"Book learning..?" Ryo's smile faded. "So we don't get to stay out here and do this all day?" That sucked. He'd much rather stay out here and try to punch stuff.

Oki laughed and mussed his hair. "There's more to being a ninja than punching things. There are things you need to learn and understand before I can start teaching you techniques that will use chakra."

"Chakra? That's the stuff that lets ninjas do cool shit right?" He slumped, looking sullen. That stuff was less fun and -much- harder then what they had just been doing. "Okay fine..." He heaved a heavy sigh. "I guess I'll try..."

You've heard of chakra already? I'm impressed! Good job, Ryo. I didn't know you were this keen on becoming a ninja!"

Ryo flushed a touch and managed a small grin. "It's nothing, just something I heard about the other day~" But he was puffed up a bit again at the praise. Maybe this class stuff wouldn't be quite so bad.

"Good job, Ryo. I'm glad you're putting so much effort into this, but you should go get some lunch. It'll be a long afternoon if you're hungry."

"Okay sure! I like food~" He would never turn down food and was feeling a touch hungry. "See you later Oki!" And he scampered off to go find something to eat to tide himself over for the rest of this day.

Oki waved him off and walked back to her office. Sparring with Ryo had made her feel a bit more like herself, but as she looked down at her lunch, she felt her stomach flip. Ugh. She'd eat supper, she decided, and leaned back in her chair to try and grab a quick nap.

Lunch was some quick noodles and a nap under a tree. But not napping too much. He wouldn't be late again. The last thing he wanted to do was disappoint Oki. He made sure he was there just as the bell was going off.

The bell startled Oki awake, and she shook her lightly before standing up. She collected her things and locked her office door behind her before walking down to the classroom. Hopefully Ryo would be on time this afternoon...

The bell was a much better way of alerting Ryo to be timely and he did manage to be there shortly after the bell. He waved at her when he entered the classroom and then took one of the seats that were left in the back. He leaned forward with his elbows on the desk wondering what would come next.

Oki nodded at the wave as she sat down at her desk. "Alright, this afternoon we're going to get a start on the presentations you've all been preparing. You know your order and your topics, so first up!"
Oki made a note to talk to Ryo after class about making up the assignment. The students had been instructed to prepare a brief presentation to discuss the benefits of taijutsu techniques, and had been working hard. The first student stepped to the front of the room nervously.

Ryo rested his chin in a palm and settled in to try paying attention to the presentations. He did try though... Unfortunately he ended up slumped forward on his desk half asleep. He had no idea what they were talking about and kept scribbling useless gibberish on the board up front. Boooooring.

Oki kept her attention split between the students presenting, jotting down notes on their presentations, and watching the class. She frowned as she watched Ryo. It wasn't the most exciting presentation of the material, it was true, but the other students were managing to stay awake for it...

Coupled with the vigorous exercise he had in the morning, coupled with the very boring presentations that he wasn't able to follow at all, he ended up falling into a light sleep. He wasn't being disruptive, but dozing quietly while occasionally cracking open an eye and ear to see if he could follow the next presentation. Sadly, he couldn't.
