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).]

U! An' then a .. a um ... G!
[G is another letter Sora really struggles to write down.]

*he gets a pencil and another piece of paper, then slowly writes a 'g' so you can see and copy*

Good job, 'bug. It'll get better the more you practice.

My name is Ri, 'bug. What letter do you think my name starts with?
no subject
[thinks about this for a minute, comparing the sound to his own name.]
Oh! A 'R!'
no subject
no subject
[Sora is so proud of himself.]
no subject
Good try, 'bug. It's an 'i'. R-I spells 'Ri'.
no subject
[scrawls out an 'I' and scrutinizes it.]
no subject
*he writes out 'Riku' on the paper*
R-I-K-U. Riku. That has an 'i', too.
no subject
But, but, the letters in my name make sense! Soooorrraaaa.
[points at the 'i' in 'Riku.']
That doesn't make any sense, 'cause it sounds like a 'eeeeee.' It's 'sposed to be a 'e.'
no subject
You're very smart for noticing that, 'bug! You're right, the 'i' in my name doesn't sound like a normal 'i'. But depending on the word, the letter 'i' can sound different. 'I' normally sounds like 'eye', but it can also sound like 'ee', or even 'eh'. Like this...
*writes out the word 'fish'*
F-I-S-H. Fish. There's an 'i'. But you don't say 'f-EYE-sh'. And you don't say 'f-EE=sh'. You say 'f-eh-sh'. Fish.
no subject
Oh .. Well how do I know which sound is which?
no subject
no subject
[stares intently at the paper in front of him, still boggling. after a minute he points at Ri's handwriting.]
Fish!
no subject
*thinks*
How about this: you can sit on my lap, and we'll read a story together, that way you see the words while I read them. And you can even try and read some of the story, too.

[puffs up in pride, even though he hasn't done anything yet.]

C'mon, 'bug. This is a good book to start with, and with good pictures.
