"Yes, yes, but you do have a point there." Tanaka brought a hand to his chin, further emphasizing the appearance of utmost intellectual thought. Not that it really mattered in the long run anyway. "Yes, how [i]do[/i] they interact with one another without suffering to sudden combustion. Is it that they were born with a mutated cell in their bodies granting them a stronger immune system? Maybe they have high amounts of potassium in their blood so they can keep their energy levels high. . .maybe. . .maybe they're not human at all!"

Now this was getting out of hand. But the second year had gone past the point of logic. Besides, it was all in the name of knowledge and discovery, right? As the two continued walking, they eventually reached their destination: the library. Tanaka continued listing off possible reasons on why the others could get along for more than an hour.

"Aliens? No, no. Maybe some kind of supernatural creature. Yes, paranormal even. Something where their internal organs aren't reduced to slop after over exposure to social interaction. But what about the recharge energy periods. . . ?"

How ironic. When it came to disturbing stuff, Tanaka could go on forever. What kind of introvert was he again? Of course, he'd gladly point out that he was a [i]true[/i] introvert, not those hipster knockoffs defined by today's society. There's a difference you know.
