Hey, everyone!

[Cue Max! She's dressed in pretty casual clothes, with one difference - she's wearing a square academic cap and a huge grin on her face.]

Guess who's officially a high school graduate? This gal! [And here, she jerks her thumbs back towards herself.] I can't believe I actually did it. This feels awesome! It took a lot of pushing from Professor Callaghan to get me to stop slacking, but I'm glad he never gave up on me.

Anyway, I have some people I'd like to thank. Professor Callaghan, of course - I'm sure I would have graduated without your help, but I wouldn't have done such a good job. I'm gonna miss having you as a professor. Thanks for helping me. And Clara, who also pushed - really hard. [Yeah, she does that.] And the Doctor - you're the best! [You're just going to be Space Grandad forever, deal with it.] Also, last but not least, Chloe. You're amazing. I can't even put much more than that into words.

I've still got some time to think about college; I think I'm going to take the week off to relax and celebrate. Anyone with me?

[ooc: If you want to hand wave your character being there, go for it!]

[Well, boo to you!]

A community college, then?

[Ah. Such intellectual snobbery. EDUCATION IS IMPORTANT.]

[timecapture]

I don't know yet.

[restingstitchface]

Indecisive.

You should fix that.

[timecapture]

Yeah, I really should. I mean, I know what I want to do, but...

[restingstitchface]

It's a big step?

Are you frightened, Max?

[timecapture]

It is a big step... and I'm really not sure that I should, given that I could blink back home at any time.

[At least in theory.]

[restingstitchface]

Perhaps you might. Though you wouldn't end up shackled by debt for everything you've learned. If you're that concerned, have you considered seeking the support of your friends?

[timecapture]

Good point. Maybe I'll just go for it.

Well... maybe. I don't really wanna bother anyone.
