[Hello, Far Shore!

Here's your resident redhaired librarian who greets everyone with a slight smile and a wave.]


Hey, everyone. I've noticed there's been quite a few people here who are either illiterate or mute [Selectively mute, anyway] so I've decided to find a way where it might be easier to communicate.

I'll be teaching sign language for anyone who's interested and I'm also offering to help anyone who would like to learn how to read. So far, these will be initially taught at the library or I can even do private tutoring sessions for anyone as well. If you also know people who are interested, spread the word.

And for those who doesn't know me yet, the name's Lavi.

You don't have to dislike it for it to be a favour. [As far as Shun's concerned, asking someone else to do something still counts as a favour.] But if it's that big of a deal to you, I suppose you could try it.

[It seems a little odd to him that Lavi looks so pleased with it, but Shun's not going to push too hard when they came here for a reason. So he leans against one of the desks in the little library instead of actually sitting down at it, facing Lavi.]

Go ahead.

[As Shun said, he's...not the best at picking up a new language. But the fact that this one is physical helps, and after a while, he focuses more on memorising and repeating the symbols themselves than assigning the meaning to them. He can do that later on.

So while he can imitate the symbols themselves flawlessly and sign back anything Lavi signs at him, he's not doing the best at actually constructing any sentences or reading what's actually being said.]

It's only been one day anyway.

[But that's going to be a bit of a problem, and Shun tries running back through what Lavi demonstrated to try and pick out some things he might be able to piece together that had the meanings explained.

After a few moments and obviously still preoccupied with trying to remember if he's saying the right thing, he manages to piece together an extremely broken-up "how are you". The signs are perfectly fine once he decides they're the right ones to use, at least.]

[Shun still looks a little out of step with the whole thing, but he nods a little as he lowers his hands.] I haven't done this sort of thing for a while.

[It's...a strange feeling, and he's not sure he likes it, but he supposes he can't get away with not formally learning things after not having been schooled for a good few years now.]

I don't know. [Honest answer, though Shun does have some trouble telling the difference these days.

That follow-up question makes his fists clench subtly on the table, though.]
Does it matter?
revolutionfalcon: (last chance)

[Shun unclenches a bit at that, though he still doesn't look particularly settled with it. It's not something he often admits, but if Lavi is going to be "curious", he might as well nip it in the bud now.]

I don't remember that much. Just...things with people I'm still focused on, mostly. So I don't have a proper answer anyway.
