Classes were actually okayish, but lunch and recess were torcher. Kids kept coming up to Eliza and introducing themselves, and she really didn't want to see anyone. She was really good at reading, but useless at math and science. She had two separate people offer to tutor her after she got two questions in a row wrong. And, of course, there was Jane, the hyper, extroverted, easily excited girl she had met earlier. Eliza called her Kinkajou once, and her eyes widened as she chattered on about Wings of Fire. (FYI, that was a Wings of Fire reference, there'll be a lot of those.)
"...and I think Sky is Peri- Are you okay?" she asked, changing course. Eliza was glowering at her.
"Go." she said gruffly.
"But I was about to tell you about-"
"Go."
Jane looked at her sadly.
"You don't mean that."
"I do. Go."
Jane sighed and left.
