It's nice. A nice name. I expect you are proud of your family name, it is a strong traditional one."</strong></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/>"Uh, hai, it is.  We go a long way back, or so Father tells me," He replies still unsure why she was doing this.  Part of him wants to run screaming away, the other...  Well, it's still not sure what to do.  This is highly confusing.  No girl is curious about him, the creepy guy.  OK, one was, but she vanished, so she doesn't really count.<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=23650.msg974967#msg974967">Quote from: Haibane on 03-12-2008, 22:50:08</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote"><strong>"I did not ask if you had got used to it yet, I asked how you were finding it.

I want to know. I want to know about Asano-san. Will Asano-san tell me?"</strong></blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div><br/><em>What.  The.  Hell???  What is this?</em>He stands there, confused, totally off guard.  He's never had a girl do this with him.<em>What is she...?  Does she like me?</em>He pauses mentally,<em>No, she doesn't.  She just met you, she's just curious, is all.  Answer her questions and maybe she'll go away.  Besides, this only happens in Shoujo manga any way.</em>This took all of three seconds to run through his head and the next is to pick out the best answer he can, "There's a lot of girls."<br/><br/><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><em>WHAT.  THE.  FUCK.  WAS THAT???</em></span>That wasn't the answer he wanted!<em>Oh God, now she'll think I'm either stupid or a creep.</em>He actually blushes, and desperately tries to backtrack,<em>it sounded wrong, especially on the way out</em>, "I mean, I've never been to a school with all gir...ls..."<br/><br/><em>Oh perfect, where's the gravedigger where you need one???  Not that I need help, I'm doing a good job on my own.</em>He audibly groans, "Look, this is new to me, I've spent most of my time either in all boys schools or at home.  This is very new to me."<br/><br/>He stops before making a faux pas, a True Nihonjin will never say anything negative outloud.  It's impolite and dishonourable.  His feet shuffle in the snow laden tram stop as he looks at Rikako.
