WHO: Study/Tutoring Club + Game Club!
WHAT: Mingle Time, Babey!
WHEN: Throughout December
WHERE: Rooms 3-A and 1-B respectively!
WHY: Wouldn't you like to know, weather boy
Warnings: TBA


Hey guys! Have a combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell Study Club and Game Club mingle! This is just to help me keep everything mainly in one spot for the most part, since Senku is in charge of both clubs! But, of course there's quite a few things happening in both clubs:

STUDY/TUTORING CLUB

With Finals Week looming ever closer, there's definitely a big boom in students showing up for this club in specific! Everyone's got their own ways of cramming for Finals, so maybe going through your notes a few times with fellow students and study buddies might help you get a leg up on your grades, and that test anxiety! Don't worry- you're not alone in this.

GAME CLUB

Anyone like TTRPGs? Well, you're in luck! Game Club is looking for a few students interested in being part of a Dungeons and Dragons campaign! Who's the DM? Why, none other than club president Senku himself! He's mostly looking for interest before diving too deep into campaign details just yet, but let him know if you'd be down for it!

I will say, Game Club will NOT meet during Finals Week itself, just to make sure people focus more on studying and getting those good grades! So please make sure that prompts don't take place during the 20th-24th! It'll come back a few days after Christmas just to let everyone breathe after that stressful week.

With all of that out of the way, please feel free to make your own posts and top-levels! Make sure to specify what club it's for too so people don't get too confused! Thanks!!!

[Lucifer is here to assist!]

Let me see. [A pause, as he looks over the work, and then corrects gently,] Almost, but not quite. You have a decimal point in the wrong place here. You might have written it wrong on accident.

[I'm just assuming they're doing math. Horrible really.]

[miirai]

I see...

[There's a keen determination in her voice as she glances it over--aha, so she did.]

Let me fix that real quick... there. I'll have to make sure to double-check when I'm doing the real tests. Thank you, sir.

[carpevinum]

You're quite welcome, but it isn't a problem. If you have anything you'd like to go over in preparation for the exams, do let me know.

[He's using this time to grade a stack of homework from his history class, and also to be helpful.]

[miirai]

I'd like to go over as much as possible! I want to do my best for these exams...!

[There's bright determination in her eyes, determined.]

[carpevinum]

I admire your enthusiasm, truly. What year are you in, exactly? I can help you more effectively if I know what's expected of you.

[Just so there's no mix-ups or confusion here.]

Or, if you could show me some homework or practice exams you're struggling with, I can assist you there as well.

[miirai]

I'm a first year student, sir. Although the work here is definitely more difficult than what I'm used to.

[But she's enthused about it. Enough that she goes through her school bag and takes out some of the papers that she's been working on as well as past exams--there are some things that she's been struggling with due to her age, but she's been basically coasting.]

[carpevinum]

I understand. Let me give you some tricks I used to use on my little brothers to help them absorb the material, then.

[First — he has to look over the papers and past exams to get an idea. Mistakes and flaws in logic are easy to spot when you're this old, though, and soon enough Lucifer takes out his own notebook to scrawl down some ideas for how to run through all of this.]

Alright. From the looks of this, you're doing quite well. I picked out a couple of areas that you appear to be struggling in, and I've also written down some practice equations for us to walk through together.

[He turns his little notebook to her to show an equation he's written as neatly and clearly as possible — Lucifer's handwriting is normally pretty indecipherable.]

To start, you know your order of operations, yes?

[miirai]

Thank you.

[She answers as politely as she can, nodding as she looks at the practice problems. There's definitely a sense of relief at being taught how to do things, especially things that are much more difficult for her skill level.]

And yes, I do. Are there any common mistakes that I should be keeping an eye out for?

[carpevinum]

I think the most common mistake with the order of operations specifically, one that I often see, is that people forget when multiplying two negative numbers together, that they will become a positive number.

[I fucked this up on high school algebra so many times it's embarrassing]

You want to pay very close attention to your signs.

[miirai]

Mii. I see... how can you make sure they're two negative numbers and not two minus signs?
