[Chapter 1 - 011]

Ishi and I hung out in my room for a little while longer, until a growl in my stomach interrupted me mid-sentence.

Ishi frowns.
Ishi
Tim, did you forget lunch again?
Tim laughs nervously.
Timaeus
N-no I didn’t! I got some instant ramen and… uh…
Tim has an unfortunate realization.
Timaeus
…I may have left it in the microwave…
Ishi fusses at him.
Ishi
How the fuck are you alive?! Dude! You gotta eat!
Tim grumbles.
Timaeus
I ate a poptart this morning! Well, half of one, I didn’t like the flavor, but–
Ishi yells.
Ishi
Get yer ass to the kitchen or I’m dragging you there myself!!

Unfortunately I’d made the tactical mistake of sitting next to Ishi’s good arm, and she elbowed me ferociously as she hopped off of the bed.

Tim grumbles.
Timaeus
Ow! Jeez! I’m going already!

And so I walked off to the cafeteria, with Ishi trailing close behind. Seems some other students have gathered in anticipation of an afternoon snack…

The cafeteria. Aoi and Vasundhara sit at one table, while Jurou, Tiffani, and Ping huddle near another. Nikola, Salvatore, and Siegfried stand in the kitchen.
