( When Charles appears on the video screen, he looks happier than ever. Well, happier than... is standard practise, for this place, and especially given his recent interpersonal shenanigans. Still, he's smiling. )

Hello, everyone. I've rather a large request—I will understand if the need does not suit you—but I do hope that you'll hear me out.

I would like to establish a school, here in Exsilium. It would be for everyone, of all ages. I've received permission, and salary funding, from the Initiative, to gather both teachers and students to... ah, well. ( Charles' expression shifts to an apologetic one. ) To help me refurbish this building and make it a proper educational institution.

In the interest of full disclosure, I will let you all know that I've acquired an old building. It's not in the best of shape, and will need to be fixed up—that is where you come in. Soon, I will need teachers; students, too. But for now—for now, all I need is some volunteers to turn this place into a functional establishment.

( Charles presses a button on his netbook, and this picture appears. )

Your help would be incredibly appreciated.

Thank you very much.

( KANJI MAKES CHARLES SAD :c )

Ah! The young man with the school difficulties?

[rota]

I'm afraid his talents lie elsewhere, but as we're still both in high school, it's best that he finishes instead of dropping out completely.

[oxfordian]

You're certainly right. Ah, on that note—it sounds as though he's interested in personal lessons—( wow charles is this even your place )

Perhaps you would be interested in a small study group with him?

[rota]

Personal lessons?

[Pause, thoughtful. Well, considering how much of a failure every Investigation Team study session went, it might be rough.

... Then again, no Yosuke-senpai or Teddie to throw around inanity, so it might just work.]

It's a good idea, though I would prefer it if it were just us three or another teacher, as anyone else may become a distraction.

( Charles looks pleased. That was just what he'd been thinking. )

That had been my thinking! Only if you've the time, of course. I'm sorry to—be so presumptuous.

[rota]

No, it's fine. I don't mind assisting, especially if it would help a friend concentrate on his studies.

[oxfordian]

It sounds as though it could be beneficial, for him!

Is he your same year, in school?

[rota]

Yes, he is. First year high school, though we were not in the same class.

[oxfordian]

( Charles is just casually entering him into the roster.... )

I see! Thank you, by the way. For all of your help!

[rota]

You're welcome, sir.
