[It's been a busy few weeks for him--and considering that he's signed himself up for class recently, it's no surprise that he hasn't come out of his room every time he came back. Not that there was a lot of homework for him to be done, but he did have a habit of clearing out what needed doing when it was given to him instead of putting it off, like a certain partner of his would if he heard there was school here.

A year in Inaba did him a lot of good, that's for sure--it gave him practice on how to handle his time well enough to fit his friends in, and make room for himself. It also gave him ideas for what to do with his time here.

So when he gets up this morning, he sets up a filtered message for the lowerclassmen, because they'll surely be needing what he's putting up on offer in spite of the cold weather.]

If anyone needs help with a subject, I can come tutor you when I'm done at Seventh Heaven. Just let me know where you are.

[With that done, he goes off to deal with his business. Whoever's interested in bugging him can find him at the school during break time, decked out in, on top of his usual uniform, a purple scarf and jacket that...just screams 'weird taste' to whoever gets a good look. If that isn't suitable for them, they could also find him at Seventh Heaven still wearing said getup, or on his way home, trying to get back before the weather gets too bad.

Or they could just come bother him on the post he makes on the Journal network when he's back in his community building, that works too.]

I'd like to extend a welcome to the New Feathers that came in recently. My name is Seta Souji, and I'm willing to answer any questions you might have.

I also have a question for everyone--what do you do when it's too cold to head outside?

Maybe eat tangerines, too.

[Kotatsu season is the best season.]

[Only when the kotatsu isn't broken.]

That works, I guess...

Anything else, though? That can't be all that you do in this weather.

If you insist.

It's a good time for reading.

It is. [...] Any particular book you can suggest?

Well...

[...] Lately I've been reading Featherman novels.

[...Excuse him, silently fanboying and keeping that behind as neutral a tone as he can manage. Admittedly, part of him was still a closet fanboy of the franchise. The rest? Eh, quite indifferent about it.

...Quit it, Izanagi. Stop getting him to try and admit it.]

...You found some at the stores?

[There's no shame in having 'nerdy' interests. Of course, Minato pulls that off mostly by being completely nonchalant about it.]

At the library. They have some of the manga, too.

[Care to give him lessons on hiding his hobbies from his friends, Minato? He's bound to get caught in the act at some point. :|]

Huh. And how long have those been there?

[...Like how he has his sudden overactive curiosity at the prospect of the Featherman manga. He still doesn't like the Malnosso, but at least he can say they have taste...]

[Just use your poker face if they try to call you out. He knows you can be pretty good at that, too.]

Not sure. I noticed a month or two ago.

[Fair enough. Linefacing is their specialty, and all... :|]

I see. [...] Which chapters were there? ...Last time you checked, I mean.

[> It's obvious he hasn't been able to catch up on his readings for that particular series...]

[> You list off the titles you remember...]

They seemed to be current to your year. [It was funny reading books from the 'future...' But, it'd be 2013 if he'd spent all the time here at home, anyway, so maybe not.]

[> ...You get the feeling that your successor wildcard may be bonding with you over some of the sillier things in life.

...Though considering what he just mentioned, he can't help but wonder.

...Nah, it couldn't be, could it? He couldn't possibly be someone from the past or anything, right?

...Right? orz]

Were they any good?

I liked volume six. [...] The plotline in volume 5 lasted a little too long...
