sally

No one is in the halls as Claude creeps to the Library. As there were no further directions, they will have to walk around in confusion for a while before they find Sally in a secluded corner near the back. In front of her are two teas, and she'll push one towards you when she spots you.

On the table next to the cups, there are a few sheets of paper. On the top one, in purple gel pen ink, there seems to be something written.

INTERN
» You will have special power over the rest of the student body. This will allow you to create rules and obligations that the others will have to follow or face consequences.

» You may choose a rule or obligation that all of the student body will be subject to. A rule will be added to the student handbook, and if broken, the student will be given a punishment. An obligation is an effect that the students will be compelled to do. You can only choose one of the options each week.

» You may choose what day these things are applied. However, for rules, it cannot be added any later than Wednesday, or else it will roll over to the following week.

» You may also choose to give two students their own specific rule or obligation. You can give them either the same one or different ones, but you must choose between the two types.

... stuff...

[ STUFF..... ]

[shaft]

... That seems ominous?

[departea]

It's just a little complicated at the moment, and then I was brought here, so I'm not entirely sure how things will be like when I go back.

[shaft]

Complicated as in dangerous...?

[departea]

Well.

Dooooon't worry about it!

[shaft]

Annie...

That's the kind of answer that makes people worry.

[departea]

Hm... it'll work out.

You should worry about other things.

[shaft]

THat's really not happening now... But you don't have to talk about it if you don't want.

[departea]

No, there's just not much point to it.

Nier mentioned I got exorcised, didn't he? Last Sunday when you were all insulting my love life. I don't know what's going to happen after that.

[shaft]

We weren't insulting...

And oh. You can use your wish to make sure you end up okay, can't you? Would you want... to be human again?

[departea]

[ there is just a long silence from her at the question

before she just laughs, a little awkwardly. ]

What?

[shaft]

[ ... ]

Was that an insensitive question?

[departea]

It's... I mean. I've been dead for years, Claude. It's not like I can just go back to my old life. And...

[ she's just growing more and more uncomfortable as she thinks about it. ]

I don't think it would work, if I were human. With George and Mitchell. It's...

[shaft]

[ Yeah, he's picking up on that, so he doesn't press it. ]

It seems like you have everything you want anyway. There's no need to change that.

[departea]

Mmhm.

But yeah, the point is that... you can go elsewhere, probably. Have a new life.

[shaft]

... Yeah.

But I'd be letting a lot of people down.

[departea]

In that case... do what you think you need to, Claude.

No one can choose your next steps but you, so just make sure it's what you can live with.
