Words From Strangers

by PuppyRhodes

Thor Odinson and Loki Laufeyson. Both 17 years old, studying for their A-Levels. Their schools have joined up in a pen pal project, so that the students have someone to talk to who doesn't know them, who has a fresh perspective, who can talk them through any problems they might be having.

Thank you for your email, Thor.

I am Loki Laufeyson, and I attend Jotun High. Incedentally, we have a student here whose father is a famous businessman; Anthony Stark is his name, although I don't much care for him.
As for speaking about your problems, please feel free to do so. I do not know what sort of problems you have which make you feel as though you are not able to share them for fear of being a burden, but I can assure that they would be a welcome distraction to my own, which I am afraid I do not wish to talk about.

I suppose that means we shall simply have to chat, as I would hate for this opportunity to be wasted. Although, if you are truly opposed to talking to me; I won't make you do something you don't want to.
Those are all very sensible subjects, except maybe for Sport, which I must admit I have never seen much point in. But why do you not want to study business? And why do you continue to do so if you dislike it so much?
Incase you are interested, I am studying Art, Theatre Studies, English Liturature and History.

I thank you for your kind offer, but I am afraid I am more of a listener.

Loki
