Week 2: Monday

[ercnerd]

[Sieghart limps over to the gardens after a hearty breakfast. It's good, if somewhat cursed, exercise.]

Oh, I didn't expect to see you here.

[Then where, you ask? Who knows? Perhaps he didn't expect to see him at all.]

[battling]

Were ya expectin' me at all?

[He's sitting next to some of the flowers, don't worry about it.

Also his rifle is here.]

[ercnerd]

Can't say I was.

[And his sword is with him.]

Are you actually someone who enjoys flowers?

[battling]

Ain't my thing, but I'm surprised they got them here.

[ercnerd]

I'm more surprised by the orchards down there. But it's nice to have a different view from the rest of the campus.

[battling]

Ain't it winter? It's all surprisin' it's doin' well now.

[ercnerd]

Things that should be aren't very surprising here . . .

[battling]

And they say magic doesn't exist.

[ercnerd]

Are they still saying that?

[battling]

Fall's Dorm Head is still skeptical. What's yours sayin'?

[ercnerd]

I haven't asked.

Well, it doesn't matter what they think. Magic or not, something's at play here.

[battling]

Heard anythin' about it besides those profiles and map?

[ercnerd]

Has anyone told you about the script?

[battling]

... The what?

[ercnerd]

Supposedly, we're acting out the premise of a canceled show. You may be hearing about the details in your dorm soon.

[battling]

It was canceled? Then what're we doin' here?

[ercnerd]

Who knows? Maybe someone's taken the matter into their own hands.

[battling]

Any guesses on who just yet?

[ercnerd]

Nah. But there's apparently someone who goes by the Gossip Squirrel.

[battling]

Who's doin' this namin'?

[ercnerd]

Beats me. Maybe that squirrel's the one in charge.

[battling]

That mean we need t' be good to squirrels or suffer their wrath?

[ercnerd]

Those squirrels are capricious. It doesn't take much to upset them.

[battling]

Doesn't take much before they join ya either.

[ercnerd]

Is that what happened to you?
