"The Ninety-sixth was then ordered to the extreme right of the front line; climbing up [Lookout] the mountain side, to where it rises perpendicularly, the Regiment was rapidly advanced; flanking the enemy's works, pouring a destructive fire down the rifle pits, which caused the rebels to give way and fall back to the point near Craven's House, when night coming on, the enemy evacuated the mountain. Our loss was quite severe in this action." [Source: Illinois Adjutant General's Report, Regimental and Unit Histories, 1861-1866 ]https://www.ilsos.gov/departments/archives/databases/reghist.pdf ]

  The 96th Illinois suffered severe losses scaling Lookout Mountain, but they flanked Confederates and planted the Stars and Stripes on the battlements.

HEY, I JUST MET YOU - Soma Week, Day 2

Day: One Two Three Four Five Six Seven

Well here we are, late but present. Chapter three will likely not be a thing for a few more weeks, but until then, please enjoy the next installment of whatever the heck this is. Many, many thanks to @silly-twin-stars and @professor-maka for the eyes!

“Would you pass the shortcake, Soul?”

Wedged between Liz and a veritable mountain of stuffed animals, Soul reached into the middle of the circle to grab a plate with tiny strawberry shortcakes and pass it to Maka under the neck of a human-size giraffe plushie.

“All right,” Maka said once she took a dainty bite. “Madame Chairman, I move that we begin this Tea Party.”

Patty nodded sagely from across the circle. “Is there a second?”

“Second,” Liz said from her right, sipping oolong from a mug that said ‘There’s a chance this is gin.’

“It is moved and seconded that the Tea Party begins! Raise your hand if you wanna bring up a piece of business.”

A girl with bubblegum pink hair raised her hand. “I’d like to discuss our investment portfolio.”

With a nod from Patty, the girl - he was pretty sure Maka had whispered that her name was Kim - launched into a discussion involving economics and finance far above his ken. After her, Liz discussed the Fine Arts budget and how to best modify professors’ curricula to accommodate current skill levels in the program before Tsubaki gave a very professional report on the state of post-graduation employment rates. The only reason Soul knew Tsubaki’s name was because Blaine used to have a very large crush on her, spending many a night composing what he called ‘bronnets’ until he happened to walk behind the music building one day and interrupt what he later called an ‘intense game of tonsil hockey’ between her and Liz.

Soul sat there, dumbfounded. Beyoncé was right - girls do run the world.
