Geoffrey Burr - Physics Professor
6:40 am

The floor was covered with a non-plush carpet that ran from the apartment into the office and made up the entirety of the surface, except for the restroom, kitchen, and entryway. Purple walls didn’t mix well with the pink carpet. In fact, most objects or furnishings in the apartment and office were strangely colored. The apartment had no refrigerator, most of it was empty. There was no television, or sofas or tables. It looked like someone was about to move out, or in, if it weren’t for the bedroom and office. 

The bedroom had a Superman bed with Batman blankets with things tossed around, it looked like a younger child’s room, but it found itself in the staff apartments at the Herculean Academy, one of the top schools, in the world, for aspiring super heroes. The office in the teacher’s apartment was similar to the bedroom, though less of a mess, there were collectable DC and Marvel action figures and statues lining the walls of the office. 

Drifting around the doorless, except the front, apartment while suspended in air… Was a tall, lankly man with medium-length white hair, it was in a mess. To any onlookers it would seem as though he were in a bed... but without the bed part. Facing upward, he laid in the air, his head rested higher, as though against a pillow, his hands behind his head and a book, also, floating in front of his head. The book’s title read: “Restaurant at the End of the Universe” by Douglas Adams, the pages turned on their own. He gave off a few, soft, chuckles as he read. 

Geoffrey Burr, the floating teacher, really enjoyed silence, he had taught for a while and didn’t hate noise, but gets annoyed when his class becomes too loud… 

GODDAMMIT!

THUD! 

Burr crashed down onto the floor, his book found its way onto his face, face down. “I presume the girls have awoken…” He said in his whispery voice while collecting himself and floating off. “No… I’m positive the school is awake now.”

—7:00 am

After a morning shower and a change into a long coat, jeans, and a Batman t-shirt, Geoff found himself in the lab, adjacent to the gymnasium. I have the two by fours, the wine glasses, and my syllabus, I’m prepared for this day of learning. The lab had fourteen work stations with sinks, outlets and other such things. The walls were white, it annoyed Burr, but he wouldn’t allow it to bother him. The floors were tile and there was an air conditioning vent directed at his desk, he set it to fifty degrees, Geoffrey enjoyed the cold, but he couldn’t live without the pockets of a coat.
