This has been bothering me for a while... I've actually been thinking about it all day and still can't make sense of it.

........

Why do they call it 'chili' if it's hot...?

...AAH! You're right!!

Why would they do that?!

[Considering how much English he speaks, he doesn't really get why that would be odd. Still...]

It's... it's from Chile?

[love-lostomates.livejournal.com]

[Oh my goodness I'm sorry about this.

He simply shrugs, grinning cheerfully.]

Well, when we first found chiles when we were exploring México, we called them pimientos instead. But the Aztecs called them, uh...how did they say it...?

[After a moment, he shrugs.]

Anyway, it sounded like chile, so that's what we named them! It is kind of weird that they sound like 'chilly', but that's just England's silly way of saying it.

You know...I haven't a clue. But now I want some.

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

Oh, dear.

How ever to do you get through the day?

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

I have no idea! Is there some joke we're not getting?! This is like the time I was trying to figure out why no one measured the speed of dark if there's a speed of light!

[You need to pay more attention in class, Brosuke.]

Then that's not an excuse! Why do foreign languages have to be so weird?!

[derpsona.livejournal.com]

[But that's his valuable naptime!]

Man, don't ask me, I failed the crap out of English. I'm not even sure why that's weird.

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

...

[Excuse her while she stares blankly into space for a moment as she silently processes this information. Slowly.]

Oh, I see. Foreign languages are very hard... There always seems to be a lot of room for confusion.

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

You know, I think I'd like something spicy about now too! What a great idea! I wonder where I could get some?

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

Weeeeeell, I push it in the back of my mind as I go about my day! So even though I'm not thinking about it as hard, I'm still thinking about it while I'm doing other things.

[He doesn't need naps! There's no Tired System! AND SLEEP IS FOR THE WEAK!]

Awww, you should study more, Hanamura-kun! Want me to tutor you?

[derpsona.livejournal.com]

[Why would he need tutoring? There's no school here!]

...Actually, I'd really like that.

[bigass-sword.livejournal.com]

One of the restaurants may have some.

[thebutler-epic.livejournal.com]

How bothersome.

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

[So that you're less stupid when you go home. KNOWLEDGE IS POWER!]

Cool! Hmmm... Though I think bro wouldn't like it if I brought a guy to my room. I wonder where would be a good meeting place?

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

True! Is there one you recommend in particular?

[derpsona.livejournal.com]

[Or, when you go home, depending on...]

What about my place? It's not like I'm sharing the apartment with anyone else, so nothing to worry about there...

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

Oh, sounds good! Name your day and time, Hanamura-kun!

[Intentions. Minami doesn't get them. OR DOES SHE?]

[derpsona.livejournal.com]

How about tomorrow? I'll treat you to dinner first, and we'll grab some books on the way here afterwards.

[If she does, then even better, seeing as she's going along with it. Of course, there's no way this should be so easy for Yosuke, so he's just waiting for the catch.]

[bigass-sword.livejournal.com]

Not really. I haven't been here very long.

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

Dinner...? You're really going to pay for it?

[Boy you have given yourself a death sentence to your wallet. This girl's stomach is Chie times three.]

It's a date, then! I'll be looking forward to it.

[letalis-anima.livejournal.com]

Ah, me neither! What a coincidence. Maybe if I find a place that serve some really awesomely hot food, I'll be sure to tell you!

[derpsona.livejournal.com]

Well, it's only the polite thing to do, right?

[Oh, I know it. He doesn't, sure, but I do. :3 ]

Awesome! I'll pick you up around five.

[bigass-sword.livejournal.com]

All right, thanks. My name's Zack, by the way. Zack Fair.
