I roll my eyes and continue to lie down.

— Open the door already. Now he’s kicking the door, even louder than before.

- What do you want?

— Gather around, the carriage is waiting.

Thiosec examined the camera with interest. He had seen this technological marvel before; visitors to his father's museum sometimes brought them. However, he had never used one himself. He considered not just testing the device but also trying to understand its mechanism, figuring out how it worked and why. But now, he had a different task.

-- Well, here's the worst half of the first year gathered together. Luckily, we have an expert on advanced technology with us – I haven't seen anything like this before, let alone read about it in books. No offense, but a portrait is probably not our thing – we don't have the right kind of faces, and there's already a gang of Mihos running around in Alma. We could take pictures of boring landscapes or architecture. Maybe we can even find an interesting view if we wander around a bit and look closely. Or, I have a better idea – let's stage a duel and film it. Everyone loves duels – they're even promoting them in the student council. Like, Gideon and I take pistols and he shoots – obviously, without a lead bullet. Or we could put on armor and dress up in old-fashioned clothes. The main thing is to have drama, some kind of highlight. Any other ideas?

At first, he wanted to say something like, "Yes, let's take a picture of me as if I'm winning a duel," but Gideon quickly came to his senses. — Film two students with unremarkable faces pretending to kill each other? — he looked at Fortis with slight surprise. — Well, it's certainly exciting, and it sounds interesting... But it seems a bit gloomy, I don't know. It's as if the only thing that matters is fighting and maiming, which is probably not quite appropriate. The young man glanced at Clivia for a moment, then continued. — Other ideas... Well, I don't think a landscape is necessarily a boring option. We could, for example, climb onto the roof and take a picture of the academy grounds from above; it's not locked, I think. There's a pretty good view from up there, right, Vailis? Or maybe we should wander around and look at nature, the park, or somewhere else; it's the right season for such walks, and maybe we'll come up with something.

Buddlea, Shea, and Claudia decide to take a picture of a cicada.

It would have been more logical to photograph a seagull.

What's this about a bonus for tools...?

— You're probably right, — Bella replied thoughtfully, also looking at the board, — it's unlikely that anyone can be number one in anything in this academy, but everyone knows that number two is essentially number one when you disregard nepotism and corruption.

— Yeah, I remember an old friend of mine who loved being number two, for pretty much the same reason. The last time we met, he could barely fit through the doorway, but he proudly told me that he had finally won the local donut-eating championship. So, what was I saying... oh yeah, being second for a while is definitely a safe strategy, but you always have to keep an eye on the back of the number one, so that at the right moment, bam!, you can snatch the podium for yourself, hee-hee. 😊

I'll wait a bit for the Heroist, just in case he joins us, but I'll definitely take a stand.

let's go

“Oh, this is a pretty good option,” Leyla said, more to herself than to her companions, as her gaze was drawn to a suit of armor stand. “Ixore should like it. It’s convenient, practical, and also a nice decorative element if you put something over it. Definitely worth buying.”
Calling Nira closer to take advantage of her discount, Leyla pays for the purchase but asks that the stand be delivered to the destination a little later, on the day of her friend’s birthday. After all, it would be difficult to keep such a large item a secret.
“I personally got everything I wanted,” the taimanian said, finishing the payment, and turned to the Barbarian and Nirianna. “So, should we go further into ‘Plantago’ or ‘Bless’? Or did you find something for yourselves, Varya?”

— I personally took everything I wanted, — after finishing the payment, the girl turned to the Barbarian and Nirianna, — so, shall we go further to "Plantago" or "Bless"? Or did you also find something for yourselves, Var?

—And by the way, did you hear that we will now have these quarterly tournaments? Because if so, I would drop by "Bless"... 😇

“Futaba didn’t say anything about revising her campaign, so I wouldn’t be surprised if we have another tournament at the end of the quarter,” the time-management enthusiast shared her thoughts. “If she had included a schedule in her campaign, we would know for sure, but there’s nothing we can do about it now. If we find out, it will only be a week in advance.”

Vita, Renn, and Neomaric take a picture of the forest outside the city from a high vantage point.

Checking out "Bless"; it's unlikely that Ware will be able to achieve much here.

“Yeah, it’s tough without a proper schedule… Oh, and I think there were duels to two wins in the campaign. I wouldn’t want to be the poor soul who has to document the results of all our battles! 😂” Nira giggled.

Or did she find something for herself too, Varya?

-- Maybe she did... But I'll buy it later, you know, I need to survive until I get my scholarship, -- there's always some truth in every joke, and the rest is true, and that's the case here. -- So, I'm with you.
