Nature Vs Nurture || Dr. Stone

Z=3 A Big Oaf Has Joined the Party!

On this fine day where Tomoe went out to hunt, and visit her students in the Cave of Miracles (she questioned Senku for his cringe-worthy name but since she could not come up with a better one, she has to deal with this name until later) she came upon a naked man.

This naked man, Oki Taiju, rushed up to her and then froze to bow. Then he flushed red for the exposure. She unwrapped her large scarf from her shoulders and tossed it to him to cover his bottom.

"Thank you sensei!"

Ah, someone still has respect. Good student as always. Staying with a kid like Senku made her forget that there were still good students out there with manners.

"Sensei! You're out of stone too?"

"Yep. I'll take you to base, there's someone I wanna introduce you to. And also, stop calling me sensei, just call me Tomoe."

"But that's disrespectful-"

"Mah, don't worry about it. When have I ever been formal with you Tai?" He blinked as if to think about it before he tilted his head.

"Never?"

Ah, does she love the innocence of children. That look of naivety and questioning...she loved it. So pure and so beautiful, she hopes that it would last, but she knows, as a teacher and an adult, they'll lose that spark-

"Exactly." She nods and pushes aside that though, "C'mon, you don't want to be naked forever do you? Got more clothes back at base." The other nods with determination.

"Sensei! I'll take the basket!"

"It's fine. And I told you to call me Tomoe didn't I?"

"Sorry sensei, it's a habit now-" Tomoe irked and he apologized again and again.

"Alright. I got no way out of this don't I? Wait-don't answer that." She sighs. "Now then. let's get you back and introduce you to my son-"

"Sensei, you're married?!"

"I'm not interested in green onion. Thank you very much." Tomoe laughed at his genuine confused look, she could imagine question marks coming out of his head.

"I introduce to you, my son-"

"Taiju? I knew someone like you-"

"SENKU!"

"DON'T HUG ME WHEN YOU'RE STILL BUTT NAKED!"

Seeing her students together and fooling around together in the futuristic stone age, in a world with bleak hope, their smiles and their friendship still persists even after 3700 years.

And she can't ask any more than that.

"Amazing! You guys did this much!" After Taiju was fully dressed, Senku gave him a tour around the base.

"Nah, it was all the Tigress's work."

"WHAT?! Senku! You idiot! Why didn't you help sensei!"

"Hah? I woke up later than her! And even then, she got everything covered!"

"But you have to respect our sensei!"

"Shut up already! You're going all illogical again! Titles don't matter-"

"But she's still our sensei!"

"Alright boys." Senku winced when a hand slammed down on both of their hands, of course, his best friend had no issues with the amount of force. Though he did flinch in surprise by the sudden intimate touch.
