She looks at him, then leans in and hugs him again
"Thank you..." she says. It's a softer hug and thank you than before

The zebra bat creature thing is hugged.
When Solar Night hugs her, she presses into him with more strength, and seems to enjoy the contact, as she does not break off until she has to.
Solar Night and Lunar Nadir are not registered for classes, and they have pending tuition payments due soon.
Solar Night needs a class schedule

“I mean… have you seen my father? She is legally still married. She has no second income besides my sister’s entry level job, she doesn’t get a pension, abs age can’t remarry. She has to take care of us and the house all by herself. She’s not taking it well.”

It’s another office and paperwork. This is where Solar Night chooses his class schedule. He can decide which classes he wants. Just say what Dark Star wants and we can discuss it

She pulls herself off of him, and moves away. She looks at him with ears perked straight up, and narrowed slit pupils.
“Uh…. Only a little….”

“Um… I don’t really know. I kind of want to just experiment with things. Most of what I’ve heard is ‘you have to do this for a job’. Work the docks or cut jute or type memos or work in a factory. I don’t want to learn just for a job. I want to know things that don’t make money.”

Her lips are back as she hangs onto Dark Star's every word
"Yes, yes. I shouldn't try to work for a rich industrialist. Not in their factories, not in their offices. They don't care. But I care. I care about more than just pouches."
She nods along

"Yeah they should..."
She seems at once grave at the message being told, and happy for its messenger

"Yeah..." She seems almost dazed by the talk. "We should do something about it. Creatures here seem pretty active pushing for change." She stands back up again
"But uh... let's go get set up for class."
Her mood picks up rapidly after saying this, and she is darting about again.

She stops to look up at him, before scurrying through. It's worth noting that otherwise, she tends to follow just behind him, and usually a little to the right following almost like a dog.
The registration office is actually quite a bit like the admissions office, though a guidance counselor is available for questions about course choices.

The guidance counselor is a female Pegasus of a very light orange color. She must be over 40, but has preserved her looks very well.
"Well hello" She says with a sanguine tone and smile. A secretary has already pulled Solar Night's file
"Are you just starting, or is this your second semester?"

She turns to her on a swivel chair. This is in her office, with a window to the hall and the door open
"Hello." She says, smiling awkwardly, both happy and shy
The mare says,
"Well, in the first two years you'll mostly be working on your distribution requirements. Literature, History, a math and a science class, and a humanities and social science. But you'll also want to be working towards a major."
Nadir remains silent, and with a glance of her eyes seems to suggest she wants Solar Night to go first.

She nods
"Okay, there is a class at this time... and one at this time." She is looking at a paper.
"Hippology counts as a social science. Philosophy is a liberal art. You are also going to need history and literature classes."
She looks over to him
"What are you thinking of majoring in?"
She nods

"Political Science. Okay, that's a fine major. Well, let's see... okay, there is a higher level course in Equestrian Literature that focuses on legends and myths. Huh. Well that's a Literature class. But it won't count for your distribution requirements. You are allowed to take a higher level course though. Not many, maybe one. I would still advise taking either a history class, math, or art.

“Well, in Art it’s like early Equestrian paintings, Religious Sculptures, or Griffonian Romanticism. Higher level classes in all departments are classes that count towards a Major or a Minor in that field, but will not count towards the general distribution requirements.”

She nods,
“It’s best to take introductory courses to get them out of the way. Now, you will be required to take Equestrian History and Equestrian literature at some point, as well as something like hippology, philosophy, or political science.”

“Alright. Equestrian History to 400, Political Systems, Introduction to Philosophy, Introduction to Hippology, and Equestrian Myths abs Legends.”
It is done. Nadir goes next. She picks several classes that Solar Night has picked, but also Chemistry.

She decides she will take Philosophy and Hippology with Dark Star, as well as a class in Chemistry and in Literature. She protests against taking Equestrian History, and asks if she can take a different history class instead. After she is told that she must take two classes in Equestrian History to graduate, she decides to take the class with Solar Night.
And she is done.

The counselor tells the two,
“Good luck on your respective journeys. What happens here will shape the future. Yours, and the World’s.”

And Solar Night is now set up.

“Yes!” Her wings are partly unfolded.
“I don’t know of anyone in my family… not that I have much family, but you know what I mean, who have gone to college. Not many ponies in Del Manantial, or the village, or really even that I know in Baltimare have gone to college. It’s all about going to work at a warehouse or store or something. That’s what I did much of last year. But I wanted to do something more. I didn’t think it could happen because I wasn’t smart enough, I didn’t have good enough grades. My family isn’t established or well respected or anything. But here I am. Here I am.”
She’s actually kind of breathing heavily by the end, probably because she is about to cry.

>tfw no hybrid bat-horse gf
"I…oh." It slowly clicks into place. Amber had assumed Mrs. Dahlia was a widow from the shrine and her husband's absence. But if he was a POW, he can be considered to be still alive, and various legal benefits that come with being a widow don't apply.
"I see what you mean. So she's worried about Veneer marrying and her husband tragically disappearing?" she asks, her ears folded back.

“It can happen, yes. Just get pregnant outside of marriage, and if the stallion doesn’t want to take care of the foal, then good luck forcing him to.
I don’t know, really. I don’t know what Veneer does. I know she goes out with friends. I know she drinks sometimes. She definitely looks like she’s trying to look pretty for someone. But I have never seen her with a stallion. I don’t ask her what she does, and she doesn’t tell me. I think my mother takes what she knows, and assumes the worst.”

She thinks about how it can be that a mare can get pregnant without both parents wanting the foal. She'll have to ask Mustard how it works sometime.
"It frankly seems mean that she gets treated like that. It's much better to assume the best of everypony, don't you think?"

“She is pretty mean a lot of the time. And honestly, I think if she didn’t need Veneer’s help with money, it would be worse than it is.”
He turns his head,
“I don’t know that she’s wrong though. The thing is, if she’s wrong, then she’s been cruel to her own daughter for no real reason. But if she’s right and she doesn’t stop it, her daughter’s life could be ruined, her grandfoal’s lives could be ruined, and she could look like a bad parent for failing to stop it. I don’t know. I don’t like it either.”

She puffs her chest up, with glowing happy eyes, and an open mouth. Solar Night can see small fangs.
“D’awwww! Thank you Solar!”
She leans in and hugs him back. It’s a pretty tight hug, and she doesn’t break it quickly.

Amber doesn't know what to think, if Mustard can't tell whether his own sister is "rough" or not. Although her own experience with the family has been positive, it has some serious problems.
"What if I made friends with her and kept tabs on what she's doing? Then we could know for sure," she suggests in a hushed whisper.

“I’m sure she’d love to go out to clubs like the one we were at last night, or talk to you about….. things I suspect you’d like to talk about, just because you’re a filly. I’m sure you could find out if she got past her envy of you. But I don’t want to know. I am afraid of the answer.”

"Remember how suspicious you were of me last night?" she whispers. "I think it's your ma rubbing off on you. I'd like to put your fears to rest."
