Hey, everybody! Wow, this forum thing is really neat. I wish we'd had something like this back home, it would've made keeping in touch with people a lot easier. It's pretty fun to look through and see all the questions people are asking, and read what everyone has to say! It seems like that's what this is for, right? Asking questions?

Actually, I was hoping I could ask a couple, too. One of them is, for people who have jobs, are your jobs enough to keep you sustained just from the Demichroma you earn, or do you have to accumulate Chroma yourself on the side, too? I don't just mean for splurging at the mall or something — I mean more of, with the moon cycles and all. It feels pretty weird to have to just ask people outright if they'll hold your hand to get some extra Chroma, but I guess around here people don't think that's as bold a thing to do as they would back home.

Anyway, I was a little worried about it, so I thought getting a job would be a good thing to do, but boy! The customers sure are something when there's a moon in the sky!

The other question I had was, I sort of want to go back to school, so I've been thinking of enrolling at the Academy. I'm just wondering if it's hard to balance classes and a job? It's sort of strange to get used to having to sleep again! But I really want to see if there are some opportunities to play music, or maybe do some acting, or dance. I used to know some girls who did ballet and I was always really jealous of how easy they made it look! I wonder if it's too late to learn...

Well, anyway! Those are my questions, and I won't be on break for much longer, so I'll check back when I have the chance. Thanks, everybody!

Oh, huh. So it's a class for teaching people who already have magic to use it, then? Not for people who don't have any to begin with. Well, that's okay, it's probably still really interesting, and practical for people who can do that kind of thing.

What kind of magic do you have?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

I don't actually know if that's the case! For all I know there could be beginning mage's classes. That's part of what I'm wanting to find out!

I'm a healer! Back in my world everyone could use magic but people have different affinities so certain spells come easier to them. Don't think that's the case here.

Mm, yeah, I know there are definitely some people here who can't do anything special. But it'd be pretty neat if there was a way to learn, even despite that.

A healer, so sort of like a doctor, then? Or were you more like a medic in the army, or something?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

This might sound a little odd, but much of my experience leads to the latter, but I'm working on the former!

Though our class was less like an army and more like a... investigative/spy team? 3-A was always kinda defined as 3-A given all the strange talents we all had. I teamed up with a ninja for a little while! And one of my closest friends back at home is a swordswoman!

[doreimi]

...A spy team? And you were going to school for that? What about normal things, like math and science?

[im_gonna_heal_u]

Oh no! Our school is perfectly ordinary!

[ Well, as ordinary as most schools were given they had a secret magic class before them. ]

Just that everyone involved had some notable talents, including our teacher. >_>

He wound up getting into most of the trouble, followed by the rest of us.
