simulsimul: (in my heart there is a trace)

[Kratos was vaguely aware the others were commenting on his suggestions, but until Genis speaks directly to him he hadn't realised they were all paying such attention. He doesn't answer for a moment in lieu of blinking at Genis, searching for the words to answer. He does glance toward Raine in case he's disrupting the lesson, but Raine's nod indicates she's okay with him continuing.]

Yes. I'd rather the association be to someone Lloyd likes.

[Colette beams.]

My father is pretty amazing.

[In a roundabout way, this hurts -- now that the thought has occurred for Kratos to wonder where Colette places since the last Chosen he'd known. Best to get back to it, or else he might stall. Luckily, either Lloyd realises that -- or he's just eager to get on with things, now he seems to vaguely understand them.]

Okay! So if the fox is Frank, and the jump is Frank's decisions, what about the rest of these things down here?

[Kratos hands him the chalk and points to 'object'.]

The object is another person. If the subject is the one who makes decisions which affect the whole village, then the object is the people who are most directly affected by it, like patients, or children -- or even immaterial items. Sometimes they aren't immediately apparent -- that is, a sentence may not always have an object -- but when they are, they are always the target of the action. In this case, that would be?

The dog!

[Grinning, Lloyd attaches the two with a line.]
