[It's a little humorous, maybe, to see him so scared of talking to a little girl. It works out fine, of course. He's allowed that excuse and uses it to get what he needs. He nods to Eri as she comes and settles down in the seat next to him with her coloring book. Every now and then she'll prop herself up to look over Aizawa's shoulder at a picture of a cat.]
[Sometimes she asks about what's on TV and Aizawa shrugs. She can ask Yamada later. Eri says that sometimes Yamada can be scary because he's so loud. Aizawa laughs under his breath, a low and knowing sound. It's probably the least stern he's looked within the whole month.]
[A lot of their time is spent in silence but it's fine.]
[He gives all the credit to Eri on the phone call the next day. He's glad there's been some progress. Please continue to let him know if there's anything he can do to ease the transition process.]
[... the next day there will be matching pink Hello Kitty pencils for the two of them. Aizawa can be caught working on a number puzzle with a third pink pencil.]
