Hey Ive got an open question for you all: Why do you go on the super optional death missions?

Ive been on them too because...Nightfall is everyones problem and since I can do some stuff normal people cant I kind of felt like I had to? But I never signed up to be a soldier I signed up to be a student. I got all this training to be a human blender and I got this cool daemon horn sword but

I hate knowing how to kill people and I hate that I know what it feels like to be stabbed

I dunno maybe I want to see if Im just being selfish. Might delete this in the morning

[Even with that sidelong look, it was clear he was even more tired than usual. He rubbed the corners of his eyes and sighed.]

It's a conversation that could get some people in trouble. There's more than a few students who never signed up for anything, let alone the fighting.

[Honestly they both looked pretty tired.]

That seems illegal? Like war crime illegal.

[bolderfell]

Funny how often illegal things still happen, given how illegal they are.

[¯\_(ツ)_/¯]

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Well, maybe they'll happen less if we actually talk about them.

[bolderfell]

[Sigh.]

It isn't your problem.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

I'm on the student council. You're a student. It literally is my job.

[bolderfell]

What, do you get paid? No it isn't. Just drop it, I only said anything so you could have some perspective.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Fine whatever. But I have the option to not do this shit anymore so I'm taking it.

[bolderfell]

Well. Good. There you go.

That's the smart thing to do.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

Yeah. It's really the only choice that makes sense.

[bolderfell]

...Gonna go home, then, or stay here? I mean, the missions have a way sometimes of following people back to campus.

[infestedcouncilpresident]

I'll stay. All the weirdness aside it's a really good school that'll look great on my record.

Wow. All right. Guess a good education really is a matter of life and death for some people.
