Summary: England grumbles, and vows to Shion.
Warnings: Potentially language. Will edit if anything else comes up.

[He sighs a little, eying the stack of graded papers he'll need to pass back tomorrow. Considering he hasn't really made a habit of getting out and fighting, he's had quite a bit of free time, so he has...nothing to do, really, now that his work is done. He has one assignment from today to grade, but that won't take long at all.

Though he likely will have Discard errands to run. What a pain in the arse.]

[Oh but she hated being this unsure about everything...and she hated having to admit that. What would Eri think...]

Um...reading it, sir.

[keepscalm]

[Oh. Well, that would definitely cause a comprehension problem, yes.]

You have grown up with a first language other than English, then, I presume?

[has_soothing_bells]

Yes, sir. But...I cannot remember what that language is, either. My head always hurts when I try to remember it. But English is not my first language, no.

[keepscalm]

[Ah, the lost memories. Well, it didn't really matter what her first language was; he couldn't really teach the class in anything but English.]

I cannot make accommodations in class for other languages anyways, regrettably. However, if you desire auxiliary-- [Oh wait. Um. He should probably use shorter words.] --extra help or tutelage outside of class, I will gladly offer my assistance as my schedule allows.

[has_soothing_bells]

Y-yes, that would be rather helpful. I can speak it well enough, it is only my reading that suffers. Eri did not use English writing much in her hobbies.

[keepscalm]

Having a grasp on the language in speech will help you. Simply inform me as to when you have free time after this class, and provided I have no further obligations, we will meet for a tutoring session.

Would you feel comfortable designating a schedule for the frequency of your visits in the future? Selecting a day of the week and how often you think you need to come will greatly help prevent conflicts with other activities.

[England why do you talk so much.]

[has_soothing_bells]

So long as Miss Dahlia does not need me for battle, I believe any time after or before classes is acceptable. A schedule [This she pronounced as 'shed-u-al'] sounds lovely. What day is best for you, sir?

[keepscalm]

[He actually turns a bit of an amused half-smile at her pronunciation, which is probably a bit strange to see considering he usually seems pretty prickly during class.]

What do you think of Friday? [He's aware that after three days of no fighting, people get penalized, so doing it in the beginning of the week may not be a good idea, since people would likely be trying to get battles in so that they don't have to worry about the middle of the week.] I am not opposed to either morning or afternoon sessions. At what time of day do you feel you do your best work?

[Some people were morning people, some people liked afternoons or nighttime. It would be best to have ideal working conditions if he was going to help teach someone how to read.]
