Well all my tests got pushed back so I am still studying, although they aren't all right after each other now :) I just got my chem test back and I got a 60%, which is way lower than the average but I barely had time to study for it because I was getting a group presentation together. Bio test tomorrow and a Psych test on Monday. Also my parents are visiting on Sunday. My college is the only one open in the area, and we are pretty much the only place with power in the city. So a lot of the faculty are sleeping in their offices and classrooms with family and using the Sports Center for showers.

..Oh man, that ****ing sucks. I'm sorry.
Athedia, I don't know how much I can help you with the other stuff but I got an A+ in gen chem both semesters last year and I'm probably going to tutor next semester; if you want I can help you out with that however I can.
How could you be arrogant and self-loathing at the same time?
The only real thing I wish I know how to do better is manage my time more efficiently, or so more extracurricular stuff.
Being arrogant is my defense mechanism. I used my relatively superior intellect to be an arrogant ass and make people feel stupid and inferior around me. I was not in a good place for a long time in my life.

Oh, okay. I guess sometimes I can be unintentionally arrogant, but it's more I'm just proud of what I do accomplish, while I do have very little self-confidence. I guess I'm similar.

Hey, nice things doesn't just have to be that. A dinner's nice, and so is a movie. Or playing with puppies!
I should be fine for the course, the test just happened at the worst time possible. Thanks for offering though. If I have any questions I will be sure to ask.

Okay then, no problem. I hope you do better on your next exam.
It would be really funny if Henry also ends up leveling to be a huge badass...And we still treat him like the level 1 kid who nearly pissed his pants on the ship.

He did pissed his pants on the boat ..... and that is the image Miriam has of him .... and the fact that he trashed farmers ......

Oh, right, he actually did. But still, it's nearly the whole party that's treating him like a commoner. And Miriam is taking out her personal hangups on him. Still funny though.
Hey if we keep treating him like that he may end up being the BBEG. Just kidding but i actually think that treating him as such is in character. First impressions tend to stick.
I take it Henry's making good use of Morton's bow? Hey...I just remember we still have Morton's +1 longsword, which really isn't too optimal with our group (Mithril, Miriam, and Shiny aren't proficient with it, Kurt and Valen have weapons with better damage outputs, and while Natalia may get more damage with it than her current weapons it's not compatible with Weapon Finesse, and I think a +3 to hit is much better than potentially 2 more damage).
Hm...Even if we're not just giving it away, perhaps we could let Henry or Max (how good a fighter is Max? He is a retired adventurer) or one of the better Linwood guards borrow it if the orcs come calling again?

I am surprised our resident loot monkey does not just want to sell the sword for good old fashioned gold pieces .....
And I can't tell you how good or bad Max is as a fighter.
May be Miriam feeling about possession are rubbing on Natalia ....
Please do not tell about Max and the other NPC. I do not like metagaming and knowing in advance who and what the NPC can do. Let the fog of mystery on as long as possible.

Hey, connections are just as important as gold pieces.

Mmm, I guess we'll find out in a few days when we ask Linwood to help with able-bodied fighters. I was wondering relative to us (eg, Henry's slightly less powerful than us, but close, Morton was more powerful than any of us, etc), but it's okay to keep things under wraps!

Morton was much much more powerful than most of us combined, but he got himself into the middle of too many Orcs. Poor close minded bastard motin.
Etc, since Wizards and Clerics pretty much have a magic bullet for any scenario while Fighters and Barbarians can only do one thing, and not as well as some of the other classes, etc.
Ie, at 1st level a Fighter is "I hit it with my sword." and a wizard is "I hit it with a magic missile" and at 15th level a Wizard is "Wishing, Warping reality, teleporting, incinerating armies, raising armies of undead, crafting the most potent magical items, etc" and a cleric is, "aresurectimg the dead, casting Miracles, communing with their diety" while the fighter is still "I hit it with my sword...3 times if you stand still."
