in my head there's a greyhound station
Who: Yoshio Koutarou (Jirou Sakuma) and Michi Yamashita (Yuuto Kidou)
When: Monday, May 22
Where: Green Valley library
What: Studying was the idea.
There's a small figure with silvery hair slumped halfway down in his chair, textbook propped up on the table in front of him so he doesn't have to sit back up. It's a free period before school ends -- when the bell rings he's got swim practice, but until now he's just trying to get some homework out of the way.
Except it's really difficult, because Yoshio keeps finding himself fighting nodding off. Sleepiness is winning right now -- it's with much effort that he forces himself back into a proper posture. He rubs hard at his visible eye, squeezing both shut, then lays his book back down normally. He hasn't been sleeping well at all, no thanks to Applenet. Even when it isn't doing something weird, giving him headaches, waking him up, it's on his mind enough that he lays awake for hours. It's cutting into his daytime productivity.
He picks his pencil back up again, clicks the button on the side to extend the graphite cartridge another quarter centimetre, and stares down at his notebook. His face and the page are equally blank.

"Did you know penguins sit on their heels with their toes off the ground to keep from losing heat?" As soon as he says it he makes a face. Why are all his facts biology-based? He'll find something besides that, with any luck.

"I even know they can adjust blood flow in their feet so they stay warm longer. Did you?" Know that, he means.

That's not really going to count as an interesting fact. He has to come up with another fact. Michi is not going to lose his title of penguin fact king, never mind that he just assigned himself this title just now. That doesn't matter. What matters is defending it. "Did you know penguins don't have hollow bones like other birds do?"
