... It worries me... I wish I could say more about it, but I can't...

[ He's still working on his homework. A few days later, Ivan's answer will be an overwhelming NO ]

[forevalone]

It's okay. You don't have to.

[sponsorigami]

They're orders I have to follow. It's not personal

[merged]

Because they're strangers? Or is it something else?

[forevalone]

The fact they're unfamiliar is only part of it...but one seems really mean and the other one is really intimidating.

From: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

Only one of them seems nice, but I can't tell yet if it's genuine or if she just finds me pathetic.

From: ikari.shinji@cdc.org

I haven't met the last one one yet.

[forevalone]

I understand.

[sponsorigami]

[ Shinji will understand a whole lot more later. ]

Um, so let me know if you want to eat together or something...

[forevalone]

I would like to...I will.

[merged]

Don't let them frighten you. Why does one of them seem mean, though?

[forevalone]

The girl aside, they look at me as if they want me dead...

Because I get in the way or I'm useless. I mean, it's true...I'm useless here. But that doesn't mean it's nice to hear.

Are you awake, Ikari Shinji?

[forevalone]

I am, yes. Is something wrong?

[embattle]

Nothing.

I'm leaving for a bit.
I thought you'd like to come.

Good! [ There's some shuffling sounds as Souji starts to sort through his notes. ] Big Boss's classes have most been about military vocabulary and phrases. Did you want to stay focused on that, or learn some more general things?

(ooc: sorry for the delay! family is in town and it ate up more of my time than i thought)

[merged]

Don't call yourself useless. If you were, the CDC never would have brought you here in the first place. You don't have to have supernatural powers, or be a soldier to be a useful person.

And if they called you useless, I'll make them useless.

[forevalone]

Where?

[forevalone]

I'd like to learn more general things, if that's okay.

_{[ooc: no worries! it' all good! c:]}

[forevalone]

_{[That's...wow. Okay. He's not used to having people wanting to stand up for him. Give him a moment.]}

Sharon-san...but why?

[embattle]

The mountains.
There's something I need.

[forevalone]

What is it?

[embattle]

Flowers.

[He'd sound a touch embarrassed, could text convey such things.]

[fifteenhundred]

Got it. [ There's more papers shuffling, and then: ] First we'll start with words for food and drink. I'll list a few of them off to start and we'll see how many you know, or can guess.

[ And Souji does exactly that, switching to English and listing off the simpler words: food, bread, water, apple, cake, orange, cherry, tomato, and so on. He stops after a dozen or so words and waits for Shinji's response. ]

[forevalone]

Okay, I'll come with you.

[merged]

Because I know what it's like to feel like you do. [ In a sense. ]

DAY 20 | midday

Did a girl with weird hair named Kaname do something nice for you that made you happy.

[ This is a srs question alright. ]
