"Just turn you textbooks to chapter 15, I'm going out to get some booze and a carton of fags."
Alec slipped into English as he opened the door and slipped out of the classroom, while the class was still going. lighting the cigarette in his mouth before continuing down the hallway.
"Is there one student here that isn't completely barmy!" He screamed, it's not like anyone would understand him, or try to stop him from leaving the School grounds, would they?

A hand found its way onto Alec's shoulder as Takashi cleared his throat. He had come across the man in the middle of a coffee run. A teacher. Smoking. In the school. "Oi. Webster. Mind your English. I'm not sure if you get this, but every fucking Japanese has been educated in English since they were kids."

He growled the last part out, trying to keep his anger in check. There was no need to get angry at a teacher. "I get that there are a shitton of nutcases here, but you're an adult. It's up to us to keep them in line, isn't it?"

"If they all understand English, then why do get such a hard time when I use it?" Alec's cockney accent does it's best to prove he's never been to America, or anywhere short of Nagashima and his homeland.

Wait, they understood that? This is bad.
Alec remained calm, on the outside at least. His attempts at being "cool" were in danger, he needed to think of something fast. Forgetting the alcoholic part of his plans as he continues.

"Just going out to smoke a fag, you want one?"
The Brit offers a cigarette to Takashi, seemingly joking, mostly misapplied irony.

"Hell yes," Takashi said, taking the cigarette from the other teacher. He frowned for a second. "Actually, yours too."

He pinched the lit end of the cigarette, extinguishing it. In actuality, he had used a bit of an Agi when his fingers made contact, but unless Alec had microscopic vision and scanning capabilities, he would be unable to tell. "And the rest of the box. Now."

"I'm kidding about the last part. But..." The man lowered his voice. "I'm pretty sure that you're smart enough to know this, but there are laws about smoking on campus. You announced that to the entire fucking class. They might not know what a fag is in your slang, but I can tell you that smoke most definitely rings some bells.

"Do you understand how deep in shit you could potentially be in right now?"

"Fine, have them."
Alec almost hands over the entire carton before hearing that Takashi wasn't as serious as he sounded.
"A "Fag" is what we called a cigarette back in England, it's a perfectly fine word, and I'm used to saying it." Said Alec watching as the other teacher put a cigarette out with his bare hands.
"Fine." it begins to become apparent Alec doesn't enjoy his job. or perhaps he would rather be teaching some other subject.

"It's not like I sleep though class like most teachers here. I'll just wait till I get back to my apartment then." Alec seems more comfortable speaking English than Japanese.
Well that didn't go well, I'll have to do something about the damage to my coolness later.

"That's a sound idea. If you started to smoke, the fire alarms would have gone off. If you've been awake for the past few months, then you've seen the incidents crop up. If they find you stinking of nicotine and the sprinklers are off, you can bet your ass that you'll be on the administration's shit list," Takashi said, adjusting his glasses.

"Plus, smoking is a pretty disgusting habit overall. I'd warn you to stop if I knew that it would do any good. By the way, in case you didn't know, we use the word 'cigarette' in this part of the world. The word you use for it sounds offensive."

Alec had completely given up on his plans for a break by now, working more on restoring his "cool" image.
"Like I said, I'll wait till I get back to my apartment, don't get so wound up."

Somehow, I'm sure he's going to stay wound up. Alec keeps a bit to calm for his situation, his attempts at being cool were still working, at least form his point of view.

"Kid, if you think this is fucking wound up, then you really have no grasp on the concept of anger. I'm always this fucking wound up. In fact, the only reason that I'm still able to drive myself onward in life is because I'm this goddamned wound up," Takashi grumbled as he glared at a person wandering in the hallways, evidently skipping class. Said truant quailed and began to head towards a classroom.

"I'm on the shittier side of normal at the moment, actually. I usually am. Why the hell am I telling this to you? You evidently don't care," Takashi said as he rolled his eyes, looking at his coworker. Look at him, trying to be all cool and detached. How old did he think he was? Twenty?

"Well, it doesn't really matter anyway. So why the smokes and booze?"

Alec wasn't at his best when he had no control over where the conversation was going, and this was most certenly one of those times. He heard all of it, maybe I should just tell him that this was the only teaching job I could get.

"Would you belive me if I said this wasn't the subject I wanted to teach?"Alec sounded like he was joking, or changing a question into something not meant to be answered.

"Because if you would then thats why." Waiting for answers is so mainstream.

"Uhuh. Which is why you went out and got the credentials for the subject anyways?" Takashi raised an eyebrow and looked at the other man quizzically. He was trying very hard not to get genuinely angry. He coughed into his hand and crushed the cigarette that he had received from Alec earlier.

"Well, no point in harping over it. What did you want to teach, then?"
