buywithme[Video clicks on, and what is by now an unfamiliar face to most appears. Prefect has become reclusive in the last several months, socializing very little, and only really leaving his cabin to eat, drink, and work on Barron's graduation. Only now Barron is graduated, so there'll be no more of that last one. He lifts a hand to offer a small wave, but is clearly a little uncomfortable.]
So, Barron's graduated.
[He speaks slowly, as if choosing his words exceptionally carefully. It's the exact opposite to how he was when he arrived, years ago.]
Barron's graduated, and... I'm tired, and I want to leave now. But Comrades... This place...
[He glances away and swallows, knitting his forehead as he searches for what he's trying to say. Finally, he settles.]
...It's been an honour. Knowing you, has been an honour. Surviving it has been an honour. This place might be the end of history, and it might be hell, or purgatory, and I don't know if it's right or not right now? But seeing it through has been an honour.
[He pauses, then bows his head a little.]
And I hope you all get out and go home someday.
[And with that, the video ends.]

Sorry. Did you want longer with him here?

Thank you.

If you make him sad I'll track you down and destroy you.
[Wait, that's not.]
Gently.
[There we go.]

Besides, we're going back to your home, so I won't be hard to track down.
