[Even though the feed's started, Genda's quiet for a moment or so - it's unclear if he doesn't know the video's running, or if he's just nervous. But he does speak after a bit of silence, his face serious.]

Hello. I am... Er.
My name is Genda Koujirou - I am the goalkeeper of Neo Japan, if anyone is familiar with my team. I have a few questions, for those willing to listen and answer them. Please be respectful - I am new to all of this, so...

[How did Coach Hitomiko put it?]

... So backtalk won't be tolerated, alright?

[... Augh - he shakes his head at that, steeling himself again. Talking to presumably a lot of people - it's got him nervous. But his Coach wouldn't be nervous like this, and neither would the rest of his team!]

I want to know just a few things.
Was our world really "destroyed"? Is there real, tangible proof?
And where are we? Looking out the windows, there was only fog as far as I could see... it's odd.
Is there a way out of here?

[He pauses then, looking to the side, before looking back; he doesn't really want to believe there isn't, but...]

... If there is no way out, I have just a couple questions.
Is there a way to stay preoccupied? And what kind of animals live here?
Also, is there a soccer field? Or, at the very least, a field large enough for one?

[Sakuma stares at him with his eye narrowed for a moment longer before he backs off.]

Fine, forget it then. I'll pass on learning your hissatsu techniques.

[Because if it's stupid enough for Genda to act this way? Even if he promises not to, Sakuma's sure he'll get mad anyway.]

[whatpenguin]

...

[He can't help looking down at his feet then, and shakes his head.]

... I'll teach you them anyway, whatever.
You would probably get mad at me anyway, and I'm used to your anger by now.

[kickspenguins]

No it's fine because it won't be fair.

[Since he didn't agree to Genda's condition... because apparently that's an important issue right now or something.]

[whatpenguin]

... But you'll be without such a great way to defend yourself.
You may be able to throw a punch better than Kidou, but you have to admit - you're not a fighter, Sakuma.

[... Or maybe he is? Genda wouldn't know - he's never had to fight with him before.]

[kickspenguins]

[He crosses his arms and shrugs.] I'll figure out a way somehow.

[whatpenguin]

...

Ah, actually. I think it would be more fair to teach you my techniques anyway, Sakuma.

[All things considered.........]

[kickspenguins]

Suit yourself then. [If he insists, Sakuma's not going to say 'no'. Besides, knowing more things is beneficial.

But really, what could Genda be planning. He's not sure he wants to know.]
