Lana FPE: Sock Puppets, Abbie, and a Scene You Can Play

Grey paper, a ponytail with one cowlick, and a puppet on each hand. Lana comes to a class she cannot pass, and the thing everyone remembers is the oreos she will not share. Here she is — and here is the classroom you can walk into.

Three numbered paper choices across the bottom of the screen: ask Lana for one, sit with Abbie, watch the sock puppets

Lana in her tense sprite, clutching the oreo pack, with Abbie's line on screen and three choices below

Lana at the centre desk with both sock puppets raised, their lines in the dialogue box

Righty leaning in with the classroom behind, three choices waiting under the dialogue box

Lana alone at the centre desk, both sock puppets up, the dialogue box open on her first line — **Lana · Paper School** — Fourth period, and the pack is already open.

Lana with both puppets raised while their lines fill the dialogue box and three choices wait — **Lefty & Righty · Paper School** — Lefty has a plan called no. Righty has one called share one.

Abbie and Claire at the edge of the classroom while Lana sits between them and the dialogue names each speaker — **Abbie & Claire · Paper School** — Abbie tries diplomacy. Claire tries being optimistic.

Abbie mid-sentence, hands up, with ∆lice's black silhouette in the doorway behind him — **Abbie · Paper School** — Abbie makes the case with both hands, and ∆lice listens from the door.

The doorway scene: Lana in her guard sprite holding the pack, Lefty's speech in the box, three choices below — **Lefty · Paper School** — Lefty gets the floor, and Lana thanks him like it costs her something.

The One Each ending card over the afternoon classroom, with all four characters still in frame — **Ending · One Each** — She shares on her own terms. The puppets call a truce.

The Half of Half ending card with Abbie and Claire in the warm classroom light — **Ending · Half of Half** — Abbie negotiates himself down to half of half.

Miss Circle at the door with the compass, ∆lice behind her, the ending card over the darkened room — **Ending · The Compass Remembers** — Miss Circle takes the pack, and the room goes quiet.

Miss Circle with the compass and ∆lice at the open door, three paper choices waiting under the corridor — **Paper School: The Door at the End of the Hall** — Second scene, same world: the corridor after fourth period.

Why Lana gets a classroom, not a wiki page

A character page can tell you Lana is dead. It cannot show you why she is remembered: a girl who brings puppets to a school where the teachers are worse than the grades. Studio keeps her as a character material — grey paper skin, the ponytail, a puppet on each hand — and Paper School as a location material, so every new scene starts with the same Lana instead of a new grey girl in a hallway. The scene publishes as a playable work with its own link, and the next scene still has her in its world.

She stays on model — Lana's cover is the reference for every sprite in the scene — the flat grey face, the cowlick, the stitched trousers, both puppets. Dialogue, a choice and an ending all use the same drawing of her.
The classroom is a place — Paper School is a location material with its own desks, chalkboard and grey light, so a corridor scene and a classroom scene belong to the same building.
Choices that reach an ending — Every beat ends on two or three paper choice buttons, and the scene carries three endings — a warm one, a negotiated one, and one where Miss Circle looks up.

Questions before you play

Who is Lana in Fundamental Paper Education?

A Paper School student in Kaaatie's hand-drawn web series, introduced in the opening roster with Claire, Engel, Bubble and Abbie. She is the one with a sock puppet on each hand.

Why does Lana wear sock puppets?

They are her design and her voice: two puppets with googly eyes, one per hand, and she talks through them. The series never explains it, which is why it reads as a kid hiding behind a puppet rather than a costume.

Is Lana dead in the series?

Yes. She is murdered off-screen, and a piece of paper with ∆lice's symbol is drawn beside her body. This scene does not replay that — it plays the classroom before it.

Who is Abbie to Lana?

Her only real friend, and another student who does not follow the lesson. They are paired in the opening episode, and the pairing is the warmest thing in the show.

Can I play a scene instead of reading one?

That is the point of the page. Describe the moment — the oreos, Abbie arriving late, Miss Circle asking a question she cannot answer — and the Adventure Game skill builds it as a playable scene with choice buttons and endings.

Does the scene keep her design right?

Lana is a character material with her own cover: grey paper skin, long grey ponytail with a cowlick, no neck, grey tee over black sleeves, stitched trousers, a puppet on each hand. The sprites are drawn from that reference.

Can I build a scene with Claire, Miss Circle or ∆lice instead?

Yes. Name the cast in the prompt. Each of them is a character material in the same world, so a Miss Circle corridor scene and a ∆lice door scene sit next to Lana's classroom.

Is this official FPE content?

No. It is fan-made from the public description of the character. Fundamental Paper Education and its characters belong to Kaaatie — do not sell it as official.

One line about the moment you want, and Paper School opens with Lana already at her desk.
