Well then, she will indeed be dragged with.

Woo.


She wonders if the scream has anything to do with the creepy librarian who was acting super weird.

She bets it does.

"That is not for you to determine, young lady! Now shoo, you two, this area is off-limits," Principal Flutie says from the library, and waves Sadde and Willow out of the it, going with them. He grabs his mobile phone and dials something. "Everyone, please stay clear of the area, there's nothing to see here, nothing to see. Yes, hello? Yes, there's a body here—no, he's probably dead—well I suppose he might - Sunnydale High, the library—okay thank you." The pockets his phone and continues. "Nothing to see!"

Eva raises her eyebrow, looking a little bit disgusted. Not just at the fact that there's a dead body, but also at the way the principal is handling it. This is almost like a scene from a comedy film or something.

Dead bodies are not from comedy films.

He can be added to the list. She wonders how long he'll last.


"Anyway!" she says to her friends, quite cheerfully. "Nothing to see here, as the principal said – why don't we go back to lunch?"

Permalink

"Nothing to see? There's a body! Who is it?" Verity cranes her neck, trying and failing to see more.

But then Principal Flutie says, "And now you should all return to your lunch, because you need to eat to be quite full of energy for the afternoon classes which will be happening normally. On you go."

Sadde shoots Theo a meaningful look, then returns with the other students to the cafeteria.

"And if there is a body, it's prrrobably not the best idea to start gossipping about it," she says, still smiling.

Back to the cafeteria they go.

Permalink

"How not? I wonder who it is..."

"It's obviously the librarian, who else would be in a library?"

"The queer kid goes there a lot."

"Yeah but she was alive and well there with Principal Flutie."

Permalink

"She indeed was alive, yes, and so it's possible that the body – about which I do not think we should gossip – was of the librarian."

She seems to be talking a little weirdly. That's curious.

Permalink

"Hey Eva, what's up with you today?" Brittany asks. "You've been weird all day."

Permalink

"I haven't been getting much sleep," she says, trying not to grimace.

Also, she has been plotting. Not all day, of course, but since the start of lunch, sure.

Permalink

"Oh. Why not?"

Permalink

"I'm not sure. Weird nightmares."

Permalink

"Oh. Um. Have you tried exercising?" she asks, looking a bit lost.

Permalink

"I usually jog in the evenings, yeah? But it doesn't seem to be helping."

She actually does usually jog in the evenings, but the past couple of days she's been a bit too tired to want to do that.

"Don't worry, though – if it keeps up, I'll just go see a doctor or something."

Permalink

"Okay."

There is an awkward silence as her friends don't really know what to say, between a dead body and Eva being sad.

...it lasts about 3.97 seconds, and then they start gossiping about the body, about who could kill the librarian, about surely it was a heart attack, about no if it was that girl wouldn't be that upset would she, it was love revenge!

Permalink

Euhh. Eva doesn't really have anything to contribute to this, sorry girls.

Permalink

That's okay, they can carry a conversation without her, they understand.

Permalink

She'll probably contribute if they change subjects, but otherwise she supposes she'll be quiet for a lot of the rest of lunch.

She might squint at Brad a few more times, though. Discreetly.

Permalink

Lunch lasts long enough that eventually Eva's friends get tired of talking about the corpse and change subjects.

Permalink

And she does indeed contribute.

Permalink

And then lunch ends.

Permalink

Eva has geography. So off to geography she goes.

Permalink

No one else dies during class.

Permalink

That's wonderful.

Does anybody turn into a puddle or something? Or does that count as dying during class? Maybe someone loses all their memories, or a couple of limbs instead?

Nothing bad other than utter and complete boredom happens, actually.
