"Romans!" one of the praetors called, Sage couldn't tell which. "Please be silent."
Everyone immediately stopped muttering and turned their attention toward the praetors.
"I understand that this has been a rather… shall we say, different occurrence, but that doesn't mean that curfew doesn't exist! I would like you all to go back to your barracks. The Senate will convene in the morning to discuss this issue further."
Valerie threw her hands up. “Oh! Let’s play American government and try to cover up what just happened by telling everyone to sleep!” She mocked angrily.
"Calm down Val!" Sage soothed. "They're just as freaked out as we are. And they did say the Senate would discuss it tomorrow…" He couldn't stop himself laughing a little at the analogy though.
“I don’t want to calm down,” she said, then laughed.
Arianna tugged her braid nervously, watching some people start going back to their barracks.
Sage laughed with her as everyone milled around, heading back towards the barracks.
He remembered something Arianna had said just before the speech had started. "Why aren't quests a good thing?" he questioned, curious.
“People tend to die.”
Sage thought about that. "Yeah good point." he conceded.
“Exactly. I should probably get going.” Arianna said. “Don’t want Alexander to be annoyed.” She said, making it sound like a joke.
“He’s a d*ck,” Valerie said, waving. “Bye.”
Arianna chuckled, “Just don’t let him hear that.”
“Shhh,” she winked.
Sage laughed Valerie and Arianna's antics before heading back to his barracks and slipping into a deep, and thankfully dreamless, sleep.
(Talking about sleep, I want more sleep.
Time skip?)
Cato went to bed. (Wow I’m such a creative writer)

(Talking about sleep, I want more sleep.
Time skip?)
\ yeah, let's time skip :P \
(Ok. Waking up? Or the meeting?)
(Are any of the rp characters in the meeting?)
(I dunno. Are any of them high ranking enough?)
\ centurions, praetors and the augur are all senators i think \
\ so arianna is. and i think a couple of other characters? and we could spy or something idk… XD \
(Spying is funzo)
(Ooh can Cato build an eavesdropping machine or something?)
(Wow. Spying. Be careful not to get caught. I guess Arianna could be at the meeting then.)
(Yeah and Cato could build her like a concealable device thingy so that the others can hear?)
\ cool! \
(Yea!)
(So who wanna starts?)
Sage rolled over in his bed, getting up reluctantly and stifling laughs as he watched the senators struggling into their togas. There was a senate meeting after breakfast.
He went to shower, in an attempt to wake himself up.
