Some Top-Level Ideas:
- Faculty Preparations & Mingle (Before September 8th)
The faculty of Lofty Heights has a lot to do before the school year actually starts — prepping their classrooms, working out a curriculum, getting to know each other, getting the office to order the right supplies. - The Wormhole Projectors on the Bus Go Pew Pew Pew
The bus stops for Lofty Heights students are peppered throughout each of the cities. Parents and students alike are waiting there to be picked up.
Once you're on the road, things seem normal... until a womrhole opens up. The bus goes right through it, and suddenly all you can see out the window is clouds below... and the massive floating school complex on the horizon. - In-School Interaction
Are you lost on your way to your next class? Having trouble getting your locker open? See a friend and want to chat? Or maybe there's a pack of Seniors on the pros wl for new students, looking to do a littlebullyinghazing.
Or maybe you're already in the classroom, trying to wrangle your rowdy students — or, perhaps, you're a student trying to make sense of the current lesson.
When lunch time rolls around, do you sit alone? Or do you spot a friend or acquaintance and sit with them?
Anything that would make sense in the context of the school :D

[ He stops, and not just at the handwave. If she's under some sort of prophecy, well, most people don't share the content of prophecies willy-nilly at lunch. It's kinda rude to ask. ]
Everyone always says that. That nobody has any expectations, but they do from the first time they look at you. If they don't, most of them will when they get to know you. So I act like they already expect the worst.
[ A small shrug. ]
Then I don't have to deal with them or their disappointment. This school though - I don't like school. Nothing to do with them.
[ Kinda to do with them, as school makes him feel stupid and provides a great opportunity for crazy adults/monsters to get into positions of power over kids. ]

[Loki starts packing up her lunch, which just means tossing everything into the lunchbox and it mysteriously disappearing regardless of size.]
I could get us out of here. Try a bit of homeschooling.
no subject
I'm not saying I want to stay, but... how are you making it fun? Because you getting us out of here only helps for today. I could get out of here, too, but this will all happen again tomorrow. They know there's no home so there's no homeschooling.

You could also go my route of having your older self shirk responsibility and foist you onto some old wizard and thusly create a home in this realm. There are probably other desperate-to-be-a-father-figure wizards out there, after all.
no subject
No one's going to believe a skeleton is my guardian.
[ His world doesn't need really advanced plotting most of the time. ]
I don't have an older self because I'm not older yet? What does that even mean, and why would I want to move in with an old wizard? The only one I know is already nosy.
no subject
[Also they all just finished multiverse hopping??? There's plenty of weird stuff going on.]
Anyways, I was clearly describing my personal circumstances, not that I actually think you'll follow suit.

[ Nico appreciates that Serrure is trying to help, but sometimes gods are a little godly about everything. While it's probably possible that Hades could've assumed the form of...
No, he is not going to consider that. ]
Why wouldn't I follow suit if it works? If you already had a good idea, I'm not going to waste time trying to think up something better. What I need is someone tolerable but apathetic and lazy, who doesn't cover their eyes at horror movies.

[She doesn't get the issue here???]
Mine wasn't a good idea, it was something I fell into. My idea was to live on my own and construct a fake guardian, but I had protests not from those in power, but from those close to me. You can avoid such things and continue down the fake guardian path.
no subject
[ Nico falters and corrects himself. ]
Modern Greek demigods don't seem to have stories about how their godly parents took the form of a swan. If any of the other kids know about that, they're not saying anything. I try to avoid thinking too hard about it, or about where Athena's thought-babies come from.
[ Or Serrure's horse and wolf. He really doesn't want to accidentally picture anything. ]
If it wasn't a good idea... are you okay?
[ Not a good idea, something I fell into, avoid such things. Even gods get themselves in a pickle. ]
no subject
[She shrugs]
I'm perfectly fine. While I'd rather no cage at all, I can work within this one.
no subject
[ Why couldn’t she stop poking at it so he didn’t have to admit that he can’t do it? ]
Nobody’s ever asked who was taking care of me before. I got to do what I wanted.

The literal Goddess of Lies is assuring you that this will work.
