Under normal circumstances, sharing an interest in common did not require much forethought or disgression. Rather, the majority of people would consider such attempts beneficial to all individuals involved and supportive of society as a coorperative whole. Such was not the case during Sumiko's homeroom, however, which just so happened to be the time these two students had chosen to exchange such information. When she entered the room, she placed her books onto the desk and her students, pushing her glasses up with two fingers as she stood at the head of the class.<br/><br/>She began her class as usual, addressing her students and taking role as always, her soft and calm demeanor working alongside her reassuring presence. Sumiko's performance, however, never did come across as completely focused. She often maintained an air of aloofness, one that doubtless her students picked up on as well. As she continued to speak, however, she stepped around her desk while carrying her textbook with her and walked down between the two students who where busily speaking to each other. At first she merely stood just behind them, her words reverberating through the air while the rest of the class sat in dull silence.
