Episode 2: In or Out

• Sam, Penny, Antiope, and Katja are all Seniors; Yelle, Zelda, and Ostentatia are Juniors
• Sam going to hug Zelda when they notice her starting to cry and everyone else piling on :pleading: (Ostentatia holds back because she doesn't want to overwhelm her though -- equally sweet)
• "You lightning lure the principal??" "Yes!" -- I LOVE Sam Nightingale
• "Katja feels the strength of pity running through her veins"
• "Nat one? This book,, sucks. It's shitty"
• Zelda trying to give the others an out if they want it because she's worried they might feel pressured to agree even though they do have other opportunities
  • Ostentatia undermining this by saying "Oh, Zelda wants to stay here with Gorgug [instead of graduating early]" just for Sam to swing in with "I mean, he's already going all over the place without you" - Spiteful "I hope Jakey dies" Lesbianic energy to the MAX
  • Zelda's tense "Cool, Sam," in response </3
• Her anxiously eating a can because she doesn't know what else to do with herself <3
• "I like... it's really hard for me to talk to people, it's really hard for me to, like, just make a point and disagree with someone. And Sam and Ostentatia are like soo,, beautiful and people listen when they talk. And it's just like, I can feel my hands shaking when they disagree with me and it's just really hard to like,, I just feel stupid." :((
• Katja's "Someone has to want to stay" :(((
• Zelda is the other, like, frontline person but she's like 'itty-bitty short' <3
• Zelda not being 100 on how to comfort Katja and offering her one of her earbuds so they can listen to music together to calm down instead
• Ostentatia's Deranged attempts to avoid bursting into tears are so good lol
• Zelda sharing her music with Katja and Penny and "doing this thing that Zelda does where she like, can't quite maintain eye-contact but is looking to make sure you like the music she's playing" - LOVE HER!!
• "It's so awesome how angry you get. For me, it's like - I can't get there without actually grabbing my sword. And like, I wish that I had somewhere between zero and sixty to get to."
• Penny trying to get Zelda to swear louder is so funny but it's SO FUNNY how Zelda fully Mouths the word 'fucked' the second time because now she's even more flustered about it. Then just fully shouting <3
• I love how much they say 'I love you'!
• Aabria fully tossing Rekha's dice aside when it rolls badly - Hilarious
• "A heart that is dedicated to speak only for the voiceless may struggle from time to time to speak for itself. There is no great cause of justice in acknowledging that you are a creature of the forest with a hear, who may from time to time be lonely"
  • "A moment may come when you need to communicate a need for something that is of the self, and you will not be able to cloak that need in words of cause or justice. It will be the cry of an animal in pain, and you will need to be able to say that."
• Ostentatia's "I want my dad to feel like himself again" :((
• "Then Sam doesn't notice that this trading of barbs will only ruin her, because at the end of the day, Penelope delights in pain and Sam doesn't."
• ""You should know your parents are divorcing", and then I close the mirror."
• Zelda being SO careful to avoid being a source of pressure when she knows that Antiope and Penny have such a big decision to make <3
• "Antiope is a terrible texter. It's tapback reactions and wall of text" -- LOL
