[Just one, short, terse question:]

What's so great about love anyway?

[Action; Elementary School]

[There is a little girl in a floofy pink dress picking at her lunch and looking generally discontent. Approach?]

[hystorical]

[Hi. Your history teacher's going to wander over to where you're having your lunch and give you a little wave, her usual gentle smile on her face.]

[redthenightless]

Is it always worth it?

[hystorical]

... [that gives her pause, for a moment.] Not if it doesn't work out.

[redthenightless]

Hmph. And it doesn't always work out, does it?

[hystorical]

Not always.

... Is this related to someone from your household?

[redthenightless]

[Glaaaaaare. But eventually she answers]

...yes.

[hystorical]

[a brief pause... It can't be Patchouli's relationship with Marisa, right? She'd never have thought the two had the same interests as Mokou and her did.

... Not that that was the point, of course.]

Ah... I see. I take it you would rather not reveal who it is?

[redthenightless]

I don't really like talking about it.

{Just thinking about it makes her mad! And maybe a bit uncomfortable and insecure]

[hystorical]

Ah... I understand.

[awkwarddddd]

Well... How are you doing in your classes? I assume they should be no trouble for you whatsoever?

[redthenightless]

For the most part. They're rather boring.

[hystorical]

I suppose that's to be expected for one that already knows all that is taught here.

[With the exception of American History, of course. And possibly a few other subjects, but obviously Keine would concentrate on her own subject.]

What about my class, in specific? I'd like your opinion on how it is conducted.

[redthenightless]

[Aaaand a lot of the modern sciences. FUCK THAT SHIT]

Hmm? Well, it seems orderly enough... but I don't really listen that closely.

[hystorical]

I suppose there's not much else I could do about that then. [going to check her watch, meanwhile. end of lunchtime bell soon?] Thank you.

[redthenightless]

Mm. Well, at the least, the kids who do seem to like you. [Though a lot of those were drones, but whatev]

[hystorical]

Indeed. It's encouraging to know that the children are at least enjoying my presence.

[redthenightless]

[And the bell rings, with Remilia having barely touched her food. Not that she cares.]

Mm. Well, enjoy the rest of your day. [Though she seems only vaguely less angry than the start of the conversation, she means this more or less sincerely. Or at least, not sarcastically.]
