"That's a lot of what we're gonna be doing a lot of, Fumina-san. You all might be used to writing essays in other literature classes, or pop quizzes to check your knowledge of the material. We ain't gonna be doing that here, really. Instead, we're gonna be interested in what makes a good story. I wanna turn you all into half way decent storytellers."
Renmaru gives the class a small smile as he twirls a piece of chalk through his fingers. "Yeah, the elements that make a good story and how to incorporate em into your writing. So, that means we'll be parsin' through lots of the classics. Hantei Genji Monogatari and some of the classic plays."
"So let's start off with an easy question. Any one wanna name the first part of the five act structure?"

Oh! I know, I know! Of course Reiha is not brave enough to raise her hand, so what does it matter?

Ryoko paused then stood slowly, bowing to Renmaru sensei. Once the little Phoenix is called upon she answered rather oddly. "If one doesn't know if something is true, shouldn't they stay silent?"
She immediately realized how that sounded and face palmed at herself before using that hand to blush behind it. "G-gomen, sensei. I.. think it's the exposition but I don't know for sure that I'm right."

"Well, I want ya all to speak up if you know the answers. You;re right though, Ryoko-san. Exposition is first. Tell me about what the exposition is."
He takes his chalk and rights the kanji on the board, drawing a line under it.
