[Hello, didn't you miss this voice, Mayfield?]

Good morning. I am sure someone can tell me where in the elementary school there are detention rooms, yes? So far, I have not been able to spot any such facilities on the school grounds.

[Guess who hasn't noticed that he was droned for quite a while and simply thinks that it is the next

[ The last time she had so much as heard from Russia was when he was sneaking up on her, but still, seeing an old friend again was always nice … even if it was in a place as unpleasant as Mayfield. ]

Uhm, to be honest, I wasn't at the elementary school for very long, but I don't remember ever seeing any detention rooms while I was there.

[ then again, she'd also gone out of her way to avoid detention since it sounded highly unpleasant. ]

[sellchelles]

They're probably for her hair.

[burnmycapital]

Is her hair too weak to stay on her head over night?

[sellchelles]

[ she bites her bottom lip tight to stop herself from laughing at that mental image aloud ]

She would definitely need a wig if that were the case.

I bet she was just trying to curl her hair.

[burnmycapital]

I will ask her if I can find her again.

Isn#t that done with hot irons normally?

[sellchelles]

Y-yeah … but some people like the old-fashioned way, I guess.

[burnmycapital]

Have you ever tried it?

[sellchelles]

Wi, I have.

It's a little uncomfortable, but honestly, the hot iron can sometimes be just as bad if you're as clumsy as I am.

[burnmycapital]

Why did you do it yourself?

[You go to a barber or hairdresser for that!]

[sellchelles]

I thought I would become a little more self-sufficient if I could learn to do it on my own. [ but that went about as well as her endeavors in the kitchen ]

[burnmycapital]

You don't need to be self-sufficient if you have friends.

[See how well that turned out after the end of the Soviet Union, with most of his factories having been built in the Baltics, the best farmland being in Belarus and Poland and Ukraine, and similar things...]

[sellchelles]

It's kind of hard to meet new people sometimes, though.

[ so everyone should come to her house and boost her economy while they're at it ]

[burnmycapital]

You could try to talk to them more. Ask your friends to introduce you to their friends, or travel a lot. Or get a few pen pals.

[sellchelles]

It sure would be nice to see the world, but at the same time, the world seems like a scary place if you don't know what you're doing …
