[It took Ike a WHOLE DAMN MONTH for him to even get remotely settled in. His roommate vanished before the two of them even got acquainted, but Ike didn't feel the need to be nosy about Marie's whereabouts. He seemed a little withdrawn anyway. It didn't bother him much since they didn't get much further than exchanging names.
Dealing with the futuristic technology of this world still had him baffled. From the architecture to the unfamiliar inventions, none of it made getting used to the academy a walk in the park. As he sat down in his quiet dorm room after classes, the memory of a run-in with the headmaster came back to him as a reminder from earlier that morning. He was supposed to introduce himself on the "school network". When he asked about it, the headmaster reminded him of that strange rectangular contraption he gave him when he first arrived.
So he'd been fiddling with it for a while now - as long as his patience would allow. It wasn't an easy task, but he got the laptop TURNED ON and LOGGED IN and all of that seemingly easy stuff to most people that just made communication like pulling teeth for someone like Ike. Why was he supposed to introduce himself on here of all places, when it just seemed so static and impersonal? He'd never met people like this before, and quite frankly, it frustrated him.
And so frustration would be the tone of his introduction.]

My name is Ike. I don't know how I got here or why, but I'm enrolled at this academy for now. If we haven't already met, you should introduce yourself to me.
I'm not sure what else to write here. it feels stiff to meet people on this network. one convenience for you people is just an obstacle for me to overcome, since I'm not familiar with computers or internets. If I were to meet someone back home, I'd just walk up and say hello. Maybe somebody could teach me something about this computer to make using it make more sense. I have a lot to learn.

[He guessed, anyway. The headmasters did sort of lecture him about not having any presence on the network, so it was easy to deduce.]
I've been attending classes and everything.

[He says this with a hint of doubt.]
I'm not here on my own will, but I'm trying to find a purpose in staying. I might as well, since it seems as though getting home will take some time for me.

Re: [action]
[He said that plainly and with a dip in his tone because he was repeating himself.]
I just woke up here. I had no say in the matter.
