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

Just take good care of it. [ She draws a smiley face, with little lines that make it look like a little sun, which is ironic, considering what she writes next. ] Father and I grow them ourselves in our greenhouse. Previously they were growing in caves deep in the Wildlands, so they tend to like dark spaces.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

See? We're learning things already!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ ... hold the phone - ]

Your DAD is here with you???

[judicialassistant]

[ ......Not the first person to react that way, honestly. ]

Yes. In fact I think we arrived at the same time. In November? Is that [ If Mei is watching the words appear, she might notice a pause here. ] strange?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

No no no no non no

okay maybe a little

I just didn't know our parents could show up here

[ like. dad might be cool about all that's happened. but mom? HOO BOY, MOM. ]

[judicialassistant]

Parents dream, too!

[ Susato is no artist, but she doodles the rough approximation of a smiling mustachioed man. Well, as smiling as Yujin can be, anyway. It probably looks cartoonish at best. ]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

well yeah i guess that's true

He seems like a nice guy

[ mom i love you but please be chillax if you get here PLEASE BE CHILLAX MEI'S SWEAT IS LITERALLY DROPPING ONTO THE JOURNAL ]

[lestray]

No one better not make me go or il show them wat a fight i can put up!

I aint gonna feel left out or nuffin! Went all me life without school dont need to start it now

The only thing Il feel is annoyed if everyone cant shut their north n souths about it

Wat's so great about school anyway?? It sounds so boring, n full of people trying to tell you wat to think

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ ... norths and souths??? Like, mouth and... butt???? Maybe this person really does need school... ]

They don't tell you what to think, they tell you stuff you don't know! And they can make what you're already good at even better! They help you decide what you want to do when you grow up, and you can make all kinds of amazing memories with new friends!

Besides, this is a dream world - real world rules don't have to apply here! We can have kids teaching other kids! Maybe you can teach everyone else something!

[lestray]

[Just mouth. Just mouth!!]

You dont need a school for all that stuff! You can do som of that just from being someone's apprentice. Then you just gotta worry about trusting one adult!

Me teaching? Pull the other one. No way anyone wud let me teach anytin!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

It's our school, so we can have anything go! I bet there's something you're really, REALLY good at! Come on, tell me!

[lestray]

Stealing. It's mostly stealing. I no all about diving into pockets and taking wat I need.

I don't do it no more, mind. Now im a detective, but im still an apprentice. I aint really in a position to teach much. Not that im agreeing to teach anything to start with!!

[judicialassistant]

[ Some spots on the page may have appeared slightly darker than normal? Susato thinks she's imagining it. ]

If you are ever hurt, you can count on him. But hopefully I will have a chance to introduce you, even if you aren't.

The books, research, subjects that I think most people would find boring

[Not Ira, but others.]

[keystaff]

Tomoyo-chan would probably like meeting you and any other friends I make here. At the least, if there is? or is going to be a school she would probably be going with us so you'd definitely see her!

[stupidmammon]

You're makin' the puppy eyes at my right now aintcha.

[ He can feel it and it's somehow working even though he can't actually see her face right now. ]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Okay yeah no. No stealing. Stealing is bad.

[ They may not have rules but they still have laws! ... Right? ... This heartfelt moment is really going down the toilet. ]

But maybe you can teach us what your detective mentor taught you! Like passing on his wisdom.

[lestray]

You sure? Dont want me to teach the little ones a starter class to stealing? How to half inch anytin from a stranger's pockets?

I dont think I got enough detective lessons for a hole class. I did pick up a lot about finding the best fish and chips.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Is he a doctor?

[ a little worrying you can get hurt or sick in a dream world... ]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Then they'll definitely wanna chat with me, cause I don't think any of that is boring!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

My friends would like you too! And we'll all mush together like ONE BIG BALL OF FRIENDSHIP!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

School would just be so much cooler and more fun if you were there, is all I'm saying :3 :3 :3

[refire]

Wait, really?

You wouldn't mind it if someone taught swordsmanship?

I'd be willing to try in that case!

[stupidmammon]

[ Mei is playing him like a violin and it's working. ]

Alright Alright. You win, Mei. I'll help ya with your whole school buildin' nonsense.

[judicialassistant]

He is a professor, technically, but he specializes in forensic medicine. He knows a lot, and has even studied overseas. He runs the clinic here in Reverein.

Dr Mathis was helping him, but it is just him and a handful of volunteers now, I'm afraid.
