“R-really? That would be nice of you…” He was still uncertain, though. “I can’t really see them, but I dunno, maybe if I squint or something…”

Alfredo jumped at the older boy’s voice inside his head. Oh, so it works both ways! Ahh, that’s super cool! He smiled brightly as William did. There was just something really nice about sharing happiness like this. “Then let’s go! I’ve got to see where I’m staying.”

It became clear as they walked along that Alfredo didn’t have a very normal idea of what a room should look like. He was imagining a cushy pillow to rest on, a nice big water dish, maybe something to chew on… and he was a little disoriented in general, too. He marveled at things like being able to open doors, and at times he would wonder just how to use his fingers, and wiggle them curiously.

<div align=center>William nodded, though was confused when Alfredo mentioned not being able to see them. "Maybe you need glasses!" He chirped, he wore glasses, though only for reading and watching TV, things like that. It couldn't be nice to not be able to see very well. He thought that there must be an optician in the city somewhere, Alfredo would look cute with glasses, besides. "They'd suit you, and you'd be able to see better!" Bill wondered if the boy had even ever been to an optician, it was scary for someone that had never been, and the dentist was even worse. Bill shuddered at the thought, he didn't like the dentist, or the doctors.

Yeah! It does! He answered, I can talk to people in classes like this... I don't get told off for talking when the teacher is. Not that he did that very often, the only person he really had full blown conversations with mentally was Gabriel, since he was one of the few people that didn't feel uncomfortable with William inside his head. It was a strange sensation to someone that wasn't really used to it.

William stuck out a hand for Alfredo to take, a friendly notion rather than anything else, he didn't really understand social boundaries all that well just yet. "I hope it's near mine." He chirped, William hadn't really worked out yet that Alfredo really was a rabbit a short time ago. Nevertheless, William rather liked him. "I can help you unpack your things too, if you'd like."</div>

“Glasses…” That wasn’t a word he knew. Well, he did. He knew glasses, like, cups. Glass cups. Made of gl – okay, he should stop thinking about that, it was just confusing him. People wearing glasses on their eyes… “Well, if it works, I think I’d like to try them!”

Ehhh? You’re not allowed to talk in class? But – isn’t that how you get ideas across and stuff?

Alfredo jolted a little bit when there was a hand near him – was he being hit? Was he going to be hit?! Or petted?! But William just… put his hand there, and Alfredo just stared.

He really didn’t know what to do with it. “Umm… I don’t have anything the school didn’t give me, and I haven’t taken a look at what I have yet, but sure! You can help me figure out what of the stuff is, ahaha.”

<div align=center>William nodded enthusiastically, "they will make it easier to see..." He told him, getting the feeling that this boy was just a little confused for a moment. William wondered still why he couldn't read, but he thought it might be a bit rude to ask him. Perhaps he hadn't had a very good upbringing, or maybe he hadn't been to school before. William certainly wouldn't have been able to work out the real reason behind it, he just thought the rabbit-like air about the boy was part of his powers. He'd met a boy with kitty ears before, and he even thought he'd seen a boy around somewhere with antlers.

Well... We are, but not while the teacher is explaining things to us.

William soon realized that Alfredo, didn't really know what to do with his hand, so the boy went ahead and wove his fingers through Alfredo's. "Huh? Didn't you bring any?" He asked, confused. "No clothes, or blankets...?" He'd brought an awful lot of things with him when he had transferred here. The idea of arriving here with nothing confused him a little, maybe Alfredo didn't really own many possessions? "Don't you own any things? I suppose.. You don't really need much.. There's already a bed, and a bathroom.."</div>

“Okay! Then I’ll have to get some!” Some cups! To put on his eyes! It didn’t make much sense to him, but the idea of being able to see better was very exciting.

Alfredo visibly relaxed when it turned out people were allowed to talk in class. Oh, I was worried for a moment…

He looked at William’s hand curiously as it was linked with his own, not entirely sure what was happening. “Mm? No, I didn’t have any clothes before! The school gave them all to me. They’re pretty nice, so I guess it’s okay! I mean, I’ve had an accessory or two in the past, but nothing like pants before. Pants are cool.”

<div align=center>William had absolutely no idea that Alfredo thought he meant drinking glasses. Therefore he never really explained it. It didn't occur to him that someone might not understand what glasses were. William smiled at his new friend, and laughed softly at the boy's relief. It wouldn't be any fun at all if they weren't allowed to talk in class at all, but he could understand why they weren't allowed to talk while the teacher was explaining something to them, what was rude to talk then, besides. William didn't like being rude, besides.

He was confused at Alfredo's wonder at pants, too. Didn't everyone have pants? He felt like it was impolite to question it, so he merely smiled and nodded at his comment instead of asking about it. Maybe he'd find out about that some other time. As they turned a corner toward the dorms, William decided he very much liked this boy, he was interesting. William liked interesting people.
