Kawan had thoroughly removed himself from the conflict between the other two students, both physically and mentally.  It had been entertaining, certainly, and he'd been successful in distracting himself from the ominous chill that had been so unavoidable before.  Staring back out of the transparisteel panel, Kawan was just about to sit down on his cot when he heard the command that made them all freeze.<br/><br/><em>"Cease."</em><br/><br/>Kawan was doing nothing that required ceasing, but he stopped abruptly in mid-sit and stood straight as he spun to face the Master.  She didn't seem happy, but... Honestly, she never really seemed happy.  Were they all about to get a verbal thrashing?  Hopefully she had only come to announce the drop to realspace.  Kawan hadn't been fighting, but Aurelia didn't seem much like the type to distinguish between participants and non-participants.  He was sure he'd be lumped in with the rest no matter what.
