“did you know that they never actually burned accused witches at the stake in the salem witch trials?” boredom led different people to do different things. for maggie, boredom presented in her lying on one of the student resource couches, legs resting against the back pillows, head hanging over the edge, trying to make conversation with the first person her upside down gaze landed on. maybe it was the blood rush influencing her subject choice, maybe it was just her being her - but regardless, she stuck with it. “we just learned about it. they hung ‘em, and they drowned 'em, but they never burned 'em. that incorrect detail probably came from people confusing salem with the europe witch trials. doesn’t it make you think about how many other details of our history are COMPLETELY wrong- all cause of a mixup?”
samara didn’t care about history unless it was that of fashion. it wasn’t her fault, though-- she had been trained by edna for years. ❝ the easiest way to avoid all of that is to just not listen. it’s done me wonders. ❞ edna had always told her: you’re too pretty to know facts like that. they will get you nowhere. it sure boosted samara’s ego and made it easy to not feel bad about knowing some pretty obvious things from history. ❝ can’t get stressed over mixups if you don’t care, ❞ she finished with a shrug.
