( 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. )

[ hm

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

( ...

...

...

i just don't like it. )

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

[ ...

...

... ]

Nothing's wrong.

( ...

...

... )

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

( ... )

Have you seen our dorms? They're haunted.

Rika lives in the dorms.

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

( 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.

[ 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.

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...

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.

( 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. )

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...?

[ :/ ]

"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? ]

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. )

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.

Edited 2021-09-21 21:36 (UTC)

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. ]

( 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? )

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.

[ 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.

( komaeda noticed that, and he'll clear his throat. okay mr edge. )

What's nice about me? ( don't even think about it. ) This is a class about Hope and Ultimates, Crona-san understands that if they get one thing wrong what happens.

( anyway, he'll lift a hand to flick his finger against the other's ear as crona drags him along, and they're all matching the same pace so one isn't without the other. )

You're their classmate, so at least make class enjoyable for them... you're their friend after all.

( :) )

Crona-san, if you need anything, you can ask Rokkun.

You bring me food, and you let me hide under a desk! [ Teachers don't do either of these things! ] I haven't done anything wrong yet...right?

[ First they've heard of consequences for them getting it wrong...they're nervous now. ]

Rokuro would need to come up to my desk to help me instead of sitting alone... It's okay if he doesn't want too. I don't really know how to deal with people feeling obligated. [ If he just helps them because Komeada asks, it would be weird. ]

[ Wait, he brings Crona food but not—-

never mind, doesn't matter. still not touching that friend thing ]

If you need help, I don't mind, but you'll have to come to my desk, Crona.

[ Otherwise he's imagining them calling for him from across the room and expecting him to come over and sit on the ground where they're lying. ]

You've done nothing wrong, as I said, you answer correctly so you have no reason to be punished!

( he'll pat crona's head with his mechanical hand to reassure them. )

Hmm... why don't you two push your desks together, that way you can sit next to each other all the time... ( he nods. ) your teacher seemed pretty lax about it last time.

( the way crona wants rokkun to come to their desk, the way crona has to come to rokkun's desk... why don't they just meet in the middle? )

Punishment...I can't deal with punishment??? I like having all my nails and my nose not being broken, if I had to do schoolwork without nails I'd get the paper all bloody and I couldn't even read numbers. Can I just keep doing a good job?

[ The headpats aren't helping...Komeada why. They're not a good student at anything else...they're gonna mess up hope eventually. ]

Push together? But then I'd have to sit at the desk... [ The floor..its their home. They shake their head with a sigh, frowning up at them both. ] It's okay Komeada, you don't have to try so hard to make us get along. Rokuro seems okaaaaay. Scary, but okay!

[ If they forced the scary lonely guy in the back to just sit next to him, maybe that would make class even scarier, without Komeada around. If he says he'll help if he asks...then maybe Crona will, if they feel really desperate. ]

Sensei ended up kicking us out last time, Nagito.

[ Lax, maybe, but only to an extent and talking with Crona during class time isn't going to do them any favors.

...

looks over at Crona ]

How am I scary?

[ his image as a good(?) kind(?) senpai ]
