I can see on your profile about things you like one of them is Deltarune chapter 1 but what about chapter 2?
Deltarune chapter 1 is an incredible, beautiful, and really cozy game that I have an extremely deep emotional connection with. It’s a wonderful story that just ticks every single box in my head, and I always get a nice warm feeling when I think about it. It has my favorite music. It has my favorite characters. It has Susie and Ralsei’s near-perfect chemistry (they work so well off of each other). It has SUSIE’S FREAKIN’ CHARACTER ARC. It has the freakin’ “Field of Hopes and Dreams” song, my favorite music track out of anything ever. Its story is something I constantly think back to, something that left me as a changed person by the end. Something that I will never forget for as long as I live. There’s so much more than that, and honestly, there’s just no contest. I know no one else in the world feels this way, but… Deltarune chapter 1 is my favorite thing ever.
Deltarune chapter 2 is a phenomenal game that I do not feel emotional about at all. It’s hilarious. It’s got Spamton, the Queen, Noelle, you name it. But none of these characters, nor the areas, nor the music, really made me FEEL as much as chapter 1 did.
That’s all I have to say about that, though. It’s pretty tough for me to ramble about stuff I’m not passionate about. Plus, if I talked any more it’d just be a bunch of half-hearted nitpicks, so…
Deltarune chapter 1 is love, Deltarune chapter 1 is life.
🎵Don’t forget… I’m with you in the dark.

My Love for D&D
‼️‼️LONG POST‼️‼️
I first got into D&D in the year 2020. I got into it through an online friend of mine who told me about "Critical Role".
I was obsessed with "Critical Role" for some time, and my obsession with the show unfortunately kinda- died out because I just simply ran out of time to even watch the show. Considering the length of the episodes and just of the campaigns in general. I really loved it though!
But I went back to consuming TV show content. The stuff I was really familiar with. You know, I was watching my favorites..."Criminal Minds", "Supernatural", "The Vampire Diaries", "Locke & Key", "Stranger Things", etc... The list goes on an on...
But in September of 2022, my love for D&D resurfaced and came to hit me TWICE as hard with the show "Dimension20"!
Now I'm telling you right now. I have now been into Dimension20 for a little bit more than a year, and I've BARELY gone back to watch my REGULAR TV shows. It's-...Dimension20 CHANGED me and the way that I view TV. Dimension20 really is like NO OTHER....just D&D live-play shows in general just HIT a spot that normal TV just...DOESN'T????
I honestly don't even FULLY know how to explain it!
I'd be watching Dimension20 and then try to go to watch "Supernatural" and I'd just make a gross face because "Supernatural"...as MUCH as I LOVE IT and IT'S ONE OF MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE SHOWS! It's NOT COMPLETELY IMPROVISED!!!
I know that the main thing that really got me excited and giddy when it came to regular cinema and TV was being able to find and spot all the improvised moments from the actors that WEREN'T scripted!! Watching those scenes made me SO HAPPY and EXCITED because it's like- these people were REALLY IN-CHARACTER and were able to say something off-the-cuff that got accepted into the final cut because of how GOOD it was!
BUT! I NEVER IMAGINED that there was a type of show where THE ENTIRE THING was just FULLY IMPROVISED AND OFF-THE-CUFF! I think THAT'S what REALLY makes me GLISTEN EVERY TIME I watch a D&D show! There are SO MANY GOOD, RAW MOMENTS that feel SO FREAKING REAL!! But IT'S FULLY IMPROVISED! They didn't DO 20 DIFFERENT TAKES of ONE SCENE! They weren't reading from a script or a teleprompter! They were just...BEING THEIR character that they HAD MADE! And of course no one else could...RePLace(?) them because...they're the one that MADE the character! There's NO other person that could play a character that they had made other than...themSELF?!
Like...in normal TV, You have people getting replaced CONSTANTLY! 1 Example being like...Willy Wonka having like- 3 different actors. Riz Gukgak from "Fantasy High". Only Murph could TRULY play him because he MADE that character! Riz IS Murph to an EXTENT! You know what I mean??
Anyways...that whole idea of the improvisation that happens at a D&D table is...it's something that REALLY makes me PERSONALLY believe that D&D Live-Play shows are the best shows to ever exist. XD Again...that's just my VERY BIASED opinion! LOL!
But it's just-...The FACT that you can STILL get the REAL, RAW, TRUE emotion that you get from watching scripted TV in an UNSCRIPTED D&D Game where people are ROLLING DICE is CRAZY TO ME! But it's---
Another thing is like...you are PRESENT with the PLAYERS?!!! Like- when the Players are scared, YOU'RE scared. When the Players are sad, YOU'RE sad. When the Players are happy, YOU'RE happy! It's- It's a WHOLE OTHER experience! I feel like I don't get that with normal TV. Usually the actor isn't worried about the character before the scene happens because they USUALLY know how the scene will play out BEFOREHAND! They're not FULLY IN the moment? If that makes any sense? Like I know that sometimes the directors and stuff will keep stuff away from the actors but ya know- The actors gotta know at some point...ya know...BEFORE the scene gets filmed! They gotta know what they do before the action happens ya know? That's how TV works
But with D&D...Players DON'T know what's going to happen. They're at the SAME wavelength AS their character! They truly have no clue. They're playing a character and they might know what their characters will do in CERTAIN MOMENTS...but like- They fully don't know what's happening in each scene UNTIL it happens! That's what Improv is basically...
Like...When I was watching Dimension20 "A Crown of Candy"- like- no spoilers but- when the INTENSE moments were happening, I COULD FEEL it in my ROOM! I wasn't even in the SAME ROOM AS the players! But I could feel that intensity IN MY ROOM as it was happening and going down! I was TRULY SWEATING! XD
Because NOT ONLY do the players NOT KNOW what's going to happen...NEITHER does the DM!!! LOL! It's like a Director plotting a whole movie, but he doesn't know what's going to happen fully! That's how I see it! It's just- IT'S SO COOL TO WATCH D&D just HAPPEN!!
And that's the thing is like- Another example. "Fantasy High Sophomore Year". Again...no spoilers but that whole season is ALL THEATER OF THE MIND! It's all just WORDS BEING EXCHANGED AT A TABLE BETWEEN 7 PEOPLE! THAT'S LITERALLY ALL IT IS! But I LITERALLY HAVE MOMENTS IN MY BRAIN THAT I LITERALLY FEEL LIKE I SAW HAPPEN DURING THAT SEASON! Like...It's ALMOST like my BRAIN ANIMATED FANTASY HIGH FOR ME! In a way! Like it's- It's legit like a MOVIE getting MADE INSIDE MY MIND!! It's CRAZY! It's BONKERS! Bananas! I truly get shocked at what my brain does whenever I'm watching D&D! It feels like a fever dream tbh for real! And I just thought that my brain was doing that because we were seeing the battle sets but NO! It happens ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE ARE NO BATTLE SETS TO SEE AT ALL! It's KINDA SCARY! NGL! XD LOL! It be like an audio book except the author and the characters have NO CLUE what's about to happen! Agh! I LOVE IT SO MUCH! TRULY THE ONLY FORM OF MEDIA THAT CAN HAVE ME ON THE EDGE OF MY SEAT THE WHOLE FREAKING TIME! I'll be on the EDGE of my SEAT ONE SECOND, AND THEN CRYING FROM EMOTIONS IN THE NEXT! It's- AHHHHHH!!! My LOVE for this GAME! IT'S SO HARD TO PUT INTO WORDS!!!
Ever since I was a kid, I've ALWAYS wanted a game where I could do ANYTHING I wanted to! I was always NEVER able to find it...until I did...and it's CRAZY how long it has EXISTED for that I DIDN'T know about it! Lol! It's-
I got no words left...I'm in awe- I can't even speak-
I LOVE this game TOO MUCH!

Stop shaming people for being passionate about the things that they love. Stop mocking people for having unusual interests. Like, honestly, I’m so tired of feeling embarrassed for being "too much". If being too much means having deep interests that fill my life with romanticism and excitement, then let me be!! I’d much rather listen to anyone ranting about their latest obsession with 16th century swords than have a boring ordinary conversation with those who shame passionate people.

The reason why causes like the fight against KOSA don't go anywhere is because you fuckers give up too quickly.
You see one advancement from that damned bill and drop your sword and say that it's over.
Wake the fuck up.
If we don't keep fighting, even if it's gone silent for a while, that shit's gonna go through without us even knowing. Fight tooth and nail. Show them that we can and will beat their asses if they don't straighten up. And don't just say we will. Actually do something if it does pass. They think we'll take this sitting down and will just lay there. We need to prove them wrong.
But if we don't get on their asses and lay down like cowards, they'll think they have power. You bitches who say "it was a good run" or "I can't do anything so we're fucked" are part of the problem.
KOSA and KOSA adjacent bills blatantly violate several amendments in the US constitution. People need to realize that.
And if you don't think you have a voice or can't stop it in any way, yes you can. Do research on your rights, don't just get your info from Tumblr or wherever else. Go on and search on your own. Especially if it's something you've seen and you're unsure if it's true.
Misinformation can murder a cause.
You can do things, you just need to find a group.
And don't just keep KOSA online. Tell people you know. Make them care. If they think it's a good idea, change their minds. Don't "agree to disagree."
And don't just not care because you've lost faith. You can still try. And if peace doesn't work, get physical. Get dirty. We've done it for causes like Palestine, we can do it for this.* (read the tags for my elaboration on that- i don't want people getting the wrong idea.)
Organize. Attack. Scream. Make them hear you. Because if we don't, they're gonna take full control.

i actually hate talisa maegyr. i think her whole plot with robb was so stupid. like in the books robb’s marriage with jeyne is this tragic situation that’s really a culmination of the stress and grief that robb has been going through and unable to truly process because he is a child trying to lead his people in a war. he gets injured and then learns that his former best friend has just betrayed him, captured his home, and killed both of his younger brothers which adds to growing list of loss in his life. his father got executed, his sisters are being held hostage, his best friend betrayed him, and now his brothers are dead. so while he’s injured and kind of being consumed by his grief, jeyne westerling is there to comfort him and they do the deed and this only makes things worse because of how robb was raised and instilled with his father’s honor, as well as seeing how jon was raised, robb feels compelled to marry jeyne to preserve HER honor which ends up being his downfall. but nooooo in the show robb falls in love with foreign beauty talisa maegyr and dies because he’s an idiot and couldn’t keep it in his pants. like don’t get me wrong i love robb’s scenes in the show richard madden call me i just think the story could have been so much better and been true to the tragedy that it is in the books.

I miss people using non-medicalized terms for other people's passions
like. well and good to talk about "hyperfixations," "special interests [in the context of an autistic person's favorite subject]," or "infodumping" if you have ADD/ADHD or autism, or are talking about someone who is, but...that's not everyone who feels strongly about something, obsesses, or loves talking about their interests. those words mean specific things, associated with specific forms of neurodivergence
don't assume everyone is comfortable with that language
"rambling" is a word; so is "ranting." "obsession" is a word. "passion" is a word. learn them and use them

Arthur has had a lot of bad close encounters, like Sonny, but sometimes I think we don't talk enough about the whole Edmund Lowry Jr thing.
Arthur was stalked by an absolutely terrifying sadistic serial killer and led to his hideout via multiple mutilated bodies and cryptic clues placed across high traffic areas on the map.
If you choose to find Lowry in his hideout, you will see a gruesome display of many body parts and carcasses strung up like christmas decorations all over the place. Arthur will get knocked out by Lowry after venturing in further and tied to the ground, he will then threaten and taunt Arthur with a knife once he wakes up.
This all happens in the span of like five minutes, and how did Arthur escape? He had to throw a severed head that was on the ground next to him at Lowry. And if being stalked, knocked out, kidnapped, threatened, exposed to a gross display of mutilated bodies, tied up and examined like a piece of meat wasn't enough, Arthur had to save Sheriff Malloy from getting his face bitten off by that sick freak too.
I mean, holy fuck right?
The only justice was being able to shoot Lowry, but he had killed so many people and he took pride in that, shooting wasn't enough. Sadistic is honestly an understatement, it's shown through newspaper clippings in the hideout that he enjoyed toying with his victims for long periods of time before murdering them. An article by the missing poster for a woman named Eliza Bloom in his basement stated that he enjoys his victims like 'trophies' - And Arthur was scarily close to becoming another one of them.
Unsurprisingly, he didn't write about the encounter in much detail.
Tumblr media
"Found the murderer, man named Edmund Lowry. Took him into the sheriff in Valentine after he nearly killed me. He jumped the sheriff. I killed him. Nasty bastard he was."

dolph was always meant to be doomed; something of an analysis
i'm on my third rewatch of captain laserhawk, and on this one i've been focusing more on the little details that you don't get on your first or even second time watching it. i've noticed little things, such as pey'j helping and then going on to shield a hybrid who's dressed similarly to jade in the third episode. but i've also noticed bigger things, such as alex and dolph.
keep in mind that this show is just filled to the brim with political messaging, it was purposefully designed that way. so when someone mentioned on here that alex was an accelerationist, it explained a lot. we don't know much about alex in terms of his backstory, we only know he helped dolph after dolph attempted to mug him and they ended up falling in love. it's also implied that alex and dolph have been repeatedly reported on the news as terrorists more than we've seen, with rayman referring to them as being the usual suspects when the kaiju attack happened, despite dolph literally not even being there when alex did that shit. they're known to do this shit, and we know alex is a charismatic guy. it's not too far fetched to say once or while dolph was falling in love with this gayass white saviour saint that alex talked him into this shit for alex's own purposes. because yes, he has a cause, but he's also a bit in over his head, maybe with power. he's aware of the power he has over dolph, how he actively uses the 'i love you' card multiple times when they're together and when they're not together. he just had a bit too much confidence in his hold over dolph, but to be fair, alex, you were topping some indulgent mob boss for your cause (because let's be honest of course your sources would be tight if they were being fucked for it) then continued fucking said mob boss and got caught with your dick out by your ex who you think you can get back with. alex uses people as tools, he just doesn't put his shit in the right places at the right times.
Tumblr media
i'm getting off track, but the point i'm getting to is that alex most definitely saw dolph, a man who clearly has some jacked up eden tech smacked onto his twink ass, at his lowest, and picked him up like a shiny new toy. he was always going to use dolph. but how come dolph is so easy to use? he's starved for kindness. he's the stray dog that comes up to you at restaurants to act all nonchalant because 95% of the time he gets neglected, but the second he gets offered scraps, he shows how hungry he is. we don't know much about his childhood, and what we do know is under the lenses of literal eden propaganda. we do however know how people get like underneath the hand of eden.
Tumblr media
everyone say thanks to rayman, who concidentally, is dolph's foil. both of them worked under eden as their lap dogs, one as a propagandist and the other as military, but dolph had gotten out of the hold the propaganda had on him while rayman's barely shaking it off. both of them are also portrayed as poor little tragic immigrants and the impoverished stand ins both in universe and story wise. they're the feel good picking yourself up american dream stories that people can feel inspired by or feel proud about the country with. dolph had a photo with a kid holding a doll of him. before he became ex military, he was definitely the guy they paraded around as a previous lost cause that eden helped. red, who's as political as his assigned colour, bitches about identity politics in that one off line for a reason. he also jus hates brown people fr he kicked me down a flight of stairs
now we can assume that dolph had picked himself up out of the propaganda machine somehow. he realised he was used and he didn't want that shit. he's attempting to get himself his own life, for fucks sake. he jus happened to get lead on by the wrong guy, which then lead him to get used by eden AGAIN. this time not only in a physical way via soldier work, but emotionally too, with sarah easily manipulating him with what? a sob story and helping him out, maybe being friendly with him along the way.
he wants a normal life. he wants a goddamn normal life. he jus continues to be selected as a tool.
you can see how fucking starved he is for kindness. you ever think about the fact that in his dream life, he sees jade and pey'j? he knew these people for less than a week, yet they get a place in his dream life. most notably, jade gets a speaking role in his dream life. the only other person who speaks, besides marcus, is alex, someone who had known him and shown kindness to him. jade has also shown kindness to dolph. she's the friendliest face there in the ghosts, being the first one to check on dolph when he wakes up, offers an explanation to him, and also makes an effort to include him in her little shenanigans with the video and all!! dolph was all emo alpha wolf and all, but despite his constant cold shoulder, she was kind!!
Tumblr media
there was someone who was more than kind though; bullfrog. because bullfrog actively looked out for dolph, despite his constant pushback against bullfrogs advice whenever they weren't separated. and in the end, it's bullfrogs kindness and compassion that hits dolph the deepest. dolph gets out of his depressive state to go back for bullfrog. he cares about people, he goes out of his way to do shit for the people who show him the slightest bit of kindness. he backed up sarah after one good conversation with her to marcus for fucks sake. dolph is just a guy who keeps getting used though. he's so loyal to anyone who looks his way that it's a fatal flaw that ends up with his head blown up. he's a shakespearean tragedy at the moment. i hope in the potential season 2 that he gets to have more moments where he gets to be his own person. not defined by an organisation or a person or a cause, but what he chooses to define himself by. he's on his way there. he jus deserves to be allowed to live for himself. after all, he has already met his end of that story. he can make a new one.
anyways if u reached the end of this im down to discuss this :D i also did get a few points from other people on here, but let me know what u think nd all

Saw a post on here talking about how Mario shouldn't be a character, and shouldn't have any depth because "that isn't Mario." And how that's a major flaw of the movie.
Respectfully, I heavily disagree.
I want my favorite character of all time to go through character arcs. I want my favorite character to have more to him than just a simple, jolly man.
Not to say that being simple and jolly is a bad thing. I love Mario in the games as well. But there's always been a part of me that wanted more.
When I saw how the movie handled Mario's character, essentially adding a little bit more depth to him with quite a bit of struggling sprinkled in, it made me so happy.
It was a great surprise to me when I saw the movie, and I absolutely love everything they did with Mario's character.

my  favorite sponge-bob episode
i love spongebob it my favorite show i watched in pretty religiously when we had cable yes i notice the drop in quality you can go on and on how sponge-bob is not good anymore  but i really don’t give a crap i will always love him.
i heard people talk about their favorite it mostly band geek which is great but it not my favorite. it been a while since i seen my favorite so i can’t remember the name but it was just fucked with my mind as kid watching it, it became my favorite.
the episode is where bikini bottom is so fucking windy, that it causing problem. jelly fish are  terrifying sponge-bob cause he make such  a pleasant sound  to the point where he has to hid in a cave, he make these stone statue of him to make the jelly fish leave him and once he do he goes back to the krusty krab. the big fucking twist the krusty krab is gone buried in sand from the windy I’m guessing Spongebob just ask how long was i gone? it just cut to some-else.
now you  may be asking why is it my favorite when i saw i had so many damn question  i saw no one asking how long was spongebob gone, is everyone he ever dead or did they move somewhere else it just never explained. the horror of sponge-bob to realize he been gone for so long that everything he ever knew is gone, the people sponge-bob knew are dead mostly likely  it just so dark of ending just to cut to some else
no one realize how dark this ending was? some say the one where he hide a body is dark it is, the are you happy is just dark but it meant to be taken as a joke. one course meal was dark too but i can’t say no of them is this kind of dark. really think about it for a moment sponge-bob is in this cave alone, it kind implied he going crazy from self isolation for a long time. he figure the problem out only to go back to see the krusty krab it covered in sand, it never said what happened to everyone for we know their fucking dead. Bikini bottom is gone too probably though never said but if the krusty krab is gone then it too is gone too. it so fucking dark i love it
you can say oh it just mean and cruel which yeah i guess, but i see episode that are fucking mean and crueler then this the one were squidward reads sponge-bob diary and torment  him with his weird fear to have no justice in the end of sponge-bob, do we remember how cruel one course meal was!? dear god worst episode by far i seen. then there are you happy which make a fucking suicide joke dear god another one i hate. i know people feel sorry for squidward the  most cause he suffer with sponge-bob annoying behavior, but he has done some really awful thing to him like the april fool one and the diary one while squid-ward has probably suffered the most sponge-bob suffer as equally
what i’m trying to get at there be much crueler thing then this one. it doesn’t really come off as joke to me as some of the other do. it kind of to me at lest to be horrifying and shocking like sponge-bob did i just really like it it one my favorites
i also like the one where sponge-bob become “normal” then the ending to be squid-ward become the normal one was fucking hilarious though i do have some problem i see Spongebob as coded to autistic i see some of my autistic treat in him that maybe why i like him so much i saw me in him. i didn’t even know until i was 18 that i was on this spectrum i had to live without knowing that long.  Spongebob will be autistic to me  cause he has some my traits. to be told to be”normal” is something i often people say about other autistic people when their acting “weird” or the often say “what wrong with you?” is said to thankfully i never heard that toward me cause i guess i hide so much or mask i think it called. anyway for Spongebob who i see is Autistic to be told  be normal for once
it kind hurt me to hear that at the time and i didn’t know why, that when i didn’t know about my Autism. 
anyway wasn’t this suppose to be about my favorite sponge-bob episode? not how autistic people are treated like crap
i love sponge-bob honestly i just have found memory from getting back from school mental excused from being bullied to watch this silly little man do wacky stuff with his friend. just kind of forgetting what happen to me almost

On the string propaganda
Heeellll yeah
Tumblr media
Bestie is an entire PLACE
I look at those guys and let me tell you the soul of that thing ain't just in the puppet, it's in all the neurons carrying the thoughts and emotions, it's in the power rails that serve as the heart. All the memories in the memory conflux and all the numbers we see flicker across displays, the flux condensers, the puppet; a little avatar.
No way these massive machines see life the same way we do. They have their own experiences and senses and things they hold dear. A world we can't imagine, a way of living we couldn't even comprehend.
I could never tear an iterator apart to be just a puppet. Who am I to decide how's life supposed to be enjoyed or perceived?
You treat your creechurs however you want- I ain't gonna dictate that. But damn, hearing the thrums and buzzes of the linear systems rail? They are alive with so much power, these mechanical beasts are exactly what they should be.
#sorry im just a really passionate on the string believer#you cant tell me that these massive structures kilometers wide capable of things we cant even image would look at something thats#thats comparable to a speck of dust and be like#yes i would like to rid myself of practically my entire body to be that tiny#this aint no “if i were a supercomputer i'd be sad i couldnt see the sky like i do now”#thats only because you have something to compare it to#if i were to suddenly loose everything to be just some microscopic creature i'd be miserable but only because i know what im loosing#id be loosing the ability to think like i do now id be loosing the ability to enjoy the things i do now#i dont know what life is like as a microscopic creature but i wouldnt be willing to give up my life as i know it now#and i think with iterators are the same#just how different is their life from ours and what things can they see that we are missing out on?#give up everything comfortable and known and for what??#to feel the sun? they absolutely have various temperature sensors#see the sky? those overseers were made to see things those visuals are in 4k#other animal comforts?? what about computer comforts??#what makes a lil creature happy may not necessary make a massive supercomputer happy#sorry big rant in the tags um just wanna say this is no hate to anyone who wants their creatures off the string#these are fictional beings and you do whatever makes you happy take them off the string set them loose yess enjoy little robots running#around be happy i love reading ya alls off the string shenanigans#rain world#iterator#drawins#oc veil of dreams#rw talk#rain world oc#iterator oc

you have to start reblogging or replying on fics
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I know not everyone is comfy reblogging certain fics due to elements in them, but just reply saying you liked it. Encouragement is the best way to help a person/fandom AND it's just a nice thing to do. There's no kudos system on Tumblr, likes don't do much.
Even if it's the filthiest smut fic I can guarantee you'll give the author a smile saying that you enjoyed the fic in tags or just leaving a nice lil comment

How The Fuck Do Classes At Aguefort Work
AKA Brennan gave me a number of students for this school and I am going to use my expert knowledge of being a teacher in real life to extrapolate things
(disclaimer: i am australian and thus my knowledge is limited to the australian school system of how things are arranged, number of students in each class, etc. this is basically how I would organise aguefort if it were up to me)
SO
aguefort has approximately 500 students split across four year levels, making for about 125 per year level, which you could easily split into 5 'homeroom' classes of about 25 students each. Or 31-32 if you wanted to squish them into 4.
But the thing is, we have all the DND Classes to think about, with each class having its own dedicated teacher and specialist class. There are 12 standard dnd subclasses, plus we know that artificer is also an option, making 13.
It's unlikely that any particular year level has all of its students evenly split between those classes (it would be an average of 9-10 per class if they did, which is quite small for a single class, but not unheard of for (using a real life example) elective subjects like business or design tech)
ADDITIONALLY, we do know that 'regular' classes exist at aguefort, like history and home ec, so I'm assuming other typical subjects like maths, english, science (perhaps broken down into chem/bio/physics, maybe not), maybe PE as well for students that aren't part of one of the martial classes, among other things.
Most likely, the school day is arranged so that each student (assuming this student has a typical workload, AKA nothing absolutely bonkers like what the bad kids are doing in junior year) has at least one Class-Specific class per day, and then some general education ones as well, and then perhaps some more adventuring-focused classes like survival + archery or arcana.
That way each class-specific teacher should be able to fit one lesson with each year level a day, because those classes are probably considered far more important than like. Modern History.
DND-Class classes are likely much smaller and more individualised, and then general ed classes would be with a far bigger group.
I also think Aguefort has a lot of composite classes! Particularly for the less popular Dnd-Classes. Freshman+Sophomores together and then Juniors+Seniors together is probably the most common.
I think sorcery classes are often composites, partly because its one that students Literally have to be born to be able to do, so its not one that other students can multiclass Into, so its numbers probably fluctuate a bunch depending on the cohort.
More technical classes like artificer are probably also composites! Simply because I bet they're less popular than things like Fighters, Rogues, so on.
Bards are also absolutely composites, because they are already split within themselves with multiple teachers depending on the students particular focus (like we did with a separate Music class and Dance class with different bard teachers). So I wouldn't be surprised if some bard classes contain freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors all within the one class and still only have like, ten students total because they're that specialised.
I think combined classes also probably happen on a fairly regular basis. Esp if like, teachers call in sick. The fighters will go join the barbarians for a day, or the clerics will join the paladins.
And then of course they don't actually give a shit if you show up to your classes or not so theres probably some poor admin staff out there who painstakingly arranges every schedule at the start of each semester and then 80% of students ignore half of it anyway
