Excuse Me, Professor

Summary:

It'll take 365 days.
Beacon University's reputation precedes itself, creating the best young academics in the world; but how is their Teacher Education program?

-The cast of RWBY becoming teachers, told through little moments in 365 drabbles. IRL AU graduate school hijinks.

Notes:

This is going to be the longest drabble collection I've ever attempted, but here we go. Set in a real life!AU, we're about to embark on 365 drabbles together, exploring the little moments throughout the gang getting degrees in education (plus other assorted grad/professional school nonsense).

(See the end of the work for more notes.)

Chapter Text

Day 1: Pyrrha

This wasn't at all what Pyrrha was expecting.

The warmth and greenery of Main Avenue, so foreign compared to the chilly walls of Sanctum U, bustled with activity as far as the eye could see. But unlike the rush of students flooding through campus, taking their first steps into academia, eyes bright and wide and full of hope, Pyrrha's toned figure and refined features were just a little older than this fresh-faced new crowd.

And in the crowd, she felt lost. This wasn't Sanctum.

But it was a new start. Here, she'd finally fulfill her dreams. She'd found her way at Sanctum. She could do it again here.

"Welcome to Beacon University," she murmured aloud, clutching her bag tighter at her side. This was home, now.
