There were a few different things that Orpheus could have done with this class he'd gone over them, plotted, planned, and then set up. Now the classroom was awaiting his newest student Canti, an any boy. This class should prove to be interesting as they were going to be working on a combination of two skills the boy should have: Climbing and Stinging. The stinging sounded a bit more like biting to him then stinging though, must just be that ants and bees stung differently was all.
The class was simple enough and he was sure after a short explanation his student would be able to get it done.

He couldn't remember ever being so excited before. His first class all to himself! Practically dragging Lucas along to D-Corp, the ant boy hadn't failed to keep the air filled with chatter about what he would do for this class, how he hoped the teacher liked him alright. He was flattered by the thought that he was unique enough to have his own lesson, something the brunette guardian had tried to stress upon him in hopes of stopping his initial panicking. Things were up and down now, gathered the photographer, but mostly his child seemed optimistic. Hopefully this was a nice and patient teacher, for he knew how slow Canti could be at things like book work.
The noise died abruptly upon reaching the classroom, just as if a switch had been flipped off. The door to the class would be opened by the latex-clad hands of Lucas, the other nudging the boy encouragingly into the room. Canti trundled along compliantly now, but his limbs gathered themselves a little closer to his abdomen, antennae lowering. He still had some shyness in him, it seemed. Four gleaming eyes glanced about for signs of his teacher, a soft 'Hello?' echoing from the the shining shell of his mouth. He couldn't help looking over the classroom itself either, curiosity creeping its way into his system.

Hearing a voice Orpheus abandon his position by the trees he had the been leaning against, taking notes and headed towards where he'd heard them coming from. He gave a smile when he spotted the any boy that was going to be his student today, "Hello Canti and... Canti's Guardian." He really should take note of the parent's names too but the students were more important in his mind being a teacher, "How are you both today?"

Canti had never been great with adults as far as asserting himself went. With children, or peers close to his own age? That was fine- he was good at being more of an emissary. But grown-ups were a whole different creature to him, and when Orpheus presented the question, for a long while Canti's answer was. "Uhm mmm uh..." and so on.
His guardian wasn't too much better, obviously planning on being a fly on the wall up until the teacher addressed him. Hazel eyes blinked a couple times before he realized there were no words coming from he or the child to distract the man.
"Lucas, Lucas Fasane," He managed softly after a moment, looking a little embarrassed as he attempted a tight smile towards the teacher. "I think that we're fine this evening. Canti is very excited to be attending your class today, Mr. Solon."
That seemed to help the ant, who offered a shy smile that wasn't without warmth. Lifting his little antennae, a clear indicator as to what his mood was doing, he nodded a bit more confidently. "I am happy to be learning what you are teaching! I... I work hard for you!" This seemed to be a promise, for he looked quite determined afterwards, turning his head in the general direction of the trees. He was very different from some other children in the fact he could see in a large 180 in front of him where other children had to turn their eyes or heads.
"Be careful," Lucas advised the boy, also looking towards the trees. He was worried- he had failed to tell Orpheus that much. Canti wasn't in a right mind when he was working, at least not in his opinion.
Looking back to Orpheus, he said, "Should I leave you now? He shouldn't be any trouble to you, but if he is, you can tell me. I'm sure you have the phone numbers there where I can be reached..." This was awkward for him. He looked towards the teacher for any instruction as to what he was to do next.

Orpheus watched as the boy trotted off towards the direction of the trees before he turned for a moment to look at Lucas, "Its up to you. Some parents stay while others go, it doesn't bother me either." He said.
He turned then back to where his student was so he could follow after him. He didn't mean to leave the man alone but he needed keep an eye on Canti and get him going with the class that was set up for him, "Alright, today we are going to be working on a combination of two things Canti." He said as he caught up.
He looked up at the trees and in the branches hung some brightly colored branches, "Up there, you see the balloons? Some of them contain small spheres, other ones contain whip cream but you can't tell which without popping them." He started, "The first part of your class is working on your climbing skills, ants are able to scale any surface did you know that? Now once your up there the second part of the class starts, you have a special bite called 'stinging' that you will use on the balloons to pop them. You need to find three sphere in the balloons to win."
He paused to see if the ant boy understood.
