[Video] Educational Advocacy
Guys, we need a school.
And not JUST because I've been stuck in Turtle-opolis for almost six months and I'm seriously behind in my studies. [She cycles through six different half-grumpy, half teasing faces before she assumes a more serious face.] I know people have been offering to teach self defense and magic and stuff like that, but it's not -- look, it's what we need to be doing.
Educating ourselves is how we prepare for stuff like -- you know, the thing that we have to prepare for.

[She clears her throat and steps back from the camera, revealing half her apartment to be covered with notes about something -- presumably this project.] Oh, yeah, I have a preliminary curriculum, lemme know what you think.
Lessee, we got... Self Defense, English, Kedan Language and Culture, Computer Science, Magic, Physics and how not to introduce stupid invasive furballs into the ecosystem.
Ahem. I mean Newcomer Orientation. Obviously there's not enough of us to really do levels or whatever, but come on. Let's get on it!

[ He's like sixteen, but heck, he probably knows more than your average high school student in those areas. Just don't ask him to brain uberly complex math at this point. ]

But I bet we could find you a teacher and get past the basics!

Yikes, now I'm suddenly hoping there's no homework piling up back home. We were close to midterms when I got here.

And you'll be way ahead of the rest of your class thanks to this school.
