“So, after we get thrown from the raft we had made, we swam to shore and decide to try and find this lookout the shaman had told us about on foot. ” Olly and a bunch of the Lyra students where all hanging around in one of the common areas of the Lyra dorm listening to the Dorm Head, Christian, recount his various summer adventures. All of which seemed to be continually escalating in ridiculousness and hilarity. The students were sitting all around, some on the floor and others hanging off the various couches that were about, of course none of the couches matched each other. The whole Lyra dorm was filled with mismatch furniture. “- then after finally making it to the lookout, I ask Michelle for the food and she looks at me and is like, ‘you were going to bring the food?’” Everyone who was sitting around listening to Christopher all cracked up laughing, everyone except for Olly.
“Wait, where was the food?” Olly called out his eyes bugging out of his head, seriously confused at why everyone was laughing.
“Olly, that was the joke, we had gone all that way and left the food back at our tent,” Christopher explained.
Olly made an ‘oh’ sounds as he rocked back in the couch he was sitting on. “That’s hilarious man,”he said finally laughing now that he got the joke. Of course everyone then started laughing at Olly.
”Alright guys, enough stories,” Christian said once the laughter had died down. “Your lunch is sitting out in the kitchen getting cold, and I don’t see any of you with food.”
“Dude, I’m one step ahead,” Olly said, pointing to the hallways where a plant duplicate of him emerged holding two plates piled high with food. Of course this duplicate didn’t really need to look just like Olly, so it didn’t look quite right, its face was kind of droopy and it walked with a limp. Despite this Olly just grinned and took his plates of food from the plant.
“Okay, that thing is seriously disturbing. Please make it go away,” Christian said warily. Olly didn’t do anything but since the plant duplicate had completed the task it was created for it immediately disintegrated back to dust.
Then Christian ushered most the other students down the hallway toward the kitchen where the food was waiting. Most of the kids disappeared down corridors that led away from the kitchen though, which made sense considering the inedible pile of gluten free/vegan pasta that was waiting for them in the kitchen. Generally Lyra students had their own food tucked away in their room or ate at the Cyprus dorm. At the Andromeda dorm you had to try and sneak past their dorm head Maggie, at the Cyprus dorm though, their Dorm Head Patrick, was never really around, and even if he was, he was completely oblivious to what was going on with the students. Olly was one of the few students who didn’t mind the food though, he would just about anything put in front of him with no complaint. So he just dug into the two plates of pasta he had been brought.
