doing that positive role model thing

[He's sitting in the library, in that little corner that he's set up as a kind of classroom. There are a number of books stacked on the table, some simple math problems on the chalkboard, and he's sitting and grading a workbook with a red pen. Maybe he should take a break eventually, but right now, he's dealing with multiplication.]

I really need to get those times tables...



[OOC: Feel free to interrupt! I forget whoall Ri promised to teach (besides his Little Brother).]

Six is about the age one should learn how to read, yes. Kairi knows a bit herself... Children enjoy using their imaginations. Perhaps you could encourage him to learn by mentioning the possibilities of reading?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Well, I could probably get him to read, but he getting him to learn math will be impossible.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

You could always inadvertently teach him. Perhaps treat it similarly to a game or use visuals.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Hmmm... I'll try that. Though, I'd have to catch him first.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Catch him? Why so?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

... because 'bug is always running around and playing.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Ah, similar to Kairi, then, although recently she's remained close to me, due to unfortunate circumstances.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Eh? What happened?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

[...sigh.]

I was killed.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

WHAT?! WHY DO ALL MY FRIENDS KEEP DYING ALL AT THE SAME TIME?!

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

It was a few weeks ago, but... well, I assure you that it wasn't intentional.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

But it's still horrible. I'm glad you're... uh. Better now.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Likewise. It's one experience that I'd rather not repeat.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

I've never actually died here. But I didn't like it when I did either.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

It wasn't a pleasant experience, by any means, temporary or not.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

So... who do I need to put on my list of people to kill?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

The heartless from before, I suppose. She's but another Kairi, albeit one lacking purity.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

That same one? Man, what did you do to piss her off so much?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Absolutely nothing; she seems to merely enjoy causing trouble at the misfortune of others.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

... I knew I should've eaten her when I had the chance.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...Eaten her, Ri?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah. I can absorb Darkness, remember? I ate the... uh. Nobody-you.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Even so, she would likely return.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

But I'll have taught her a lesson!

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

The question, then, is whether or not she'll be persuaded.
