A lot of you are from this country, right? That is, on your home world version of Earth. Even though I've been in this world for a few years, now, I haven't seen much of the US at all. Are the other states and big cities here like the ones you remember? What are they like? I...

Mmm, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to say why I'm asking, would it? I'm trying to narrow down where I want to go, but it's pretty tough when they do such a good job painting every campus like it's a marvel of the modern world. So... anything you might know would be a great help.

Thanks.

I guess it depends on what you want to study, doesn't it? Like...some schools are better than others.

[Beat.]

Yeah, I know less about this country than you do. This isn't going to be helpful.

[dragony]

[deadpan:] Gee, thanks.

But, most of the schools I've looked up have what I'm looking for, which is why it's so tough to narrow it down.

Maybe I should just ask where I'll stand out the least.

[lastnerv]

Yeah, I know, sorry. But I wanted to help

And really, That doesn't sound like a bad idea. Maybe whatever school has a lot of Japanese transfer students? ["Or green hair" but he doesn't say that part.]

[dragony]

[punches WHAT COLLEGE TOWNS GO THROUGH THE MOST HAIR DYE into google]

Mm, maybe. Though, I wonder if that would be weird? Since, I've never been to any part of Japan that exists there in this world.

[conquerorking]

Why limit yourself to but one country?

[dragony]

Getting there and back all the time so wouldn't be so easy if I'm on another continent.

[conquerorking]

Eh... Why not? If this world has technology sufficient to teleport across worlds, surely simply one continent is no trouble at all.

[dragony]

Other people have that sort of power, but not me. I'd have to take several flights, depending on where I wanted to go.

[hexappeal]

I'm fond of the west coast.

[dragony]

California, right? [OBVIOUSLY THAT IS THE ENTIRE WEST COAST.]

[hexappeal]

Mostly, yeah. I live in San Francisco back home. Well, most of the time.

[dragony]

What's it like there?

[hackeralastair]

Campus? Sounds like you're talking about going away for school.

Don't think I can help you much there. When I lived in the U.S. I lived in L.A. and...well. You know. Not like I went to university anyway.

[dragony]

Even if it were perfect there, I don't think I could bring myself to go there.

But you got the first part right.

[hackeralastair]

Yeah, I don't blame ya.

...crap, are you that old already? No, you can't be...even after all the time here...

[dragony]

As far as the law's concerned, I turn seventeen this summer.

[xuffasch]

This world is missing a few places.

[dragony]

Yes. Which ones are you thinking of in particular?

[xuffasch]

Gotham. Metropolis. Others, but they're not as important.

Though I suppose they aren't exactly vacation spots.

[themysciran]

Is there any specific field you want to focus on?

[dragony]

Art and design, primarily, which is offered most everywhere. That's why I'm trying to narrow down based on other things, first.

[themysciran]

Have you tried looking at the cities these universities are based in? Perhaps some of their environments are more to your liking than others.

[eternalcutie]

You're looking for a school?

[he sounds a little...surprised?]

[dragony]

Yes. A university, to be more specific.

[eternalcutie]

Aren't you a little young for that?
