Learning another language was tough, Aphrodi knew that. Having three under his belt, he did have the confidence that he could master another one. But Chinese wasn’t one that he would have sought to master of his own accord. It was…difficult for a language. He had to give Zhou Yu some credit for knowing the language.

As his new friend was learning English, Aphrodi tried to recall some of his old troubles when trying to pick up on the language. It wasn’t easy and some words and phrases were just easier to pick up on than others. But, he had experience, little tricks to learning languages, Zhou Yu was a beginner at learning another language.

It started off small, the progress the other was making. It started with just simple words and phrases, helping Aphrodi (as well as his roommates) have an idea of what he wanted or what he was trying to get at. The alphabet was a bigger challenge and making coherent sentences was an even more difficult task to accomplish.

“Afurodi…?” The blonde hears his name, sort of a mixture of his nickname and surname which he’s not bothered by. He quickly looks up from a beginner’s guide on how to learn Chinese (he had gotten one for Zhou Yu for English).

“Yes?” Aphrodi sets the book aside, giving the other his full attention since it takes a lot to try and understand Chinese, at least he assumes that’s the language he’s going to be speaking in.

“I would…like to go and eat with you?” Initially he meant that to be a statement, but it came out as a question due to being uncertain of getting this correct.

The blonde stares for a moment before nearly jumping out of his seat. This was progress, good progress. “Yes! Where would you like to eat?”

“Eh…” There’s a pause and he falters a bit now. “Restaurant. Sit down and eat meal…”

“Of course!” Aphrodi smiles to him. Oh, he’s so happy that they understand each other (he’s keeping to simple words and phrases that Zhou Yu might already be familiar with). “Let’s go then! Keep this up and I’ll be treating tonight!”

The lack of unique clothing the other was rather surprising to someone who couldn’t resist the latest fashion trends. Aphrodi simply couldn’t have the other around in such clothes- he could but why not go on a shopping trip for fun? It would be a nice excuse to get out of the house and have Zhou Yu in something that wouldn’t get him odd stares here. So, the blonde offers to buy him clothes, something more modern and fashionable.

His Chinese is broken and really he can only try to pronounce certain words (he has a feeling he’s probably speaking worse than a child at his level), hoping to at least get the key words, ‘buy’ and ‘clothes’ out. For a moment he wishes that Sun Ce was around, at least he could help with this, but these two would have to learn the other language at some point. Eventually, Aphrodi manages to get across what he wants to do. The other seems to protest for a moment, tripping over words as he just can’t seem to find the ones he needs in that foreign language, but the blonde simply smiles and takes his hand.

You really can’t say no to a god.

It’s a short trip to the mall and there are many, many stores the two can visit. Aphrodi looks over to the other male, arms crossed as he tries to imagine an outfit for him to wear. It would have to be amazing, eye catching, and of course, suit the other as well, compliment his natural style. An idea of where to go clicks in his mind and he’s making the hand gestures for Zhou Yu to follow.

They wind up at a store Aphrodi has gone to a few times since his move here, the styles offered here reminds him of home. He’s quick to head over to the men’s section, assuming his new friend was following after him. The man hums as he searches through the various clothing racks, occasionally picking out a set of clothes and holding them before the other. He would either shake his head to the mismatching styles, or consider them. When he finds, what he believes, are the ideal clothes (or close enough to it), the blonde lets out a gasp.

“Try these on!” He doesn’t even try to say that in his native language, rather he simply holds out the clothes and begins pushing him towards the changing rooms. Surely Zhou Yu would understand that he would have to try on these clothes. Aphrodi patiently waits outside, glancing over to the other clothes and considers buying something for himself. Not today, he tells himself, it’s all for Zhou Yu instead.

When his friend steps out of the changing room, a hand raises over Aphrodi’s mouth. “It looks amazing!” He shouts before trying to at least translate amazing or another similar term in Chinese for the other to understand. He laughs softly as he realizes that he’s a bit more excited in the change of clothing than Zhou Yu is. That doesn’t stop him from trying to search out more clothes in order to expand his wardrobe.

The girl got what she wanted, even if it costed the lives of several students, a girl got the man. If only she could have thought of a way to get him without violence. Cut to after all that and we have Oka Ruto, the former President of the Occult Club and a surviving student of Akademi High School. She had finished her day at a school she moved to after Akademi closed down (which she still hasn’t settled into fully) and decided to pay the old school a visit.

Oka had heard rumors about ghosts appearing in the school during the weekdays, and it got her curious to find out if it was true. Once she had gotten to the school, she sat down and opened up her book and went to a certain page. Here she began to speak some sort of words and after that, she had summoned a soul before her! He eyes widened to see the spirit before her. To her, this proved the the rumors were true! With that she began to talk to the soul that she had summoned before her.
