John let go of the woman. He remembered that. There was just no way that the Vice Principal would let that pass. "I don't think that is a good idea. Mr. Richardson would have a fit if he found out you did such a thing." He warned her. A wizard is something that should be messed with. It went double if he knew dark magic. "As for e-mail. Well there is texting now." He answered thinking of what teenagers did.

She rolled her eyes upwards, bending her neck back to look at him from an angle.
"A fit you say?....It's not like I'm stripping or anything." She curled her hand upon her hip, casting a very feminine but a very strong silhouette on the earth. She thought back to all her arguments and petty pranks with, against, and by the vice principal. It was a love-to-hate relationship, but they almost always forgave each other. It was one of the things she looked forward to, having the wizard as a semi-nemesis, since it was never boring and never seriously harming.
"I'll just bring a bit of excitement and interest into the music department. I suppose you haven't had much of that since the last time I was here, huh?" She was almost always in the music hall while she was awake. It was where she was most at home. Not to mention she had most of the equipment to herself during the night when she was almost alone in the world. She found that either by her bond to the oak or her genetic heritage of being a nymph, she would not sleep until she was attached once more to the solid wood of her Drys. At any rate, someone being there 24/7 naturally brought others and someone with such a fun disposition naturally opened those others up to their inner hunger for music. It was what she did... second best.
"Oh, I remember when that was just starting. Emo-tick-ons or something, right? I guess I'll need a cellphone to tap into..." She looked around and then continued on her way to the music hall. She needed a student to gossip to. The thought sent a grin and a flash of her pretty green eyes at the main building. That would be her next stop.

John rolled his eyes. No that was something that Mr. Richardson would not enjoy. A woman stripping. Another thing came into John's mind. How long had it been. Things had changed and he would need to fill Aaeride in on what has happened. "Tell me how long have you been in the tree?" He asked thinking back what happened year by year. It had been a good ten years since all the deep stuff had happened. That would be a lot to talk about. My seven years was closer it would cut three years off.

She chuckled aloud.
"What are you talking about, are you really still pretending you can't remember? It's only been----" but she stopped mid-step and turned on her heel. She thought it was three years, and it was highly unlikely, but it was possible that it had been much longer. Her tree was getting possessive. It had been a leap year. She was a lot rustier than she'd thought she would be.
"Wait, what year is this?" The blood drained from her face as she thought up the variables. She would have snapped right out of it no matter what if there had been an emergency where she was needed to protect the grounds. Yet there were many ways she could have been put into a deeper resting state where she wouldn't even recognise the time delays otherwise. It terrified her, and she looked towards the Jackalope with wide eyes and a trembling lower lip.

John wasn't sure what calendar she used. Lunar was different for Georgian and Georgian from Monster. "It's the year 4011 in the monster calendar and I'm not sure about the Georgian." He answered her. It had been a while since he used the later calender. They were the same except for the years and where BC ended and AD started.

's**t.' Aaeride cursed to herself. She couldn't remember the last time she had been asleep for ten years, much less eleven. As far back as she remembered, she had always been very careful if she intended to return to slumber on a leap year. The earth accounting for a backlogged 24hours gave the Earth, and thereby her Oak, more power. Coupled with the fact that the several hundred years she had been attached to the tree had been split by time she spent as herself... She groaned and sat down on a nearby park bench. She covered her eyes and touched her forehead, suddenly burning with a headache. Something had happened eleven years ago to negate all the precautions she took. Maybe it was a once-in-a-millennia event, but until she figured out exactly what was going on, she wouldn't be able to enjoy herself.
"What happened to the awakening, John? Why didn't I wake up?" Her voice was suddenly small and paranoid, scared of being left alone, afraid of being asleep for so long that everyone forgot Rida.
It was her one true fear: eternal loneliness.

John noticed her stress and squeezed her shoulders a little to relax her. "Well I'm sure the other teachers who've been here forever haven't forgotten you. Claire always has a good memory and Imhotep avoids you like the plagues of Egypt." The Jackolope joked. "I should probably fill you in on what has gone on in the last while shouldn't I." The man continued. He was waiting for her to say yes before he opened his mouth. He didn't want to be rude.

She nodded dumbly, her mind preoccupied with the fears and worries that the realization had instilled in her. It wouldn't make up for lost time, but at least it would update her in the social arena... and give her something to think about while she was in mental shock. She ran her hands through her hair, calming at the physical sensation.
"Yes," She spoke. "Yes, please."
A cool wind swept over the garden, a pleasant feeling that cooled her mind at the same time. She looked up at the native american who had begun explaining, or trying to explain the goings-on of the past eleven years.

John smiled. It had been a long while and he traced his memories back to the year. He took in a deep breath then turned to the woman. "Well lets see. The management has changed. The Janitor is now the Vice Principal who has two soon to be three kids, Reed was able to get a new body in a high school girl who is now head master, and let me think." He took a pause to think of what else had happened. "We have more subject offered. My student, the one I was fond of, Mizuki, is now the dance teacher and is married with a little boy." He answered giving a little. He couldn't really think of much.

"Anything else? Where's..." She thought about it for a moment but decided against mentioning her ex-lover and playmate. He could be dead, he could be married... so many possibilities and not one of them were favourable for herself. If he was still around, word would come to her eventually. It could be awkward then, need be.
"Um, have there been any new creatures around? Any new species come to light since I've been out of commission?"
She was gingerly asking whether there were any new kinds of characters she might be interested in examining, that she might be interested in annoying and befriending.
She rolled a length of her hair into itself, forming a roll of brown-blackness. The shock was finally lessening. She would need to do something soon, something that wouldn't be exactly allowed, but something that would bring her enthusiasm back.

John thought about the best way to answer that question. He could go neutral with the answer or philosophical. Maybe it would be wiser to do both. "Well it depends on what you already knew were creatures before. There are so many creatures in this world that it's had to keep track of all the of them." The man answered then smiled softy. "We have aliens." He answered. Thinking up at least one race that he could answer about.

Luna entered the Gardens smiling. She loved being near plants, especially trees and flowers. She raised her head to the sky and closed her eyes, soaking up the feeling of the light warmth that the sun gave out. You're turning into a bit of a fairy yourself. Muttered Black. I hate outside, chirpy birds and the sun. Make it rain, god dammit. She cursed. Luna ignored her, determined to enjoy this moment without Black's interference.
