WEEK ONE
[ Well that Orientation... happened. Whether you feel more informed or not, the truth remains. Here you are, within Fayflower University. You have your run of the campus, indoors and out.
There's also your tablets to play with. There are several apps-- and even a game! They didn't leave you without some entertainment. The music is a bit dated though...
And should you wish, there's still time to talk to the "staff" in a more... private setting. The office. They're not hard to find. Well-- your Professor, Han and Megumi aren't. Oswald is a bit more... difficult. ]

[ He silently listens as Rebecca talks. Listens as she describes a woman who might as well been her little sister. How because of recent events, they're apart. And it hits close to home. His brothers are still home last time he checked, but what if they're gone one day? Even if he was never kidnapped, his brothers might move on with life and leave. Go on with their own lives. Of course that's not easy to adjust to. It's something he doesn't think he'll ever be ready for. ]
[ Osomatsu knows he's got to get used to it someday. He knows he has to let them go at some point. But right now? It's difficult. Especially given the current circumstances. ]
[ For now, he'll just uncurl himself and pick up the cup with both hands. ]
...Probably.
no subject
[ The names he'd yelled out the other day, they were impossible not to hear. The resemblance to his own, his profile- it's not hard to put together. ]
It's...okay, if it hurts. You're allowed to hurt. [ Mentally, she takes a deep breath. This...is the sort of thing she wants to say to Ashton. This is just practice, right? ] To deny that, it's impossible.
no subject
...Yeah. No shit I miss them. [ To say Osomatsu misses them would be an understatement. ]
[ And of course he's allowed to hurt. Of course he knows that. But he's not allowed to let people see it so easily. He's supposed to be the big one. So why is-- ]
[ Before he knows it, tears sting his eyes. He hurriedly wipes them with his arm, lest Rebecca sees it. He hates this. He hates being so weak. He's supposed to be better than this. ]
...D-Don't tell anybody about this, Rebecca-san. [ He tries his damn hardest to stop it, but his voice still cracks. ] About me being like this. I-I don't wanna be such a downer...
[ He doesn't want to be a shitty big brother. ]
no subject
My lips are sealed, Osomatsu. ...Anyone gives you shite for it, I'd give them a few wallops to begin with.
no subject
...Thanks.
[ He blows on the tea to cool it down slightly, then takes a sip. ]
[ ...Well, Rebecca was right about the tea not being very good. But he'll keep sipping on it. ]
no subject
[ Then that's that. Rebecca also takes a gentle sip of her awful, awful tea.
This...is a good thing here, isn't it? Helping in what little way she can. It's good, right, Isabella? You'd think this was good, wouldn't you?
She'll never get an answer, but she'll keep asking. ]
