Ricardo walks to his classroom from the staff access and opens the door, as he does so, a multitude of softly glowing blue eyes stare back from the black void of the room, greeting him with their silent vigil in the mere seconds before he turns on the lights, revealing the sources of illumination to be the status lights of a small library of various documents. Each bookshelf was an ultra-modern mechanical unit with housed relevant documents in a system that functionally resembled a cross between a conveyor belt and a carousel. The files were organized not in alphabetical order but by content and characteristic. The room had the isolated, sterile feel of a medical institution, like an empty emergency ward barren of all life, of all activity, just a structured void of total order. Then, a near silent cacophony of sound broke the conceptual void of audible perception that reigned within the room. The bookshelves, previously arranged in a replication of how a computer database would be organized, glide across the floor into their respective niches in the walls which spontaneously formed. Floating, legless desks, ground-tethered chairs and a progressively higher series of platforms rose from the ground, forming a configuration that perfectly emulated a scaled down lecture hall whilst Ricardo placed his brief case onto one of the free-floating desks that moved in rigid holding patterns on the stage. The student access door unlocks and the people outside are permitted entrance into the room, the familiar setup that they witnessed the first lesson and every subsequent lesson was there as per usual.

Victoria walks to the class and stands next to Selina.

Darnos hardly blinks as he walks in, though his head does tilt slightly.
He sits down in a seat near the center of the class.

Selina sits at the back of the class with Victoria, a little nervous in the room normally.

"Well, what can I say, I guess I'm just used to hospitals and what not..."

"Good morning, all, I presume you all have the essays I set for homework?"

Victoria sits down next to Selina, smiling sweetly.

Selina nods, pulling out her essay. She hoped it was okay, she had spent a long night working on it. (68) It was a C+ atleast.

((Atleast in canada thats a C+))

"English is a tool, but  it's also a livin' thing. It changes, it breathes. It's more personal than any scalpel."

"Ah yes, a perfectly logical assumption that the concept of an educational institution and the existence of classes are mutually exclusive... regardless, I am paid to teach and care. I am not paid to ensure that people do their homework."

Victoria takes out her essay. As per usual, it was quite sophisticated and as per usual, Ricardo would be slightly irritated by how it manages to interpret every single literary technique as a representation of death, suffering or something equally depressing.

"The way I see it, school teaches you what matters before it matters. Takes off some of the pressure when you start needin' to know it or die."

"Yes, Professor Nikki has already explained your, extraneous circumstances to me."

"You can hand in your essays at the end of the lesson. Today, we shall be starting a new topic and hence I shall present an introductory lecture..."
The lights dim and focus on the stage. "This new topic is post-structuralism and semiotics, to put it simply, post-structuralism is the literary and academic idea, that the composer can go fuck themselves. It may be considered as an application of semiotics in a literary manner. Let's explain it via example, shall we?" The projector produces, in large block letters, the word 'cat' onto the screen behind Ricardo. "What is the definition of cat?"
