Creature Languages, 02/02, Period 3

[game-of-you.livejournal.com]

There is a small white rat sitting on the lectern, while Dream stands to one side. At Dream's nod, the rat addresses the class in English in a voice that is clear, though high-pitched.

"Hey, kiddos. I'm Racso. I'm supposed to help teach you guys Rat. Heh. Might be easier to just teach all us rats English. But whatever, I ain't getting paid for my opinion.

Anyhow, your professor is passing out a vocabulary sheet. You're supposed to try to ask me a question from it in Rat. Go into English if you hafta. But study it over the weekend, 'cause on Monday, you're gonna need to talk to each other in Rat."

He turns to Dream. "Anything else I gotta say?" At the shake of Dream's head, Racso gnaws on the lectern briefly, then addresses the class again. "So who wants to go first?"

[OOC: Racso is loosely borrowed from "Racso and the Rats of NIMH", though my memory of the book is imperfect. Forgive any canon fumbles. Also, work is looking busy, so I may be slow.]

Somehow Sakura seems to be amused that she isn't grossed out by a rat. He's white, isn't he? Obviously, if his coat is white like that, he's clean. She eyes the worksheet.

"Umm..."

//At least you don't have to speak in rhyme like//

"Lockheed"

//did...// She frowns. What the hell do you ask a rat? She tried to think of something conversational, rather than a question. She failed.

//How's about you ask me something, to be different? //

Racso snorts at the mention of speaking in rhyme. //Yeah, there ain't many rat poets, thank the gods.//

He considers her other point, bouncing a little on the podium. "Okay. What's your favorite thing to eat?"

Sakura chuckles a little. She liked this rat. She eyes the vocabulary sheet to see if she can answer in Rat. That's what they were supposed to be practicing anyway, right? She frowns. Well, considering most food she loved most was from Japan, she didn't seen any of it. So she settled for the next best thing; her favourite "American" food.

//Pancakes,// she replied rather simply.

//Pancakes are great,// Racso answers cheerily.
