Seven Voices

Ritsu immediately turned his back on the student, stalked back up the the front of his classroom, and slammed the lighter down on the front desk as a warning to the rest of the class.

He had mopped all the floors and clapped all the erasers and sat alone for three hours just yesterday for speaking out of turn in his math class. He can only imagine what he’ll be made to do now, just a day after his last punishment.

When only Ritsu and Kausakabe were left in the room he spoke to the boy. “You can’t get kicked out of this school, you know. No one leaves until I have properly trained them. Not alive at least. I personally will ensure that your behavior is reformed.”

“Hello!”

“Hello….. Sensei.”

“How are your specimens coming along?”

“As if you care.” 

“Oh. do you need help… finding something?”

“Maybe a cork... to put in your mouth.”

“Hello!”

“Hello..... Sensei.”

“I wasn’t even smoking. My lighter just fell out of my pocket.” He sighed, folding his arms across the desk and laying his head down. “As if I’d smoke in a classroom. I don’t want to get people sick.” But his teacher had mistaken his picking up of the dropped item as intent to use it, and now he was down a lighter and he knows he doesn’t have any matches in his room anymore. And she’d taken his cigarettes! It had been an almost full pack! “She’s lying.”

Ritsu immediately turned his back on the student, stalked back up the the front of his classroom, and slammed the lighter down on the front desk as a warning to the rest of the class.

treat her better

[Text:] Not unless I am ordered to.

Since Soubi had fallen into Ritsuka’s care, they came once, that day Ritsu saw Soubi one last time before Seimei gouged his eyes out, permanently blinding him. How grateful he was for that one last look.

Which was true. Not that Soubi had never made a decision on his own when no orders had precedent, but he had school and Ritsuka to occupy his time. When he disappeared for too long Ritsuka seemed to get worry, even if he often seemed to not actually want Soubi in his presence. Or, maybe he just didn’t like what Soubi said.

[Text:] What about an order from Sensei?

“Why bring this subject up constantly if it bothers you so?” 

“She was my only family left, and plus it would have been stupid if I didn’t at least attempt to honour her life.”

“Dwelling on the past is not a productive way to live.” 

“I enjoy the springtime when all of the new students arrive.”

✂ ◇   ◇   ◇ “ Eh? I always got the impression you didn’t like kids. Or maybe you just didn’t like Youji-kun n’ me.”

“I do enjoy the prospect of fresh minds to discipline. You and your Sacrifice are beyond my reach in that area.” 

✂ ◇   ◇   ◇  ” My name means ‘summer life’ but I’ve never liked the summer. I’ve always liked Autumn…a season of change. What about you?” 

“I enjoy the springtime when all of the new students arrive.”
