[Voice / Morning]

Welcome to Luceti, New Feathers!! And good morning to all the... Old Feathers?

[All of those who aren't new basically.]

My name's Son Goku, pleased to meet ya! I take care of the okonomiyaki restaurant near the fountain, if you haven't ever had any you should come and give it a try, I promise it's really tasty and good! Ucchan's Okonomiyaki restaurant always has the best okonomiyaki in the village.

[Let's ignore the fact that it's the only place with okonomiyaki in the menu.]

Ah, I also wanted to ask if there are any home tutors or something available. [There's a bit of a long pause before he resumes.] Long time ago I asked for help because I wanted to keep learning and getting better at writing and reading and maths and other things, but... Most of the people who offered to help and helped me have been sent back to their worlds. I want to learn more, niisan says I'm getting better with my handwriting but I know it's still messy and there are still many words I don't know how to write well and many difficult words to read in books.

But I don't wanna go to the school. So no school, but I want help to learn more, pretty please! I can make delicious okonomiyaki for you in exchange!

[Making the deal sweeter with food, that should work, right?]

[Action / Evening]

[At early evening, Goku closes the restaurant, deciding that he has worked enough for the day. After that the kid will be seen around playing by himself despite the cold, making orange paper airplanes and throwing them around before chasing after them. At least until droids appear and attack the kid, knocking him out before he can do much more besides scream and dragging him away.]

... You have to study after school is over even if you already go to school to study?

[He didn't know that, that makes it ten times worse! No, a million times worse!

Goku hums a bit after that, he's actually not very interested in other worlds in a regular basis, sometimes in a conversation he may be but... He doesn't want to specifically learn or study about them.]

That's nice... But what's an "idol"?

[Voice]

[accepted]

I think so, you end up getting work to do at home. And then you have to memorize all the stuff you learnt.

[Try a billion times worse. It's bad enough you have to go in the first place, but then you're expected to remember what you've gone over?! Hah!]

An idol is someone that sings and dances around, it's their job. My world didn't have any but I've met some idols here.

Memorize it? Why? What if it's something I don't want to know, would I have to memorize it too?

[Tenpou never said anything about memorizing everything! He just talked about learning at most.]

Oh! You mean like me taking care of the restaurant, right? I didn't know you could have a job that you do by singing and dancing around. Sounds fun.

[Voice]

[accepted]

Yeah, you would! That's why school is boring and studying is so hard, you don't even want to know most of it but you still have to learn about it!

[Why isn't there a school just for exploring and fighting?! THEN he might actually go!]

Me neither, I guess if you like singing and dancing that it's pretty good. [Not that he likes dancing or anything right now, nope. It's lame. Very uncool.] So yeah, it's like you taking care of your restaurant or any other job.

I didn't think studying was hard when Ten-chan was teaching me, it was fun and he taught me only what I wanted to learn and when I wanted to. He said it was good to do it daily though even just a little so sometimes even if I didn't really want to we studied a bit, but only for a bit and then I could go and play.

[A school for exploring and fighting would be the most awesome thing ever, honestly and Goku would go there in a heartbeat.]

[Voice]

[accepted]

Daily? I only study a few times a week and I get by just fine like that. If I went to be tutored every single day then it would get boring really fast.

[Or at least he imagines it would. If he went everyday then it would just be more like school and therefore more boring.]
