Block 001 [Text]

[Normally this is something Genda would never do, but from what he's figured out from just skimming the network the pool of information is a lot more widespread then just one city. That will take too long in regards to one objective.]


The standard syllabus that I've been capable of finding seems overly generic, and hardly tailored for those who did not grow up in this culture. Is this schooling mandatory or are there specialized accelerated programs specifically for those not from here?

[A few moments later, as if added as an after thought.]

Who scored the second point in the Teikoku vs. Raimon elimination match, and what was the final score?

[A pity this is a text based conversation, because there may or may not have been a sorta smile there in regards to Kidou collecting information. He wouldn't be surprised if his former captain knew more then some people who have been here for years.]

Kidou is very thorough when a project is presented to him. Even off the field.


Thank you for your time and help Amada.

[amadaman]

Of course.

If you feel like playing soccer, you can let Kidou know he has captain's permission to invite you to Nonah Middle School at any time. You don't have to join if you decide not to but the field's always open.

[The slight good mood vanishes a bit as he mulls over that message. He had been ignoring how much he wants to be on the same team as Kidou again, but that offer is a painful reminder of that.]

I'll take such under advisement.


[Meaning he's not going to say a single word about this to Kidou just on the off chance it's not actually something the other wants.]

[...

Ken's no mind reader, but there's just something so unenthused about this response, compared to the other boys he's spoken to. He ventures a guess.]

Just so you know. And you can ignore me if I'm wrong.


But Kidou's been here since last August. Not alone, but six months is a long time to go without being able to see people you usually get to see regularly. I've watched him pretty closely over those six months, and he tries to hide it but he gets pretty lonely. He needs his friends.

So I'm glad that someone he's familiar with is here now. Someone who knows him a lot better than me, who can help look out for him. He's happy to have you. I'm sure of it.

[There's a lot in that text that skews things far more then he was actually prepared for, while cementing other thoughts in a position that may not be healthy for him in the long run.

Six months, in this place. With few if anyone from Raimon with him? With only one person from Inazuma Japan? There's guilt there even though he knows there's nothing he could have done about such. In his mind it's barely been hours since he had seen him on the soccer field.]

I'm likely not the correct person in which such confidence should be placed in.

[Both in regards to actually knowing Kidou as well as Amada thinks he should, and that Kidou would actually want to actually be around him for longer then absolutely necessary.]

I'll take the risk

But regardless of what you and Kidou end up doing, I've been here for two years now.
If you have anything you're confused about or need help with and you feel bad asking Kidou, let me know. I might as well make myself useful.

[beastfang]

I'll keep such in mind.


[That's all you're going to get out of him in regards to this entire conversation.]
