Avenger Assembled Posted June 20, 2009 Author Posted June 20, 2009 Wander and Archer made their way up out of the Doom Room into the bright light of a summer afternoon, yet another shift in perspective in a day that had been full of them. Archer reminded Erin about her meeting with him tomorrow before he started to let her go, leaving her out on the green and grassy quad surrounded by happy, cheerful students. "Erin?" He turned and looked back at her. "For the record, no one's ever stayed on their feet that long. You did well."
Electra Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 "Thanks," Erin muttered, rubbing the back of her neck with one hand. She wasn't sure what sort of compliment that was. What was the point in a test that nobody could pass? Was he trying to make her feel better, or had she done something wrong? She was too tired to think about it. As soon as Mr. Archer turned her loose, she slunk off across the quad, sticking automatically to the shaded places where there was greater cover. All she wanted right now was the safety and silence of her room, and a long sleep.
