Study Hall -- Thursday, October 6th

[principalconnor.livejournal.com]

Sarah doesn't bother announcing the study hall or the announcements. She is leaning back in her desk chair, chain-smoking cigarettes while she nurses a cup of hot black coffee and occasionally rocks back and forth in the chair. She's wearing dark sunglasses and her hair is a mess. Every once in a while, she stops moving, and it's entirely possible she's napping.

There's a large bowl of marbles on the desk in front of her. If anybody pisses her off or annoys her, she may or may not peg a marble at their head, depending on whether or not she gives enough of a shit.

Angela looks up from her notebook and waves to Rory. "Hey. So are you still going to Angelus' thing tonight? I can't decide."

"Absolutely. I mean - I don't trust him, really," she amends, "but I figure that A," she says, ticking them off on her fingers, "there're a ton of witnesses. B, Bristow approved it, and he strikes me as a guy who wouldn't let a scary vampire kill a bunch of people, because it'd look bad for him. And C, Logan seems to be okay with it, and I trust him. If he thought there was any chance that this could go wrong, he wouldn't host it," she concludes with a shrug.

Angela rolls her eyes. "I think with Bristow, it might depend on *which* bunch of people," she says. "But you're probably right. I can just hide behind you, Marty and Logan and avoid eye contact with anyone else."

Rory grins. "Hey, worst comes to worst, I know the layout of the place well enough to know a few places we could hide if needs be."

Chloe smiles as she spots Rory a few spots away. "Rory!" she calls, heading over to her. "Okay, I am in desperate need of really quick help with my Criminology homework. Could you take a second and rate these six things from worst to least?"

Rory smiles, and reads the assignment. She quickly writes on a piece of paper:

1. A poor man who kills a rich man for a small sum of money to provide more for his family (perceived necessity)
2. A man who kills another man because that man hurt a member of his family (retribution)
3. A rich man who kills another rich man for a large sum of money to provide more for his family (greed)
4. A man who kills another man because he catches that man in bed with his wife (rage)
5. A man who kills another man because they are from different sociological groups (prejudice)
6. A man who kills another man for the enjoyment of killing (thrill)

"That work?"

"That's perfect!" Chloe grins and gives Rory a hug. "Thank you."

"No worries," she says, returning the hug and smiling.
