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

Maybe that's something you can learn here!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

It's hard to describe, but it's like explaining so much in so little time. And I rarely need a calculator!

[refire]

You're calling me Teach already.

Just Alphen is fine.

Do you want me to call you something other than your name?

[angelbirth]

It'll get you pretty far, I admit.

[ But he can think of a few people who wouldn't be moved by flattery, not even in the slightest. ]

Who needed to be warmed up to the idea?

[indolentaxe]

Perfect. Keep me posted. :)

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Everyone calls me Mei!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Now now, I'm no snitch! The important thing is that we're reeled them in!

[angelbirth]

[ WOW. ]

If you're sure. I just worry that if they're lacking a real, genuine motivation to learn that they're just going to give up a week into this. So, it would probably be a good idea to monitor anyone who shows up to your school but initially said they weren't interested so we can help maintain their interest in furthering their education.

[judicialassistant]

Yes! On that note, be sure to visit Theater Row by the river if you get a chance. It is heavenly for people who have an interest in the arts. Maybe you will find a flute there.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

[ well, one of the people who complained was Satan's brother, and Mei doesn't wanna get Mammon in trouble... ]

I'll keep an eye on them, I promise! You can count on me!

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Actually, that's one of the things I came here with! It's weird what this dream let me bring along with me. Kind of wish I'd brought along a lot more stuff, but I got the essentials!

[angelbirth]

[ It's okay. Mammon is literally in trouble with Satan every day of the week for one thing or another. In all honesty, that was part of the reason why he even asked -- but he was also interested in gauging people's willingness to learn. ]

Well, it's your idea so I'll let you handle it as you see fit. But let me know if you need anything, all right? I really do want to help make this happen. It sounds both fun and useful.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

Will do! You can count on me, and I can count on you!

[angelbirth]

Thanks, Mei.



[ Relying on other people is hard for him to do, but he acknowledges this is Mei's project. So, he knows when to let her take the wheel! She's pretty much the most capable teenager he's ever come across, too, so everything will probably turn out just fine. ]

[judicialassistant]

Oh! Well, it is not as if we were able to prepare for the trip, but I understand. Luckily, I was already on a voyage when I woke up here, so I also had all the essentials. I'd still like to have more of my notes, though.

[ Not really essential, but they'd make her feel better to have. ]

[refire]

Then I'll call you Mei!

It's good to be your friend! I'm not too good with formalities and things like that so we can just keep this simple.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

I know, I wish had some of my textbooks so I can study while I was here. And I totally miss my tamagotchi! :(

[twilightskey]

Calculator?

Sorry, it just sounds kind of complicated. I've never done math before.

[judicialassistant]

[ ..."Egg watch"? Well, she's guessing-- ]

A watch shaped like an egg?

[itsgunnabe_mei]

wait

do you mean like

NEVER ever ever????

[itsgunnabe_mei]

nooo it's a virtual pet! it's super cute!!! i named mine Robaire Junior after my favorite singer from 4-town! <3 <3 <3

[twilightskey]

No, never. I've never been to school before.

[He has fake memories of going to a fake school, as well as Sora's memories of school, but his own personal experience? Nope.]

[judicialassistant]

...You could wish for it. I think I would like to meet this Robaire Junior.

[itsgunnabe_mei]

But hasn't anyone taught you anything??? Like, two plus two???

[itsgunnabe_mei]

I've heard about the wishing thing, but I wanted to get some real info first. My mom always says, 'there's no such thing as a free lunch'. Which means everything costs something!
