Hi everyone! :3 My name is Meilin Lee, but you can call me Mei! \o/ Nice to meet you!

So I've been here for like a month (wow!) and I've noticed one super huge important thing this place is missing.

SCHOOL.

Okay so hear me out : I know school isn't like FUN fun for everyone, but! Look at how many posts with people asking to be taught things or offering to teach people things? Plus, us newbies still need to know how to work all this dream energy emotion stuff, and it'd kinda be nicer to do it in a classroom setting instead of when I'm running for my life from a noctare.

Plus, what if when we wake up our minds are all tired and goopy from lack of knowledge? We gotta keep our brains energized!

Here's what we need for a good school -
A building with lots of room
Desks
Lockers
Chalkboards + chalk
Bookshelves
Teachers

There's probably a bunch of other stuff too but this is a work in progress! We should all work together on ideas to make this happen! I know we like a lot of money for it (and I still think it is SUPER WEIRD that dreams need money???) but maybe if we all pitch in a little at a time it'll all come together!

I'm open to any and all ideas!!!! I hope you all have a great day!!!! :DDD

It's quite extensive as well, so it should cover anything you need, subject wise.

I can speak to the owls about using the space. I think I'm on good terms with them

[More or less]

[judicialassistant]

It definitely has a relaxing atmosphere. I have been thinking about how I should contribute, but I haven't decided what I want to write yet.

Have you met any noctaere here, Mei?

[refire]

It's nothing you need to thank me over. I just want to do my part. Seems like the only thing I can do is carry heavier loads.

Do you have someone managing more complicated tasks already?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

It's where you store stuff like your books and lunch and other supplies between classes! That way you don't have to carry EVERYTHING as you go about your day!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

I bet school would be lots of fun with you there though!

[ pweeeease mammon? ]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Exactly! And when we get lonely about our friends, we can still talk about them. I'd love to learn about Tomoyo!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

That all sounds really great! I'd happily take them all!

But you'd better challenge me when it comes to mathematics. I'm in AP Math back home!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Let the owls know I'll do anything to help! If they put me to the test, I can pass it with an A+!

[ Only after the message is sent does she realize what's being said. They have to... speak to owls...??? ]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ the last time she drew something, her mom created the most mortifying moment of her life, so.... just gunna... ignore that... ]

What kind of groups? What's school like in your home?

[angelbirth]

Does the AP stand for Advanced Placement? Either way, I'm sure I can manage to challenge you.

[ If he can't, he'll turn in his demon card because a teenage human girl better not be outdoing him in math. Or any other subject he takes at RAD, for that matter. That would just be embarrassing. ]

Not just in math, either. Learning isn't exciting when it's not challenging, after all. So don't worry, you'll have a challenge, even if it means I have to think up an individualized plan for you.

Out of curiosity, if I may ask, why the love of learning?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ ah. um. oof. that's a big subject change, as far as Mei was concerned, as her first noctare experience was... not good. ]

Yes. Yes I have.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

So far I've got eager students and teachers, and maybe even a classroom! It's a small start, but every single step counts!

[judicialassistant]

[ The subject change didn't come out of nowhere, she promises! It's not like Susato's experience with them has been great, either... Has anyone's? ]

I'm sorry. Specifically the archives wish to document how Songerein operates, which unfortunately includes nightmares and the monsters born from them.

[ ......Maybe she does know how she can contribute. ]

Has anyone told you about the Dawn flowers yet?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ because mom. ]

Why not? To me, I don't get how people DON'T love learning! This is the basis of our future.

[iracorn]

I don't think you'll need to go that far. They just run the library.

But I'm sure they'll appreciate the enthusiasm.

[It makes perfect sense.]

[refire]

It's a huge project. You'll need every helping hand you can get.


Manual labor is about all I can do unless you'd allow someone to teach swordsmanship.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ NOTHING HERE MAKES SENSE ]

If I can ask - do you have like special owl powers or can they talk to anyone?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ more flowers and less things that try to kill her, please! ]

No, I haven't heard of them! What kind of flowers are they?

[indolentaxe]

[Oh, she's one of thooooooose.]

If you say so.

What kinds of subjects are you even looking to have?

[Look, just because she's not interested doesn't mean she isn't nosy.]

[multidisciplinary]

[ Oh, like a locked chest! That makes sense. "Locker" must be some kind of nickname for these personal storage chests. ]

Ah yes, a space for each person to store their belongings would be useful. It would certainly save time, rather than travelling back and forth to home in between lessons.

What sort of lessons are typically taught at schools?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

THAT WOULD BE SO COOL!!!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Anything and everything! We all have different talents, and there's so many people here from a lot of different places, so the possibilities are endless!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Well a typical school has like :

- Math
- History
- Social Studies
- English
- Science

But you can also sign up to take other classes! Like learning other languages, music, and art!

[multidisciplinary]

[ Science?? Mathematics?? Students at schools are so lucky! Zelda's tutors gave her a solid education in both subjects, but the princess has always wanted to learn more. ]

What is English?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

It's stuff like literature, proper grammar and spelling! You read old famous books and poetry, and become a better writer yourself.
