Dresden Academy

Rating: SFW


The air in the divination room had always been a bit stifling. Criss didn't rely on incense for her work, but she liked the scent of it, the heavy feel in the air. It set her mind to the import of her abilities and seemed to keep the students focused.

This afternoon it was surprisingly devoid of such scent. The old woman had opened a window overlooking campus, her dark colored curtains whispered back and forth under the guidance of a light breeze. These wonderful temperatures might hold out a few more days, at least until the weekend. With the students locked in their dorms, miserable moods abounded; this was Mother Criss' simple way of saying she understood. They needed the fresh air.

( Kiefer Hulett found it disturbing more than surprising, perhaps a sign of the times.  )

Who: All the cheerleaders except Carly
What: A decision is made about the leadership struggle
Where: Cinna's dorm
When: Evening of March 23rd, when the Spring Fling Dance should have been happening
Rating: Language and adult themes

What should have been the Spring Fling instead became a quiet night in for most of Dresden Academy. With the revocation of freedoms and the imposition of forced curfews the campus had become depressing and quiet of late.

( None were quite so affected as poor Cinnamynn Thompson. )
