A brand new group is on the making, The Apostles, a Pillar-like group led by none other than our brand new headmaster, Gregoire Girard. A student body that would lead students and enforce the law on this little school of ours. Little is still known about this student body, but who knows? It might just be what the school needs.

A lunch box is seen last Friday, around 12:37:08pm with an encouraging note packed inside. This appalling display that utterly lacked manliness has left many students stunned and outrage, as some decided, after a long while, to speak out against it.
Full Story Here.

There was a difference between test anxiety and general anxiety. However, when you have both, life can be pretty difficult to navigate at school. She was hungry, she was pissed off, sleep deprived, and running on coffee as she found her way to the outside of her geometry class. She had been a year behind in math, but didn't really care about it in the grand scheme of things, but navigating mental health issues like this was always a challenge regardless of the logical thoughts that came to mind.
Not having money for her zoloft wasn't helping either. Not one bit.
She bolted. She wasn't sure what was compelling her to do so aside from the sheer terror that lurked in her stomach and caused her to want to tear her hair out or hit herself, but that seemed like good enough a reason for her. She ducked out of the room and made her way to an area outside of the school that a bunch of other kids had been smoking at before. She was hoping she could bum a cigarette off of someone or maybe see if anyone would just shotgun her some of the smoke. She was pretty desperate, just something to sort of distract her.
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK!" She yelled, slamming her fist into a nearby wall and hurting her knuckles. "That isn't helping... that isn't helping..." She shook her hand and hopped around, feeling rather silly about the whole scene.

Varus sighed as he let out a puff of smoke. He'd been trying to work on his tricks lately but they all seemed to look the same no matter how he inhaled or exhaled. He couldn't even do the "dragon's breath" that was supposed to be easy.
"Fuck fuck fuck fuck FUCK! That isn't helping... that isn't helping..."
Shit. Was that a teacher?
The blonde boy glanced over and saw a girl approaching with a horrified expression. Now normally Varus wasn't one to pry into people's lives but given that she came to the secret smoking area she must have had it bad.
"You okay there?" he asked, "you look like you're about to implode."

"You okay there? You look like you're about to implode."
"Yeah, sorry just. Okay well no." She shook her head. It was no use lying even if she didn't want to trouble someone else with her own shit. "Just dealing with a lot of anxiety, I got a test and I just ran out from it, or away from it, whatever. I'll take the F, it's easier than trying and getting a D."
She slumped down onto the ground hard and let out a sigh, "sorry for crashing your relaxation time." She looked over to see that he was smoking, and suddenly wondered if this person was feeling particularly charitable. "Hey do you mind if... can I take a drag off that? I swear I don't have mono or anything."
She gave a half-hearted smile and tugged gently at her hair, a nervous habit that she had sometimes when she felt like a burden.

"Yeah..." Varus trailed off, taking another drag, "that's rough buddy."
He sat down next to her, unsure about whether to stay distant or try and pat her on the shoulder. He wasn't one for physical contact, but he could understand the frustration of getting bad grades. Ever since coming to PHS, the classes felt harder than before and the time to study seemed to lessen with every awful encounter. He couldn't imagine how bad it must have been having anxiety follow her.
"You don't have to worry 'bout crashing anything," he shrugged before taking out a small bag of green and a few white papers, "you're going to want more than a few puffs to calm you down."
Without waiting for an answer, he put the joint before rolling up another one and handing it to the girl.
"So are you tryin' to go to Ivy League or something?" he asked, holding out a light, "what's got you so wound up about a single test?"

"Yeah... that's rough buddy. You don't have to worry 'bout crashing anything, you're going to want more than a few puffs to calm you down."
"Oh that's..." She trailed off a little bit. "I've never, I mean. Uhm. I thought those were just handrolled... so that's what that smell is."
She had only ever smoked cigarettes and had a strong hatred for alcohol and the idea of being drunk, but she had been around pot before, and was curious to try it. Still, she wondered if this was the right environment, or at least she wondered it for about two seconds before the boy had managed to roll her a joint and hold out a light.
"So are you tryin' to go to Ivy League or something? What's got you so wound up about a single test?"
"It's not just a single test. I mean, it is, but it also isn't? It's just everything you know." She took a pull from the joint as it was lit, the lack of a filter and the quick burn making it harsh on her throat as she exhaled and found herself coughing quite a bit. She tried to cover her mouth as she gave silent but physically loud coughs in that her whole body moved with it. She held the joint out toward the guy.
"Sorry," She said, wiping her eyes. "It's just that everything gets to be too much. I feel like a failure, I can't study or focus on studying. I'm hungry all the time and just so so tired. I get this big pit in my stomach any time I think about returning to class but the more I miss... the bigger that pit feels. It's weird."

Had this girl ever actually smoked before? Varus couldn't hide a smirk as he saw her cough and hack. It reminded him all too much of the first time that he grabbed one of his father's cigars and ended up vomiting from too much tobacco. He managed to stay much cleaner with cigarettes and weed even though they were supposedly the "lower class" of the smoking world. Things like pipes and even cigarillos didn't appeal to him, perhaps because he'd rather ruin his lungs in small doses rather than big ones.
He grabbed the redhead's joint and took a long puff as he continued listening to her worries, deciding to put out his own half-smoked one (for now) and share in the camaraderie that was pot smoking.
"Yeah I feel you," he answered, "it's like...a guy rolling down a hill. Once he gets going you can't stop him from getting injured over and over again."
He was quite the philosopher when he wanted to be, even if his metaphors didn't make sense.
"Or like," he passed the joint back, "a self-fulfilling prophecy. The more you give a shit, the worse you're gonna get. And the worse you get the more you give a shit."

"The beast that feeds itself. So I just need a filter, you know? Medication used to be that filter that would allow me to just see things through a different lens. I've moved though, my medical insurance has changed, and so I'm in this flux period where unless I want to go to the emergency room every three days I just gotta deal with having extreme anxiety." She took another long drag, holding it in a little longer, effectively ghosting it without understanding what she was doing. She had smoked cigarettes and while the first one caught her off guard this second turn had her prepared for it as she would take a second drag, coughing just lightly on that one before giving it back.
"I'm not sure how well this stuff is going to work on me, cus of my height and all. Maybe it'll help though. It's not alcohol either way so I'm happy with it." She cracked her knuckles a little bit as she got comfortable, feeling a little sore from having hit them hard. "How about you, aren't you worried about missing class or anything?"
She looked at the joint and then gave a small laugh, "Never mind, stupid question I suppose."

Shit "that's rough" didn't even begin to describe her situation. How could anyone leave the house if they felt like going to the ER every couple of days? It was a good thing Varus got to her when he did.
"Seems like you've calmed down some," he shrugged, "plus I heard weed's getting more legal now. Like you can a get a card for those stores."
He let his head hit the wall as he watched her get more comfortable. He was lucky in that his weed guy didn't lace it with anything terrible or give him spice instead. It would have been a terrible way for her to end the day.
"How about you, aren't you worried about missing class or anything?"
Varus paused. Was he worried? What was worrying anyway? What did it mean to go to class? Was he learning too much in philosophy?
"Never mind, stupid question I suppose."
"I'm offended," he laughed, "I'm a perfectly adequate student. I get my grades."

"What type of grades do you get?" She was mostly curious, hoping not to be too offensive by asking but she was genuinely wholeheartedly curious. "Like, if they are good I might have to look into this stuff. Like how much does one cig.. er, how much does one... is this a blunt? joint? How does this stuff even work?"
She became relatively fascinated by it, looking at the joint that Varus had, not entirely sure exactly how much someone smoked or if it had sort of a long term calming effect. Would she need it for anxiety attacks or just periodic to manage her overall anxiety? Was self medicating this way a good idea or was it as bad as her mom dealing with her depression through alcohol?
"I mean like, do you get addicted or anything?" She had to admit, with how adamant she had been against alcohol, openly so, her exposure to other vices had been very limited and left her pretty uneducated in terms of the green stuff.

"Too soon to say," Varus shrugged, "I used to get Cs and B minuses back in private school but that place has real teachers."
He didn't want to admit that he was starting to fall behind or that he'd only done well in in private school due to their tutoring services. Even if the work here was allegedly easier he didn't have as many resources. The weed helped keep him calm, but it's not like it made him smarter. He still made the same mistakes.
"Depends where you go," he answered, "they usually charge by the ounce and you roll it yourself but if you want something legal you're gonna pay a pretty penny."
He closed his eyes, too subdued to be annoyed by her many questions. She needed to relax.
"I'm not a doctor man. I just smoke it to take the edge off," he paused for a moment to ponder, "or if I'm bored or whatever. Don't think anyone I know is addicted. It's not like crack or anything."

"That's fair," She said as she thought about it a little bit longer. She'd have to go the not so legal route if she wanted to do it. That and she'd have to find work in the first place. Maybe she could sell pot to fuel her pot habit? Who was she kidding, she lacked the charisma and energy it would take to sell pot. Besides, that's the last thing she needed for her mom to find out. She would kill her and then she wouldn't listen at all whenever Sarah told her to quit drinking... which now that she thought about it wouldn't be that big of a change.
"Either way, thanks for the drags off of that. I'm feeling pretty good now... things are kinda moving slowly and my arms feel really tingly." She smiled up at him and the corners of her mouth felt tight, almost locked into the smile as she let out a small giggle. "This feels nice."

"Yeah really puts things in perspective," he laughed, "like why did you even need to get tested on that shit. Why not the stuff that actually matters?"
He let out a small puff before turning to her. She seemed much calmer and even happy now that they were smoking. He personally didn't feel different, maybe like everything was slower but perhaps he'd been smoking so long that he just didn't notice.
"Glad you're feeling better," he smiled, "would hate for you to trip out like me the first time I did it."

"Yeah.... wait what that's POSSIBLE?" She looked at him wide eyes and felt her eyelids pretty significantly. "Woooooooow that sounds awful! Hey, who are you?" She asked as she took a good look at the dude. She was starting to feel a little dizzy, mostly a little sleepy.
She started to stand up a little bit, grabbing her bag. "I think I need to find somewhere safe to sleep... do you have a bed nearby? Do you drive a car? Can I sleep in your car?" She didn't realize how badly this would make her want to sleep but for some reason it did. She could go for food for sure but sleep was the primary craving that her body seemed to have at the moment.

"Well yeah nearly jumping out of a two-story building is pretty bad," Varus laughed, "so I don't know. I guess you can call me 'guy-who-jumps-from-windows' or Varus."
Of course, their circumstances were a bit different. Where this girl looked for relief, he had just been messing around and ended up paying for it. She seemed to have more solid goals in her mind and perhaps after all of this she would go back to her normal life of studying or whatever it was that overachieving teenagers did. He'd just be smoking.
He glanced up when she stood and asked whether he had a place to sleep, but shook his head. Instead he stood up, realizing rather quickly that she was a slight bit taller than him, which was something he was used to but a bit annoying.
"Forget sleeping...whatever your name is! Let's get some food. I'm starving."

"Varus huh? I guess self-defenestration is one way to have a not-so-good time." Then Varus said something about food and her ears perked up. "Food?" She stood up strong and tall, her hands clenched in fists as a somewhat deadly chuckle would emit from the girl. "I'm gonna eat so much food, Varus just you wait..."
She reached into her pocket and pulled out a handful of dimes and nickels.
"I'm gonna drink so much water from that water fountain, Varus, just you wait!" Her stomach growled and she suddenly felt kind of depressed. "I'll uh, I'll watch you eat, okay? And my name is Sarah, by the way."
