Elizabeth is lying, curled up on her bed with a stuffed bear.

A small, neatly wrapped box is sitting on the bedside table.

She's trying to read; the same book she's been reading ever since she was in the library after Speech class.

Her mind keeps flashing back to the trip she made to Mali and the Ivory Coast. She can hardly believe how young and naive she had been. How back then she thought that she could help change the world.

She seems to reread the same paragraph over and over again

"A tumble? Oh, yes - out of the swing," said Katy, as it all came slowly back to her. "Did the rope break, Aunt Izzie? I can't remember about it."


She always reached for books from her childhood whenever she felt down.

Oh right. *leans back against the board* I talked to Lisa and she didn't mind if I pull out of the assignment.

*smiles tightly* I guess that means you'll be writing a paper as well then, exposing your inner self to the teacher so she doesn't "push you past your boundaries" in the future.

*hints of sarcasm are obvious*

*groans and rolls his eyes* I'm thinking of just dropping the class. I'm busy enough as it is.

*small smile* Well, we might be able to manage that. I don't know.

*tilts her head and looks at him* What sort of stupid?

'Did you fall on your head or something' stupid? *grimaces*

Alright, and you know that someone is going to hit the roof if you tell them but they're going to find out anyway so you really should tell them, but you can't bring yourself to do it because they already hit the roof once today and it seems like too much... *breaths* I'm screwed.

*she looks at him*

Cam, I think we need to stop talking hypothetically, and you need to give me some details here. You know I won't tell anyone what you said.

*groans* Vala's going to kill me.

I don't know if I'm her TA, but she made me apply and would she make me do that if she doesn't want me to be? *looks desperate*

*nods* Oh yeah. You're dead, buster.

*looks skeptical*

How many lunatics do you think would apply to be her TA?

Just me? *groans and slides down the bed, hitting his forehead repeatedly on her feet*

Hey!

*pulls up her feet and tucks them underneath her*

You need to tell Vala what you've done, you know

OOC: Actually, several. Including Vala in an erotomania-induced fit. Just so you know.

[ooc: Actually, I figured there'd be a few. Liz is more like "wtf? why</i??" though *g*]
