I don't know.

It is tempting to think it is only for someone's twisted entertainment, but I don't want to believe there are beings with motivations so shallow.

[ who would dooooooooo this to these sweet innocent souls!!!! *stares directly into britt's eyes* ]

That said, I cannot fathom what it is they get from this other than that. With how much this place is clearly capable of already, what more could they want for?

... Maybe. That isn't a bad way to think of it.

[ it cheers her up, somewhat, at least. ]

I hope that isn't something you have to deal with often? Before this place, I mean.

... I'm sorry, you don't have to answer that if you don't wish to.

Mm. Everyone is allowed to keep secrets.

I do wish, though, that we could each choose what these secrets must be for ourselves.

... I think that a secret between two is still a secret.

It does not have to be me, but I hope that you are able to share yours with someone, here.

Any thanks feel particularly undeserved, today.

All of us are here for each other.

Talking to you is a comfort to myself, as well.

Thank you.

I don't know.

[ lux does not want to think about the idea of this being a 'last man standing' situation. ]

Until we 'graduate,' perhaps?

[ ohhhhhh i hate you!!!!! i hate you!!!!!!! ]

With our classes hardly lasting a week... I suspect it won't be a proper year. This place freezes our homes in time, there is no reason to believe time here behaves as normal.

[ which she doesn't necessarily believe, but... if it might bring lila some comfort. ]

Right.

We might be able to finish all the courses they have for us to take sooner than we expected. And then - return home.
