Sirin hands in her homework the morningafter it's set; it's twice as long as it needs to be, every sourcecited in full, footnotes and margin notes expand on every aspect, thepages are bookbound, extra credit and extra extra credit assignmentscomplete, she's added her own further study to the end, and she'sgiven the lecturer an apple for bonus points. Roc's work is similarlyimpressive, but without any of the sycophancy- it stands on its ownmerits. Tor and pru both work hard, and their efforts show. Silas andDaisy work hard too but their attainment isn't quite as high as thegirls'. Agatha is very good at what she does, but she's arrogant andwon't listen if she's being corrected on something she 'knows' isright. Priisy thinks she's a far better student than she actually is,but no one corrects her on this. Si tries hard but he doesn't reallyget it and is too easily distracted, he'd rather be out having fun.Aya would be a golden student... if she didn't skip 50% of herclasses because she doesn't want to do that subject. Merryn strugglesa lot, but she's got the guts to power through. Jade, Keede and Rudyare too lazy and lackadaisical to worry about their studies, but theyall somehow manage to pull through anyway. I feel bad for having thethieves guild at the bottom again, but what can I say- Alice thwartsevery attempt to keep her in classes, Eli's too busy selling theother students their own stationery back to them, and Lady's runninga crime ring with the answers to every test up for sale.

1 Sexuality?Man I don’t even know man, I like girls2 If you could meet anyone on this earth, who would it be? I don’t know how we’d communicate, but I’d like to meet ZUN just to say thank you. Maybe I could give him a beer and that’d say everything that needed saing.3 Grab the book nearest to you, turn to page 23, give me line 17. "Dying first, anyway; I suppose they will all go in the end."7 What’s your strangest talent? I have cooked rice twice in my life and both times, without measuring at all, it turned out PERFECT.11 Do you have any strange phobias? I don’t know if it’s really a phobia, but I have an intense aversion to children singing. I don’t mean “haha I’m a grumpy old man damn you kids” way, I can’t handle the sound of it. Ssshhhrrrr.17 What was the last lie you told? "I don’t mind which burger I have"24 Do you have a collection of anything? Dragons!27 What’s a sound you hate; sound you love? Haha well we’ve covered the former. Sound I love is the noise one particular bus in our town makes when it shifts gears because it sounds like a high-pitched old man going PHEEEHHH29 Do you believe in ghosts? How about aliens? Aliens yes, maybe not the little green man in his little green spaceship but the odds of there being no other inhabited planet are astronomically small. They might not be life as we now it, it might be a cloud of sentient gas, or a single thought, or a planet-sized rock-like plant. Ghosts, I don’t ncessarily believe in, but it’s possible. We have parrots who fool listeners by mimicing the sound of others. Maybe there is a type of creature that can mimic the presentation of others too? And they always present the same way because that’s the way that works to scare people off. 35 To you, what is the meaning of life? Enjoy it as best as you can, and do your best to help others do the same.37 Do you believe in luck? There’s definitely probability, and there’s definitely being in the right place at the right time. But a cosmic force skewing those odds arbitrarily? I dunno, I’ll roll a perception check.45 What’s the worst injury you’ve ever had? One time in school I somehow managed to completely miss every step in the stairwell and landed on my arms, bending the hands of both back and badly stretching the thingies in both arms. Hurt like hell.48 What’s your sexual orientation? It hasn’t changed since question one, jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeez!49 Ever had a rumor spread about you? A girl told my best friend I had said some really quite horrendous racist stuff that I won’t repeat here, and she was pretty so he believed her. Nice!62 What’s your favorite animal? I nearly just spilt my cup of tea all over Tamu, so I owe her this one.76 In your opinion, what makes a great relationship? Nah, there’s no catch-all. It just has to work.79 What is the single best decision you have made in your life so far? "shootthecore is raving about this touhouyouyoumu game, guess I’ll try it"90 One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by MUMMIES. The mummies aren’t really doing anything, they’re just standing around your bed. What do you do? Fall back asleep before I can react because I have zero self-control92 You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again? Pick any normal half-hour from nbnercon. Not one of the trips or events we went on, just a day we were all chilling in the hotel together. Or Yoshimatsu.
