♥ all of the things

[priceofmagic]

[ phone  ♥ ]
Um... hello! I'm sorry to bother you guys all of a sudden! But um~!

I want to learn! Lots of things! I don't know much about math. Or science. Or literature stuff. Or that music note stuff. Or um. Much. Are there any people who know about those things? I want to learn how to do them! And how to play sports! And card games! And everything! Since I've got time to learn those sorts of things here and I think it would be fun! Maybe I'll even get a bit smart...er.

Um but... if that's troublesome... then I don't want to burden anyone... I'm just curious. I'd like to learn...

[ After school, Satou can be found in the park. She isn't doing anything right away. Just staring around, debating what to begin with. When she spots you, however, she stops staring around blankly and walks over quickly. ]  Um-! Hello um-! Are you... are you busy today? [ This is when you should run. ]

I will certainly try my best for you.

[priceofmagic]

I'll try my best to learn from you... Thank you for putting up with me!

Oh- I'm Satou! By the way!

[heartmaestro]

It is nice to meet you, Satou-chan. My name is Kotomi.

[priceofmagic]

Kotomi-san? It's a pleasure to meet you! Um... do you attend school?

[heartmaestro]

K-- [Kotomi-chan. Call me Kotomi-chan. It's an automatic reflex at this point, and she has to actually tell herself to not say it.]

I am a chemistry teacher at the highschool.

[priceofmagic]

T...Teacher?

[ Not again! She disrespected a teacher by acting casually again!

Satou almost smacks her head against the nearby wall. ]

I-I'm sorry, Ms Kotomi! I've been disrespectful!

[heartmaestro]

You've been fine. And please don't...call me 'Ms. Kotomi'.

[priceofmagic]

Ah um-! Yes, of course!

Um... What would you prefer to be called, if I may ask?

[heartmaestro]

...Kotomi-chan.

[priceofmagic]

Kotomi-chan? ... Mm! Okay then! I'll call you that from now on! Kotomi-chan! That makes us friends now, right?

[heartmaestro]

...I suppose it does. [She says this in a pondering matter. As if it were a math problem she was trying to figure out.]

[priceofmagic]

I mean! If that's okay? I don't want to impose on you...

[heartmaestro]

...you are not imposing. [She pauses.] It is merely...most of the people who I ask to call me that think I'm odd.

[priceofmagic]

I don't find it odd at all! It's friendly! Kotomi-chan is very friendly and kind! It's adorable, actually! Kotomi-chan is adorable!

[heartmaestro]

I...thank you. [She sounds oddly grateful for such a small compliment.]

[priceofmagic]

You don't need to thank me for something like that! I should be the one thanking you, Kotomi-chan.

[heartmaestro]

[She hesitates once more. Go Go Gadget Subject Change.] Well, ah...if there's anything in specific you'd like to learn about...
