Yeah, but she's not green enough. The jolly green giant should be drooling (and maybe fapping) over her. Instead he's like: "Meh, I'll pass". *swipes right*

That's some great De Vere writing there.

[@Eramiserasmus]

So Professor is officially his own garden statue. And leave it to Kathleen to rip apart both sides of this argument. And Professor knows the struggle about essays and terrible interpretation skills.

[@yahelhotam1777]

i knew something was different! kudos for Kathleen

[@thisguy.287]

You know she makes a good point. It's much better to get experience that you'll use than take a bunch of useless courses that you'll forget in a year. College is actually kind of messed up like that. You'll stress over classes that shouldn't matter, you'll learn nothing and ultimately come out of college with only slightly more knowledge than you had before.

[@luliby2309]

Vraska's outfit is impressive, wow. And "written by Kathleen De Vere"? Seems appropriate.

[@gydrah4244]

Oh professor. you forget that before leading the golgari, Vraska used to be an assassin. A very good assassin too.

It would have been great for Prof. To say something like: "You know why you need that degree? What do you think is going to happen 10 years from now in the format when requirements change and you lose your spot because you didn't finish your classes? You have one semester left! One!"

[@paralykeet-]

Sad that Isperia only gets a throwaway mention here. Destabilizing the laws of Ravnica by eliminating the only Azorius leader who dictates "more is less" where authoritative law is concerned is something much more impactful than dialogue involving Ixalan- things which Vraska doesn't even remember because Jace did Jace things.

[@kingturtle3956]

Prof your breaking the story line and it’s triggering me!!!!! (Jace erased vraskas mind of him being her “boyfriend” so nicol bolas wouldn’t suspect anything and promised after she is guild leader and nicol bolas comes to ravnica he will give her memory back and they will beat him up and then go on a date) So at the moment she wouldn’t know about shirtless jace only mildly unfit jace who refused to murder people with her. Prof what’s up with that?

[@charleybrett1663]

And yet you're okay with the idea that Vraska studied Dominarian poetry at a community college? Seems legit.

[@kingturtle3956]

Charley Brett as a wise man once said “anything’s possible at college”

[@toby_2bae4me25]

Is it just me or was it on purpose that both Jace and Vraska act like spoilt brats on Office Hours? Maybe they really are made for each other.

[@TapCat]

[@dragonboyjgh]

I dunno Prof, I think Vraska's actually making a pretty good case here. She has the job, and it seems like she has what she needs to run it. Having SOME schooling has certainly been a benefit to her, but I don't think she stands much to gain finishing her major that she wouldn't gain instead through on-the-job experience. The only thing she really needs to work on is pay, because what kind of self-respecting pirate captain doesn't get loot? Also I doubt golgari CEO or Bolas agent pays in cash either, only substantial but non-transferable benefits and total expense coverage. Which means no retirement plan.
