Wow... You don't know what six time eight is?

Sucks to be you.

[black_lily]

Just because I don't know a worthless piece of information doesn't mean that it "sucks to be me"! I certainly don't think so!

[lastplaceigo]

It's not worthless; it could be on the test, you never know.

Yeah, but I think it does.

[black_lily]

That's... then the test would be equally worthless!

I don't care what you think, I was perfectly happy before I was sent here.

[lastplaceigo]

Fail the test and your grade tanks. It's a vicious circle.

...The answer is 48, though, but any calculator can tell you that.

[black_lily]

Then-[slight pause] obviously, grades are useless as well! [What isn't useless to her?]

... how do you get 48 from 6 and 8? N-not that it should matter...

[lastplaceigo]

Then you're not getting into college and are probably going to have repeat all of high school. Good luck with that.

[But she will take pity.]

You can just memorize it or do it the long way, but it's easy to remember. Just add 8 to 8 six times and you'll get the answer. Same as you would if it were 6x9 or 6x10.

[black_lily]

Why should I care about college or high school? I never needed any of this before I was brought here. I never asked for a so called 'normal' lifestyle.

[... while Ayaka has had... little education beyond Japanese, English, very basic math, and a whole load of martial arts training, that didn't mean she was stupid. She could put two and two together when given enough information.]

I... I see. So multiplication is more or less an extension of addition.

[Sadly, Ayaka was never taught how to thank people for their help. To her, it was bad enough having to get help with it to begin with.]

[lastplaceigo]

Alright, then. Don't study. But if you ever need a tutor...

[It's okay. Margot is used to calling people out on that.]

And you're welcome.

btw that PB and some keywords looks familiar. Ever played at Mayfield? o.o

[black_lily]

Hmph, I don't need a tutor. This multiplication isn't hard. [Yeah, now that the basics have been explained to her. But she may take her up on tutoring when she reaches algebra, once she swallows her pride]

ahhh yes i did! i still play there with her actually, just a different version.

[lastplaceigo]

Uh-huh. Well, let me know when they start covering division. You're gonna have a lot of fun with that.

I don't think we ever tagged though. XD; I just remember seeing you there.

[black_lily]

Division...?

[Okay, she might need a bit of help with that, too]

XD ahah. still, that's awesome to meet another former Mayfielder, though!

[lastplaceigo]

It's like multiplication, but backwards and more awful.

Yeah ^^; Well, if you ever saw them, I used to play Reisen, Youhei Sunohara, Nanashi(oc), Shina(oc).

[black_lily]

[[ooc: I also played the first Kotomi that was there. I saw somebody else picked her up later]]

More... awful? How?

(Her face is going to be stuck like this for awhile, it seems)

of those i remember Reisen! <3

[lastplaceigo]

[And Margot is going to try her damnedest not to laugh. Don't thank her? It's cool, she'll just think of something worse for you to worry about.]

Oh. You'll see when you get there~

I played her the longest out of all of them ^^ I'm toying with the idea of her as a teacher but idk

[black_lily]

[It's a good thing Margot isn't laughing, because Ayaka doesn't take it well when people are amused at her expense]

You can't just leave it at that! Tell me!

you can always bring her into the test drive and see how it feels? (:

[lastplaceigo]

Oh no, no... I wouldn't want to confuse you or anything.

True enough, but that'd require picking 15 icons out of my 80+ making a new journal >.<;

[black_lily]

I'm not going to be confused!

yeah, picking icons is always the hard part. D:

[lastplaceigo]

Are you sure? I mean, you couldn't even do the multiplication...

I'll think about it for next app cycle. Don't want to overload myself @_@

[black_lily]

I was never taught multiplication before, but now obviously I can do it!

[Okay, there would be more complicated problems with multiplication, but she didn't know that.]

true that!

[lastplaceigo]

What's 212x10?

[black_lily]

What...?

...

[Give her a moment to think about it. She's trying to add it up in her head. If only she knew she could just add a 0 at the end of 212...]

[lastplaceigo]

[Margot will tell her that little trick later, of course, but right now she's going to bask in this.]

I'm waiting!~

[black_lily]

B-be quiet!

[She's not giving up! She's getting there... she thinks...]

[lastplaceigo]

[She gives her two seconds of silence before humming the Jeopardy theme with a huge grin plastered on her face.]
