The Principal's Office

[tailor_made]

The door to the principal’s office is open at all hours, although you will only find Hester at the receptionist’s desk from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. This is primarily where you can have private conversations with her. Though there’s an actual office in the back, it is always closed and locked.

[ well! that was upsetting as usual! at this point, eurydice has come to expect all that, but there's one bit from that song that didn't add up.

knock knock! ]

Hey. Can I ask you about that song?

[ hester may notice that eurydice is actually trying to be polite. that's new. ]

this is a hell of my own making

[Hester's office is dark when Eurydice comes in. The assistant director herself has her head resting on her arms when Eurydice comes in and she lifts her head slowly, blinking a few times before she can fully process another presence in her office.]

-oh, Eurydice. [She yawns and forces herself to sit up properly.] Sure, of course. What did you want to know?

:)

[ Oh, no, was Hester...napping? ]

Sorry to wake you. I can come back later, but I was just wondering -- who's Floral?

[ Eurydice has checked the Yearbook and she's definitely not there, so what gives? ]

[tailor_made]

Floral...? [She furrows her brow, like the wires aren't quite connecting in her head.] Oh! With the bones. [She rubs one eye, covering her mouth with the back of her hand to hide another yawn before continuing.]

I don't know who she is, exactly. The Wizard knows about her, I think, but he doesn't always clarify those little things with me. All I know is that she has a pretty name and I think she's afraid of bones.

[howtheworldwas]

Oh. Well. Thanks anyway? That's a dumb thing to be afraid of, though.

[tailor_made]

Right? It's really silly and feels some kind of inside joke. Weird.

[howtheworldwas]

[ SQUINTS..... ]

...Do you think the Wizard's making a joke? Does he even do that??

[tailor_made]

...Not usually? I get the feeling he used to but he's so serious most of the time.
