Fifteenth Wish (Video)

[Gohan is sitting at a table, and though it's all neatly organized, there are stacks of books and papers all over it. Independent projects, you know. That fun university stuff. His expression is thoughtful and curious, kind of giving the impression that he's been considering this for a while.]

I've been thinking lately about what I want to do when I get older. I'm coming to the end of my first year of university here, and it really seems like I should have some kind of focus in mind for next year.

I'm just not sure what yet, though. I've thought about a few things, but . . . How do you decide? [Grown-up decisions. How do they work?]

[[OOC: Backdated to say . . . early evening or so. Also, open to action for Nelliel and/or Ulquiorra if they want.]]

The decision of which path to take toward the future is yours to make. [not really helpful]

[hybrid_prodigy]

[No, not really. But he doesn't mind.] Oh, I know nobody can decide for me. I'm just curious about how people other people narrowed down what they wanted to do, and try and see if that process helps me.

Would you base your own decision on how your peers determined to answer this question for themselves?

I'd take the answers into account, at least. I have a few ideas; I'm just not sure how to narrow it down and figure out what it is that I really want.

Consider pursuing what you find most pleasing.

I'm thinking about engineering, medicine, or teaching, but I'm not sure which one I like the most.

Which university do you attend?

SPU. I know the others are more specialized, but I wasn't really comfortable with the whole thing about them being affiliated.

[That would be the reason he has not seen the other boy at the schools.]

I attend Hawthorne University and the University of Hillsdale.

[He blinks at that, actually rather impressed. Forget affiliation, this is cool.] Wow, you go to both? I haven't seen any other kids close to my age at the universities; I was starting to think I was the only one.

[You are his age and going to university. This is therefore awesome.]

Yes, it is as I stated, [he responds with stoic patience. As is usual for him, Spock remains blank-faced, even as Gohan turns excited.] While they may contain affiliation biases, the universities offer adequate education courses for Earth facilities. [He's not old enough for a full-time job (that doesn't stop him from freelance programming, etc) and he uses the classes to fill up his days.] It is expected that the greater percentage of attendees to these higher grades on Earth would be of an age between seventeen and twenty-five. The level of your intellect must be above Terran average if you are indeed "close to my age."

[Stoic, linefacey people are some of his best friends ever. He doesn't bat an eye at the flat tone. Completely normal, as far as he's concerned.]

I was homeschooled back in my world; it wasn't until I got here that I found out I seemed to be ahead of the other kids my age. And . . . you look about eleven or twelve?

[Latching onto something else now.] So you're not from Earth, then. [He's getting the sense that there's more in common here than being advanced students. Even though he was born on Earth.]
