Sept 4th: Eating is Essential

"That settles it," Will nodded, getting the wrong idea from Miriam. "If you don't mind, Sam, I'll tag along with you next time?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 3:52 am

"Not really my decision. Have you met Miss Kinney?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 3:52 am

"Not yet!"

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 3:53 am

Miriam rolls her eyes. "Really? That's what you got from this?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 3:54 am

"I like helping people. People like it when I help them. That sounds good to me, right?" he said, looking at Sam for backup.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 3:55 am

"If it's what you want to do, I don't see anything wrong with it. You'll find out if you like it soon enough."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:01 am

"Good. I'm sure it will be fun!"

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:02 am

Miriam faintly shakes her head, faintly amused by all this idealism.

"The first thing she's going to make him do is the obstacle course," she says to Miriam.

"...though he'll probably be good at that."

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:10 am

"You're just reinforcing my conviction that this is a bad idea. How did you do at the obstacle course?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:14 am

"I got part of the way through before I realized some of the platforms collapse."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:24 am

"Maybe I could stick to them as they fell...no, that;s no good, I'd fall too..."

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:24 am

"See, that just sounds like a pain in the ass."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:26 am

"It's adaptive apparently. A boy tried to swim the moat and got attacked by a robot octopus."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:28 am

"I wonder HOW adaptive it is...maybe I can outthink it..." Will said, sounding excited, his fingers drumming on the table.

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:34 am

"If I thought thinking would help with pitfalls maybe I'd be tempted to try and show people up. Unfortunately I didn't get to have telekinesis." she says, not sounding particularly sad about that.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:37 am

"The girl with telekinesis found out it's rubbish for deflecting the water jets."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:43 am

"And everyone had to complete this course?"

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:44 am

"We're still working on it. They want us to be able to pass it by the end of the week, I think?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 4:48 am

Will nodded. "Fun times. We're going to make it look easy."

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:32 am

"Is this going to be a spectator sport?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:35 am

"If watching me would make you happy, I'd be happy to let you watch me," Will grinned.

"There was this one guy at the base who loved playing Pac-Man, so I indulged him. I made a lot of quarters that way."

"You turned into an arcade machine? That's one way to earn some money, I suppose."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:46 am

"Oh, I don't have any of that with me. I should have brought some, shouldn't I? Oh well."

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:47 am

"You didn't bring any money?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:47 am

"There wasn't any room in the box."

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 2:18 pm

"What did you bring that there was no room for money?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:01 pm

"I didn't really bring anything--they shipped me my clothes and a couple other necessities, but I only had so big of a box to fit into."

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:20 pm

"Really? They literally shipped you in a box? And you didn't mind?"

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:33 pm

"Why would I mind? It was an interesting new experience."

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:38 pm

"Most people probably would have found that uncomfortable and boring."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:45 pm

"He was a couch for awhile. And an arcade machine."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:47 pm

"You can find interesting things in almost everything. It's all a matter of perspective, aye?"

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:49 pm

"Very philosophical for a couch."

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:49 pm

"Thank you!" Will smiled.

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 5:55 pm

"Maybe if he studies psychiatry he's got something going," she smirks slightly.

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 6:00 pm

Miriam groans at the bad joke and rolls her eyes overly dramatically.

by **Will Stanton** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 6:04 pm

"Ooh, that's right, I need to pick something other than shifting to study, don't I. What are you two doing?"

by **Miriam Bell** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 6:06 pm

"I'm majoring in Psychology, actually."

by **Samantha McManus** » Wed Jun 10, 2015 6:58 pm

"I haven't really decided yet. Pretty interested in history and literature."
