Iiiiit's Monday, and that means it's time for class!

[lucetimods]

Who: All the fine students of Luceti U!
What: IT'S TIME FOR COLLEGE, YO.
When: September 8 - 12th.
Where: All over "campus".
Summary: It's the first week of class for all you wonderful students, both new and old! Enjoy catching up with friends, trying to find your classes, engaging in all aspects of college life, and... let's not forget about the upcoming game.
Rating: PG-13 at best, guys. I know this is supposed to be college but if you're going to engage in the more... racy aspects of college life, take it off-comm!

This is the general catch-all log for the event. You know the drill by now. There's a separate log going up that will be used for Featherbook. Please feel free to use the two logs in tandem with one another. In fact, we encourage it!

"I'm sure." In Jane's experience, gentlemen didn't exist. At least Loki wasn't a total pig. She assumed the blindness was the only thing that had prevented him from making a pass at her already.

She works on the 'small steps', as he calls them, in relative silence other than the sound of her pen on the paper.

"I don't know how beautiful it is... but I think I've got an answer."

"Wow, how about once more with feeling?"

He smiles crookedly. "It's totally beautiful. The world is beautiful, right? Anyway, go for it. What's the answer?"

[searches_forhim]

She wished that she believed the world was beautiful. The parts she'd seen of it had been ugly and painful, but she was working on making it a better place for others. She'd long since given up on it ever being good for her.

"Twenty-seven."

[complicatedliar]

People suck, Jane. The world is pretty damn awesome otherwise, if you ask him.

Loki nods, grinning. "You got it. Well, I got 26.8 but it's a rounding thing. That depends on how many significant figures you need. And don't forget your units. Always always write down your units."

[searches_forhim]

"Units. Right. Because finding the numerical answer isn't hard enough." Freaking physics.

"How do I know how many significant figures I need?"

As for the world sucking, Jane fails to see the distinction. The world is filled with people, and yes people suck, so therefore the world sucks.

Except for Loki, of course. So far he's been pretty cool. She might actually like him a little bit.

"It's just good bookkeeping." Loki laughs. "Like, come on. 27 is an answer, but it's not a useful answer unless you tell me 27 what. 27 apples? 27 meters? 27 rads? 27 millifenigs? It could mean anything."

Ah, significant figures. "Okay... so significant figures are kind of weird. It all depends on how many significant figures were in your original numbers, and then what mathematical operations you did. It's a way to denote the degree of accuracy..." and he'll briefly go over significant figures, which his player will not type out because significant figures were the bane of her existence in uni.

"More like 27 pains in my ass," she mutters as she reads back over the question and puts down the right units.

"Okay, I think I might have a handle on this. Let me try another one on my own with you here if I have a question?"
