Note: Original text and characterization of Cate created by magickalmolly; in some chapters through this story, we’ve adapted both text and characterization, but Molly’s work happily remains the foundation for Professor Blanchett.
Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction; the recognizable people in the story belong to themselves and have never performed the actions portrayed here. I do not know the actors nor am I associated with them in any way. If you are underage, please do not read this story. I am not making any profit from these stories, nor do I mean any harm.

( The students here engage with her in a far different way; they seem kinder, more laid back, more eager to please but not in a desperate fashion, which certainly has an appeal for Cate after several years spent earning her reputation as a tough teacher and a strict disciplinarian. )
