XRia: I don't know what'll happen, right? That's scary enough. But I don't even know what I want to happen, or where I want to go, or what I want to be. Besides not here.
Travis: I think a certain amount of confusion is normal at your age. Even when the circumstances aren't so -- difficult.
Ria: So what did you see yourself doing at my age?
Travis: Uh, I'd been in IAF training for four years, actually.
Ria: ...oh.
Travis: It was more like preparatory school or something, though. A lot of people left long before they finished training. We were told to expect that.I never understood why myself. I mean, yes, the living conditions were somewhat spartan, and they were very strict about rules, and between the classes and the physical training and the studying you didn't have much time to do anything but sleep. And you didn't see your family except for a few times a year, and you were forbidden to leave base or own anything that wasn't school-issued... but I never saw why that would make anyone. leave. ...But I do get the impression that I wasn't a normal teenager.

Yeah. Really late. About every aspect of this comic gave me gyp for no readily apparent reason (I'm still not very happy with the expressions), which would have been bad enough if the day job hadn't followed pretty much exactly the same pattern. I'm blaming Friday the 13th and moving on....
