homework

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[Sora struck a deal recently, and it happens to be one he's really determined to uphold. a small section of the library has fallen into slight disarray: books are scattered across the floor, the chalkboard is covered in scrawlings -- most of them are of his name, but other names and random letters of the alphabet are scattered here and there.]

[right now he's on a nearby chair, out cold with his face pressed against an open children's book. learning is tough -- hopefully no one wanted to use the book after him, either, Sora has been known to drool when he sleeps.]

[This itty bitty Ienzo's curiosity got the best of him, he wants to know about these funny round ears he keeps seeing people with. He's a bit cautious in his approach but now that he's sure Sora's asleep he just has to touch those ears. Just be touching and squeezing, he thinks they feel weird as well as look odd.]

[bats at Ienzo's hand and mumbles something, rolling over and sleeping on.]

[cagedfox]

[jumped a little at the movement, he's not entirely sure if he wants the other boy to wake up yet but then again maybe it'd be easier to just ask rather than poking and prodding. Not that this stops him from almost immediately returning to his ear investigation.]

...weird.
[pulls the funny round ear a little to get a better look at it]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Stooop!

[waves his arms a little, and tries to hide his ears from any further poking.]

[cagedfox]

[Ienzo yelps and skitters back a bit for all he knows, Sora might be some freaky alien]
sorry?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[not really, although Sora is rolling back over to stare at Ienzo sleepily.]

Who're you?

[cagedfox]

[but he doesn't know that He's being a bit cautious again, and not entirely willing to go back to being as close as he was before.]

'm Ienzo

[tilts his head curiously.]

Are you a animal?

[cagedfox]

[tilts his head too.]
no...
[shifts around nervously]

...Why doesn't anyone else here have a tail?

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

... I dunno! Why do you got one, Ienzo?

[cagedfox]

dunno, I was born with mine, everyone else was too... I think.
Axel's got one, Namine's got one, Even, mom, I didn't know some people didn't.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Wow, neat! You're the first person I've met that's got a tail!

What's it like?

[cagedfox]

hmmm
[He has to think about that one because the idea of someone not having a tail hadn't really occurred to him.]
it's.... warm? I dunno, it's weird thinking about not having it. Dunno what it's like having a different tail either. Sometimes Even's tail made a good pillow... [Just sort of trails off after mentioning Even, going quiet and starts picking at his fur.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Wow, you got your own pillow! That's really cool!

[cagedfox]

[Realises he went quiet suddenly and tries to pick up again.]
Makes a good blanket too!
[Tries to smile and push Even out of his mind.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Really? Maybe I should ask for a tail for my birthday!

[cagedfox]

I don't think it works that way.
Be nice if it did, it's weird seeing no one else with a tail, and all those funny round ears that don't move.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

[puts his hands over his ears.]

You think my ears are funny?

[cagedfox]

I dunno? I just never saw people with ears like that before I came here.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Really?

So which one of us is the weird one, then?

[cagedfox]

That's a good question...
[he thinks for a bit]
'cause where I come from everyone's sorta like this, but here everyone's sorta like you.
[Distinctly not going to admit he's almost completely convinced they're all aliens.]

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Maybe we're both weird!

[cagedfox]

That works.

[sorabug.livejournal.com]

Yeah! We're both big weirdos!
