[He's utterly exhausted, after Asuka nightmares, noctaere, warehouses and turning twenty-six. The strain shows around his eyes and in his voice. As a result, he's more caustic than not, and isn't thinking in terms of people's (mainly Sena's, in this case) feelings.]

If you're still alive, call me.

I've spoken to Iris, Ken, and Alice since that--ordeal began, but that's it. I'd like to know who needs funeral arrangements made up before the week is out.

I'm too old for this, this is not how I was expecting to spend my twenty-six--oh hell, it's still--[CLICK.]

He's done very well, but you can't force someone to learn; they have to be inclined to it.

I didn't count Japanese because I didn't learn it, per se. It's my native language.

Well learning it would make me a much more proper lady.

Takuuma is trying to teach me Japanese but I'm afraid I'm very poor at it.

This is true. It'll broaden the spectrum of who you can reach out to.

Well, I'm told Japanese is a very difficult language to learn. Especially since the languages you started with are all somewhat related. Japan is much further away from those places, so our language developed differently.

It's just like nothing I've ever heard before. But I only know phrases.

[slantedcross.livejournal.com]

Well, that's where everybody starts. It's still better than my English.

[madcuriosity.livejournal.com]

I've never heard your English.
