approached the Home Economics classroom and carefully opened the wooden door, peering into the room to make sure the classroom was empty. Relief filled his very being at seeing he'd be able to get some peace and quiet while he attempted to make his lovely skirt.
Shutting the door behind him, he scurried over to the nearest sewing machine settling himself down in the cheap, plastic blue chair that were probably bought in bulk for five dollars. Attempting to make himself comfortable, Lucius got his bobby pins out from his bag along with the fabrics, needles, and tutorials he printed out from the library the other day. Pulling his hair aside, he pinned his hair to the side before he crackled his knuckles.
Picking up a silver needle, he carefully picked out the pink thread and started to thread said needle. For once in his life, Lucius looked to be a normal student one that didn't pick on others or act like a complete brat. For once, he almost looked friendly like one could approach him and actually have a nice conversation.

It was barely a few minutes after the student had snuck in and made himself comfortable that Gideon suddenly emerged from the adjourning door that connected the main room to the kitchen, his arms full of aprons that needed to be washed. He didn't seem to notice Lucius for a moment, focused on the task at hand and getting ready to leave. It was only as he was just about to head out and lock the door that he realized something was off in his classroom and turned to see what it was. He wasn't exactly the most observant of him surroundings when he already had something in mind.
Blinking a few times as his eyes landed on the student, Gideon seemed at a loss as he accessed the situation. It was a good thing he'd realized what he'd missed before he'd locked the boy in... There's been plenty of times where his students had asked to use his classroom after hours, but it always caught him off guard when they simply barged in and made it their own. Well, that wasn't usually what happened, but that was just the sort of air the student gave off. And this wasn't even one of his students... Not that he minded, of course
"Oh... Well, hello there. I don't believe we've met?" Gideon spoke after a moment, approaching the boy. Pausing by his desk top set down the aprons, he then continued to the table, pulling out a chair to sit across from him. He wasn't in any hurry, after all. Gideon made himself comfortable in the very not comfortable chair with a bit of difficulty, and put on a smile. It was strange for there to be a student interested enough in sewing to sneak into his classroom that wasn't in any of his classes... But either way, it also wasn't often that he was able to meet a new student. |

| Carefully holding the needle, a few attempts to get the thin piece of string into the tiny hole on top of the needle were made before a successful attempt actually got the string into the loop. Proud of himself, Lucius hummed slightly as he begins to setup the machine, but had to glance at his side a few times to get a good look at the tutorial after all, most of his knowledge had ended when he got the needle threaded properly.
Most of the time, if his clothes got a slight tear, then he handed them off to his mother who either sewed them up herself or had a staff member do it. Who never really stood around long enough to see who had done it, but they did get done in a timely fashion, then placed on his bed the next day.
"Oh... Well, hello there. I don't believe we've met?"
Engrossed in his work, Lucius hadn't heard the door open and so when the male spoke, he jumped slightly almost dropping his needle. Somehow keeping a firm grip on the needle, his head snapped over to the teacher who sat across from him, giving off a slight glare. Huffing, he set the needle down and attempted to calm his startled nerves. Taking a good glance at male in front of him, it was obvious he was a teacher, but it was after school...
"Obviously." Lucius shot back unable to think of a proper come back. Even so, he went back to his work as he attempted to figure out how to get the thread hooked up properly to the sewing machine.

Gideon quirked a brow at the snappy reply, though he soon shook it off with a chuckle and paused to watch as the boy tried to set up the machine. From the looks of it, but student was just getting started with learning to sew. "Well, this is my classroom, so I figure if you're going to use it without permission, we should at least go through introductions." He spoke after a moment of allowing the boy to focus on what he was doing. "I'm Mr. Hazel. Well... I guess that's what my class is supposed to call me, but not many of them do. It's usually just Hazel or Gideon or, well, Giddy. Ahh, where's the respect." He rambled, making random hand gestures as he spoke.
"...So, what're you working on, then?" He continued after a short moment, trying to figure out whether or not he should offer to help. The kid seemed determined to figure it out on his own, but helping was his job... "Would you like help setting it up?" |

| It uncommon for the male's eyes to be uncovered, but nonetheless he rolled his eyes at the chuckle made as he continued with his works in hopes of ignoring the teacher. Sadly, it was an unsuccessful attempt...
"Well, this is my classroom, so I figure if you're going to use it without permission, we should at least go through introductions."
Rambling, Mr. Hazel, as he was not often called was refereed to by his first name which seemed odd after all, it was disrespectful not that Lucius cared. Mainly due to the fact that he didn't know any of his teacher's names and preferred to keep it that way as he would continue to call upon them by whatever cheap piece of clothing they were wearing. It was sort of becoming more of a game to him by now. Huffing just slightly, he paused his work knowing he would be unable to get his work done without the teacher pestering him over his name.
"Lucius King." He introduced himself, as he felt no further explanation was needed. The last name was common, but it was also well known or so Lucius liked to assume as his father was CEO of the Kings Computer company which made accessories & games for computers of course.
"...So, what're you working on, then?"
Another question, another distraction... Giving up on his concentration, he turned his full attention onto Gideon. "If you really must know, a skirt and no, it's not for my mom, it's not for a girlfriend either or sister. It is simply for me." The male snapped after all, he was used to someone people not being okay with males wearing skirts even though it was a piece of fabric. It was more common to find people against it, then for it. Although he was lucky when it came to his parents as they seemed to be quite accepting of it as they would easily change their pronoun use whenever he demanded it.
"Would you like help setting it up?"
Pausing, the other didn't answer as he was waiting to see the others reaction after all, these tutorials really weren't helping him, but who knew how the other felt about someone being fluid gender? Lucius never saw a problem with it, but for some reason religion had to come into play and ruin all his fun... Perhaps if the other was dead set against his ways, then he could get him to leave him alone... After all, he felt he would figure out the machine sooner or later.
