        Maybe she didn’t either, since her first thought was hide Billie, not
        “You can’t come in, I don’t have pants on!”

            Would it because of fraternization with a fellow student or fraternization with a fellow student of the same sex?  Remember, the people who run an institution like IU would likely insist on at least maintaining a facade of decorum and propriety for the record, even if they knew off-the-record that it was still a sham.

              This is the same situation as Sal/Jason. You can’t be in a position of authority over the person you are dating. Thats, like, basic working class jobs 101. Especially in college. Otherwise the whole student/teacher separation starts to look more like a H Dating Sim…

                In fairness though, all they should have to do is sign an agreement where Ruth says she won’t let her relationship (Or an ending of it) influence how she mitigates arguments involving Billie, or let her get away with anything she wouldn’t let other students get away with.

    I’m honestly not sure how to feel about Billie’s optimism here. Yes, she’s ignoring or minimizing some massive issues, but the thing is, Billie’s life is FULL of massive issues and pushing some of them to the periphery of her consciousness might be necessary for her survival at this point. She has been in such low places that feeling good about a probably-doomed relationship actually seems like a huge step up.

    Best case scenario, the overall good feelings will last long enough that she starts to feel better about other things. Worst case, I guess, is that Ruth’s embarrassment about this tryst and her “irresponsibility” as an RA has them back at each other’s throats in about three more installments.

    Hm.. If Ruth quits her position as RA she could date Billie. RA work stresses her out anyway. And it’s not like she’s getting paid for this. If she gets college credits for this she could try figuring out some alternative activity for that. Really she needn’t stress out so much.

      Somehow, I don’t think Ruth’s only issue with the relationship is her job.

      I don’t know about Ruth’s school, but our RAs got pay PLUS room and board. Depending on her financial situation, that might be tough to give up.

        Oh in that case, she might get into trouble if word of Billie and her got out.

    If Billie jumps out of the window, and no one is there to see, does her landing make a sound?

    This isn’t really a problem is it?

    You just tell them Billie came to talk to you… Problem solved? you are an RA… just wanna hide all the beer and such.

    Heck you could just tell them at the door she’s there talking to you and she’ll catch up. Their in private talks right now…

    I mean use that RA status!

        The common sense approach just won’t work. The universe demands that Amazigirl be appealed to, to find and resque Sal’s room-mate.

      That sort of reminds me of a time at a huge camping trip we were on, I wandered down to the local group hangout where I run into a friend who asks me if I’ve seen her daughter. I reply, “Yeah, she’s asleep in our tent,” (a group of us were camping together) and she burst into tears, startling me considerably.

      See, what happened from my side is that the pre-teen, alarmed at the rumour of mundanes sneaking into the periphery of the camp and causing trouble, and not wanting to be alone in her Mum’s encampment, came over next door to ours (which was much larger, walled, well-lit, and guarded) and asked if she could crash out with us until her Mum came back, so of course I said sure and eventually wandered down to where I ran into her Mum.

      Her Mum, however, didn’t realize this; she just came back to check on her and found her gone, and had spent the intervening time going crazy trying to find her daughter in a camp of around a thousand people, with creeks surrounding it. She figured her daughter had been abducted or was drowned.

      I still don’t know why she didn’t check with us first, I mean we were literally the next tent over, but yeah. She was pretty freaked out.

      So since Walky just said WHY they were looking for her, it’d be pretty simple for Ruth to just say “Billie? Oh yeah, don’t worry. She’s safe here; we were up all night talking about stuff. She’s just using the can but when she’s done I’ll have her text you.”

      Mind you, if they realize she isn’t wearing pants, questions might be raised, although if Ruth could always claim they caught her taking advantage of Billie being in the can to get some fresh undies on, or something.

        Given that they know what Ruth is normally like, “Up all night talking about stuff” would probably jump out at them as OOC.

    “Thanks, everybody, sorry I scared you! Ruth and I had a good cry, drank more than we should’ve, slept in. You guys are awesome friends. See you in class!”

      It would be a really, really bad idea to admit that they were drinking in the dorms, especially since Ruth is the RA.

      But yes, something along those lines. “I was having an emotional conversation with Ruth and ended up falling asleep here. Yeah, I thought she was a real hardass too, but I feel a lot better now. Maybe I’ll start hanging out with her some.” It would be inappropriate for an RA to date their residents, and questionable to be extremely close friends, but it’s totally unnecessary to pretend they’re not even on speaking terms.

          In this case, because alcohol’s not allowed on campus and she’d be drinking in the presence of a minor with a known alcohol problem (and Walky and Joyce both know that), and depending on Ruth’s age she might not be legal either.

        My only experiences with dorm life were of the “The Man says we shouldn’t drink ’til we puke, smash the furniture, or take PCP, so bring it ONNN” variety, so I’ll take your word for it.
