WEEK 3

[ Week 3 rolls around the corner-- with all the loss of joy after the trial. Can you keep up hope after everything that's happened? On top of that... it would seem that that whatever has effected your memories here-- it's beginning to wear away.

You're not stuck in the same place forever. Ssssort of, anyway. The stairs in the main building appear to have been uplocked and now... now you have access to a whole new floor of rooms. At least that's something!

Welcome to week three of the semester.]

No, I have not, thank you. I've always been very...who I am.

[ okay let's just.....take away....this arm..... ]

[ this is tess's secret third arm erasure ]

Born a teacher, gonna die a teacher?

There's nothing wrong with having a vision for the future, early on!

[ HUFF. ]

I had good role models to look up to, so it's only natural I'd want to follow in my parents' footsteps.

Oh my god, your parents were teachers too?

[ she sighs ]

Alright, I can't talk, I'd have like no direction in life without my grandpa. I mean I also would have grown up some kind of sassy street orphan goth child hitching rides on trains and stealing Wonderbread, so my life would be completely different, but. Details.

Mum and Da are still very respectable...

I'm sorry, what was all that?

Huh? Point is, my grandpa raised me.

[ what else did she say? ]

No, no- that whole thing about the...trains and bread!

Without my grandpa, I'd be a loner, Rebecca. A rebel.

The homeless part was the one I took the most problem with.

I mean... yeah, I'd take issue with it too. But my parents didn't want me, so that's where I'd be at.

But that's...

[ A frown. ]

...That's awful.

Yeah, it was. But I'm doing fine without them.

...I guess. It's just...parents should love their children.

Probably. I know plenty of parents who do. Just... didn't shake out that way for me, I guess.

Well...

I'm still sorry, Con- ...Uh, Tess.

...Thanks.

[ sighs. ]

Anyway, this thing looks more like a shirt now! So that's something.

Uh, right! Yes, it does, doesn't it? ...Maybe a little...too short, but...

[ we have different clothing standards ]

I'll work with it. And at least it's not a goddamn school uniform, I feel like a Suicide Girl in this thing.

Like a what?

Suicide Girls, are, uh... empowered young women on the internet who dye their hair and get tattoos and get paid handsomely to be in not very much clothing for perusal by... those interested in lady-types.

[ ........... ]

Oh. Oh... Thaaat's...nice?

[ WHAT DOES SHE SAY TO THIS, THIS ISN'T HER KINK ]

[ THIS IS NOT STRICTLY SOMETHING TESS WANTED TO EXPLAIN TO THE SCHOOLTEACHER EITHER ]

I mean I hear they get treated alright? But I dunno, I don't do a lot of sexy girl perusing.
