Room 229, Friday Evening

The cool thing about having her own room was that Gert didn't even really need to pretend that she had a reason to leave in the middle of the day, and she could happily hibernate in the air-conditioned dormitory as long as she pleased. That was especially useful on a weekend like this, where having any more knowledge of the outside world than absolutely necessary was likely to just piss her off.

So on Friday, Gert was happy to hide out in her room with the door cracked just a tiny bit. Her headphones were in her ears, her dinosaur was sprawled across Maddie's bed (sorry, but not really, Maddie), and she had an audiobook to listen to while she played a game on her phone. It didn't really matter what the game was. She was mostly in it for the audiobook.
