Yay, Stargazing ftw

*She wasn't sure how long she had waited for Al. An hour? Maybe more? She'd even grabbed a new dress out of necessity (pale blue sleeveless dress, with a set of matching sandals), and had tried to style her hair a small bit...but the styling failed in front of the mirror and she ended up brushing it neatly and leaving it at that, simply curling the ends of her hair slightly in her haste and frustration. 

She wondered if he thought it a burden. She wondered if...*

Well... a-a lot of it is star charts, especially in the early years.....

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

Ohhhhhh, you don't...

You don't research the mathematical portion...Not many schools do. That's usually University level material.

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

We-we do some-some maths.....

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

Like what kind?

*Fonsy + Math = conversation for a million years*

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

Well, in fourth and fifth years we started using a bit of trigenometry....

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

Trigonometry is fascinating, though I love Calculus, myself.

I hear Trigonometry isn't even a required course in American Colleges...I'd wanted to go to an American University for a time--MIT was my ideal--so I'd studied the school system...

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

MIT?

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It's one of the most prestigious schools of Technology in my world.

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

Oh.

*leans against her, a bit*

*Alfons blushes, leaning against him as well*

One day, no matter what world I'm in, I hope to go to a good University. Or at least study as much as I can.

...

Do Wizards have colleges and Universities, too? In your world?

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

S-sort of. There are programs related to the carreers we wish to enter, but there aren't any large institutions, perse.

...Nii-san can't afford to go on, right now, though. So he's volunteering as an intern and... trying to build up funds. I-I won't go on until he's gotten himself through, or we have enough money for both of us, though. He'll probably try to make me go through before him... but i won't let him. He-he deserves it just as much... if not more than I do....

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

Special programs, hm...

...But...

*Alfons tends to have her own views on this, but she's keeping quiet.*

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

Mmm?

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

No, it's fine. It's okay.

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

...tell me?

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

If...

If um...

If you get the opportunity to go to a higher program...don't you think your brother would be upset with you if you didn't take it?

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

.....


*sighs*


I...


It's not that easy.

He-he deserves it just as much... and-and he's....

He's the older brother, he-he should come first.

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

I don't really agree with him coming first, but maybe I have bias, because it's you...

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

.....

Trust me... you don't know him.

Well, I suppose you do, but you don't....

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

...The one I knew is probably a lot different from the one in your world.

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

have you met...

There's another Ed here who does magic like mine. He even likes potions like my nii-san. And went to hogwarts, like my nii-san did.

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

*She nods.*

I introduced you two, remember? Back...when we first came here.

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

*blushes* O-oh. Right.


Well... he's.... a-a lot like mine.....

[girlalfons.livejournal.com]

*Alfons nods, and looks thoughtful for a moment.*

If I...

..............

If I could, I'd...

[otouto-al.livejournal.com]

You'll be able to go, Alfons. I'm sure....
