Fifth floor common room, Saturday afternoon/evening

After yesterday's class on propaganda, a light had gone on for Jalian. This was how one person could change more than just their surroundings. She'd largely ignored movies and TV before, but now she was curious.

So, she was sitting in the common room, watching TV. She had a bowl of popcorn and was frowning at the screen trying to pick out which parts were stupid and which might be some form of propaganda.

So far the judgment had mainly come down on "both". For just about everything.

Jalian grimaced. "I'm not good at being not-practical. I don't know if it's better. I was raised to be a Huntress and warrior."

"Well," Ringo smiled down at her tea awkwardly, "I bet you've never had your heart broken, at least?"

Jalian turned her flinch into a stony look. "I have."

She nearly left it at that, but as reticent as she was, she also wanted to be fair, and it was very unfair to Ringo not to say more.

"My friend. He was going to leave me. To be a coward and abandon ken Selvren. He was the only one I thought could understand me, but he didn't."

"Oh." Ringo's voice was suddenly very, very soft. "I'm sorry. I, um, feel like a pretty big idiot for saying that now."

Jalian waved it off. "I don't forgive him, but you didn't know."

"But it was dumb of me to assume." Ringo's smile was awkward and apologetic as she turned it on Jalian. "I'm sorry that happened to you, though. It sounds terrible."

[ooc: I was totally going to ask you the same thing on my next tag, so sounds good to me!]

"It was the worst," Jalian answered. "But now I am here."

Working to make sure they never met. That was a healthy coping mechanism, right?

"Yeah. It's not a very good feeling. And it sounds like your experience was worse than mine."

[ooc: Sorry I disappeared for a couple of days there!]
