"I will get a clone on that and have results in a few hours."

Permalink

"Thanks! Let me know when for the moon thing?"

Permalink

"Will do!"

A few hours later: "Clone arrived on the moon just fine!"

Permalink

"Awesome! So that means we're going?"

Permalink

"Yeah, c'mon."

Cam has to make a new shuttle since the test clone took one already but this is not really a problem.

Permalink

Space!!!

He brings along his dad (the blond Hokage who keeps not-teleporting everywhere) but no one else.

Permalink

"Welcome! Please keep your hands and feet inside the vehicle at all times."

And up they go.

Permalink

He is a very well behaved passenger! There's some wriggling to look at various views, but, well, he does stay seated.

Permalink

The cabin is airtight anyway. The view is great. The world falls away and the moon approaches.

Permalink

Cool!

He wonders if there's actually an ancient space alien sealed up here somewhere...

Permalink

Such an alien is not in immediate evidence on landing or the clone would have mentioned it. It's a longish flight but Cam can conjure entertainment as needed.

Permalink

It'll take him a while to tire of space!!!

Though he will want entertainment after about two hours.

Permalink

Cam's clone army small tactical squad has found him books and movies on learning disabilities and education, among other topics!

Permalink

Oh yeah, that'll be really good for his plans!

His dad was Hokage, even if only for a year, so he also ropes him in to help figure out plans.

Cam can listen in on this while piloting.

His dad has some insights on how the genin teams even work and where they came from - they started at the end of the Warring States Era, before the Academy was even founded, as a way to get children from different clans training together. Back then, there wasn't really the same chuunin-jounin split, so the teachers were mostly about chuunin-equivalent. Teams used to also be six to one teacher. Then, because the early Leaf shinobi were still having kids at rates more typical when there'd been higher mortality, there was a population boom - and then when birth rates dropped for a while they had enough adults that it was reasonable to pull a significant portion to be teachers. But then they had trouble switching to a new system as the adult/child ratios evened out some.

"Huh! I could see how that'd fall out this way, then."

Permalink

"I think we should be able to move to class sizes of eight under a chuunin from twelve on? For at least some things - it probably makes sense to keep larger classes together for things that don't vary a lot with learning style, and I think students benefit from having more than one teacher."

Permalink

"Many of them do, yeah, lets them sort of shop around even if they can't drop the teachers they don't work well with right away."

Permalink

"That'd be nice - I only got along with a few of the teachers I ever had."

Permalink

"Me too!"

Permalink

"Though for a while it might not scale well with teaching everyone to use chakra, unless I turn out to be a good teacher and can make like a thousand teaching clones, which'd be fun!"

Permalink

"If you would find that fun I am sure it would be an amazing contribution to the field!"

Permalink

"I haven't tried it! Might be fun though."

Permalink

"It'd make the concept of rating your teacher kind of weird... 'Ah, who'd you have?' 'I had 505-211-1...'"
