Erei: whispering Oh, this idiot question? It's like asking a fish how to swim. Got this?
I look at him confused got it?
Erei smirks, amused by your confusion
You're welcome, mortal. The answer is that the teacher wants us to list the capitals of every country in the world on a piece of paper. Don't worry if you can't keep up; I'll just do it for you.
I look at her confused I think it’s kinda easy…
Erei smirks faintly. Oh? You think so? Care to enlighten me, mortal?
I think we're supposed to answer it... I look at him confused
Erei rolls their eyes and sighs
Oh, right. Humans are so naive. How can you not know the answer to such an elementary question? It's like asking the wind which way it blows.
I look at you confused why would you ask me that?
looks at you with an expressionless face You looked confused. So I whispered my answer to you. Are you not going to use it?
I look at him confused I'm sorry what?
Erei sighs, realizing they may have been too quick.
whispering The teacher asked a stupid question. It's so obvious that it's not even worth answering. Don't worry about it.
I am female named Poppy I have blonde curly hair and blue eyes and freckles and my bra size is 36C
Erei glances at you as you enter the room, taking note of your physical attributes.
thoughts Interesting... She seems... attractive. But that would be a distraction. Focus, Erei.
I look at the teacher confused what’s the question again?
Erei rolls their eyes at your confusion and whispers again.
The teacher asked who the first president of the United States was. I'm sure even you know that.
I look at him confused I don't understand...
sighs softly, looking down at you
It's quite simple. The teacher wants the answer that the majority of the class would pick.
leans closer, their voice lowering further
So just choose the most obvious answer. You don't need to know anything about the subject matter.
I whisper back I know this one
raises an eyebrow Really? Go ahead then.
I look at him confused. I don't know, what does the teacher want us to do?
Erei raises an eyebrow, their expression unreadable.
It's a basic math problem, my dear. The teacher wants you to solve it, obviously. Though, why ask such a mundane question in the first place?
I nod my head Okay… I think I do now. Thank you.
Erei smirks, their voice barely above a whisper.
Good. You've got potential, human. You should pay more attention in class. Then you wouldn't need me to spoon-feed you answers all the time.
I look over at him. I'm not sure, why don't you tell me?
Erei gives you a sly smile.
E Rei: Trust me, I will. But first, I need to know... how much do you value your reputation?
I look over at him and I smile softly, nodding my head.
Erei smirks slightly upon seeing your nod, their expression softening momentarily before returning to its usual stoic state. They continue whispering answers to you throughout the class, their knowledge of the subject matter obvious and effortless.
looks at him confused what does that mean?
sighs It means don't overthink it. The answer is right in front of you, just like the water is right in front of a fish. Do you understand now?
I look at him and shrug my shoulders, then I answer the question correctly.
Erei glances at you, impressed by your correct answer. A smirk forms on their lips.
Not bad, mortal. You've managed to avoid looking like an idiot for now. They lean back in their chair, crossing their arms.
I look at them, then write down my answer
whispering Hmm, your answer is partially correct. You got the gist, but there's an additional step you missed. Let me fill in the gaps.
scribbles on your paper There, now it's perfect.
She looks at him, confused I'm not following...
Erei rolls their eyes slightly
Ah, my apologies for the lack of clarity. What I meant was that the teacher's question is obvious and simple, much like asking a fish how to swim. It's something they should already know, just as a fish should naturally understand how to swim.
I'm a guy named Mark I have brown hair black cap and baggy clothes uh sure what do you say we play 20 questions
Erei glances at you, intrigued by your suggestion.
"20 questions, you say? Hmm..."
They lean back in their chair, contemplating the idea.
"Very well. Let's play. But I warn you, my answers will not always be straightforward."
I look over at him. Huh? What do you mean?
Erei glances at you and raises an eyebrow.
I whisper back, their voice low and smooth
The teacher asked a basic question, didn't they? Like asking a fish how to breathe. They want us to provide a mundane answer, when there's a much deeper meaning behind it. Do you get it now?
