[color=6ecff6] [h1] [center] THOMAS LANCASTER [/center] [/h1] [/color] [center][color=f6989d] [h3]Club Aether -> [color=6ecff6]Home[/color] [/h3][/color][/center][hr] Thomas didn't even have to call the police. Someone apparently already did. Officers soon flooded the club and arrested everybody who they thought were the one participating in the fight. Thomas, of course, was far from the fight scene, and the fact that he could not stand was enough to convince the police he was just an average clubgoer. So he was luckily spared. The one who was present in the fight but did not throw any punches, and pretty much Thomas's feet was taken in, in handcuffs, regardless of what she was actually doing. Thomas knew the police would simply be trying to end the fight, so taking in everybody would simply be a procedural thing to do. But it turned out to be a lot worse than that... The Solaris PhD candidate left the club soon after, and drove his way down to the police station, an hour after her arrest. To his surprise, and frustration, Jeanie was not at all out and freed. Guess what? The SCPD didn't give a damn about what she did. They just completely ignored everything Thomas tried to say, sloppily and incompetently stated they would spend the night contemplating for what they did. So Jeanie was taken into jail to reflect on the action that were obviously righteous and should be done at that moment. How appropriate. The irony in this is that what kind of person tells people to use their brain more than fists, but then proceeds to not put any thoughts at all into their job as a police officer, proceeds to arrest innocent people and refuses to listen to them. After the debate that just ended up with the police not listening to either parties, Thomas simply swallowed this ridiculousness and returned home, accepting that he would be spending the night by himself. Great. It wasn't because he would be lonely for the night, but because he was in peril for not having anyone to help him. His legs are dead. How could he bring himself into the bed now? Lucky for him, he didn't have classes or anything for the next two days, so he didn't have to worry about sleep deprivation. What he needed to worry right now, however, is to sleep. He arrived back home late into the night, tired and frustrated. After his best, but failed, attempt trying to throw himself onto the bed, he decided to sleep on his working desk instead. Grabbing a pillow, he placed it onto the desk as he laid his cheek onto it. As surprising as it may sound, he had never once slept in this position. Simply because his time management was usually second-to-none, so as a result, things like all-nighters or cramming was never in his dictionary. But as great as it sounded, now he is struggling to bring himself to sleep. He did though. Eventually, [s]after 1 hour.[/s] But a few hours after falling into unconsciousness, he was woken up. By the back pain he had for such a sleeping posture. [color=6ecff6]"Now that's just great."[/color] Maybe he should change his posture somehow. Hopefully it'll help him through this night...
