A Decision [Video]

[now_i_know]

[The video feed opens to a girl with shimmering silver-blue hair and deep red eyes. Her fingers come together as she looks nervously into the camera for a second.]

U-Um... hello! I'm Catherine Fujishima a-and... well, you guys might have seen me over the past week? If... if you didn't that's okay. I was just a guest here and I know you guys were busy.

[As she gets going her pacing becomes a bit livelier as she gains more confidence.]

So, anyways, yeah! I just wanted everybody to know that I've made a decision: I'm gonna join this school! It... it seems like it'd be a lot of fun learning and stuff. I've been told I'm gonna be joining the 10th grade, though I probably gots a lot of work to catch up on.

I hope that we can all get along!

[She bows politely, her ponytail following her lowering head.]

Oh, yeah! And if anybody doesn't mind helping me catch up, I'd really appreciate it! I'm could use a tutor for math, an' science, an' English, an' composition, an' history. But mostly the first three.

Hey, between your ignorance and all the stuff I forget, I'm sure we'd make up something that was close to the real thing!

[She smiles warmly.]

Sure, I don't mind. But I think we should ask your friend first before we get anything figured, you know?

I mean what if we end up hatin' each other? I'm a pretty strong personality!

[presto_turn]

Well, I just meant that I could introduce you.

[He can't help but laugh there, giving a small shake of the head.]

But I don't think I need to worry about that? Tenma is, too, really. [And Shindou's pretty sure you'd have to hate puppies and sunshine to not get along with his kouhai/captain.] Anyway, here, let me send you my student e-mail so you can get in touch if you need to, after you've got your schedule...

[He leans over his phone for a second, and right after Labrys will get a text message popping up with an e-mail address.]

[now_i_know]

Sounds good!

[She gladly takes the message and starts writing on her wrist... in permanent marker. What, pencil doesn't works so good right now, okay? ;x]

You know, I know last time we talked I was super nervous, but now I can't wait for classes to start. It'll be nice to actually start hating them again!

[presto_turn]

[But will it wash off alright...? (Forgive Shindou if he stares just a little.)]

The classes here aren't that bad. Most of the teachers here are very understanding.. some of them were students here, before.

It's usually good just having something normal every week.

[now_i_know]

[She has ways...]

Yeah... I was starting to get to a place where I didn't even think normal existed.

Or maybe that became my normal?

[And that's a disturbing thought.]
