"After much debate from the health and safety board, and many vocal complaints from foundation residents, it had been decided that the possession of medical marijuana will be permitted on Chaledea grounds." The P.A system announced one morning.
All over the facility, in dark rooms filled with ominous looking, but... fragrant, smelling smoke, one by one servants opened their doors and looked out to their brethren. Edmond Dantes, Cu Chulainn (only when Scathach wasn't looking), Lord El-Melloi II, and Hector all met each others gazes, a kind of stunned awe in each others eyes, as if they couldn't quite believe what they'd just heard.
One by one they each lifted up what looked like hand rolled cigarettes to each other, slow smiles cracking onto their faces. They banded together, marching down the hallways like a parade, on their way to the main lounge more and more servants and even faculty members joined their ranks.
Just before reaching the main lounge they passed a stoned Heracles, lying on his back in the middle of the floor with a blissed out expression on his stony face, Robin Hood climbed up on top of the Berserkers hulking figure, standing tall like a hiker at the summit of a mountain, before lifting his cigarette clutching hand into the air.
"Free at last!" He cried out in triumph. Even though he hadn't really done anything.
His fellow marchers let out a roar of agreement. One more corner turned and they finally found themselves approaching the main lounge. And the very stormy expressioned Nightingale barring its doors.
The 'parade' came to an abrupt halt.
"You can't have those in the lounge." She told them, leaving no room for argument.
"But," Hector spoke up, but felt his tongue fail him when Nightingale turned her eyes onto him, "the announcement." He protested weakly, waving his hand towards the speakers in the walls.
"Oh you can have those," She allowed him, referencing all the cigarettes and plastic bags everyone was holding, before her expression turned sharp again, "But it is still illegal to smoke indoors. I'd have to... reprimand you."
The entire group took a step back and made a collective sound of nervous discomfort. With this new information, and under the scrutiny of the head nurse, the crowd began to awkwardly dissolve, all enthusiasm dissipated like ash in the wind.
They all returned to their rooms, none speaking or raising their eyes to each other. Once Robin closed the doors to his own quarters, he slumped back onto his couch.
The man in green began to wonder to himself, what if he tried to change that rule? What if they organised? What if-
There was a ding of notification from his computer. Robin perked up at the noise and pulled the device closer to him, opening up the relevant page.
"Oh! New video!" HE cheered to himself, all thoughts of challenging the system quickly forgotten.
