[ LOCKED from Satsuki, Nonon, Gamagori, and Kazuya ]

[ Okay, Ryuko doesn't look very happy. Actually, she looks pretty irritated. Watch out folks! ]

All right, I usually don't ask other people for advice. [ Ever. ] But I've got a problem, figured maybe somebody could help me out.

See, I've got a relative here. 'Cept she doesn't remember that we're related. Said she wants "proof." How the hell am I supposed to do that?

Yeah, the whole thing's messed up.

[ She sighs. Long and drawn-out. She settles back a bit before continuing. ]

While I've got you all here, somebody clear something else up for me. I heard about some mandatory, evil school being started up by the guys running Nova City. [ She's figured out that the "crazy girl" part of the duo in charge is Satsuki, which is honestly the only reason she's interested. ] Does anybody have any more information about that?

[ She's about to switch it off, but then adds in, completely as an afterthought- ] Oh, and thanks.

If they make it mandatory... [ he narrows his eyes, his lips curling into a sneer from their previous frown. the prince snorts. ] Mandatory or not, I am not going back to school.

...You know, we usually do have to go to school. [ He looks about her age, anyway.

But jeez, even as much of a delinquent as she is, even she still went to school. ]

I went to school! For a while. After that, I had private tutors and instructors that were available at my convenience.

[ oh, he's a teenage delinquent alright. in his own conflicted, rebellious, traitorous way. ]

Ooo, fancy. [ She doesn't actually sound impressed. It's sarcasm. ] Well, us common folk have to go to public schools. Not much use in fighting that.

What I'm interested in is why people're calling this school "evil," and what makes it so special.

I didn't say my education was any better than yours. [ he pulls a face. ] You got to go to school with other kids for longer than just a few years. A "fancy" education doesn't usually involve friends. Just your sister and her companions.

[ zuko very nearly groans at the memory of being surrounded by girls in his youth, as there weren't any boys his age at court for him to play with. just girls who liked to throw rocks at turtleducks, do cartwheels, and tease him relentlessly. ]

Probably nothing. Unless someone really is out to set up a school that teaches people to be bad. [ which is... possible, given the circumstances, but he's trying not to be gloomy. it's not a good look on him in spite of being one of the more common ones. ]

[ Well, Ryuko has a little idea of how evil a school can be. She attended Honnouji Academy, which her sister founded, after all. Although there's no reason for a place like that here. ]

Yeeeah. Hopefully nothing. But people sure seem to be getting worked up over nothing, then.

We've been kidnapped. They're probably more worked up over the possibility of being forced into something else on top of being unable to return to their homes.

Tch. It's just school no matter how you cut it.

Besides, not like we're doing anything else with our time here.

[ Ryuko, if it wasn't your sister in on this, you'd be up in arms too. Jeez. ]

You could be trying to get out. That's what I'm doing.

[ zuzu, you've been here for less than twenty-four hours. sit down. chill. you're making zero progress and are going to continue to make zero progress. ]
