[whimsicalism]

Sure; ask away!

[She seems happy to help.]

[cellpreservation]

Can you tell me anything about what your life was like before you ended up here?

[whimsicalism]

I’m guessing you mean before I met the Principal, right? I can do that though it was a bit weird…

[cellpreservation]

Yeah, back then. And... I mean, we have talking animals here, so I think I'm ready to hear about weird stuff.

[whimsicalism]

I was going to get some help with classes then I woke up in a school in the middle of an ocean? It was weird… but nice. I got to meet a lot of pretty girls!

[cellpreservation]

...Do you remember any details about the school? Like its name or stuff like that.

[whimsicalism]

Well, it was always summer for one… the school grounds just dipped off into the water. Not really good with names, sorry.

[cellpreservation]

...It was always summer?

[Weird indeed.]

[whimsicalism]

An endless summer! No teachers, no parents. Just us. It was nice.

[cellpreservation]

Wait, it was still a school, though?

Did everyone end up there the same way?

[whimsicalism]

It was more like an abandoned building by the time I arrived. Honestly, I wish I knew. It was a bit of a mystery to us… for the longest time it was just me and these three other girls. Can’t tell you their names right now. The Principal might hear.

[cellpreservation]

Why, do you think he'll bring them here too?

[whimsicalism]

I mean, wouldn’t you think that in my position?

[cellpreservation]

No, it's fair, I guess. I just don't really know how much power the principal has yet.

Anyway, anything else about that school?

[whimsicalism]

I hope you don't find out.

Nothing that I can think of that would be helpful here... I think it wasn't a place like this, though.

[cellpreservation]

You never figured out how you ended up there? ...Or how you ended up here, either.

[whimsicalism]

We had a couple ideas but not really.

[She pauses.]

I do remember how I came to the Academy now, though. The Principal promised me something and I agreed.

[cellpreservation]

Wait, really? Like, he met you at that other school?

[whimsicalism]

He did. I was pretty freaked out; it'd been just the few of us for a long time.

[cellpreservation]

What was he like? ...Did the others at the school meet him, too?

[whimsicalism]

Very business like, very proud of himself. Nah, we talked alone.

[cellpreservation]

Maybe to stop the others from being around to stop you...
