( crying, komaeda-arata is walking down the steps where he'll almost bump into rokkun, but he manages not to. he'll lift his hand because... his books, he has school books to carry. )

Are you looking for someone?

( cliche, but fitting. )

[adsum]

Are you studying?

[ Picnic can wait, what is this ]

[commences]

Do you think I'm stupid?

( excuse me, can he not have books? )

[adsum]

[ no answer ]

[commences]

I've graduated high school.

( what about you? huh, look at you, still stuck here. )

Did you want me to help you with your studies? It's the least I can do since I'll die a first year.

[adsum]

[ shut uppppppp he's going to graduate this year, just watch ]

No... my grades aren't bad enough that I need tutoring or anything like that. If not studying... Were you going to tutor someone?

[ who are they. give him names. ]

[commences]

( win the practicum and then komaeda-arata will watch. )

...

( oh, actually, komaeda-arata does tutor... now that i think about it, oh i'm crying. )

Hm? I do, ( not i am, but he does. ) and they're actually doing great. They have a pretty bad attention span, but nothing that can't be fixed.

( he's going to walk down one step, looking towards rokkun so he can follow. )

[adsum]

[ hm

alright, he'll bite. following Komaeda down the stairs ]

[commences]

( ...

...

...

i just don't like it. )

You're like a lost puppy today, what's wrong?

[adsum]

[ ...

...

... ]

Nothing's wrong.

[commences]

( ...

...

... )

The person I tutor is skittish... so maybe we don't have to see them.

( ... )

Have you seen our dorms? They're haunted.

[adsum]

Rika lives in the dorms.

[ hello? he's never stepping foot in there ]

[commences]

( when has that ever stopped him? ... komaeda-arata doesn't even attempt to ask, he's never receptive to the ultimate talking about her with him. )

Then where do you want to go? There's only so many locations until it's repetitive...

( ... )

I like the library, I had a hopeful experience there.

[adsum]

[ Hmm, can't eat in the library. Vetoed. ]

...Have you been in the courts yet? It's boring inside, and it feels like you're stuck in a cage, but people stay away.

[commences]

Must be what animals feel like... you must feel safe there...

( did he call him a... yeah, he did... yeah... )

I haven't been inside, but... why would you take me somewhere so deathly boring? ( but he'll bite, it's the... people will stay away, so he looks towards him. ) If I hate it, you owe me...

[adsum]

You're going to hate it. Like I said, it's boring.

[ But he has had days where he's done nothing but lie in the courts and stare up at the sky and let the hum of the electric fence fill his head. ]

You're never been, though, and new experiences can be worth it, even if it turns out to be boring.

[commences]

( oh, the courts is that place stephanie was at that one time... well, it's not like he paid attention, so he guesses it'll be his first time focusing... he doesn't know... sports weird. )

...That's true, I wonder what you'll have in store for me. Walk me to my locker, and I'll accompany you.

( wondering why he'd take komaeda close to the electric fence where he could touch it... sighs. )

[radnarok]

Komeada!

[ The soft sound of footfalls arrives before Crona does, running down the hall. ]

I went to the classroom...and you w-weren't there? Did I mess it up...is hope an outside thing now? [ They stop in front of Komeada and Rokkun before blinking over at their classmate. ]

Oh its the lonely guy from the back row... [ What is he doing out here with Komeada...they frown, almost edging into a pout before they remember-- No..they should be polite!] Is Komeada also teaching you...?

[ :/ ]

[adsum]

"Lonely"?

[ Hello? He's not— ... Anyways, what's Crona doing looking behind them in class, mind your own business, he happens to like the back row /:

...

sets his face in a smile ]

Nah, I was just hoping to spend some time with him, since we don't see each other much during school. Is he a good teacher?

[ Komaeda? ]

[commences]

Lonely...

( as if komaeda didn't tease rokkun for being lonely moments ago, but he makes a mental note of the description as he looks towards crona with a smile. )

You didn't mess up anything, hope isn't something easily thwarted by just missing one class... having the courage to find me on your own is just the start...

( you ever see two people about to talk about you, and think that they shouldn't so you cut in with a quick clap of your hands. )

Anyway... He's taking us to the court so we can have class there, isn't that kind of him? ( looks at rokkun like... he is not changing his mind from what he said so crona is coming along whether he likes it or not. )

[radnarok]

Lonely. [ Everyone sure is repeating that. Crona will not be left out.

Look, you think they're paying attention in class? No. They spend all of it freaking out and praying the teacher won't call on them. Rokuro is the guy at the back always looking at the window and Crona has almost certainly made really awkward eye contact with him before.]

I didn't want to miss it. [ They turn to Rokkun with a brighter expression. ] Huh? Yeah, he's really nice and always takes the time to-

[ Immediately distracted by clapping. ]

Oh, so he is joining? Why didn't he say so...I'm pretty confused.

[adsum]

Not lonely.

[ stop!! ]

I don't really need the extra lessons, but... sure. Alright. What were you needing help with, Crona?

[ So he can decide whether it's worth listening in or if he can just sit and listen to the buzz of electricity and zone out. Either way, since he's been volunteered into taking them to the courts, he'll walk up ahead. ]

[commences]

( not komaeda invested in whatever crona and rokkun have going on —

...
...
...
he's trying really hard to laugh, but he chuckles anyway. )

Of course you aren't, I wasn't aware you had a friend in Crona-san, is all!

( he's going to walk next to crona to make sure they follow without getting lost, but then i remembered rokkun crippled so he can only go so fast. )

...

( ok he asked a question so komaeda is just going to stay quiet, but i won't stay quiet where is the food? where's his snack? )

[radnarok]

Hope!

[ They tug on Komeada's arm, dragging him forward a little so they can comfortably walk between him and Rokkun and keep an eye on both of them. They're chaperoning. ]

I'm a really sad and useless person, so I don't get things like hope without help. [ So they spend vital time trying to understand it. ] Komeada gives me quizzes...but its more fun then class. We get to talk about the ultimates.

[ They turn to look up at Komeada, then back to Rokkun with a furrowed brow. ]

Um, are we friends, Rokuro? I thought if people didn't talk in class that made them just normal.

[adsum]

[ Oh, the gut reaction to deny having friends. Just going to bypass that question. ]

You aren't supposed to talk in class anyways, unless the teacher calls on you. It's different when you're being taught one on one, isn't it? You're the only one being called on, and when you get things wrong... [ glances at Komaeda, goes back to looking forward ] Well, maybe he's nicer, since you find classes fun.
