Sure. I'd recommend we avoid blood-related abilities as much as we can; blood pollution in this place is bad enough without injecting it directly into the deep earth.
[That would just be irresponsible to do, like, knowingly? Ridiculous. Anyway, what was that other thing he heard...]
[ falco can't help his following response, lips tucked and smile spreading smoothly. from experience, falco knows it's probably good. anything was better than home, which was hardly a "school" and more preparation to perform specific, child-hazardous tasks. the robbie middle school in california hardly counted; he did much more snooping than actual studying there.
going to a real school was a dream come true, and he doesn't shy away from his enthusiasm to add, almost meekly: ]
What are they teaching there? Novice Blood Morphs?
[That's not a joke, he took that class back home. That's a real guess. Anyway, he's already a criminal on the school grounds for stealing a chalkboard, but...]
It's been a while, but I'm persistently good at preparing for exams. You know, if you two need any tips when it comes time for exam season.
[Which surely this school has? Defying all expectations, he doesn't care one whit about the school here, but surely it has a Dedicated Exam Season embraced with delight and humility, like normal schools. "Normal."]
[ falco's never been to proper school, but he has been educated, if that's something. alas, on topics that one wouldn't generally find in school for children: field survival. guerrilla tactics. basic first aid. shooting. math. weapons assembly and disassembly. mapping. hiking. eldian and titan biology. yeah . . .
he nods, feeling rather happy. ]
I have study discipline. [ if he studies, he'll go well. that won't be a problem— but there're also subjects he's possibly never heard of. ] It would be good to have your help with everything, Palamedes.
Sure, whatever I can do. I won't be much help with the specifics of history here, if they're going to teach you that sort of thing.
[Unless he spends a weekend in the library; but he has other priorities at the moment, so that might take him a while.]
Either way: you two are welcome to come here and do your work, if that horrible Archive in Gaze becomes too much of a bother. [unbiased.] Our own little archive is... quieter.
I don't think anyone's organized those . . . In a while. [ hard same, gang. ] If we need something from there, we can always bring it back here, can't we?

You two are going to school?

[He has them, sure - but that doesn't mean he can use them.]
... We're going to try going to classes at the school. See how we feel about what they're teaching there.
[He has his doubts, but... it's better than no school, probably.]

I'm very good at taking notes, if you ever need help with that.

[They've all got priorities. And while Jun's have him in the library often, history's not his favorite subject.]
And way better organized. Seriously, the Archives drive me up the damn wall...
[He's getting mad just thinking about it.]

[ he gives jun a quick reaffirming glance. ]
Especially things on the rocks and fossils.
