[ Akashi, the font of knowledge that he is, sadly is not learned in the nuances of English slang. And even worse, his attempt to very quickly phone Google "read-eet" quickly indicates to him that something has been lost in translation. And to be fair, there is a certain string of logic in this process of thoughts here. It's just not logic Akashi agrees with or finds reasonable. ]
I'm... not necessarily opposed to you wanting to improve your basketball skills, but don't you think you should concentrate on not getting kicked off of the team due to subpar academic performance first?
[ There's a pause, and then the distinct sound of Akashi (1) sighing, and (2) giving up on life for a split second. And then he recovers because god, he can't give up on life and have the reason be Aomine Daiki mystifies me.
There's a saying about carrots and sticks. Maybe he just needs to offer the metaphorical carrot to go with the stick of "don't get thrown off the basketball team, you idiot". ]
I'll make you a deal. Fix your grades, and I'll help you out with your test.
