'You build robots? That's so cool!' Able said, eyes sparkling. It wasn't everyday that you met someone with prosthetic legs, after all, and he was glad that the one person he met with prosthetic legs was friendlier than she first appeared. He didn't mind the pronunciation of his name, he found it hard to say many Japanese style names, so it didn't bother him if someone had trouble with his name. Maybe he would already make a new friend. It was shaping up to be a good day!'You must be really smart! I don't know how I'm in rank B myself. I'm not that great' Able said with a sheepish grin. 'Nice to meet you, Kobayashi-San! What subjects are you doing, by the way?'

Kimiko had almost forgotten what classes she had taken for the year. [b]"Hmm... robotics, computer science, calculus, applied science, biology, a~~nd general PE. I think that's all of them. I already have plans to build an ASIMO or something similar. My father works for Honda so he's going to get me some parts. I think I'll make it taller though. Which means I'll have to adjust the parameters for balance. Also, coordination software...[/b] Kimiko went on for a bit about the changes necessary to build her first robot of the year. 

She realized she was rambling about it and decided to change the subject to spare him the headache. She had become accustomed to discussing the finer points of robotics with her father, there were many nights where she had stayed up late talking with him, her mother would just smile and serve them tea. Most of her friends in school just ignored her rambling and left her to her own devices. It was easy for Kimiko to get lost in her work. [b]"What about your classes? Are you taking anything interesting?"[/b]
