[Heyooo Institute guess who's back from his (much needed) break? This dork.]

Anyone who is joining an X-Team, please vamoose over to the nurse's office as soon as possible for a medical evaluation by me or Dr. Kobayakawa. Especially if you're under 18.

As awesome as it is to be a super hero, health is the most important thing. We'll sign you a waiver that you're fit for fight. Literally.

[After checking the date...]

...it's not an April Fools joke, by the way.

Oh, my God, who knew wedding planning was this much work?

[Of course, he is doing it in a fraction of the time one usually does. On top of all the things he's usually doing, and all the trouble that's been coming out of the woodwork lately.]

I need to do something else for like 5 minutes, or I swear I'm gonna beat someone to death with a super-tasteful centerpiece. So I thought, okay, let's try something totally out there for a change, let's do something for my job! Or, one of them, whatever.

So we all know the political sitch has been messed up to the max lately, and I figure some of you probably have a lot of questions about it! Especially the people who aren't getting the benefit of my kickass political science lectures. So for one afternoon, I'll be down in the common room, taking any and all questions! You're welcome.

Oh -- Costume Club, anyone who wants to help me make decorations and not Groomzilla out and punch anybody will get, like, free paluszki and my undying friendship. No sweets today, 'cause it's Lent, but I could give you a rain check for them!

[He gives the camera a shrug, and then, since he's about out of things to say, a cheerful little wave.]

[Catherine flips on her screen at... well... it's either really late at night or really early in the morning. Despite the ungodly hour, she seems as lively as ever.]

[This can't be right.]

Heeey~♪

Can somebody please spot me twenty bucks? I just had three of these Ballz Energy Drinks and they're great stuff! The thing is, though, I just drank my third one in th' past hour and they're just not working as good as they should. So I just need to borrow a little bit of dough, head over to the convenience store, and get me another twelve pack and I'll be golden.

And don't worry about payin' you guys back. I'm good for it, honest! I just need to study just a bit more of this exponents homework and then I'll be good. Oh, but I also gotta read up on The Great Gatsby. And maybe follow up on my *yawn* on that Cuban Missile crisis thing...

[Honestly, there isn’t that much of a difference to how Feliks and Fai would normally present themselves on the network together. The former is draped over the latter’s lap, and Fai is distractedly fussing with Feliks’ hair. Nothing out of the ordinary for the very best of friends, really, apart from how they are possibly looking even more smug than usual.

Still, their announcement won’t be news to many. Fai is the one who begins speaking, smiling slyly with an evident hint of self-humor.]

So, in case you have been living under a rock or possibly really don’t care about the love life of your teachers - shocking, I know - me and Feliks would like to formally make it known that we are getting married.

[Feliks, who already looked pretty impossibly pleased, has to take a second to compose himself, because just hearing Fai say that still sort of makes him sort of melt a little.]

Yeah, totally! So like, I guess consider this your save the date. And your invite? Since you’re all invited, duh.

--Oh, right! The date. April 7th. So you have 5 weeks to find something fierce enough to wear to our wedding without dying of shame!

[Just look at these insufferably happy and ridiculous bastards. Fai gently flicks Feliks’ cheek with a finger, laughing.]

It will be here, by the way - this way we can make sure as few of you as possible will have an excuse for staying away. The ceremony will start at 10 am, so we even have a set time like proper adults.

Oh, and since it is still pretty quick? Anyone who wants to help out is incredibly welcome to it.

comparative_insanity

[Hello Institute! That embarrassing last post where everyone tried to beat it into Fai's thick skull how dumb he is about Feliks? Let's pretend that never happened. Especially you, students. Today, Fai is being professional.

Well, professional for a given value, anyway. Fai is in his lab coat, but Fai is almost always in his lab coat while he's around school, so that doesn't say much. Underneath he's in a plain black linen tunic and pants like these because he's always been a great big hippie. He's perched on his desk, smiling brightly at the camera.]

Hello students! Since I was reminded by our school nurse, in a manner of speaking, I thought I should make a quick announcement of it...

For those classes this applies to, we are in fact going to use the time leading up to Valentine's to get started on sex-ed, no matter how cringe-worthy that might be to some of you... or just old news, I suppose.

[He shrugs, because really, he doesn't give a toss if you blush when someone says 'breasts' or if you've already moved on to the advanced section of your own private practical exercises, there's always something important to learn.]

Younger classes will be going through the basics, we'll scare you all with facts about puberty, and we'll have a couple of classes set aside for questions and answers hour - there will be a question box where you can drop whatever you want to know on a piece of paper. Or just jokes of varying maturity, I guess - who knows, you might come up with something I haven't heard before. Maybe there'll be a small price.

[That is, of course, if you actually would like to stand up in front of class and be congratulated on the matter. So probably not.]

Some of the older classes will have repetition, some of the more scienc-y bits, plus open discussions covering sexuality and gender identity more extensively, as well as safe sex, consent, social structures, sex and mutations, that sort of thing. We might co-ordinate with the social sciences department a bit.

[He looks down and to the left of him, as if he has a list which he's trying to cover.]

If anyone has any questions or a topic they want to especially broach, do bring it to me, and I promise I won't shout out your name in front of the entire class. You can be completely anonymous.

[He winks, because he's a bit of a complete bastard, but he'll still stand by his word.]

Oh, and on a related topic... Try not to get caught, will you? It's almost as embarrassing for the lot of you as it is for us teachers, and that's saying something.

[And with a small nod to exactly how much of a grown-ass adult he is, he ends the transmission.]

defibrillating

[Hello everyone, have a smiling medic in your feed this morning. He looks kind of exhausted despite his friendly grin.]

Valentine's day is coming up, and I hope everyone will be enjoying it! It's my first time not just seeing my parents celebrate it, so it will be nice to see all the happy couples.

For us singles, however, I'll be loading some action movies and comedies in the TV for the 14th so we can still have a nice time by ourselves. No need to be mopey about not having a date, watch Die Hard 5 and make fun of how old Bruce Willis looks instead!

[He might be a little mopey himself, hence drowning it in bad movies.]

As your school nurse, I must also remind you to practice safe sex. There are free condoms and dental dams in the nurse's office. While sexual relations between students is technically not allowed, I'd rather you guys be safe. I'll leave the punishments to the teachers.

[It's a wonder he can say all that when the poor man can't even get a hug without blushing his face off, normally. Medic Mode™ ]

[Now that he's finished moving his things into his room here and has had a chance to begin settling in, time to let the students know there's a new member of the faculty around.

However, since he's currently busy and doesn't want to show just what he's currently up to, though those with keen hearing might hear the noises typically created by a spinning wheel beneath his voice.]

Good Evening. My name is Mr. Gold, I'll be teaching Alchemy here within a few days. If you're interested in the subject, I'm willing to teach you of it.

To give you an idea of what I will be teaching, I'll be starting with exploring in detail the individual symbols that compose alchemical emblems and try to help my students develop the ability to analyse and read alchemical emblems. After that we'll go into different alchemical texts.

In addition to teaching, I can provide healing should it be required.

[Soon he'll be able to also provide potions, but he needs to locate a lab and acquire additional materials before he can produce those. Best not to mention those until he was capable of making and handing them out.]

I look forward to meeting those of you who'll be in my classes.

[And with that the audio ends.]

fathoming

[1: Video]

[Naija is blurry with darkness. The ice on the lake is beautiful, thick and shining to bursting with light that looks like it'll drip into the water at any moment, droplets sinking bright into the depths. But the light is mostly trapped there. Only when she swims up close to it can you really make out her face. She's a little gaunt looking. She sighs.]

Can anyone help me get out of here? The ice has frozen too thick for me to blast through.

[She's humiliated. She's been trying to get through for days ~~like a true metroidvania protagonist~~, missing her classes.]

[2: Action]

[When they finally fish (har har) her out of there, she looks cold and hungry. Which is not all that surprising, given that she's still wearing the glorified bathing suit that is her normal clothes. She clings to her good samaritan, trying to pull as much body heat from them as possible.]

whosafraidofthe

First of all - don't ask.

[It's pretty clear what he's referring to. He is currently dressed in an absolutely horrendous sweater, which he keeps scratching at in annoyance. Making bets with a certain saucy language arts teacher is not recommended.]

Second, for god's sake don't listen to that Yeager kid. I'm sure most of you are smart enough to realize it, but it looks like he's under the impression that it's a "violation of his rights" to learn to keep his powers under control. Seeing as skipping classes wastes time and makes it that much harder for us to teach you how to survive once you get out of here... you see where I'm going with this. I figure if you ignore him long enough, though, he'll get the hint that he's doing more bad than good.

[And then he suddenly brightens up, with that smug grin he only has when he's making someone's life hell.]

Third, if you've got some spare time on your hands, the security club should still be taking members. Come on down, keep Officer Adachi company and bust some trouble-makers or something. Maybe you can just get someone you hate in trouble.

[Bigby, don't give them ideas. They'll take it seriously.]

defibrillating

[The feed turns on, showing Zian in his room. It's fairly well cleaned with a load of comic books, other books and video games filling the shelf behind him. The medic looks around a little before appearing mildly confused, tapping the web camera until deciding it worked good enough.

Then he starts signing, his hands making gentle, precise movements while the translator in his mask turned the movements into spoken (if robotic) words.]

Hey, does anyone want to earn like a buck or two?

I need to find someone to go Christmas shopping for me. My parents usually did it, but since my dad died last year I can't exactly ask my mom to go buy her own present. It wouldn't feel right.

...obviously I can't go shopping, myself.

ladyliberty

So, everyone on my Christmas list this year is getting herpes.

You're welcome.

PS hit me up to get on the list ;)

garganteren

I wanted to make sure everyone knows: I'm boycotting all my classes. No matter what.

I don't agree with the mission of this school, and I'm being held here against my will! So I'm officially on strike in protest of your unjust policies!

[It's true, as was pointed out to him: if he's protesting, he should let everyone know about it!

He's still not sure about the hunger strike part of his plan, as he needs to eat a lot. But he boycotted Thanksgiving, so that's a start.]

deadlyjuliet

[A relatively new face to the Institute, Grell's been stuck watching training videos about how to manage academic offices. It's been boring. So boring. Once the videos were over, though, the real work started and the new office lady(?) has realized something very important.]

To those in the student body who are organizing new clubs, first let me applaud you on your enthusiasm. Everyone should learn from your excellent example. Second, please allow me to remind you to turn in your bloody forms. I am not chasing you down because it's absolute murder on the legs to run in heels, and a lady should never be required to run anywhere that doesn't hold handsome rewards for her. If you force me to chase after you, you will not enjoy it. Are we clear? Wonderful. I expect tardy forms in by the end of the week.

As for the staff and faculty, please do me a pretty little favor, hm? I seem to have misplaced a bottle of polish - rose red - when watching one of your classes. If any of you have seen it, do be a dear and return it? I have a special reward to any handsome prince who brings it back to me.

[Which is to say, she left a bottle of polish in most male teachers' classrooms so she has a reason to talk to them all. Huehuehue.]

no_girl

[This is a weird one. People have definitely seen this girl around campus, for sure, but you ever get the impression there's just something... off? About her whole existence? Like she's not really there, just in your head? It doesn't help that the 'room' she's broadcasting from doesn't seem to exist in the whole campus...]

So I've been watching a lot of news lately... it was hard to watch news when I was with John, because he never really let us watch TV, and...

I have to admit, I'm afraid. I'm not really afraid of registering, I mean... Pretty much anyone can tell I'm a mutant. I can't really go out in public like normal people do. [But she looks normal? Weird feelings when you look at her too long aside.] But it's kind of about this Mutant Liberation Front and, you know... like... Ugh, this is hard to put into words.

What would happen if that war everyone's worried about happening won't be between the US and Genosha but... more like a civil war right here? Between mutants and humans.

[It's starting to feel more and more real every day.]

nyancrophile

[Orin is still finishing one of her signature twin braids as she starts the video feed, smiling brightly into the camera.]

Heya! I've been settlin' in pretty nice, so I thought now's the time to say hello. Don't want it to get too awkward, right? I'm not the wallflower type so I'd really rather not put off introductions any longer...

So! Introduce yourselves to me. I was promised I'd meet a lot of real interesting people here, so make your cases, 'kay? It's not fun if you're all just a bunch of boring sad sacks.

[An idea seems to occur to her all of a sudden, and her tone suddenly becomes a little more urgent.]

By the way, is there like...a gardening or architecture club, or somethin'? A girl's gotta know. For reasons.

[Reasons like knowing if there's a club that wouldn't mind lending out a wheelbarrow or something similar out to her.]

kickstart_my_heart

What is the signifigance of this 'ice bucket challenge'? Is it a kind of hazing? Or is it symbolic? [The son of ~~The Wicked Witch Of The West~~ Elphaba Thropp is a wee bit weirded out by all these buckets of water being splashed everywhere...]
