[ tucked against the corner of the couch, head lolling a bit as he dazes, an arm loosely wrapped around nathan's waist. the touch is as unintrusive as it gets -- relaxed and open so that nathan can get away anytime he wishes. twitches once in a while in his daze, however, still relatively aware as people appears & disappears in the map in his head. ]

[ looks distraught right after the words leave his lips, prompting him to quickly add on: ]

< A. . . a little. . . ? >

[ raises an eyebrow, then laughs. uses both of her hands to ruffle his hair. ]

< It looks like at least one of them likes you a lot! I'm sure the others do, too! >

[ removes herself to put her hands on her hips, looking caleb up and down. expression softens, a tiny smile on her lips. ]

< You've grown up so much. It seems like you're doing really well for being in a foreign place on your own. I'm proud of you, Caleb. >

[ smiles back. ]

. . . Danke, Hilda.

[ gives him a nod... and then her smile grows wider, quickly switching languages. ]

So this means you're a pro at English, right?

[ starts at the switch & makes a strained noise from the back of his neck as he quickly puts together an answer. ]

I am not bad? Erm. . . but not good.

But you look like you understand it a lot better!

[amusieren.livejournal.com]

[ begins their walk again, lifting a finger in the air. ]

You must master English if you are planning to stay here! We will use English in public from now on.

[ looks more than a little distraught. ]

Ehhh. . . ?!

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

Hilda really want English. . . ?

[amusieren.livejournal.com]

Really! It's been a while since I've used it, after all.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

But Hilda is very good. Talk good like Nathan.

[amusieren.livejournal.com]

[ laughs, reaching for his hand. ]

That is a very nice compliment!

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ takes & squeezes. ]

It is true!

[amusieren.livejournal.com]

Then you will speak just as well sooner or later! You have more than one teacher now, yes?

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

I try! Get star in book, and speak good with team and Hilda.

[amusieren.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes! Maybe you will even get those three stars before I go back home, hm? Complete your collection until you visit me!

[ nods determinedly. ]

Ja! I finish before Hilda go back.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

What I need to do?

[amusieren.livejournal.com]

How about you just keep up a conversation with me in English? Until the end of the day. I'll think of more things later~

Okay!

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

Erm. At house too?

[amusieren.livejournal.com]

At your home too, yes.

[echolocating.livejournal.com]

[ looks confused. ]

Home is Deutschland?

[amusieren.livejournal.com]

[ pauses. then laughs. ]

"Home" can also mean a place you currently live in, especially if you feel comfortable there.
