Second Floor Common Room, Saturday Morning
Saturday, August 22nd, 2009 02:19 pmIt wasn't often that Ender chose to leave the solitude of his room or the relative silence of the roof for potentially busier waters, but he'd been trying to make a good show of seeming to be more social over the past few months. A trip to the common room was warranted.
After some consideration, he finally came down from the roof - where he'd spent some time on some fascinating research just brought in from the colonies via ansible - and took a seat in the common room, flipping channels on TV until he hit a particularly senseless reality TV show. He upped the volume to a very audible level.
It wasn't that he was actually watching (or if he was, it'd fall more into the category of observing); he was more interested in seeing if the noise would draw anyone in, or if the very nature of reality shows would keep people far, far away.
