Is This Where You Wanna Be? Crawling On Your Hands and Knees?

[In a perfect world, Maya would have been able to isolate herself for the rest of the evening. It's not like her to wallow in her feelings, but it's also not like her to be trapped away in a murder school or part of an execution so... not like she has much choice there. Besides, between the influence of Janis, and the sight of her remaining dormmates, it's clear that Maya simply can't... let things go.

It's like she told the SQUIP. They look to her for hope. And so, hope she must be. It's her job to stand tall for the others. Thankfully help comes easier this time -- there's no need to scruff Discord, or try to keep Spongebob from making Hate Patties. Maybe that, in and of itself, is a good sign.

It's just another fluke. They'll be okay. They're together, after all. Even Salieri and Discord are getting along well enough to help.

Cutting potatoes proves to be an interesting task, considering the fact that most of the knives are missing. Maya has a few guesses as to how that happened, but she won't point fingers again today. She makes do with what she has -- two swords between her and Cassandra.

Potatoes, cakes, pies -- the arrangement is much the same. There's even cocoa (made by less experienced hands, unfortunately), and alcohol. It all feels like a repeat of last week, but she's trying to not think about it. She does her best to keep a smile on her face as she knocks on each door, inviting others to the cafeteria once more.]

[Truth be told, Benjamin is a little surprised at his dorm-mate's approach. He gives him a sad smile, nonetheless, and a grateful nod as he takes the offered cup of tea.]

Is this kindness not to be mentioned tomorrow, or have you started to come around to the idea of camaraderie?

Oh, I would gladly like everyone to forget this happened, but as this now marks twice in a row I've helped, I think that ship has sailed.

[He doesn't have enough cheer to laugh, but he does give a snort, shaking his head in amusement.]

Too bad for you.

Are you alright? That throw looked like it might have hurt.

It just caught me a little off guard. I've more than walked it off, already.

Well, laughed it off, mostly.
