they pay us to go to school here
THEY pay US

and theres no entrance exams or anything just walk in and get paid for school

so uh anyone wanna split an apartment with me and my lion
and anyone here play volleyball jw

[Kunimi misses his old school and team more than he'd like to admit, but he's absolutely in favour of the education system here. Being in a hotel full of other newcomers already has him feeling crowded and overwhelmed, and the fact that attending classes will cover rent with a roommate is... way too appealing not to try out, honestly.

He probably should've asked over video so that potential roommates would know who's asking, huh...]

oh yeah im kunimi
just got here im almost 16 yo im a guy and i like quiet ppl

[There we go. That should be enough, right?]

[ This is his first time hearing this news...! ]

Do they take attendance?

[ Like... do you actually have to go to school to get that $$$? ]

[kunimeh]

idk tbh just registered so i havent been to class yet

but the classes dont sound as lame as what im used to
might be worth actually going lol

[Yeah, he's on to your line of thought.]

[intrapid]

Yeah?
Give me a run down of the curriculum.
If it's the usual courses, I think I'll pass and just stick to bounty hunting to make a living.

[kunimeh]

bounty hunting

[intrapid]

Bounty hunting.

[kunimeh]

[Okay, he deserved that.]

k
well

theres some history and cultural stuff and some trades
but its mostly magic classes and a lot of its beyond what we can do naturally now
practical stuff like spells and rituals and potions

could be cool right

they pay us??? really?? what do they teach?

i play volleyball sort of
but where i'm from we call it kuai ball. i was told the only difference is in volleyball you can't kick the ball. isn't it too cold now though??


oh and im 16 too and i also like quiet people..

[kunimeh]

k youre on my potential roommate list

[It's hard to tell because Kunimi is how he is, but that's actually a high compliment. Zuko just came in here and earned so many points in one message that Kunimi was practically shocked into saying it.]

uh youre not supposed to kick the ball but you can
ive seen guys headbutt it and knee it and bounce it off their chest
its indoor tho so temp isnt rly a thing

and the schools got classes on different kinds of magic
history and culture
seems kinda interesting for school

[rediscovering]

wait what im just responding to your post!!
i already live with my sister

[ Most people's logic may have it that Zuko probably should look for another roommate than his vicious sister, but logic isn't his modus operandi in any universe. ]

oh thats cool it can be played inside..
it sounds pretty much like the same sport though
the aim is just to hit the ball on the ground on the other team's side ten times to win, right?


they help with elemental magic??
ive never been to school. could be interesting.

[kunimeh]

oh...............
thats crappy for me but i get it
p cool your sisters here

[Kunimi's older sister is awesome, if annoyingly social and prone to drawing attention everywhere she goes, so he doesn't fully understand the dread that siblings can strike into each other's hearts.]

well kinda but it sounds like the point system is different
match point is 25 unless youre only one point ahead then whoever gets two points ahead first wins
and theres three sets in a full match

yeah and theres other kinds too like potions and spells

wait really? no school at all?

[rediscovering]

dont worry youll find someone youll like
my last roommates were nuts and id probably never hang out with them if we werent roommates but now we're friends. one of them and i almost fought the first time we met actually and now he's one of my closest friends ever. youll find who youre meant to be with...

[ Zuko would make as bad a real estate agent as he would a therapist, his final answer to comfort any problem is just...: "~*~DeSTiNy~*~" ]

that sounds more complicated but im still in


no.. i was home schooled...

[ ...in a palace all by himself with a private staff of royal tutors. Ahem. Totally counts as home-schooling. ]

do you think youll go to the school here?

[fullgauntlet]

They really plan to pay us to take classes? I was planning on taking classes anyway so that's nice?

I haven't played sports in a little while but I think I'd like volleyball. Do you play a lot?

Re: un: deku

[kunimeh]

yeah same better than working for now

its kinda hard but not complicated you know?
mostly takes a lot of practice bc you have to react fast
but its easy to learn

im in my schools volleyball club yeah

[fullgauntlet]

I still wouldn't mind trying out some of those quests that people have been talking about too.

Are you thinking of starting your own volleyball club here?

[kunimeh]

ehhh what have you heard about them
bc the one guy i talked to said he was doing bounty hunting quests and like
idk thats kinda intense??

but w/e i might too idk yet

nah just seeing what i have in common w people ig

[fullgauntlet]

Really? I thought the bounty hunting sounded interesting! Thematically, aren't those the big-ticket items?

[It's like that in video games??]

And honestly I didn't have a lot of time for sports in school... Haha.

[Wh- Him and his... what?]

A lion?

You mean your "familiar", right?

[Please?]

[kunimeh]

oh yeah lol oops
hes a komainu but not everyone knows what that is

[And Kunimi attaches a picture of the grey and red, open-mouthed lion currently napping on his bed. It's the size of a Saint Bernard so it takes up the entire single bed on its own.]

[itsmypower]

[He'll have to excuse him. "Lion" simply threw him off, and it does seem docile from his photo. But, then again, his Kasha seemed a Hellish thing.

Naturally, he's cautious.]

Right. Sorry.

It looks like the statues. Around the shrines?

[kunimeh]

yeah those guys hes one of those
his names yuu

we all have one right
what did you get

[itsmypower]

Yeah.
It's a kasha. Probably.

[It'd looked that way.]

I didn't ask its name.

What's your magic?

[irritated]

we get paid on grades? better grades then better money?

[Then he might be interested.]

[kunimeh]

lol idk if theres a pay scale
prob worth asking them tho

[irritated]

yeah because if you don't have to go to school then why should you?

[Hikaru wasn't even bad at school but ehh he kind of liked not having to go. He got spoiled.]

It's a very different outlook to school than most worlds. Knowledge itself should be reward enough, but the ability to sustain ourselves seems useful.

Basketball, not volleyball.

[ He's a quiet people sometimes. He's really loud when he yells but if you don't piss him off, he's a quiet people. ]
