Fifth Miracle

[beamiracle]

[It's the weekend, and there's no school. And since Lion's a teacher and he's already finished marking assignments, there really isn't anything to do. More specifically, there isn't anything around the house to read. So what does that mean? A trip to the library!

A. If anyone's in the library today, chances are they'll see Lion perusing the shelves. And it looks like Lion's already caught on to the fact that since Mayfield classifies him as a man, the only books available to Lion will be books about car repair. Lion's starting to look a little frustrated by this.]

Is there really nothing else here at all...?

[B. Eventually Lion gives in and figures that books on car repair are better than nothing, so he's taken some out...perhaps a bit more than Lion can carry. You may see Lion on the way home, carrying a somewhat precariously stacked amount of books. Lion's trying to be careful by walking very slowly, but still...]

Yes. My grandfather built up most of our wealth after the second World War. We've been pretty well-off since then.

That's cool.

My foster father owned a car garage.

[[Not nearly so important but Aaron was proud of that.]]

[Lion can tell from the way he mentions it.]

I see. I imagine that he enjoys running it, then?

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

He did. He liked the work and the people.

He also liked cars. I have to admit it was fun.

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

Then I'm sure he must have been happy to be working at a job that he loved.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

He was.

I'm kind of disappointed you have to be an adult to work at the car shop here. Not much we can do about it though I suppose.

So, did you work at all back home or did you not have to?

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

No, I only went to school. And I was student council president and captain of the badminton team in high school, so that and my studies took up most of my time.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Oh. Yeah, I didn't join much at school.

[beamiracle.livejournal.com]

Well, I suppose that's not for everyone.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I had enough with work and other hobbies back home.
