Chapter 111 - 111. chit chat (2/2)

We were finished before anyone else was close. I could see Mike and his partner comparing two slides again and again, and another group had their book open under the table.

Which left me with nothing to do but try to not look at her. I glanced up, and ahe was staring at me, that same inexplicable look of frustration in her eyes as I felt my mental shield being rubbed over. Suddenly I identified that subtle difference in her face.

it was the butterscotch eye color. I did always enjoy butterscotch pudding when I could fight Luna off.

Mr. Banner came to our table then, to see why we weren't working. He looked over our shoulders to glance at the completed lab, and then stared more intently to check the answers.

”So, Amanda didn't you think Ryan should get a chance with the microscope?” Mr. Banner asked.

”Ryan” Amanda corrected automatically. ”Actually, identified three of the five.”

Mr. Banner looked at me now; his expression was skeptical.

”Have you done this lab before?” he asked.

I smiled sheepishly. ”Not with onion root.”

”Whitefish blastula?”

”Yeah.”

Mr. Banner nodded. ”Were you in an advanced placement program in Phoenix?”

”Yes.”

”Well,” he said after a moment, ”I guess it's good you two are lab partners.” He mumbled something else as he walked away. After he left, I began doodling on my notebook again.

It's too bad about the snow, isn't it?” Amanda asked.

”Not really,” I answered honestly, instead of pretending to be normal like everyone else.

”You don't like the cold.” It wasn't a question.

”No I'm fine with the cold but when it gets cold and wet and ruins my socks it's rather bothersome i don't like wet socks.”

she looked fascinated by what I said, this is the classic sharigan problem you start relying on your abilities too much and they control your life I have to remember that gilgamesh became shit because of the gate and relying on it too much his combat skills became shit I'll ask teacher to up my training. Her face was quite beautiful shame I had fleur and she couldn't enthrall me like in the story looking like a love sick idiot isn't good.

”Why did you come here, then it's one of the wettest coldest places in the world?”

No one had asked me that - not straight out like she did, demanding.

”ah well my mom wanted to travel around with her new husband who is into baseball one I hate baseball and two I prefer stability I don't like moving around” (that's why I bought the kingdom)

”That's pretty mature and logical reasoning” she said and slowly knit her eye brows thinking about things.
