[However a book is capable of recording a scene, it's doing it, propped up on its side from the other side of Remus's room. He sits on his bed, opening an envelope, a rather old but still pretty dignified owl flying its way out the window, presumably just having delivered the mail. If the viewer is looking closely, they might be able to spot the

What's the matter?

[video forever!]

[lycanthropy_101]

[This is a voice that Remus doesn't recognize. He peers at the book] Ehm, well. See, the thing is that this letter... It says that they've just made me Prefect at school.

[voice forever]

[adorkable_son]

What's a Prefect? [Akira sounds young, as he is only 13.] You seemed...disappointed.

[lycanthropy_101]

Ah, well. [Remus notices how young the person he's talking to sounds] It means that I have to set an example for my friends, and help maintain the rules. Which wouldn't be too bad, except for the fact that my friends are never going to listen to me, and I'm going to make a horrible prefect because of it.

[adorkable_son]

[Akira laughs very softly.] Well it's not really your fault if they don't listen is it?

You could be a good example, couldn't you?

[lycanthropy_101]

[Remus humphs] I can be a good example. That doesn't mean that they're going to follow it. They're going to try and take advantage of this, and they'll think that I'm going to let them get away with anything they want to, but I can't do that. I can't yell at them either, though. I. [Remus groans, putting his head in his hands] This is such a bad idea...

[adorkable_son]

Hm, I don't know what you could do then. Maybe they'll respect your position?

[lycanthropy_101]

That's still a pretty big "maybe" there...

[adorkable_son]

I suppose so. Good luck.

[lycanthropy_101]

Thanks.

Oh, I'm Remus, by the way. Remus Lupin. I... I don't think we've spoken on here before.

[adorkable_son]

No, I haven't talked to many people. They are strangers...I'm not really supposed to speak to people I don't know. I'm Touya Akira. Pleasure to meet you.

[lycanthropy_101]

Touya? That's an interesting name. Japanese, is it?

I'm sorry. I can't help wondering, though. I mean, I'm a stranger too. Is it alright that you're talking to me?

[adorkable_son]

Yes, that's right. I live in Japan.

I...probably not but I was distracted while doing my homework. I suppose I got carried away. I'm sorry if I've disturbed you, Lupin-san.

[lycanthropy_101]

Oh, no. It's not a problem at all. I was merely asking. And please, it's Remus.

[adorkable_son]

It's not like me to get distracted, Remus-san.

[lycanthropy_101]

Well, why not?
