"Well, Char, did you ever in your life think you would see something as breathtaking as this?" Carmen gestured to the giant trash slug, lightly shaking Char's shoulders. "I...don't like this." Char said, shaking her head. But Carmen ignored her, walking forward. "Yes, it doesn't get much more inspiring than the trash slug." They began. "It makes a home, a life, from what other people have thrown by the wayside." She grabbed one of those chicken dog toys and threw it aside. "Until, blam! It gets blasted by a wave one day and croaks from all the salt. And then we get to sell the stuff it ate."
Okay sure, some great teacher-student bonding activities, why not?
Carmen held out a pickax in front of Char who said "Please don't make me."
"Aw come on, Char." King said, going over unfurl his towel. "It's not everyday you get to go to the dump and pick apart a garbage carcass."
"Ah, nuts to you both."
"So, Carmen-" Char cut herself off for a second Carmen swung the pickax. "What if we tried some new lessons for my apprenticeship? Like-" She cut herself off another second as Carmen swung the pickax again. "-Read ancient scrolls or mix together potions or-"
"Ugh, that sounds like a bunch of magic school stuff." The demiwoman groaned. "Wait, is there a magic school here?" The demigirl asked. "Like, winding towers, cute uniforms, dark plots that threaten your life kind of magic school?"
"Mm-hmm." Carmen confirmed. "What's worse in they threaten to make you learn magic the 'proper way'. But magic isn't proper! It's wild and unpredictable! And that's why it's so beautiful. I mean, I didn't finish school and look at me. Who wouldn't envy where I am now?"
Seeing Char's mildy upset expression and realizing that maybe she wasn't the best example of a drop-out, Carmen thought of something to say. "Uh...hey, here's a lesson! A great witch is resourceful, like this!" She walked over, grabbing Char's wrist and dipping it in this green, slimy puddle thing. Char pulled something out.
"Oh, hey, a greasy, slime ball." She said in a kind of 'WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING????' kind of voice. "Use your slime ball wisely, young witch." Mama Carmen hath hereby blessed the slime ball. "Back at it! We'll hit the stink nodes first!" She said, grabbing her pickax and pickaxing away at it.
"Actually, if it's okay, I think I'll head home and look at pictures of animals that are still alive." She walked over to King before she lift, to give the mandatory tummy scratches. "Love you, King. You little beach peach."
"More for me then!"

"If magic's all about digging for slime balls, maybe I don't have the stomach for it." Void sighed, placing it in her pocket.
"You can do it! You can!"
Char looked around. "Mysterious voice of encouragement?" She walked forward and poked through the bushes, seeing a shorter person with tan skin and long dark brown hair, sitting atop a rock. "No, little witch!"
"You can do it!" She said, standing up. "Even if you get a bad grade, it's not a reflection of you as witch. And my parents are right! There are better opportunities on this track! Now get to school!" When striking their triumphant pose, they stepped on a flower.
