I doubt she'd let us leave so easily but it would be interesting to see someone try, especially with an entire ship and all.
[Steven's hope for actually escaping from this place is slim these days, but that's also a more complicated conversation, as sometimes he wonders if he's in a big rush to leave anymore. He has more friends and loved ones here than he does back home, and even if some parts of his life here aren't... what they should be, he can't deny the benefits to those changes.
He can't say he's too fond of the trials though, these little ones for the new Star Children included.]
Yes, unfortunately that headmistress was not kidding. This place tends to enjoy putting us into uncomfortable social situations, especially with strangers. [A wry little smile there, more toward Thirteen (if she's watching - he assumes she always is).
Steven takes another peek at his slip of paper and sighs, eyes lifting up to Poe again.] I don't mind going first.
