Wow, ita. Well, here's hoping the student gets the help she needs.
You know me! I'm like, "Go school! It's your birthday!" Or something to that effect.

Well, I'm confused by the cray-cray student, but oddly relieved there is not an IRB approving that stuff, nor a professor trying to do research sans IRB.
I meet my boss tomorrow! And then she judges whether I can do my job. Eek! Wish me luck.
Also, wish me luck not killing the many teenagers who have been obnoxiously loud and running up and down the hallway and slamming doors. I called down and complained earlier, because I didn't want my first complaint to be when I was actually trying to sleep and ready to kill. I was like "do they have parents, or chaperones??" and the desk person was like "um, yeah, theyre down here...". Guess they were avoiding the kids too. Hoping the last few minutes of quiet mean theyve been taped into their rooms. ;)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Nope. No study ever existed. I'm still flummoxed at the level of effort that went into the "study" email because since it was the only level in the deception it would absolutely not stand up to scrutiny .
Not to mention, if I remember the sequence correctly, your sister was going to let the whole thing drop before she got that "study" email.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Exactly that, BT. Who wants to revisit an uncomfortable scenario like that if you will be seeing each other again, but not so much that the air needs cleaning.

Hi ita! I missed you too, but haven't been able to catch up the last few days to say so. Consider yourself retro-tacklehugged.
I'm glad the student is getting disciplined and HELPED, because that's hella-disturbing.

Happy Anniversary, the both of you! ...That CD was an anniversary present. Yeah.
