[ There has been a great deal of things that Sasuke has learned about in the few weeks he's been here just from talking to new people. All of them have been extremely confusing concepts, like therapy and the idea that people take care of children when they don't have anyone else to take care of them.

Some of these conversations where he's learned things have ended in more questions than answers. He could ask for more clarification from the few he's already made contact with, but the more possible answers he can get, the better. He thinks.

He hopes.

This could be a mistake. ]

How would you suggest someone improve their communication skills?

If your go to response is "talk to people", spare me. I'm only interested in more thorough answers.

I'm not as nice in person. You might find me terrifying.

Are you sure you're up to it?

[Intermediate level conversational skills: CAN HE PICK UP ON HUMOR.]

[retsuden]

[ Sarcasm is probably the only conversational skill he's almost a natural at. ]

I'm always up for a challenge.

[laniidae]

Good, then. Whenever you like, I can't imagine I'll be busy. I'm not even sure what I'm supposed to be doing here to begin with, so my time is wide open.

[retsuden]

There are jobs you can get, though it seems to be mostly to fill your time without any currency. I volunteer at the orphanage most afternoons, but...

Are you a morning person?

[laniidae]

Well enough, I suppose. I enjoy breakfast as much as the next person.

Why?

[retsuden]

I usually train down by the shore in the mornings. If you wanted to join me.

[laniidae]

...You know what, why not. I'll find my way down.

[retsuden]

Great. I'm usually the only one out there that early, so I should be easy to spot.
