I just transferred.

[ A short - and slightly blunt - statement. It's almost given as some sort of disclaimer in the sense of "so don't expect me to really know anything just yet" more than anything else.. it's probably also why a proper introduction is missing. He's not the social type, and he sure doesn't like drawing attention to himself to begin with, so maybe he's just hoping to keep it as short as possible.

A small pause, as if he's thinking of how to word something, but then he just sighs. He probably shouldn't take up too much time with this or lunch break is over, huh. ]

What do you do when your annoying roommate just won't shut up. [ Not even bothering to filter it from said roommate. He gives exactly zero shits.

(Also yes, that's apparently the whole question.) ]

Sounds like I'll have to skip on that one. I want to ignore him, not get all buddy-buddy with him.

[ He's not here to make friends!! But then again, that's what he always says and then it inevitably does end up happening. Just let him live with his denial a little longer. ]

Learning compassion for others doesn't necessarily mean forming close relationships with them. It's a matter of understanding.

[deceases]

What's there to understand about that guy. He's annoying, I already get that. [ Don't be so prickly just because you're tsun as hell, Natsuno. ]

[echoing_sutras]

There's always more to understand.

[deceases]

In this case that sounds more omnious than anything else.

[ He's not sure he wants to know what "more" there is about his roomie. ]

[echoing_sutras]

Come ooooon. Just give it a shot. If you still don't get along, you can put in a request to change roommates. But if you don't at least try to find some common ground, you'll never know what could have been.

[deceases]

Yeah, that's right. All the headaches I could have avoided, all the lack of sleep just since that guy won't shut up.. I can't believe I almost let that pass by me just now.

[ Sarcastic, of course. But once he's done saying that, he instead inhales a deep breath, pulling a hand through his hair. ]

.. I'm not going to cause a ruscus by putting in a request right away. [ Because the last thing he wants to do is pull even more attention to himself by being That Guy Who Immediately Wanted To Change Rooms.. ] So don't worry, if you're apparently so insistent about other people's business.

[echoing_sutras]

You're the one that asked for help.

[deceases]

Help how I could try to ignore him, yeah. Not help on how I could give him chances and become friends with him instead.

[ Allergic to friendship and all that. ]

[echoing_sutras]

Consider it a bonus, then!

[deceases]

I'll pass. This isn't exactly the kind of bonus I'm looking for.
