[Dante's a skywing/icewing hybrid named Raptor in this AU. Primarily Skywing looking with blue eyes and icewing spikes. Neither tribe likes him very much. Details on his backstory are Here.]
1. Dorm Life
Teachers had their own places to sleep, but Raptor knew there would be lots and lots of squabbling among the students. Someone's gonna be displeased with sharing living quarters with other tribes, someone's got a complaint against another's pets, grudges from the war will flare up...all sorts of nastiness. That's why the Skywing's volunteering to be the (metaphorical) adult in the room to sort out any issues as they come and, hopefully, break up any fights before they escalate.
In order to engage a little and help spur friendly chatter among the students, Raptor's approaching and greeting the occasional dragon, whether they're a student or a teacher. "Hey there. You looking forward to classes starting? Everyone's gonna learn something from here; any ideas what you wanna learn?"
2. Class is in Session.
Raptor went ahead and arranged a field trip today to the Rainforest Kingdom, no doubt as part of his ongoing lessons on Pyrrhian culture. The students also got to stretch their wings and fly, something some may prefer over others, but there's a reason for that. After a moment of having his students wait outside, they'll hear the professor's voice calling to them.
"Class! Gather 'round; I got that surprise I've been hyping up." Carefully, the skywing steps through the trees and reveals...sloths. Several sloths either on his head, his spikes or even on his wings. "See these cute little guys? They're sloths. Queen Glory was willing to loan me a few for study on the condition the class be held here instead. Can't drag them too far from home, y'know? And no, you can't eat 'em."
The remark is met with a briefly sharp look before Raptor offers the sloths to the students one at a time, insisting on careful handling and letting the little animals get to know you first.
"They're a Rainwing favorite as pets. They spend a lot of time in treetops and a lot more time sleeping. My kind of roommate. They've shared the forest with Rainwings for a long time...so long that they're pretty comfortable around dragons. They say if you wake up with a sloth on you after sun time, then that one's chosen you and you can keep it."
A pause, then his spikes perk up a little.
"I'm serious about not eating them. Believe me, you're swallowing a hairball if you do. Also Glory would take my head."
