[Some of the residents of these strange planets may recognize the building visible in the background when the video turns on: the X-mansion, at one point intended to be a boarding school but a little short of that vision right now. Those who don't know specifically what it is will just see that it is a very large house (seriously, Charles, who needs that much house?) surrounded by grass and trees.

Look who's venturing out onto the network again. Good for him.]

It seems to me that what this place could benefit from is some self-defense classes. Just in case anyone ever has a need to defend themselves.

[Or finds themselves in an arena again. You never know.]

There's plenty of space in the basement for just that. There are no regular class times yet, so if you're interested in learning, let me know.

[For a fee, of course. He has to afford food somehow.

Then he adds, almost as an afterthought:]

There's regular classroom space too, if anyone has a subject they're interested in teaching.

[coercive]

I will teach.

[She doesn't really need self-defense classes, so she'll just have to help him teach other people.]

[frankensteinian]

Good. They can get more practice that way.

[coercive]

They will need to be strong to fight me.

[frankensteinian]

We'll figure something out.

[culver]

I would like to learn.

[frankensteinian]

Good. I have something started within a couple of days.

[culver]

Will you be teaching?

text;

[frankensteinian]

I will. Does that make a difference?

[greyate]

I would like to take these classes. I know I can fight with my powers but I don't know how to do much without them.

[frankensteinian]

I've found not using my powers helpful on a few occasions.

[greyate]

When my powers were taken from me, it didn't seem all that helpful.

[frankensteinian]

You had your powers taken from you?

There have been a couple of times where methods other than using my powers were helpful.

Something else to tale you up on here. [A half smile.] I'm mediocre at best at stuff like hand to hand combat. [She relies A LOT on her powers.]

And if you think anyone wants to learn about rocks or something else geophysics-y, I can teach something with that.

[frankensteinian]

I've found it useful a few times. It probably helps that I picked up a few things before I had my power to rely on.

[It's just better not to think about why he picked them up.]

You could make the offer. You might be surprised.

[geomagnetically]

[ it's probably best not to, yeah. ]

I think I will. Maybe make some amusing flyers just to have fun with it.

[frankensteinian]

That could be a good place to start.

[He hasn't done flyers or anything, but he's offering in his own way.]

[ Is she comfortable with talking to Erik? No. But they do live under the same roof for the moment, and his idea isn't half bad. Might as well get involved and make sure it stays a good idea.

Besides, she could use a job. ]

Charles would have liked it if the place were to turn into a school again. I'd be willing to teach. I've given students plenty of training in the danger room, and I can give regular classes as well. My history knowledge might not be very useful here, though some might like to take a class for fun, but I could give classes on environmental science for example.

[frankensteinian]

There might be some people here interested in learning about that.

[nimbi]

How involved were you in the running of the school when you and Charles worked together?

[ Back home, she means. ]

[ Hermione hesitates, but - ]

I'd like to learn more about hand-to-hand, if you know anyone that might be able to help. I can offer help with duelling, magical or otherwise, too, if anyone wants to learn? Or just magic in general...

video.

[frankensteinian]

That's one of the things I intend to teach.

[It's an important part of self-defense, after all.]

Magic? There might be some here who would want to learn about that.

video.

[brainiest]

I'd really like that. I've done a little bit, but it's been a while.

[ Her friends had tried, but... She was just never violent enough. ]

I can teach it in theory or in practice. I have lots of books with me that I can copy for people too.

[unaffluent]

How much would they cost?

[frankensteinian]

Not much. A few sencs per session.

[unaffluent]

I see. I think I'd be interested...
