It's just the schools? Nothing else?

[eleisoned]

Well... There are shared districts between the schools...?

[ballies]

Where people live...?

[eleisoned]

Sure, there are residential neighborhoods in any district.

[ballies]

I was gonna say, you can’t just… live at the school. [ right? says i, becks, looking at miki who literally did that ]

[eleisoned]

Every school does have dorms, though...?

[ballies]

[ her face just calmly says “of course it’s a boarding school” ]

For some schools, I guess. Not all of them do?

[eleisoned]

... I suppose maybe some of the smaller schools might not...?

[ballies]

[ things i am learning about mika’s world: it’s all academia. you are academia. become academia. ]

A lot of schools in Tokyo just… have off campus living. Like, at home.

[eleisoned]

[ yeah, basically. ]

But it would take so long to get to school, like that...

[ballies]

You don’t have a decent transport system?

[eleisoned]

Transportation is excellent in Kivotos. But some distances just take time no matter what.

[ballies]

And there are only so many hours in the day…

[eleisoned]

Right. So it's easier to live closer to school. I just switched dorms recently and now I'm a little bit further away... But luckily it's not by much.

[ballies]

Nicer location? ... Nicer dorms?

[eleisoned]

It was more of a downgrade...

[ballies]

Oh, that sucks. Why'd you move then?

[eleisoned]

I got put on probation, so I couldn't stay in my old dorm anymore...

But it's alright. The new place is home and I can still have a nice time there. So what's it like where you live? [ lol ]

[ballies]

A probation? [ but she looks like such a good girl stares into cola's eyes. ]

That's the main thing. As long as you can live comfortably, and still hang out with people, where you are's just a base of sorts.

Oh... Tokyo? It's busy. Really busy, and kinda expensive to live in. But you definitely wouldn't get bored living there.

[eleisoned]

[ you got me... she's a naughty troublemaker. ]

Exactly! And it's fun thinking about how to decorate a new space once I can afford it...!

Is there a lot to do there? I've never heard of it.

[ballies]

[ frowns ]

Isn’t that every young person’s dream? Own a place so they can decorate it?

[ me, becks, crying. ]

Yup. It’s one of the busiest places in the world — and one of the ones with sooo many things to do. Historical, cultural, food wise… you name it, you can probably do it there or somewhere else in the country.

[eleisoned]

I had my own dorm before, so I wouldn't say this was a dream of mine...

[ hah. ]

It sounds fun! I wish this place was a little more like that, honestly.

[ballies]

But did you get to decorate it?

[ IMPORTANT QUESTIONS ]

It’s not too bad. Kinda small but at least there’s an arcade and some cafes around here. Those are the staples of city life.

[eleisoned]

I did... It was full of things I liked... But a couple grenades through the window wiped all of that out.

[ okay. ]

That's true. This place isn't bad, I don't mean to complain.

[ballies]

[ UHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ]

Grenades?!
