Good afternoon,

If I may: what are some activities that those ages 14-18 enjoy engaging in here?
If you're in that age range, or have been in the past, what was a typical day like at home for you at that time?

Are you employed here? If so, what is it you do? Does it align with your skills and interests? Did you have any experience when you began it?

Thank you for any answers you can provide.

That's very admirable. I don't really know anything about cooking. [ shinra taught him a lot, but also didn't want him to be too independent. ] I certainly didn't know anything about types of oil.

Why would it not? It's something that people typically celebrate, isn't it? Did you have the opportunity to do so here?

[drugsnotclubs]

yeah? That's alright. Some people never had to cook in their lives. There's usually someone at the club building if you ever wanna stop by. Just have an idea of something you wanna make. I'll send you the club building location.

I guess most people do. It didn't seem that important to me. I could have if I wanted to, I guess.

[aonibi]

Thank you, that would be nice. I'll do some research before I attend.

I see. I suppose I'm not very familiar with birthday customs.

[drugsnotclubs]

no problem. Kotone's good with baking so see her to learn about breads or pastries or whatever. I do more meal cooking.

It's like any other custom: different depending on who and where you are. A lot of people go for a party with friends and cake. I learned how to do a pinata earlier this year for one. But then I did basically nothing for mine.

[aonibi]

I don't think I'll have much use for baking, typically, but I'll keep the name in mind. [ he's willing to break his diet, even if he feels anxious about it, but pastries might be taking it a step too far. ]

I guess there are a lot of decisions to make around one's birthday. [ pinata? one more word to look up. ]

It seems like life proceeds more or less as normal here.

[drugsnotclubs]

I'm sure you'll see her somewhere, she works everywhere.

You sound like you're thinking hard about that. Got one coming up?

And.... Yeah. It's weird, but what else is anyone supposed to do? I've been here almost a year, after all.

[aonibi]

Oh. No, not that I'm aware of. I don't know mine.
I suppose I just ask a lot of questions about a lot of things. [ people answer them here a lot more consistently than the professor ever has. ]

Pardon. It wasn't a complaint. I'm glad that there's a certain amount of mundane normalcy here.

[drugsnotclubs]

oh yeah? orphan, I guess?

[shinji you can't just ask if someone is an orphan???]

Between that and never knowing other kids sounds like you've had a weird life.

You should definitely join Scott's club then he's all over showing people how to do normal shit

[aonibi]

I suppose I must be. [ vincent says that his mother is dead, anyway. ]

It hasn't been typical, no. I must not be the only one, though, if Scott teaches other people these sorts of things.
