[The video feed here is set up very much like he's filming an orientation video; he knows little else other than strict formality here, but...when it comes to his school, he would say he finds the professionalism appropriate.]
The purpose for this is twofold, so I suppose I'll just get started.
Over the last few weeks of getting settled into this environment, learning its...well "intricacies" is a small word for it, perhaps eccentricities is better, I believe now more than ever that we need some tangible return to normalcy. I would like to have the school-- [and with the video feed he links something that looks very much like an old-school brochure, (which will very much omit the whole "subbasement" part of the post (and is not icly-literal).).] --up and running within the month. We have the faculties and facilities for a number of traditional subjects: literature, biology, philosophy, physical education [though it might sound like he means something very different by this] and a few other outliers, but we are still very much in need of some help in the history and mathematics departments. (Though I'll take more esoteric lessons under advisement).
[He pauses then, and his demeanor shifts entirely, shifting from cold to amiably warm like he's flipped a switch.]
As for the second point, and no less salient: it is my understanding that I am not the only one of my kind here, and that we are not, perhaps, the only ones particularly gifted. For those of you who may not identify as mutants, I would love the opportunity to speak with you about the nature of your powers.
[He pauses to consider that request for a moment, and follows up with an addendum:]
If any of you are comfortable doing so.

Of course, it's all right. That's what it's here for. I'm only sorry it took so long.
no subject
all his other hang ups have not, though.
he bites his lip, clearly sensing he's said something wrong. ]
I just mean, I'm a little old to only be starting school now, so I thought it might be strange.
no subject
[There's an amiable smile afterward. The admonishment is light, and meant to be more reassuring, but...well, it's hard to tell. It'll require work, but he's anticipated that from the get-go.]
