@BaeBladeHero "My habits are that I go to bed every night at ten 'o clock. Another one is that I go on a morning running everyday and that's about it."

@GoldenxLeonidas "I've never really outright lied, I'm quite bad at it but I suppose I'm not always honest with Ana or Peri. They're the only friends i think I've "lied" to."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"To the barber , I have to look presentable to hang out with my crush," skipping around.

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"I have not. I get so busy, i add books to the list but then never end up reading them. Maybe if i listened to audio books I could multitask."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"Plenty of people have that problem. Have you condidered getting audiobooks for longer stories that you're interested in but think you'll struggle to get through?"

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"Finally, they're ready ! My tomatoes are looking good."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"If it makes you feel better, sometimes I hate my mother tongue as well. I can give you that, English literature isn't bad, I just have a hard time reading for long periods of time."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"Honestly, if English wasn't my mother tongue, I'd probably hate it too. The literature is pretty good though."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"Oh, I see. Guess that makes sense but it sure can be confusing. I guess that's the thing with human language. It's probably why English has always been my least favorite class."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"That's because the standardisation of modern English varied between countries. In the USA, a guy called Noah Webster advocated to simplify the spelling in a way that aligns more phonetically with the spoken language and use it to establish a distinct American cultural ---

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"Fascinating. It's interesting because growing up I learned how to spell things the British way. That's what they taught us in school at least. It never crossed my mind there were different ways to spell words when it's all English."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"It's because Japan is geared towards teaching English as a second language. And basically, due to post world war two politics and cultural exchange, American English spelling, vocabulary and pronunciation is what has been standardised. So if I spell colour with a 'u' the ---

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"Eh, they actually mark off points if you spell it differently ? Well, that doesn't seem fair."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"My maths ones are pretty solid. Also can you proofread my English essay to make sure I haven't defaulted to British spelling or I'll loose marks. It always fucking happens."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"That'd be great. I'm only confident in my math notes."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"Sure, if you want we can swap notes to make sure we have everything covered."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"Makes sense. Let me know if you ever want to study together though. I've cut back on a lot just to have time to study."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"Not really. I put that on hold, I needed to make time for revision before the exams and I can't afford to cut my hours at work and something had to give."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"Thank you, I greatly appreciate it. Aside from the library , have you been up to anything new ? Any diy projects ?"

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"I'll keep an eye out and let you know if there's anything that's up your alley while I'm there."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"So nothing specific ? That's fair. Hopefully it's something good this time. Now that its on my mind, I might see if they have anything I might be interested in."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"I was just referring to the books that were delivered, I wanted to peruse the new items and see if there's anything good."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"What collection are you trying to get ahold of ?," Shang doesn't read very much but always happy to hear what Peri is interested in at the moment.

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"I'm in a pretty good mood. The library had a new delivery of books last week and I'm thinking of meandering over to see if the new collection has hit the shelves yet."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"All I've learned from this is to be more careful with my words," he's feeling pretty good about the fight at least. Not so much about his earlier statement, he'll never let himself live it down.

"Anyways, besides being horrified for a split second today, how have you been ?"

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"To be fair, I can't confirm or deny that."

She shrugged, teasing him had been fun while it lasted, but it wouldn't be fair to push it too far.

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"I, uh, well-," he pauses to think for a moment. "It just doesn't seem logical to me."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

She snickered at his expense, was she being an ass? Absolutely. But she couldn't quite help herself.

"How would you know if you haven't tried?"

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"That explains it. I don't know any American actors," he didn't grow up watching movies.

His ears go red again, "That's not the same at all. There's no formula for something like that."

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"She was an American Film star and pin up model. Her popularity peaked in the 40s and 50s but she was still acting right up until the mid 80s."

She explained.

"I mean, you're a fast learner in school. Transferable skills and all that." Now she's definitely just teasing him.

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

nervous."

[ShangWu @PLASMASTXR]

"One, who's Launa Turner ?," he hopes this question doesn't upset her too much.

"Secondly, while i agree that probably is true. I was told such desires are a distraction. Besides, I've never even held a girl's hand and i can barely talk to the one i lov- like without getting+

[Peridot Sorano @EvxrgreenAias]

"Well if you ask Lana Turner, a gentleman is simply a patient wolf."

While she knows he wouldn't do anything despicable, it doesn't mean that he lacked desire. As unthinkable as the idea was to her.
