The School Days Desk is one of the items sitting on the Shelves of Glory behind the Thinking Couch on the Gatorbox set. It was placed there starting with the February 27th stream in the 2026 season. It is a 1972 toy manufactured by Fisher-Price and belonged to Draco when he was very young; it was one of the handful of items stored in his garage that he made certain to find in the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey before allowing clean-up crews to start hauling debris away.

The toy, also known simply as a "Play Desk" on certain packaging variants, features a magnetic front slate that the included letters can be placed onto. The slate also doubles as a chalkboard and it came with several cardboard slats that cover the slate to teach users how to spell common words. Draco's is complete, though as a set prop only the magnetic letters are used due to the coating on the metal slate having become worn with age and moisture damage.

Each week Draco changes the message on the slate, usually to something relevant to the game being streamed. Years prior he received a small light box as a gift from Extra Life and had planned to do something similar with it, however the miniature box was too small to appear in focus on the camera (and became washed out when illuminated), so it was never used as set decoration. There was a COLA Tab redemption planned around the light box that would let viewers "buy" the sign to change its message to something else, however this incentive was not carried over to the Play Desk.
