[center][h2][color=steelblue]『[b]G H O S T[/b]』 - [b]Subject 313[/b][/color][/h2] [img]http://i.imgur.com/jIWeiQO.png[/img][/center] [hr][hr] Ghost looked at the girl as she reacted rather hostile to him - hostile, to a degree, in the same way that tall black figure had acted. It left a bad taste in his mouth, but he couldn't tell how or why. So far, this had been normal for him, as everyone had treated him rather hostile. He looked her in the eyes as she spoke, since it didn't occur to him to look away after she had spoken to him so bluntly - he wanted to make sure she understood that he was not inferior to her, some sort of natural instinct within him driving him to 'compete' so to speak. Compete for respect, or perhaps compete for.. competitions sake? Because it was a game of finding out who the weakest, most easy to bully person in the group was? Ghost had made sure to remind himself it wasn't him, although he wasn't sure if other people were even playing the game. Was it all in his head? [indent][color=steelblue][b]“Okay.”[/b][/color][/indent] His reply came equally as cold and direct as the one the girl had given him, though he lacked the pained expression she had that made her look less cold and more annoyed. Regardless, he watched on as she left the room, leaving him alone in the gym. It made him slightly uneasy at first, but looking around the gym, the thought that there was actually nothing wrong with being alone filled his head. [i]Alone is not lonely. I know that. Why? If you are lonely you are.. alone? But if you are alone you're not always lonely..[/i] His thoughts confused him more than the girl had done, and he wondered how he knew what was what. Shoulders raised as he shrugged at his thoughts, his mind wandering from the meaning of the words alone and lonely, to the thought of tomorrow. Although he was still just as confused to the meaning of the word 'tomorrow' that had entered his mind, he found some vague concept of the meaning in his head. 'Tomorrow' was not the same as 'today' or 'yesterday'. What was a day? Lacking an understanding of time, he couldn't quite fathom what a day was, since he had never seen a sun, or a moon, or a night or a day, or.. there were so many things he had never seen but still, the words were imprinted in his head and it was curious and frightening at the same time. Ghost shook his head. Perhaps there would be a better time to think about these concepts later, for now he was more interested in getting sleep. Following the same direction the crew had taken, he left the gym hall behind him and headed to the dorms. While there were plenty of rooms to pick from, and including some that were probably taken but that he could still pick if he wanted to room with someone else, he still opted for a solitary room. For now. None of these peoples seemed particularly friendly with Ghost and they didn't seem to be interested in them. Rather than force a friendship, Ghost took the thoughts he had earlier to heart. With a thump he laid his body down on the bed and sighed heavily. Being born was a big deal but.. Being alone doesn't mean being lonely.
