A question

[Yes, it is rather easy to send one of these out when you have the internet back home. Connie was a little vexed that there was no network quite like that here, but she'd make do].

Ok, I know that most of the people here have a lot of questions about how things work and how to fight and all, and so far there have been plenty of you who have graciously given us answers and time (I'm very grateful to specific people here like Mr. Crackshell and Webigail and Princess Deetz, but many of you really helped, thank you). I have a different type of question though.

For those of you who live here and work, how easy is it to do all of your magical studies and keep a stable job? Back home I have to be attending college, but I'll be living on campus. That's different from working here and living AND learning about magic.

Basically, how do you budget your time? Any tips?

I tricked my prime into swapping places with me. When that didn't work, she attached me to her knife's mirror instead of the Mirror World's surface so I could get out.

I can here, but it was physically attached to my body back on the train. My flesh would do this grody goopy thing if you tried to take it off.

It's a lot better than the train, though.

A... lot better.

Basically, if you have personal problems with two capital Ps, the train kidnaps you and forces you to work through them until you're a healthy person again.

It's actually kind of a terrible system, honestly.

Also, it kills more people than it helps in my experience.

At least you don't age inside, so you don't have to worry about dying of old age before you solve all your personal crap, but once you get out...

[MT gestures at herself.]

It all snaps back.

[MT immediately makes a sour face. Don't go there, Connie.]
