[walkabout] Seriously?

[leftbehindagain]

Dragons? Really?

[As far as tone is distinguishable on the network, that's muttered, and very, very frustrated - but anyone who remembers Misericordia probably understands. When Naoki resumes, it's at a much more normal volume and tone.]

Anyway, we might as well get a check-in going. This is Naoki. We are definitely not in Harrogate, unless something went very, very wrong with Earth's climate since the last time.

If it turns out we're missing a substantial chunk of people, I can try reaching out to the others later this week.

The what now? Uh, I don't think so. They were American vampires.

[highsteaks]

Oh.

Well, the Koshien tournament is the big baseball tournament for high school teams here in Japan.

[tookashirototheknee]

Ah. I actually don't know that much about Japanese high school, sorry. Hell, I don't know much about normal high school that I haven't seen in movies.

[highsteaks]

Oh. Didn't you go to high school? But I thought you were old enough to be in college or something like that.

[tookashirototheknee]

Oh, well, I did go to school, but it was space military school. Definitely not your normal anything.

Not that Earth had much in the way of space military, mind. We were pre-contact before my mission got captured.

[highsteaks]

You went to a space school? That's so cool.

[tookashirototheknee]

Well, where else are people going to get trained for long-term missions? Gotta have some kind of school for that.

Um. Although, mostly I was bullied, but that's beside the point.

[highsteaks]

... oh. I guess that makes sense. That sucks that even space school has space bullies, though.
