[ What do you do after all that?

Well, you mourn. After...an hour or so, a note goes out, under everyone's doors- everyone's. ]

If you also don't want to be alone after the day we've had, come to the second floor of the dormitories. Food and drink will be provided. Alcohol will be confiscated immediately.

[ You'll find Rebecca's set up the common area with food, that she seems to keep supplying, every so often. It's kind of strange, though, she seems like the sort of person to harp on eating well? She definitely has, for some of you. Yet, the food seems a strange split. On one side, there's all kinds of fruits and vegetables and breads. Legumes, made maybe not the best, but it's still an effort. Vegetable soups, no meat in sight. Simple seafood. If you're familiar with Greek culture? Yeah. It looks a lot like something they'd describe in...a history book.

On the other side? God, it's all burgers and pizzas and...pineapples? Pineapple juice? What the heck, Rebecca? In any case, there's enough food to keep everyone fed, and it seems...Tess, oddly enough, keeps bringing batches of burgers from the kitchen?! What a team-up.

The Starbucks is open too, where it's a bit...quieter? Some tea and coffee set up, there.

For those who just want to cry, in peace. ]

Drive the Administration to despair you mean?

[ That sounded laughable to him, though he wished it didn't.

But losing other people...he wanted to hope they wouldn't either. But, reality was more cruel--they still had time to go even though "midterms" happened. ]

We can't, but... everytime one of these "exams" happen, it doesn't feel like we can stop it until it's too late. [ ... ] We can only continue to be there for everyone we, it's just, there's only so much we can do with how everyone's taking this. In the end, I think we both know we're going to all need to somehow keep pushing forward. It's now a question of how much we'll lose before we'll get there.

[ And if, ultimately, they'll actually succeed. Not that he'll say as much, but the days of Terra not looking at this solemnly have come to an end. ]

It'd be nice, for once. Although ... a few of their more vicious motives have bounced back on them.

[ Hmm. ]

Short of locking everyone in the same room on a Thursday and having people take shifts to make sure no one leaves... I don't know how we can stop it.

Yeah, it would. [ And then he just blurts out: ] Give them a little taste of their own medicine.

[ The bitterness is real. But no, he's thinking now...hmm. ]

...I guess we could just tape up everyone else's rooms on the outside until morning, and then tape up our own from the inside.

[ .... ]

That sounds too ridiculous, doesn't it?

[ Bitter brigade. ]

People who hide up in their towers and look down on the damage they cause like it's nothing to do with them deserve a little taste of their own medicine.

...

I'm pretty sure we could just pull the tape off our rooms, though.

[ They do, and Terra is sure part of himself would not just find it fitting for them to experience the same. ]

... Yeah, we could.

[ ... ]

Do you think asking Han to do it would work?
