[Voice] Shifting Incompability

[unseenspy]

It would seem that I'll be joining the draft after all.

[Normally he'd be feeling confident about it, but the shifting incompatibility unsettles him.]

Perhaps some of you may know what sort of possible effects we'd suffer as a result of this shifting incompatibility. Has this ever happened before?

Well, no, but...

[It's not like anything else they do does them any good either. So why bother?]

Then, you can find a way to make life in Luceti more bearable. How about a hobby? I took up gardening and pottery, myself, with a bit of reading on the side.

It's just...not the same.

[Without the Oresoren, without his other companions to have picnics with, and without Moses to pick on...]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Of course not. Nothing stays the same forever. Times change and a person must change accordingly, lest they'll be too focused on the past to enjoy the present. You will return to your home when the time comes, but in the meanwhile, there are other things that deserve your attention.

[Of course Jay knows this to be true. He thinks of how he's changed since meeting Senel's group, and how he was finally able to put the past behind him. Regardless, the present isn't exactly pleasant...]

Other things...?

[Like what?]

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Anything. Everything. Your friends, things you like to do... Aiding other residents from time to time... And have you considered attending school?

[He just...sighs.]

They're...not here...

[His friends, his family were all back home. And Grune is nigh impossible to keep track of.]

I've no reason to attend school.

You aren't interested in learning more and making new friends?

[unseenspy.livejournal.com]

With a bunch of children? Please...

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

The majority of our students are teenagers like yourself.

[Sigh]

I still don't need to sit in a classroom. I'm very well educated already.

[fonon-professor.livejournal.com]

Oh, I don't doubt that. It was merely a suggestion for you to keep yourself busy.

[unseenspy.livejournal.com]

I suppose so.

[Perhaps he'll just study at the library for his educational thing.]
