To... Japan!

[key_bearer]

Hey Satoshi!! I'm just letting you know I've got to go signal to head over to your place now! Let me know when it's okay for me to drop in, I mean, with time zone differences or whatever... And I'll be coming in by Floo, and so... well, yeah, you know how that works. So just be ready to hear something from me if I end up in the wrong place! ^_^;;

*examines the plug for a while* plug... I keep forgetting about those! I guess that explains why it was put in that part of the house to begin with.

But right!!! TV can wait!! Though I don't even have half of my favorite series, I guess there were a few more then I thought stashed away. *Sits down (or kneels cause sitting cross legged in a yukata like that is NOT a good idea) on the rug and pulls a pile over to the table* This series is great!!! *Satoshi takes the first volume from the top of the pile. Though the comic piles look messy they're actually pretty well organized on closer inspection, in each pile the first issue is on top, and the series progresses as you go down the pile... similar genres even seem to be grouped together. There seem to be a lot of adventure stories around... what muggles might call 'high fantasy' to be more precise*

*Satoshi flipped though the book* Though I really do wonder if muggle schools are really like this. *Satoshi put the book down on the table so Sora could 'read' it too. In the book a young wizard was being sent off to live with some of his muggle relatives, where he must attend a muggle school. The book gets many points on muggle life correct... if a bit outdated.
*The backgrounds in the comic are stationary just like a regular comic book (well a bit animated like leaves and grass blowing in the wind and the odd animal moving about), but the characters move from cell to cell as you turn the pages actually acting out the scenes, and speaking the diologue.*

[[And sometimes calculated as well :P Chika and Mori are sooo serious he's gotten used to playing up the easy-going, foolish side of himself attempting to get those them smile every now and then.
Though when he's out of his element like this they are just honest mistakes.]]

*Sora looks over at all the comic books with a high level of interest and watches all the little scenes play out from page to page. He chuckles softly at the comic about the wizard in the Muggle school.*

Well, I only went to a Muggle school for a little while when I was younger, but I've seen TV shows about it. And it seems like it's... kinda like this. Yeah! *gapes some more at the moving pictures, wizarding stuff always fascinates him*

These are so awesome! The Muggle ones are- Hang on. *crawls over to the table to retrieve one of the comics he brought and then crawls back. he flips it open to show Satoshi the mysterious non-moving pictures, woooo! this particular comic book is about pirates* Here, take a look. See?

((lol! ah well, he's still adorable))

[hyper_mori_jr]

COOL!! Are those pirates!!!

*Satoshi opens the book and looks at the page* The pictures! They're sooo artistic and not moving.... and the cells are all different sizes and shapes and.... there are words!!!!!!

*pauses* How do you read it?
*I'm assuming it's an American style comic instead of a manga , so it's pretty safe to assume Satoshi opened it at the wrong end... (most of Satoshi's are probably manga style... and since the magic ones pretty much guide him though the story, he never noticed the difference in the American ones)*

[[^^ yay!!! And Satoshi doesn't know how to read a muggle comic book :D]]

[key_bearer]

Yep! They sure are! *scoots a little closer to Satoshi so he can see the book too, laughing at all Satoshi's exclamations*

*blinks at the sudden question* ...Oh! Um, here. You read it from left to right, top to bottom, like this. *turns the comic book around as he explains, pointing at the pages as he goes* See?

((you'd be correct in assuming that! ^_^ Sora's got some manga as well, but he's started with the Western ones))

[hyper_mori_jr]

Ahhh, I see!! *Starts reading aloud from the comic, trying to make the voices as best he can*

[[feel free to have Sora join in ^^ Mori will probably turn up for introductions and maybe a lesson soon enough]]

[key_bearer]

*laughs and joins in, always doing the voice for the character opposite Satoshi so that the dialogues sound more real*

((whoohoo!!!))

[t_morinozuka]

*After a few books have been gone though Takashi Morinozuka (aka Mori, or Taka accord) came walking into the room in his Kendo uniform. He had noticed this room was somewhat louder than usual as he was about to get changed and decided it would be best to make his greetings.

Now he stood by the open door inwardly surprised, not by Sora (that much he expected) but rather by the comics that had somehow managed to take over the once sparsely furnished study room. We would have never guessed his brother had managed to collect so many.*

[hyper_mori_jr]

*Somehow noticing the silent entrance of his brother Satoshi looked up from the comics* Taka!!! I see you finished practice.

And Sora's here!! Isn't it great!!! *Satoshi grinned up at his big brother*

[key_bearer]

*looks up from the comic book they'd been reading and also grins up at Mori* Hey there! Haven't seen you in a little while.

[t_morinozuka]

*Mori nodded at Sora then though for a moment. Satoshi wasn't used to dealing with guests.*

Have you been shown around yet?

*Sora would be staying with them then next little while, it wouldn't do to have him getting lost because he was never shown around*

[key_bearer]

*blinks* Well... that Yoshio guy sorta showed me around a little bit on the way here... I wasn't really paying attention though... *brightens suddenly and jumps excitedly to his feet* Are you guys gonna give me the grand tour?

[hyper_mori_jr]

*Satoshi grins widely at Sora* SURE!!!!!!!!!! There are some really cool places around!! This hall is just the one me and Taka use!! There's also a hall just for guests and one for students and staff, and one for my parents *Satoshi just about grabs Sora and heads out the door before Mori puts a restraining hand on Satoshi's shoulder*

[t_morinozuka]

After I get changed. *Mori simply stated then went into one of the rooms along the hall (just about opposite Satoshi's)*

*Mori soon returned wearing a Yukata similar to Satoshi's only the colour was a bit darker and less patterned*

*Mori nodded to the two boys and allowed Satoshi to start the tour*

[hyper_mori_jr]

*Satoshi turned to Sora* READY????

[key_bearer]

*pumps his fists into the air* YEAH!

[hyper_mori_jr]

GREAT!! *they leave the room with all the comics and go out into the hall* The room we just left is the study room.... it's basically where me and Taka usually study.

Ah, and this one here *gestures to the door to the right of the study room* Is Mitsukuni's room. He sleeps over every now and then so he's got a room here.
This other one is Chika's. *Satoshi gestures to the one right across from Mitsukuni's room* He sleeps over sometimes too!! I hope he will sometime while you're here!!!

*Next they move a bit farther down the hall* This one is Taka's room. *This room is also on the right side of the hall right next to Mitsukuni's* And mine *Satoshi grinned as he pointed to his own, which was across the hall from Mori's room*

*Moving a little farther down the hall they came to the next pair of doors these two were the last before the hall let out into a bigger one* This room is empty but it's also a bed room. *Satoshi said as he pointed to the door next to Mori's room* And this room is your one!!! See right next to mine so we can stay up late telling scary stories!!

*Satoshi glances at his brother and decides to amend that comment* Well, not too late cause we've gotta get up early for classes. Speaking of which did you find the uniforms in the closet???
