Random Powerloader HC time!
(bc i havent done this for a while and the brainrot for the gremlin is strong rn he is rattling around brain like a marble in a glass bottle /lh)
He keeps legos in the development studio.
He has other things too-
Altogether he has a rather big box of lego, some sketchbooks/colouring books, a box of fidget toys, puzzle boxes, etc.
The reason behind this is so that his students can, at any point in the day, utilise this box and play/relax/calm down with whatever they choose.
Whether they are feeling burnt out, can't get something right, or a design isn't going well- if they're stuck in a block and can't move past it, feeling overwhelmed or overstimulated from anything, if they're feeling stressed from studying or tired or just need a break.
He very openly talks to his students about this and explains that taking breaks is just as important as working. Especially as they are creating and designing things, burn out can happen so easily and it's better to let themselves rest so that their creations can be made more smoothly and easily.
He constantly offers an ear to listen if they need it and of course, advice if that's what they need too.
He has been told by some in the past like. "oh, but why do you need that? they're highschool students, not little kids, they should not have distractions- they should be working-" and to that he just gives a simple lil fuck you <;3 and carries on :)
It's not only the students that use it! Higari often will sit down between classes and just make things out of lego or sketch out some random designs for fun!!
You can sometimes find teachers popping into the studio to borrow a few of the things to take a break or pass the time.
Oh! And if the students make things out of lego at any time, he always asks if they can show him or leave it on his desk (if they want) so he can see it and add it to their lil picture book of creations :]
So yeah. Legos and lil toys and things to help the students whenever they need it.
He loves his kids and will do anything for them
He is The Supportive Support Course Dad(tm)
