[Kokoro woke up in the early hours of the morning from a dead sleep. Something had pinged in the back of her head - thanks, health class! - has roused her poor brain.

She doesn't even have testes.]

Good morning. Did you knkw that there are tastebuds on the testicles?

I am missing the equipment, but in the bame of science, I need to know:

Will some of you fine, testicle-having specimens please dip your family jewels in soy sauce and tell me if you can taste it in your mouth?

I have to know if it's true.

Why would they ask you to step on them? That sounds stupid.

I just put up with it unless they get too loud. It's too much trouble trying to escape them.

[shutter_hime]

Maybe she was an M? I don't know. I didn't do it because it was weird.

Honestly, you should be able to not have to deal with that? The screamers are the worst, but if I caused a scene, there was a good chance my team would have to deal with it.

[getcloser]

Oh, it's a kink thing. Really weird.

They didn't give a shit until I started beating up the assholes making fun of me for being half. Then all of a suddenly all the girls realized I existed.

I guess I'm lucky I'm not part of a team. Not that it would stop me. Sorry you have to deal with that bullshit, too.

[shutter_hime]

People are wild.

OK, that's... like.

[Firstly: awful. Though Kokoro was really, really aware of the homogeny in her country, it was always surprising when it came up.]

I'm sorry to hear people were cruel to you over that. And then those fly by nights started following you around. At least here it isn't the same?

[getcloser]

It's fine. It wasn't like I was the only one. I was just the biggest.

[it's rough being over six foot when you've barely entered high school]

No one really cares here, no.

[shutter_hime]

I wonder if it's just because we're really tall?


Also, so far 2 people have tried.

[getcloser]

It must be. We're cursed.


Two already? Morons.

[shutter_hime]

At least it's "we will always be able to reach the top of the shelf" cursed and not the other way around.

It is both kind of amazing and distressing.

[getcloser]

That's fair. I guess I can accept hitting my head on doorframes every so often if it means reaching the top shelf.

You should have told them to try it with wasabi.

[shutter_hime]

To concussions and shelf-reaching.

Also, I am not that mean. But there is an experiment someone did with garlic cloves and sinuses...

[getcloser]

And you haven't offered it as another scientific theory?

You have your sample size. May as well take advantage.

[shutter_hime]

Garlic cloves are a liiiittle harder to find easily, since some people don't cook with them. Besides, I have to go run soon, so I wouldn't be able to watch for people agreeing.

Perhaps another morning's entertainment.

Speaking of my run, though, are you going to be out there again today? I'll wave.

[getcloser]

Hah. That at least gives you time to find where they sell them.

I'll be out there. I might even wave back.

[shutter_hime]

What~? You might wave back~?

Star Platinum, give Jotaro back his laptop.

[getcloser]

Star doesn't know how to type on these yet.

[shutter_hime]

[The response comes about an hour and fifteen minutes later.]

"Yet"

Does that mean he's going to learn?

Also, someone tried it with multiple things and I choked on my tea and had to clean it up.

[getcloser]

He could, probably.

Without me doing it for him, I mean.

Multiple things? Like what?

[shutter_hime]

That sounds really handy, actually. Him doing things for you. But you don't seem like the type that relies on that sort of thing, huh?

And I don't know yet, either he's dead or it's a long list.

[getcloser]

I guess. When I first got him, he used to bring things to me. I think he was trying to prove he wasn't an evil spirit. But I'm still. Getting used to him, too. He's more independent here.

That's a shame. Died in the name of science.

[shutter_hime]

Namu amida butsu.

Also, thanks for the water. I don't sweat, but I do need to stay hydrated. Why didn't you wave? wwww

[getcloser]

Does Amitābha Buddha act when it comes to idiots?

I don't know what you're talking about.

[shutter_hime]

Sure, sure~

And I have to believe the Buddha does, otherwise there are a whole bunch of classmates of mine that are going to have trouble later.

[getcloser]

I'll take your word for it.

I only know about that stuff because of my dad. Mom's mostly Christian.

[shutter_hime]

Really? You didn't go to festivals or anything?

I've never actually met a Christian. There were apparently a couple at school, but I never ran into them.

[getcloser]

A few when I was younger. Mom really wanted to embrace Japan, so she'd take me.

I don't think she practices, neither does that side of my family. But America and England don't really practice Buddhism - not the kind you find in Japan.
