The university system that we know of here doesn't exist in my world. [A pause here.] But there are some similarities. There was a single institution in the city of Aspio that could have qualified as 'higher education', if even, but it was mainly dedicated to the study of blastia and related topics. Smaller educational institutions were scattered

Does that mean you're not going?

[kyudousha]

Which is impractical. What would they do if people targeted the facility? You wouldn't have anywhere to evacuate the students to.

[resonancy]

[you say that like it hasn't happened before :I]

It's- erm... I don't think most would try to. After all, Lord Shinigami is there, and now most of the Deathscythes have been gathered, too... It would be difficult to cause any trouble.

[kyudousha]

[She doesn't know that okay :|]

The best weapons, huh. It might act as a deterrence, but I doubt it's going to deter everyone who's interested in causing trouble.

Still, though, if that system's worked for you guys, I'm not about to butt in.

[resonancy]

Maybe not, but you'd have to risk an awful lot to try. Shibusen as a whole can't be underestimated.

[kyudousha]

Like I said before, if it works, it works.

We've had a recent influx lately. Anyone else from your world show up?

[resonancy]

No, nobody... But maybe it's better that way. --What about you? Come to think of it, I don't think I've ever heard of anyone you knew from where you're from.

[kyudousha]

Someone came this time 'round. Actually, most of my original little group ended up collecting here. Raven, Flynn, Estelle, Judith, and now Karol.

All we need now is Yuri, and we'd all be here.

[resonancy]

Really? I don't think I've ever talked to any of them before. I guess I should at some point!

[kyudousha]

You wouldn't want to.

[resonancy]

-- Hm? Why's that?

[kyudousha]

They're not exactly profound in their conversations.

Some of them are downright idiotic.

[resonancy]

[and yet, you say 'your group'...]

I wouldn't mind meeting them, at the very least.

[kyudousha]

[shhh]

They're not worth your time, but, suit yourself. They're all living upstairs of the Vesperia Tavern.

[resonancy]

Okay, I'll keep that in mind.

Are you glad they're here?

[kyudousha]

No. [/without hesitation] As far as I'm concerned, all of them except for Estelle give me nothing but headaches.
