I need me a superhero or “Chosen One” kid who is homeschooled. Plenty of kids average about 4 hours-ish of schooling per day and go through subjects fast (if they understand the material), so just imagine how much more stuff a homeschooled hero can get done. And none of that trying to keep up with appearences stuff either. Sure maybe they’d miss out on a sports practice or homeschool co-op or date with friends but like??? That happens to anyone? Otherwise people are gonna assume they just home all day.
Are you frickin’ kidding me, best cover ever.
“So-and-so sure is late a lot…” “haha yeah homeschoolers and schedules ammiright”
“Why does he know so much about criminal procedures” “homeschoolers man, I think they have like a junior court or something in the area”
“That’s a flashy outfit” “ugh probably made it himself, one of the drawbacks of not having a student body to bully you”
^the homeschooled kid letting the gossip do its thang
Love this. And part of me sort of wants to see a situation where the kid *starts* homeschooling because of this superhero stuff. Like, “I can’t keep up with this schedule” and then the supportive parent is like “Okay then, don’t” and suddenly we have a teenage superhero with a healthy superheroing-life balance
As another ex-homeschooler this would be great! Be nice to have some representation that wasn’t elite athlete or fish out of water going to high school.
