[Makoto looks a little uneasy sitting in front of the computer, almost as if she’s afraid of touching it, thank whichever of the Seven Lucky Gods are listening that there is a camera…it means less touching until she’s comfortable]

They said it would make studying easier, but I think this is a little extreme [pokes the screen dubiously] and I’ve never been that great with things like this, my best subject is home economics and I’m not too bad at martial arts either…

…that reminds me, today was my first day at Juuban Junior High and I ran into a couple of cream puffs picking on a girl from my school. I can’t stand the kind of gutless coward who would pick on a girl, especially one that can’t fight back. Took care of them though, heh…

[Looks thoughtfully down at the keyboard]

…Though I guess that’s where my reputation for fighting comes from, it’s a misunderstanding I think, but most of the students in my new school avoided me…except for that strange little dumpling head who was attacked earlier…she was actually pretty friendly…and she had a huge appetite too. I think I liked that best of all, if she likes to eat then I can invite her over and cook for her…it does get a little bit lonely here…

[She suddenly realizes that she’s talking to a computer, inanimate objects don’t usually talk back, but there’s no one else around so why not. She’ll still scratch the back of her head and laugh nervously now]

Ha…hahaha…well you’re not going to talk back are you so I guess it’s time to get down to brass tacks as they say! It’ll be a pain if I get left too far behind, but as long as it’s not last place…so…does this thing have pong on it?

[Yeah…forget about studies]

[Have a robot panther waving at you~]

Hai! At least you're fighting for a good reason.

[Holy cow is that thing waving at her? Waves back...slowly.]

Erm...yeah...I guess that's true...but...

[video]

[im-wavin.livejournal.com]

But you not want the reputation?

[potatochips]

I'm afraid it's going to start talking back to you now.

[Wow, he's pretty cute...no...wait...focus focus focus...this is kind of a problem]

I guess so...but why is it talking back, did I press something...? I don't thinks so...I just turned it on...

[potatochips]

[ Offering a smile ]

No, you didn't press anything. This might sound a little strange but it's a magic internet community that finds people.

You shouldn't worry about a reputation like that if you got it for standing up for people. I think if they're afraid of you, those bullies will stand down before you even have to hit them.

[And he's cute too...is this her lucky day or something? But that's really not the point here...the computer must be busted...]

Well...I'm a little bit new to the area so the bullies I fought before I'm sure they didn't know me at least I don't ever remember fighting them before so I picked one up and threw him...well he did throw the first punch...

...Ah, but the kids at school, I think they're afraid of the reputation...and the fact that I'm taller than some of the boys...and my hair, the teachers wouldn't stop lecturing me about it. Um...but that's really nice of you!

[doyoufondue]

He threw a punch at a girl? He deserved getting thrown.

What's wrong with your hair? Why would they lecture you about that? It looks nice. ...I wouldn't worry about people being afraid of you. It'd be easier to find great friends that way. I bet that girl you saved would stick with you. It sounds sort of like how I met my friend.

...Well I'd be the girl and he'd be you in those roles but same point.

Actually it will since this is a community. I don't think you should worry about your reputation. Just try to be nice and I'm sure people will warm up to you eventually.

[And he's cute too! Just...in a different way...but he's a fox...and he's talking to her...computers today sure can make things look incredibly real.]

A community? [she knows nothing, nothing] I'm not really good with computers see...? But...well I do try to be nice it's just, there are a lot of things that people find intimidating about me...except for the buns girl, Usagi. I liked her.

Re: [Video]

[twotailmechanic.livejournal.com]

An online community, yes. It's kinda like talking to a lot of people over the phone. Well, if you continue to do so, people should warm up eventually like the girl you just mentioned.

[denies]

I'm afraid it'll actually start talking back to you by now, matter whether you like it or not.

And you're saying people are avoiding you at school? [ oh, this seems a little familiar.. ] You shouldn't pay much attention to them then. They're probably not worth it.

[ video ]

[supremefaith.livejournal.com]

I can kind of see that...I just wish I knew what button I hit...it wouldn't be so good if I broke this thing on the first day,

Only problem is that, it does get pretty lonely eating lunch by yourself [so she'll be glad to see Usagi again tomorrow, hopefully she'll still sit with her]

[ video ]

[denies]

Just try out a few buttons slowly. Press them one at a time and see what happens then. It can't be that hard, right?

... You get used to it after a while. [ her tone is a little resigned. ]

[makewayforroze.livejournal.com]

It isn't just a computer. You're talking to other people.

[supremefaith.livejournal.com]

Really? But...how?

[pink-sugargirl.livejournal.com]

Makoto!!!!!

[supremefaith.livejournal.com]

You know my name? [oh man this is awkward, should she know this little girl's name] Um...hey there.

[video]

[croibhristeoir]

I think even if one dislikes fighting, it's good to stand up for others when they need it.

[The other guys you talked to were cute, Makoto.]

[This guy is unearthly levels of pretty.]

Then again, perhaps I am not one to offer any opinions against fighting in general.

[video]

[supremefaith.livejournal.com]

Huh...?

[And he's so pretty that she can't even remember what they were supposed to be talking about...she can't even compare him to the sempai who spurned her...she just slides out of her seat and lands with a thump...how embarrassing...

...It takes her a moment to climb back up]

Oh...um...well it's...the thing is I really don't like bullies...so much...I'm a martial artist...so...so...

[cannotbelieve.livejournal.com]

Hey, nice to meet you! I don't know about your computer having Pong, though. It probably has something.

[supremefaith.livejournal.com]

Hi...Oh, I'm Kino Makoto, but it's okay to call me Mako. It's nice to meet you.

I know my computer has a lot of people popping up on it, though I don't really understand what's going on just yet.

[fireflyglaive.livejournal.com]

Mako-san!

[supremefaith.livejournal.com]

Ah? You...know who I am too...g-geez...I'm not normally this forgetful...um...so...I'm sorry, but where have we met?
