I just want to be average avg

Gawkers Academy was supposed to be a small academy.

Runic Archaeology was supposed to be an insignificant course.

My life was going to be ordinary.

I was so very wrong!

Why is everyone so interested in me? I just want to be average.

Dean was mostly wrong. He was smarter than he thought he was. More careless than he would admit.

But what he lacked, he made up for with clueless charm.

His parents were amused - he wanted to be average but got admission to the most challenging class with the toughest requirements. How could he be so smart and so clueless at the same time?

His professors were stunned - he was a savant. His ideas ingenious. But why did his expectations for himself have to be so far off?

And his friends. They were almost as off balance.

One big adventure.
