There seemed to be no need to decide, however, as the next set of instructions were announced. 

Pico sighed as she listened; it seemed that there would be no opportunity to settle in before they got started. Ah, well. That just meant that they were serious, didn't it? This was likely to be an orientation period, anyway. Or if not, then they probably just had a lot to cover. It wasn't the best explanation, but it made some sense, at least.

It's not advisable to ignore the instructions on the first day." [/color]
