Could use some extra hands in the next few days.

Getting a few classrooms set up in the Civics Center. Need to get chairs and tables in there, and a work space for instructors.

And those of you who have helpfully volunteered in the past during the planning stage, please check in.

About time we start providing for our younger members. We'll try and keep the day not too long, and there will be fitness involved.

Anyone who is willing to guest lecture for a session or two on a special topic, please let me know. And someone with comms check in. Wanna see if there's some way we can transmit this stuff up to the Agrii. Clearly they need it too.

You're puttin' together some kinda school? How many kids we got running around here?

[ziedrich_bearer]

It's something we've needed for a while.

Don't know exactly how many. Enough and young enough to need it.

[manofmanynames]

Heh. Yeah, I s'ppose you do. Well, good luck getting them to come. Maybe after all we've been through, they'll actually want to learn something.

What kinda classes are you doing?

[ziedrich_bearer]

Normalcy can be useful. Plus there's the fact that the Agrii need to learn too.

Anything I can line people up for. This Reeve dude agreed to some math and physics. Richie doing writing and composition and reading stuff. I'm gonna do critical analysis and historical stuff, but more focused around here and how to think about what you learn.

[manofmanynames]

Heh. They sure do.

Maybe I could do some science and engineering.

[It's not a completely selfless offer; he's thinking if he can teach more people how to build, they can help him get together some of the stuff he's been wanting.]

[ziedrich_bearer]

You know a lot about engineering? What sort?

[manofmanynames]

Enough to build hoverbikes and huge mechs back home.

[He speaks with much pride in these accomplishments.]

[ziedrich_bearer]

Ah. That could be useful.

[Though from Gladio's experience, mechs were dangerous. Those were just the ones back from his home, though.]

So mechanical, not architectural or electrical.

[manofmanynames]

[Yeah, they sure can be. But Fang loves that, for better or worse. Probably worse.]

Pretty much. I could throw in some electrical too.

[ziedrich_bearer]

That could be really useful for these kids. Give them some understanding to help them think about what they might want to delve more deeply into.

[manofmanynames]

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm aimin' for.

[Especially if they'll want to help him.]

So when does this start?

[ziedrich_bearer]

If you want to help set up rooms, then now. If not, probably a month or so.

[manofmanynames]

I'll come check out the set-up. Better get my room ready too. I'll be over shortly.

[ziedrich_bearer]

Alright then. That works for me.

Do you want to end it here or play out him coming?

[manofmanynames]

You need any supplies to get things going? Chairs and tables, like you mentioned? Or have you got 'em and it's just a matter of putting them in?

Closing out makes more sense

[ziedrich_bearer]

Going to get chairs and tables best I can. But putting them in is a whole other thing.

Okay!

[manofmanynames]

Alright. I'll come on over and help you set up what you've got.
