The nicest thing about graduation, Bea thinks, is that in the brief window after breakfast and before the flames burn through, most of the mals are migrating down to the graduation hall. So it's possible to let one's guard down slightly more than usual and not feel too bad about it. And if you go two to a room instead of separately to wait for the cleansing to finish... it's not like curfew's being enforced.

"...We've been saving up mana, yes. But that's also how we know it isn't trivial."

"Think this argument would be a lot easier to have if we know how long we'll even have. Like, if this'll buy us two years is a really different story than if this'll buy us fifty or more."

"Not sure how we'd go about estimating that... Unlikely the population statistics are there in a meaningful way."

"Won't know unless we ask!" says Dani, in the tone of voice of someone who almost always finds what she's looking for after only a brief time spent searching.
