Guizhong Xiangu stared at her reflection in the water. It rippled gently, distorting the image staring back up at her. After a few moments passed, she raised her head and looked over towards her companion.

"You know, I've never actually liked the ocean. Seeing it always makes me wonder - what would it be like to drown?" She shook her head slightly, as if shaking away the thought. "Sorry. That's a strange thing to say, isn't it?"

It was with a grin that Guizhong darted towards the Yaksha, a bright grin on her face. Her hands were hidden behind her back, and she gave off the vague aura of someone who was up to something.

"Alatus!" She exclaimed, halting before him. "I have something for you."

"As an educator, I don’t just want you to feel what I feel. I don’t want you to consider me correct because I said it beautifully. I want to sharpen your critical thinking skills and your world-making capacities. I absolutely do not leave emotion out of that! Emotions are as central as the written, verbal, numeric, social, ecological knowledges we are able to gain to navigate this world and the next. I am just… extra cognizant of how much I can lead viewers to feel with me without further thought. The videos of mine that go most viral are ones where I show the most emotion, whatever that emotion is: hopeful, cheery, despondent, grieved, furious, combative. We love emotion. We live such isolated, stifled lives.

The challenge of reading is to navigate the narrative without the overtures of overt feelings. There is no face to latch onto, no music that sways you. Words on a page especially cannot compete with screen-time. They’re not meant to. The boredom opens up space in your mindscape to your own thoughts, opinions, and feelings."

Y/N: *returns from the bathroom to the line*

Y/N: *walks up to Gojo and grabs his hand*

Y/N: This is crazy.

Gojo: *looks at Y/N*

Gojo: Um... 

Y/N: *looks at Gojo*

Y/N: You're not my boyfriend.

Geto, from behind Y/N and Gojo: You're holding the wrong hand, Y/N.

Y/N: You sure?

Gojo: Yeah, we're sure.

Y/N: I feel compelled to finish this coffee experience with you.

Gojo: I'm not paying.

Y/N: Never mind, I'm going back to my boyfriend.

Geto: I'm not paying either.

Shoko, at the front of the line: Come hold my hand. I'll buy you anything you want.

Y/N: *goes to hold Shoko’s hand*

Y/N: At least somebody cares about me.
