Leia
"Maybe you should reconsider volunteering as a model for an art show, then..." Natsumi suggests. "You've got time to think about it."
Her skirt starts vibrating. "Oh, sorry. This might be important." She looks at her phone and you see she has a text message labeled from someone labeled "Butts."
"Where are you? We're going to be late!" the message says.
"Oh... Sorry, Leia. I promised the head of the Occult club I'd meet him to talk about stuff tonight. Looks like I have to go," Natusmi says. As she closes her phone, you notice that its screen is cracked. And her wallpaper is a cute fox. You feel like you've seen it before.
Natsumi jumps down out of the tree and looks up at you to make sure you can get down.

"Oh... You might be right... Thinking is not my forte."
Leia stares at the phone but decides to not say anything about it.
"Have fun, I'll try catching up with my studies."
Leia will go back home to study again, after jumping down from the tree.

(Everyone else is done and some people for days and this is just starting, so...)
You find out the guy's name is Sachi and you learn a bit about fishing from him. Not that he's very good, but at least he has a solid grasp of the theory behind it. He ends up going home with three small fish, but he's satisfied.
You feel a bit more Knowledgeable about worldly things.
Then you go home and read your book.
Imagining being stuck in some of the ridiculous situations the characters go through gives you Courage.

Leia
You head to the park. Zack's expecting you. He's organizing a flock of elementary-aged kids into a soccer game when you arrive. He waves.

Leia waves at Zack and the kids.
"Oh... You... You're busy?"

"A bit. Once I get the kids going, I don't need to pay too close of attention to them. Unless one starts crying." Zack shrugs. "You can try coaching one of the groups, if you want to compete."

"Can? Can I?
I'd like that!"
(Again, not familiar with the english school system. What range of age are elementary kids?)

I dunno, like... 6-11?
Leia
"Sure." Zack whistles. "Hey, kids. Uh... You guys. You'll be one team. You're going to be with me. And the rest of you, listen to, uh, Leia here. Yeah."
A group of the kids look at Zack, then swarm over to you. They all stare at you expectantly.

Leia kneels to be at the same height as the kids, then tries to teach them a thing or two. For once, she seems in her element.
"Alright... I'm sure you're all excited about kicking the ball in the goal, but it's not what really matters. Never forget that soccer is a team sport. You need to pass the ball to your teamates constantly. Your opponents will most likely try to swarm whoever has the ball. That's when you give one of your teamate the chance to shine. You're in trouble and your teamate is open? Pass the ball to him. Don't be a lone wolf. Be a team.
Oh. Never forget that you're allowed to hit the ball with your head. The only thing you can't do is touch the ball woth your hands. Don't hurt yourself though.
So... Someone wants to practice passes?"
Leia smiles at them and seems excited.

"No, we wanna play!" one kid says. "Zack already made us do drills today."
Zack's group is moving into a formation.

"Alright, let's play! Remember, we're a team!"
Leia will try to encourage passes during the game.

Leia
You try to tell your kids what to do, but they don't really listen to you. They mostly run around and do what they want.
Zack also tries to give his kids directions, and shows he knows a bit more about soccer strategy than you... but his kids mostly run around and do what they want.
Seriously, some of them are just playing with dandelions...
After a 30-minute match, as the kids start going home, the final score is 0-0. A whopping 5 shots came anywhere close to either goal. There ball spent more time out-of-bounds than in play.
"Well... good try today," Zack tells his group. "That was a lot better than usual."

"The important is that you had fun! I hope you did at least.
Great job to all of you."
Leia looks back at Zack.
"You do this often? You didn't strike me as someone who particularly like people..."

"Often? No. A few times a month. When I feel like it." Zack tries to turn the tough-guy routine back on, but it's too late. You've seen through it.

"Why are you ashamed of this? What you do for these kids is amazing!"
