Pearl padded through the careers room with open curiosity, hand lightly held by her older brother Laviticus as he guided her through the gymnasium. The school set up various tables outlining all sorts of different careers Juniors and Seniors could pursue if it pleased them each year to try and help them figure out what they wanted to do. It was a mandatory gathering where the students were expected to at least take one quick lap around the room and see what options were being presented that year. Laviticus already knew what career path he wanted to chase after. While, technically, the presentation wasn't set up for freshlings, Pearl had to attend anyways, Laviticus was her baby-sitter and chaperone for the evening, and so, wherever he went, so did Pearl.
Pearl's eyes glanced over the room. She could see all sorts of professions she assuredly didn't wish on anyone. There weren't many options that jumped out to Pearl. Perhaps it was just far too soon for her to be considering what she wanted to be when she grew up, but one nightmare in particular caught her attention.
The woman was dressed in a pale pink with a cute little hat on her head. Pearl gentle tugged on Laviticus to steer him closer to the table, and Laviticus happily obliged.
"Nurse ... " Pearl read out, then blinked. Ah, a nurse! That was something Pearl could see herself doing! She had always had an affinity for caring for others, and did all she could to help out with her siblings back home.
'Yes, a nurse ... ' Pearl would have to tuck that one away for when she was older. For now, it was time to let Laviticus continue to explore the hall that had been set up for his age group. "I'm done now! I was just curious!" Pearl beamed at her older brother, and he returned the smile, and the two continued their circuit around the gym.
