If you haven't yet, be sure to check out the latest issue of the school newspaper. It features an interview with our very own Ms. Cassandra Voss, and Liam and Zinnia did a great job with it.

[OOC: The interview features info from both of those links. Yesss, even Question #1.]

[Squad 4]

Let's get some extra training in tomorrow and this weekend. The latest dungeon sounds like a doozy, and we should try to be as prepared as possible.

I'm [...] not sure how to train for booby traps, but we should run through some scenarios on what to do if we're randomly split up. [...] Also, if we meet a locked door that requires a secret before it lets us pass. [...] In addition to all the normal risks involved with Exploration.

[unironickylorenfan]

Thank you. I'd like to eventually try to get the names of the other persona users they worked with. Maybe reach out to them, as well. But [...] after break.

You all be careful. It's like Indiana Jones Goes to Hell in there.

Liam

[upperhandsen]

How easy do you think it is to go back to normal shit?

Liam/Kodi

[unironickylorenfan]

Oof. That's the million dollar question. I can't wait to go home, but what if it's weird?

Liam/Kodi

[upperhandsen]

Oh, it's going to be the weirdest shit. But there's persona users who don't work at Finchwood, right? [...] I don't think I can be an accountant with Haiyael breathing down my neck. [...] They'd probably sabotage my job.

Are you going home for the break?

Liam/Kodi

[unironickylorenfan]

Voss said that there were others. She didn't give names, but from our interview, it sounds like they've all figured out how to do the adult thing just fine? But, maybe underwater welding and private security are going to be more appropriate career options for the likes of us after this.

Oh, hell yes. I cannot wait. My parents [...] My mom's pregnant. Like, twenty-ish weeks along? I want to be there, even if it's weird.
You're going, too, right?

Liam/Kodi

[upperhandsen]

[...] What about regular-ass teacher?

THAT'S FUCKING AWESOME It's not weird? I was there for all of my siblings it's
Do you need booties? My dad's not We have so many but not the ones my Like
[...] when your mom bites it, people learn how to knit just so they can knit you baby shit [...] or crochet, idk the difference. But we have fucking boxes of the stuff and some of it is godawful nightmare bullshit.

And fucking yes I am. Everyone else's already made my itinerary and there's two solid hours of selfies a day so we're going to look good as fuck.

Liam/Kodi

[unironickylorenfan]

Live combat experience does seem like it'd come in handy for high school English.

God I would love to gift my new baby sibling with some godawful nightmare bullshit. I'd appreciate it a lot? I can swing by while we're home. I'll bring by some baked goods as an offering.

Nice. Are your siblings going to be all over you or is Mia finally getting Too Cool for Old Kids?

Liam/Kodi

[upperhandsen]

Fuck English to Boston and back. I'm never taking that bullshit again.

We're gonna find the worst shit possible. I remember green and pink frills and they didn't even have the decency to include whatever drugs they were taking.

All of them; she's too cool for younger kids now. Half of the schedule's her doing because apparently she's trying to get the whole house in on a chore wheel. I've never been so proud but I hear Hol's staging a mutiny, so maybe I'll get Peter Pan a few weeks early. [...] How's your dad, between everything?

Liam/Kodi

[unironickylorenfan]

I want to see you teaching Physics to college kids and reaping the ones who don't show up enough with your scythe.

Oh that's a very ambitious color choice. Pink for power. Green for communing with nature.

Please contact me in the event of a riot. I will bring popcorn. [...] He's way better than he has been if the amount he's been dunking on me lately is any indication. Apparently he's finally found someone to take him on for consulting? That's a big help.

[empereurs]

I'd be curious about that too. They were all students at their school, right? It's interesting that we don't have more Haling Cove residents attending Finchwood.

Noted. Hopefully it's like any other normal exploration, and we can take it slow.

[unironickylorenfan]

Yeah. Multiple. And now just the one local? It's [...] interesting.

Nothing really hurried us along, but things blocked our path back out. Also, I wouldn't put it past this place to throw in a good old fashioned giant, perfectly spherical boulder to run away from.

[dallaslevy]

[empereurs]

If Mr. Gladstone hadn't found all of us, the town would be in trouble. Or maybe the fact that he brought us here is what prevented more locals from manifesting a Persona?

Is this because I saw Temple of Doom recently? Maybe the Shadow World would become safer if we all stopped watching Netflix.

[unironickylorenfan]

Hm. That's an interesting theory. That it's as much this place as it is us causing Personas?

We can't even collectively binge something innocuous. We've all seen Ghostbusters. You know how that goes.

[coalblooded]

I never thought I liked running, but I kind of want to be Indiana Jones?

[unironickylorenfan]

It's way more intense than Mr. Ford makes it looks.

[coalblooded]

That's saying a lot.
