Something like that.

I don't know many other types of schools that specialise in etiquette and tradition.

[eleisoned]

Well, what sort of school did you go to?

[ballies]

I didn't.

[eleisoned]

Oh...

[ okay well on the up side she has talked to enough people now to understand that this doesn't mean tama is by default some kind of sad hobo ]

[ballies]

[ she just sniggers. ]

Don't worry, I learned everything pretty quickly. Even without the traditional schooling.

[eleisoned]

I-I guess if that's enough...

[ballies]

You can quiz me, if you want. I'm maybe at a handicap here, but my-- [ local files ]-- memory's pretty robust.

[eleisoned]

That's okay. Being from different worlds makes that kind of testing pretty impossible.

[ballies]

Mm. I guess so. It'd be funny if we had some surprise coincidental overlap that only came out in something like this, huh?

[eleisoned]

So far it doesn't seem like I've had much overlap with anyone...

[ballies]

Tell me a bit more about your world then. Outside of the schools?

[eleisoned]

[ she just looks confused by the concept of 'outside of the schools' honestly ]

[ballies]

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…
