[ text is easier when you are a bit of a coward and hate facing your issues. So Kaneki is using text! ]

I know it's normal for people to come and go, and sometimes to come back. But how normal is it that some of those people don't remember being here? Specially if they spent years here, I don't understand how memories can vanish just like that.

I was told multiple-universes exist, so maybe that person who was here isn't really me. I wonder where he went to, though, and if he can come back. I think it's a bit unfair to the people left behind who knew him, but I really don't think I'm him. I'm sorry about that, we can be friends again but we would have to start over.

I'm thinking about going back to college but I'm not sure what to expect from this place. Has anyone tried it? Do I need to do anything special in order to enroll or do I just show them my imPort tattoo? [ he is being a bit cheeky, but can you blame him ]

I'm sorry. I don't know much about multiple universes, except what I've read in scifi books.

But college sounds interesting. Has anyone told you how to enroll yet?

It's alright, I don't know anything either, just what other people told me.

No, not really. I mean, the website explains how to do it but I think it's for people from this world, they don't mention imPorts. I was thinking of going there tomorrow to ask.

Still, I wish that I could help. It must be stressful to have to consider.

And I wonder what the difference would be for imPorts.

Do you think we would have to take an exam?

Thank you. I don't think people know much about why and how it all happens, though. Even those who have been here for a while.

I'm not sure. Everyone believes what we can do and have studied as long we are Registered imPorts, so I was wondering if it's the same with college. I think it'd be easier to see us as "exchange students" or something like that, but I'm not sure if that will happen.

I wouldn't mind taking an exam, though.

Yeah, an exam would be fair. College comes after high school, after all.

[Which is a problem for Atsushi, but he's too embarrassed to admit it right away.]

It sounds fun when you put it that way.

Being an exchange student to America sounds so impressive in books. I never imagined I would be in a situation where I could be an exchange student myself.

Plus it'd be fair to all the students who are at the school as well. [ Kaneki doesn't want to just be given a degree, he'd like to actually study for it ]

It sounds like a situation from a movie, right? I think it could be fun, plus it's always a good way to get to know the culture more, too.

And people from that culture. [ though kaneki is too shy and most likely he will be a wallflower and the loner weird imPort kid ]

It would be nice to make friends who aren't imPorts.

Do you know what you want to study? I looked at a brochure and there were so many options.

I just hope they will treat us normally. I was a literature freshman back home, so I'm hoping I can do that again. Do you have any idea what you'd like to study?

I'm sure that they would. We'd all be students.

Actually, literature was what interested me too. I used to read a lot when I was at the orphanage.

If I could learn more about the books that kept me company, I think I'd be really happy.

We are Hero students. Or something like that? Im sure it will be fine though. I always read a lot, my house is covered in books. So since I was little, I knew this is what I'd like to study. If you want, we can go check the university together and look at the literature courses they offer? Also learn how to enroll in them, of course.

What do you do with a degree in literature? I never imagined it was an option.

Oh and yes! I would like that a lot. It wouldn't be any trouble to you, would it, Kaneki-san?

I was studying to be an editor.
You can also be a translator, maybe follow media and journalism, teaching, advertising, teacher, proofreading... there is a lot.

Not at all. I'd be happy to have some company, too.

I didn't realize there was so much
you could do with literature.

Then, please! When would you like to visit? I'm flexible at work these days.

Any day of the week works for me, my boss is being flexible and says he won't mind letting me take days off if I have to. We could go tomorrow if you'd like.

Tomorrow?

Yes, let's do it! I'll ask for the time off right now!

They've been very forgiving towards me as I get settled here. I'm glad our jobs are so understanding.

I think they know it can be rough to just suddenly be sent to a whole new world. [ plus, they are "heroes" right? ] I can meet you tomorrow by Nonah's Porter? I heard Nonah has good universities, so I was thinking of starting there.

[ ooc: hii! Would you like to log this or handwave? I'm fine with both! ]

Alright, sounds good. I'll meet you there.

Thank you very much for inviting me!

[ooc: Hello~! I am fine either way. I can tag Kaneki's open log, if you'd like?]

See you soon, Nakajima-san.

[ ooc: oohhh that works as well! feel free to, and if you need a specific prompt, let me know (= ]
