IS TIEM TO LEARN ENGRISH!!
Who: Tom and Kozue
What: Tom helps Kozue not flunk English
Where: Tom's dorm room.
When: Thursday afternoon.
Why: Because Kozue is devious

The knock on the door was no surprise to Tom. He really hadn't wanted Kozue to know where his dorm room was, In fact he had told her so, but she simply called him back two minutes later with the exact dorm number. Even then he refused, but she insisted over and over that the study session he had agreed to be held in his room. He finally agreed, but still, it didn't sit well with him.

So when the knock came, he opened the door and simply nodded to her.

"Kondo."

He stepped aside to let her in. And inside Kozue would find a fairly different Tom. In his room he had the weapons he usually carried into Paradise hung up by the closet. This meant he didn't need to wear his uniform blazer, so the blazer shirt, and tie were all hung up in the closet themselves, along with three more copies of the Nanakamdo school uniform, one or two appeared to be rather worse for wear.  There was also a black suit, and a few black t-shirts folded up, but that seemed to be it in the way of clothes.
Tom himself wore the uniform slacks, and a snug black t-shirt which was tight enough to rmeind Kozue of the catsuit he'd worn in Paradise for a short time.

The walls were covered in painters tape, creating lines between taped up peices of paper. On them were numerous notes on subjects such as killer, suspects, paradise and so fourth. As well as Pages on persons of interest, though one spot was suspiciously blank. None of these papers were taped any lower then three feet from the floor.

There were three peices of furniture; a bed, that had a pillow, a blanket, recognizeable as one of the bedding packs one could purchase from the school. There was also a desk with a computer hooked up to it.  The desk had a number of books piled up on top of it, apparently this was a new habit, as gnawed on books and torn out papers still littered the floor. And finally sitting on the floor was the standard small refridgerator.

Also on the floor was a small dish with water, one with food and a dog bed, with a Nanakamado blazer balled up on one side. Sitting on the little dog bad was the little puppy, who sprung up the second he heard the knock, and was at Kozue licking her heals before Thomas even had the door closed.

She shrugged. "I felt like it. And if I'm nice maybe you'll tell me the answers for my homework. Which is the right indefinite article: a mother or an mother?"

Yes, that quickly, she was off onto her worksheet; she had a list of questions she had to answer for class tomorrow, and no idea what answers were right. Of course she could have looked them up - her textbook was here, too - but that was time consuming and she had a native speaker right here. Why waste all that effort?

"A mother, an is only used for words that begin with vowels... oh yeah vowels is going to be a whole... mess."

He rubbed the bridge of his nose. Pretending to be nice to get something out of him made a lot more sense then just because she felt like it. No on is nice because they feel like it.

What, did he think she was really stupid, as opposed to just shitty at English? "I know what a vowel is," she said, rather testy, twirling her pen between her fingers. "So that's the rule. I always forget about how it works."

She checked off the correct box and, to her credit, did the next problem silently, pausing to nibble on the eraser of her pencil for a moment while she pondered "a grandmother".

"I might not speak English, but I have studied for exams in it every year since middle school."

He shook his head.

"No it's... in Japanese you only have five vowels. In English you have five... sometimes other times... six, and each vowel has multiple methods of pronunciation."

The puppy nudged Kozue's arm, she was no longer paying him the appropriate amount of attention. He tried to push his way under her arm, and into her lap.

"Here, c'more," she said, addressing Max, and letting him climb up into her lap; she smoothed down her skirt a little for him to find a comfortable place, and went back to scratching at his ears and head. "Yeah, long a and short a and... Oh, what do you call those things. Dipthings." She shrugged.

"Okay, let's see if I can get this right."

Gee, did she have to hold his hand while he tutored her? She sighed, and read off the next problem. "I do not have..." a pause. "Any sister. Wait, did I make it - damn, I didn't make it plural." She sighed. "I'm never going to get this, am I."
