That wasn't what I meant. I'm just saying having friends makes it easier.

I hope it doesn't bruise your pride to know you aren't the first to do so.

[nodice]

You'd have to try a little harder than that.

Was the last one good?

[text]

[nodice]

To not have to think for yourself?

[text]

[starcharted]

Depends on what you think qualifies as good.

[nodice]

[ Okay, he laughed out loud at this. Nice. ]

Open for all possibilities, not bad, not bad~

[yokubo]

No!

You're really critical...

[closeminded]

so it's a possibility it's a zombie?

[text]

[nodice]

Point.

Just give me your personal thoughts.

[starcharted]

I liked it. Though, I couldn't figure out the answer to that one either.

[text]

[nodice]

Of course. That's kind of my job.

[nodice]

It is possible, yes.

[text]

[yokubo]

Eh? What do you mean by that?

[text]

[nodice]

That's not always a bad thing.

[nodice]

Ever heard of a teacher who could grade without being critical? Sheesh.

[closeminded]

then i count it as a win!!

[text]

[starcharted]

No? Does that mean there's been ones you haven't been able to figure out too?

[text]

[yokubo]

Oh! I guess not.

What did you teach?

Hope. There are several correct answers, of course, but I would say that hope is my preferred option today.

Coooorrect! Congratulations, you pass!

[ Because he considered different answers that are variable by inner feeling - in itself the riddle hadn't had any answer Kaiba preferred. It was the riddle-solving attitude that mattered. ]

[mysterioustransferstudent]

Oh? Was this a test?

[Koizumi was all about the riddle-solving attitude. He was the over-analytical type even before, and now that he was cooped up in prison all the time his mind was constantly in overdrive trying to find something interesting to do.]

Of course.
There were also times when an answer that seemed right all along turned out wrong... There is more than one trick to riddles.

Ethics and some electives that were unique to our school.
I'm also a homeroom teacher... poor girls, I bet they miss their belooooved teacher.
