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

Groups of people? Like, the crowd. We weren't doing much besides talking. Or egging people on to fight sometimes.

School there is weird. The staff is incompetent and there always seemed to be something else other than learning going on most of the time.

[keystaff]

A big ball?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Actually, I just had an idea. As long you give stuff back, you could turn stealing into a magic trick!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Would I mind??? Shoot, I'll be your first student!

[twilightskey]

That's true. I guess it did feel pretty good after finishing a mission.

So what do people actually do in school? I know there's homework to do, but I don't know much else.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

you're the best, mammon! <3 <3 <3

[itsgunnabe_mei]

If you guys need help, I can try to lend a hand!

[ It's sheer instinct at this point to offer her help 24/7, without even realizing she's done it. ]

[lestray]

Iv taught people stuff like that before. Didnt think of it like it was jo magic trick or nuffin tho. N I doubt you could make a hole class ov it

[indolentaxe]

Self defense is part of weapons training. Battle tactics is more like 'how do you direct your troops if the terrain is poor and it's raining and also the other side has a catapult or whatever.'

[Totally normal things to teach a group of teenagers!]

It's the worst.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Well no egging on fights here! Instead, we'll have stuff like self-defense classes! I bet that'll be really useful here!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

THE BIGGEST BALL EVER

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Well, there's taking notes, but depending on the class, you could be doing all kinds of stuff! Like drawing for art class, or mixing chemicals for science class!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Who says? I'd love to learn magic tricks. It'd make us the life of every party!

[nulland]

They would have been useful there too, actually.

[He used to get bullied by a T-Rex. But she did that to everyone.]

So this is just going to be a school for what's actually helpful around here? I'm not complaining, just wondering.

[judicialassistant]

[ Relatable. Susato won't even dismiss her right away, ever encouraging. ]

How sweet of you! He would love your company, I'm sure of it.

You could learn a lot from him, if you ever wish to become a nurse.

[stupidmammon]

Okay okay, you ain't gotta been butterin' me up like this.

[ Only because it's making him embarrassed now! ]

[keystaff]

This isn't a real, actual ball? It won't be like some boulder running around and crushing people? You just mean we'd all be friends, right?

[She assumes. Given her being so gullible though it is not the most surprising that she would be so inclined to believe most anything, given Yamazaki and his stories.]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

We don't even have troops!

[ the hell kinda world you from?! ]

[itsgunnabe_mei]

It'll be for anything and everything people here want to learn! No limits here!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ countdown until mei faints from exhaustion... ]

I want to learn a lot from everyone! My mom says the possibilities for my future are endless if I keep expanding my knowledge!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Okaaaay. But I'm sure we'll find something you like in school!

[multidisciplinary]

[ Learning is so fun! ]

Has anyone volunteered to teach about dreamotion magic?

[nulland]

Of course there are limits. There's got be plenty of things nobody even knows enough about to teach in the first place.

[refire]

You sound so excited. I'll take that as a good sign?

It'll be a lot of hard work though.

Well, well, isn't this a pleasant surprise? 'Tis always heartening to see the young take pride in their continuing education.

I'd say it reminds me of my own school days, but I wasn't nearly as invested.

[He always preferred the company more than the work.]

That said, I do have a couple of questions, if you will indulge me.

One: what significance do lockers have with regards to education? I assume a difference in cultures is at play, but I am curious nonetheless.

Two: why does your "emoticon" (I think that's the correct word for it, anyroad) have multiple mouths?
