*** Normally that would be the case, but you could say the same thing about dreams: normally dreams, even lucid ones, only take place in the Dream Productions studio. But now that Riley is aware of the existence of her MentalWorld, she is able to leave the studio in her dreams. Sure, the reality distortion filter also needs to be disabled, but that's simply so she can perceive things accurately, and a filter wouldn't make sense for daydreams anyway. If her dreams can extend outside the studio, wouldn't it make sense for her daydreams to be able to extend outside her imagination as well?

* Now that Riley is aware of how her mind works, and knows what it's like to be "inside" it, it would make sense for her to be able to make changes there by simply visualizing it. It could even be easier, since unless you have a lot of practice with lucid dreaming, it's generally easier to control something you're visualizing while awake than it is in a lucid dream—the latter is simply preferable in most cases because it's so much more immersive. Sounds pretty useful, right? It certainly could be. But if it's ''too'' easy, she might do it by accident—like if she thinks of something that would be a ''very'' bad idea, and starts getting curious about how exactly it could go wrong.

** Well, yes and no. On one hand, there's a reference in the mind manuals warning about accidental consciousness tampering. However, I think the one safeguard Riley has to prevent herself from making changes from OUTSIDE her mind world is contained in a location: Imagination Land. Since a lot of what she's doing is imagining, a lot of that would be manifested in imagining visualizing rather than fundementally altering the mind world.

** Perhaps even worse, it could potentially also open her up to MindManipulation if somebody finds out. If someone presents an idea, and you make the decision that it's something you definitely don't want to think about, the simple act of trying ''not'' to think about it can have the opposite effect, as you have to know what it is you're trying not to think about.

* If one reads closely, the idea bulb Joy plugs in to help Riley study is specifically labeled "Use Emotions' Help to Study for Test". The idea bulb does just that, but later, Riley comes up with a new way for her emotions to help her "study". The fact that Riley came up with her idea while the bulb was plugged in could bring up the possibility that the bulb is responsible for Riley coming up with the idea of cheating, backed up by the bulb growing brighter. Also, Joy was the one who [[WhatTheHellHero plugged it in.]]
** Riley calls Joy out on this in Chapter 11 but, in a case of MyGodWhatHaveIDone, acknowledges that she was the one to act on it and came up with the idea to cheat in the first place.
* From what we saw in Chapter 10 about the interesting ways people (and their emotions moreso) react to hearing [[spoiler:Riley say things that indicate she has knowledge of the Mind World]], Riley could probably cause quite a lot of panic in a crowded area very easily, with few if any people actually being able to figure out why everyone is suddenly acting all shocked. Especially considering that [[spoiler:everything she's said so far can easily be dismissed as a coincidentally-accurate metaphor. The other characters' emotions even say that if she says something that undoubtedly confirms she has "inside knowledge" it would be a real cause for panic]]. Though if you think about it, exactly ''why'' that would be a cause for panic is unclear. Luckily for them though, she doesn't seem like the kind of person who would intentionally mess with people like that.
** Chapter 11 answers exactly why it would be a cause for panic—emotions fear that humans would GoMadFromTheRevelation, with the hypothetical scenario proposed of people committing crimes and claiming [[GollumMadeMeDoIt their emotions are really at fault]].
* When Riley hears her emotions talking about the Memory Dump in Chapter 11, she starts to imagine a [[NightmareFuel Nightmare Fueled]] version of it as a black hole swallowing her memories. In the next chapter, she wonders what it actually looks like. That's interesting because it means she didn't make the connection with the sprawling chasm surrounding Headquarters yet, despite having to cross it with the Train of Thought to get there from Dream Productions (to be fair with her, during her first lucid dream, she was already busy enough getting the hang of steering the train and taking the sights of the rest of the Mind World not to dwell on the purpose of the great expanse of void below). One may wonder what will be her reaction when she's told that [[IgnoranceIsBliss she already got pretty close to the Dump]] ''[[FridgeHorror and had no idea of what it actually was]]''.
** Answered in chapter 13. Riley was precisely at the helm of the train when it happened. Let's say that [[{{Understatement}} it could have gone better]].



** Really, it takes what we KNOW is true via our movie goggles, and spits it in our face that it could also be considered insanity if we actually knew what was going on. Heck, Fear even mentioned another aspect of Schizophrenia in "being compelled" to act by their emotions as a reason why the emotions typically don't talk with their people.

** "Voices" are the most common type of hallucination in schizophrenia. Many people with the disorder hear voices. The voices may talk to the person about his or her behavior, order the person to do things, or warn the person of danger. Sometimes the voices talk to each other. People with schizophrenia may hear voices for a long time before family and friends notice the problem. Already, the very PREMISE of this fic gives the first symptom of schizophrenia.
** Other types of hallucinations include seeing people or objects that are not there, smelling odors that no one else detects, and feeling things like invisible fingers touching their bodies when no one is near. While she didn't feel or smell different things, Riley's imagination is causing her to see the mind world in her own life, distracting or disappointing her when comparing the two.
** Thought disorders are unusual or dysfunctional ways of thinking. One form of thought disorder is called "disorganized thinking." This is when a person has trouble organizing his or her thoughts or connecting them logically. This is precisely what Riley's time being Scatterbrained was like.
** Lack of pleasure in everyday life. This was something that came up after the first Mind World trip, where Riley admitted that she missed the Mind world, making the physical world seem dull by comparison.
** Speaking little, even when forced to interact. Riley's mom mentioned during some of this time that Riley is talking a bit less than before.
** Trouble focusing or paying attention. The emotions arguing with each other cause this problem right away.

\n** Riley calls Joy out on this in Chapter 11, but definitely acknowledges that [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone she was the one to act on it and came up with the idea to cheat in the first place]].

* From what we saw in Chapter 10 about the interesting ways people (and their emotions moreso) react to hearing [[spoiler:Riley say things that indicate she has knowledge of the Mind World]], Riley could probably cause quite a lot of panic in a crowded area very easily, with few if any people actually being able to figure out why everyone is suddenly acting all shocked. Especially considering that [[spoiler:everything she's said so far can easily be dismissed as a coincidentally-accurate metaphor.

** Chapter 11 answers exactly why it would be a cause for panic—emotions fear that humans would GoMadFromTheRevelation, such as people committing crimes and claiming [[GollumMadeMeDoIt their emotions are really at fault]].

*If one reads closely, the idea bulb Joy plugs in to help Riley study is specifically labeled "Use Emotions' Help to Study for Test". The idea bulb does just that, but later, Riley comes up with a new way for her emotions to help her "study". The fact that Riley came up with her idea while the bulb was plugged in could bring up the possibility that the bulb is responsible for Riley coming up with the idea of cheating, backed up by the bulb growing brighter. Also, Joy was the one who [[WhatTheHellHero plugged it in.]]
