I'm a bit more acclimatized to this world now, but I'm still a bit unfamiliar with things. For example, are there any rules on how one can use abandoned buildings? Back in the world I was living in, I was using an abandoned garage and no one seemed to care. Thought I'd ask before I start looking for buildings that would suit my purposes.

Like....?

[jolting]

Personal.

[thestoriesarereal]

:(

You're not going to try and move into the abandoned building are you?

[jolting]

Not live there, but have a few comforts in case I get caught up in work.

[thestoriesarereal]

If you need an assistant, I can ask Emma if I can help out.

[jolting]

Somehow I don't think she'd be okay with you helping me.

[thestoriesarereal]

I could still ask, you never know!

Could say you're helping me with science homework. :)

[jolting]

Mary Margaret did seem to think I would be a good teacher.

[thestoriesarereal]

See! If Mary Margaret thought you'd be a good teacher then, that has to be true!

So, you could help me with my math and science home work, and I could help you with whatever you're doing. If i tell Emma that, she should be okay with it.

[jolting]

Maybe. She and David do have a tendency of seeing the best in a person.

I would help you with math and science anyway, but I won't turn away your help if you really want to assist.

[thestoriesarereal]

They did, and still do....I think.

You mean it? So I can really help?

[Oh look, you're making a child's day. Congrats, Victor.]

[jolting]

Sure. Make sure it's okay with Emma first, though.

[thestoriesarereal]

[Oh, she is going to tell Emma right away, BRB!]

I will! I'm sure she'll be fine with it! Who would have a problem with education?

[jolting]

Good point. Either way, let me know when you need help with homework.

[thestoriesarereal]

I will! It sucks that I still have to go to school on a moon, but it's better than like...boarding school.

[jolting]

Are you having problems with any of the teachers or students?

[he might have adopted Lucy in his mind and is getting into protective mode]

[thestoriesarereal]

No, I'm not. They're okay, but since this is the moon...I thought I wouldn't have to go to school, you know?

So...for this place of yours...are you going to have a library?

[Lucy kind of already sees him as a parental figure so, they can adopt each other. It's okay. If Emma isn't around to ask for help, she knows she can go to Victor.]

[jolting]

Education is important, Lucy. Isn't there anything you enjoy learning about?

It won't be as much as the library we saw when we explored around but yes, I'll have one. Along with my own personal notes and sketches, just like at my place.

[thestoriesarereal]

But...this is a Moon! This could be an amazing adventure!

But I do enjoy learning history...and creative arts. I don't like the homework part.

You're going to need a big book shelf for that...or are you planning to make one yourself?

[jolting]

And living on a moon gives a great opportunity to learn about gravity, astronomy, geology...

I bet you would like the homework part if they made it less like work and more like something exciting or enjoyable.

If I can't find any bookshelves, sure. I am pretty good at making things, after all.

[thestoriesarereal]

[ooc: Things I never knew I needed: Lucy and Victor as not!father/not!daughter.]

...true, I didn't think about it that way.

Exactly! But, then it wouldn't be 'homework,' it would be something else...cause homework isn't supposed to be fun.

Well, you are a genius, so it would make sense that you could make other things. What else is your new place going to have?

[jolting]

[ooc: he adopts a not!daughter in literally every game I play him in. I just go with it at this point]

I'll make sure it's fun when we learn together.

Lab equipment and safety gear. What are your thoughts on botany?

[thestoriesarereal]

[ ooc: It’s adorable. I love it. ]

Promise?

Botany? Isn’t that the study of plants?

[jolting]

Yes, I promise.

Correct. We could have a little garden and work on it together.

[thestoriesarereal]

That would be cool! In Hyperion Heights there’s a community garden that I helped with. I sprinkled hyacinth seeds and some of them started to grow!
