doing that positive role model thing

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

[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).]

Perhaps, but I'd rather not fight. I'm far more content reading and researching.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but you can't just be a pushover either.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

No one else has considered me a 'wuss', as you put it. Furthermore, not everyone here fights.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

It's not about fighting. It's about defending yourself enough so you can get away.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Hmm...

[he hasn't done this in a while, but he manages to make a...translucent heartless illusion, albeit a shaky one.]

I suppose I could practice a bit.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*blinks at the illusion*

Yeah, I think so. I know Zexion could make some pretty lifelike illusions.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

[...and the illusion poofs!]

I'll at least consider it.

That being said, what have you been doing recently? I see that you're no longer hiding among the stables.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

Well... I couldn't stay there forever. And I can't neglect the kids.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...You're still hiding, then?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

... keeping a low profile. That sounds better than hiding.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Perhaps, but July isn't for another month or so, Ri. Is it truly necessary now?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

... I suppose not. I was just being cautious. Racking up the good karma, you know?

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Ri, I still doubt that anything devastating will occur.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

*flails*

Don't say that! You'll jinx me!

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

...Well, alright. Do you still intend to celebrate?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

I haven't decided yet for sure, but if things look good, I probably will. Maybe.

*looks around nervously like he'll be attacked*

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Even if something were to occur, I doubt it would be anything more than this world's...unique sense of humor.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

... or it could be an all out Heartless attack that's horribly traumatic. Or I could end up a girl again. Or dead. Or a dead girl being attacked by Heartless.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

... Isn't that a bit too extravagant?

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

And this place is sadistic.

[radiantprodigy.livejournal.com]

Be that as it may, I doubt it's done anything quite as sadistic as what you've just described.

[windup-boytoy.livejournal.com]

I'm not taking any chances.
