[ She hesitates-- maybe because she was mulling over his words, or maybe because she's not sure if she wants to answer, but she does end up answering him with a slightly downcast glaze to her expression. ]
...it's frustrating to be here when you know people need you somewhere else. But if we really are stuck here, the best we can do is use the time here to learn things that can help when we get home while trying to find our way back. Or at least that's what I think.
Anytime. [he seems a little relieved that what he's said isn't written off, at least.] I think strength can be found in all kinds of places. Especially when you don't know you need it. So...I hope you do.
that is to say, when she asks taichi seems to pause for a moment, thinking this over carefully. a conflict, huh? conflicts are...complicated, to say the least, and he looks at the soccer ball more than at otome while he debates what to say.
...in the end...]
Ah...I can't decide if I want to take another class or not. The enrollment period's still open, I think, but it's hard to pick.
[yeah. this is also just a bad deflection since taichi doesn't like school but that's fine.]
[ She's not about to try and ask him to share anything deep. She's known him for a couple of days, and only that, and she knows from experience that teenage boys open up on their own time or they act like feral kittens if you prod them. ]
...to be honest, no, but it sort of feels like that taking them is one of our best chances at getting some answers. And I'm still trying to figure out why I'm on the Dean's list in the first place.
It doesn't have to be anything sound, I guess. I wanted to see what other people thought since we're all from different situations anyway. Maybe something would stand out.
Well, I don't trust any of it, so... please be careful, all right? The problems I've dealt with aren't quite as confusing as this situation, but I'd like to think I've developed a sense for when things feel off.
This is both confusing and familiar to me, so I'll be fine. You be careful too though. None of us should get too comfortable just yet. Not until we know what to expect.

But fair's fair. Any conflict I might be able to lend an ear to?

I have a lot of questions for this bear if I ever meet him in person though. This is just at the top of the list now.
