"Yeah. It really is."

A nod, they clearly understanding each other. "Oh well, classes about to start again. Good luck on your test, Sam"

Groans. "Okay. You too. Seeya later, Siv."

Some in the crowd look at Siv like she's been very rude, but a few others seem more at ease about something, and smile more causally and talk more at ease around Dagmar... like they did before.

She's a little nervous at those that smile, waiting for a new shoe to drop... but she tries returning them, just in case.

Huh... odd. One of them says "i forgot about the tests today..ugh" And mutters of mutual grumbling abound... and..Dagmar is in on it if she wants to be.

It's... cautious. This could be a trick.

"I always forget until, like, homeroom..."

"Yeah, and by then you're screwed " zane sighs

The others agree

"...yeah." A test smile.

Smiles returned, more grumbles mixed in with the smiles "Sam knows the score" One says

and ..it rings true!

I mean, it's an opinion maybe but...

She ducks her head down, not pushing the waters too far.

Soon enough... it's time to face the test.

But..she's one OF them facing the test.

So.. yeah, that's better than no test and not being treated one.
