You caught that? Wow, you're just as sharp as they said, Professor!

[strangesniper]

[GOD FINE I'LL LET IT GO FOR NOW]

[fieldsofview]

[fieldsofview]

[getting it To Go]

[strangesniper]

—We're not staying here?

[fieldsofview]

Huh? We can if you want. Figured you'd prefer a place quieter, though.
