Turned out, this thing was pretty easy to get down after all - it was starting to get old, all this business with expectations, but whatever. In the end, Nem decided to take some of the stone anyway, because they could, because it was there. "Because I want to," they said in reply to Fox, though without looking around at her just yet. It was a good enough reason for now.
As they worked the plaque off the stone, Nem heard another voice. Turov. Another. Nam, first year. This time they didn't speak right away, not until they had the plaque tucked under one arm, and a chunk of rock from the pillar discreetly tucked away into their pocket. They eyed the pillar for a moment - they knew it well - noting its apparent lack of structural soundness. Only then did Nem turn around, looking briefly between the three girls before addressing Turov directly. "Morning. Nice day for it."
Nem seemed in no hurry to rush away with their ill-gotten gains. Instead, they turned their attention to Nam, answered her question belatedly. "It's a plaque, saying about how this is where Lucien Rosier was killed." By the pillar, for the record. Hollingberry couldn't take that credit.
