S1.01: Commencement, 02 of 03
Jun. 16th, 2015 08:28 amAnother day, another training exercise. Izana was in the changing room and waiting for the organic catheter of their skinsuit to withdraw. Today they shared the room with the only other intersexed pilots currently training at the Academy; Mitsukawa Daisuki, Kameyama Rui, and Shioya Masumi.
"So Izana, I heard you saw that underdweller and even made friends with him. What's that all about?" Rui asks as they stretched their arms. Stiff from a workout, they were just getting themselves ready for a shower, but there was gossip to be had.
"I don't know there is much to tell. His name is Tanikaze Nagate and he says he's always lived underground with his grandfather. I can believe it because he was quite smelly and his only clothing was an old vacuum suit; the kind worn before skinsuits." Izana replied as they pulled off their skinsuit and hung it within their locker. "He acts funny, too."
"How do you mean?" Daisuki asked through a curtain of black hair as they tied up their boots. Their classes and examines were over and so they were getting ready for a night on the town.
"Well, he didn't know I was bigender. In fact, he didn't even know about the other genders. And in class, he said 'Hello, everyone' when told to introduce himself," Izana explained with a little laugh, which they quickly covered with their hand so as to not be rude.
"How immature," Masumi murmured from behind their notebook. As usual, they were studying. "Why didn't he just wait for the class to respond as is proper?"
"I don't know. I also don't understand why he was enrolled in the Garde Pilot Cadet program. I asked him if he had some special ability, but he denied having any special skill or ability. He even scored lowest when he tried one of the Garde simulators. He seems nice enough, but I just don't understand why he's in the Garde Pilot program since it's so hard to get in. What makes him so special?"
"I think someone is showing a lot of attention to a mysterious new boy," Daisuki teased. "Is he pretty at least?"
"It's not that!" Izana exclaimed, a bit embarrassed. Nagate was appealing but that wasn't the point. "I just don't want an innocent person to get hurt or other pilots to be in danger because he isn't up to the task."
"Of course dear," Daisuki replied with a knowing grin which sent the others snickering and Izana blushing.
