Second Floor Common Room, Tuesday Afternoon

[endsthegame]

Generally speaking, Ender never did find anything worth watching on television. Reality programming interested him about as much as scrap metal, and the less said about sitcoms, the better. Occasionally, though, the TV surprised him - such as right now.

They were running a documentary on the possibility of life on other planets. An in-depth one, and though it had a few factual errors, it involved a lot of interesting speculation on extraterrestrial intelligence.

Maybe if they'd spent more time thinking about this in the 21st century, what had happened in Ender's time might never have occurred at all - which was reason enough for him to make himself a mug of cocoa and sit down on the couch, watching and looking terribly thoughtful about it all.

Around the Dorms, Tuesday Night

[life_inshadow]

Tara had been unsettled since she got Kennedy's text the night before. She was sure everything would be fine, it was just ... she was in Sunnydale. Tara was going to be on edge until she got word everything was okay.

To get her mind off it, she started poking around online for excuses to get off the island for
a while. One option called to her.

She made a couple phone calls, figuring other people might feel the same way, and found out setting up a shuttle to get a group to the Faire site was surprisingly easy. One part of the project lead to another, and before bedtime, she was putting posters up all over the dorms.
