Hm... Do you think so? A skill like that? [...honestly, he can't... actually think of one. not that he's ever particularly excelled at any one thing - he hasn't, not really. he's all right with housework and he can at least cook decently enough so that he doesn't give himself food poisoning. his medical skills are fine enough to treat things that aren't too complex... but these aren't things that really take a lot of thought to begin with, medicine aside. even that's just a bunch of memorization.]
I wonder what mine is. Maybe I just haven't found it yet? [learning a skill in the future and having it become something that he never forgets again wouldn't be too bad, he thinks.]
