Sometimes silence is more deafening than cacophony. Here’s hoping Benji can get as good a situation in class proper.
I know I’m that way; if it’s too quiet around me, I get very uncomfortable.
Also, I usually don’t do well with loud noises or big crowds.
So they think of Benji
the guy of brainy wealth
He’s made his own quick move
and isn’t up on the shelf.
He’s at the lucky paw
with all his other friends;
rolling and studying
his fun never quite ends.
Will he get Amy’s luck
or suffer River’s curse?
He’s found a place to learn;
for better or for worse…
Brainy Benji tries!
Maybe he’ll learn Amy’s luck?
Back to the old grind.
Heh. Here I thought there’d be a contrived coincidence with him already being at the library. But this is in-character and fits nicely. Aye, ambience makes a lot of difference for such things.
So who rolled the natural 20?
Benji’s focus factor is increased by +2 when in his environment and further doubled in his personal Domain. So River makes up for his clumsiness with the ability to learn quickly. I wonder if Kaya would be considered adequate ambient noise, she’s so energetic her molecules hum from the constant vibrations. Kai seems to have a talent for coming up with witty responses on the fly.
I discovered in college that I couldn’t concentrate well in an extra-quiet area like a library – the problem is that small noises suddenly become big distractions. I found I could study fairly well near the bowling alley, though.
Will the party gain two members for the quest for knowledge?
Panel 1: Add a comma to “noise”.
Panel 4: Ditto both “Hey”s.
Both of the hey’s were brought up by my proof readers as optional, so I left them out ^^
Panel 1: No.
So is this just Benji, or is this a tendency of hybrids who have aspects of pack animals?
When I saw this, my first thought was of hikers with backpacks! 🙂
Oh, yeah; Second thought was of donkeys, llamas, mules, etc. 🙂
Yeaaah Amy! You go, girl! As a kid who tutored older students in math when I was her age, I thoroughly approve.
Reminds me of the time my older sister asked me to explain to her the math she had copied from the board. I did a rather good job, besides not having a clue what those formulas where supposed to accomplish, until they came up in my own math class 1-2 years later.
How do hybrid people wear glasses?
The same way everyone else does.
Though the thing is they’ll need additional measurements for the frames. The optometrist probably has the right measuring devices for that.
