EPISODE 16: EXTRA-CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES PART I: SECURING A SPACE FOR CLUBACTIVITIES
It was finally break time. Mitsuki, Arlene and Concordia had gathered in the school's yard with Keiran, Saito and Ariel.
"We're finally here but what do we do?" Keiran asked.
"I have my sigil Christopher scanning Central Dream City while on standby mode. In standby mode, it's practically invisible and all its images are relayed directly into my mind. If there is any disturbance, I will know" Arlene said.
"How're you doing this while maintaining focus in class?" Concordia asked in surprise.
"Christopher is also scanning our classroom so I can maintain focus. It's my sigil and since a sigil represents the identity of a Dream Knight, multi-tasking comes naturally to me. You should have deduced that from the nature of my sigil" Arlene explained.
"Yeah, in a sense, my Kraken Andromeda is similar to your Christopher" Concordia admitted.
"Anyway, the first thing we need to do is find a safe place where we can carry out our strategy meetings and Dream Knight duties without the risk of disturbance" Concordia said.
"In most popular anime, the heroes often come up with a set of extra-curricular activities. School clubs are usually granted spaces for their activities like unused classrooms and places of the like" Ariel suggested.
"You're a genius Ariel! That's exactly what we should do!" Saito praised.
"But if it's a club, eventually, new members are going to want to join. We'll have to limit our use of sigils when that starts to happen. We're also going to have to stop using terms that describe the realities of the Dream World like 'sigils' and the like" Mitsuki pointed out.
"We should decide what sort of club we're coming up with. It should be a club that can allow us to hone our abilities while simultaneously beneficial to students who join and to the school in general. Besides, we might need to send some sort of formal application for stuff like this and if our club is considered unnecessary, our application could be turned down" Arlene said.
"How about an archery club?" Concordia said excitedly.
"You're the only archer in our group. It can't be too narrow" Saito said.
"A Martial Arts Club?" Mitsuki asked.
"Probably taken already. Besides, Dream Knights like Arlene specialize more in support than in actual combat. Arlene would be left out" Keiran said.
"We could call it a Special Talents/Special Skills club or something of the like. It's not too narrow plus it factors in the abilities of any potential form of backup Dad and the Dream Knights might send our way" Saito said.
"That's a good idea. It's beneficial to both us and the students and factors in potential backup. Let's go with that" Concordia agreed.
"I'll prepare our application then. Looks like the girl from this school's News Committee is also the head of the Student Council Body. I'll meet up with her and present our application" Arlene said.
"You figured that out in just an hour?" Concordia asked in surprise.
"Information gathering is a fundamental tactic when it comes to both offense and defense" Arlene said with a smirk and walked away.
"Scary!" everyone froze in horror.
Roughly thirty minutes later, Arlene returned to the others.
"How did it go?" Concordia asked.
"I submitted our application. The Student Council appears to be processing it right now. They'll be done by the end of class" Arlene said.
