[ The A.C.E. camera feed is set up so that when it flickers to life--best effort converted technology that it is--it's a steady front-on angle. This is #seriousstuff, he doesn't want this to be construed any other way. ]

First off, I believe I need to extend an apology to all of you for having been somewhat lacking in faculty at being faculty. Excuses be what they may--and I know the past several months have been a distraction, to say the least--I recognize that they do only extend so far.

That all said, with some very enthusiastic support, I think we may just be ready to get this school on its feet properly.

And yes, kids, I did say school.

[ It's said with a smile, but he knows the excuses are coming. Better to cut that off at the quick, right? ]

To those of you who expressed interest previously, please consider this your formal follow-up invitation. We need all the help we can get.


[ ooc: There is an ATTACHMENT to the video post. This spreadsheet should include separate pages for classes, student sign-ups, and clubs (if you're inclined to extra-curriculars). Feel free to slot yourself in how you want, add a new line if you want to double up on a subject/deal with a variant of, or add a subject I missed.

ooc, p.s.: I will have a school mingle log to condense top-levels/log posts/etc. up later this week. ]

[ #SENTINELGATE well fuck.

Allow him to roll his eyes just a little, Peter. ]

You do realize all of science, and space technology, and even this station working is math, yes?

[quickfingers]

... You know what I mean. [Hrrrmph.]

You have Logan on phys-ed. That's... That's gonna scare the shit out of people. That would scare the shit out of me. Oh god - is any of this mandatory for X-Men? Please say no? I'll retract all my statements and praise math if I don't have to do any push ups in front of Mr. Claws.

[welcomeprofessor]

X-Men. [ It's sort of a distant statement, ponderous more than anything with teeth. Nothing like the shocked revelation that had led to the whole...explosion of emotions over Cairo. Jean has explained some. Raven had hinted at it once, and he knows Hank has been chomping at the bit for it for years.

It's a conversation Charles still very much needs to have with Logan, directly, before he can give any unequivocal answer. But... ]

Peter, I've lived through physical therapy post-injury. [ The worst of it thankfully years behind and plenty of it entirely useless, but that's not the point. ] If anyone is going to convince me the team is a good idea, I should say that's the least you could do.

[quickfingers]

[Goddamnit. He wants to whine but his whole 'make something of yourself' turning of the leaf and becoming an X-Man shit he threw himself into kinda moots the point. He lolls his head back with a grumpy grunt of dismay.]

Fine. I'll do one whole push-up but that's it. [He'll... sign up. With another sigh.]

[welcomeprofessor]

You know that's not up to me when I'm not the one running the course.

[ aka: kid, he knows that's not what it's going to be like one bit. But sure, keep holding onto that if you want. ]

[quickfingers]

It's your school, you're technically the boss. You have veto power.

I'm not made for push ups. You don't want your like, students to suffer do you? Do you?

[welcomeprofessor]

Suffer? Of course not. But a little work won't kill you, Peter.

[ "It builds character." ]

[quickfingers]

Is it too late to be like, "ow my leg still hurts me"? [Fuq.]

If I have to do it, so do Jean and Kurt. I want that on the record.

[welcomeprofessor]

[ Oh, Peter. He laughs. ]

Considering the idea is to help you all manage your mutations physically, that's the one part of this I do agree with.

[quickfingers]

[Some relief in the fact if he's going down, others are too.]

Eh, that sounds fair.
