To say that the blackout was an inconvenience for Puck would be an understatement. One minute, he was making out with Jo and shoveling candy into his mouth, and the next he was being forced to leave his apartment at this ungodly hour to go stay on campus, of all places. The only upside was the pot he smoked before, which was doing wonders at keeping him calm despite the craziness. Trudging into the gymnasium, Puck noticed people with flashlights and blankets, some of who seemed like they'd been there a hot minute already. It made him feel wildly underprepared, considering most of the space in his backpack was taken up by snacks and beer cans. He also tried to ignore the fact that he was trapped in a room full of girls that he'd slept with, as well as his ex, who was undoubtably looming around somewhere. Shoving his hands in the pockets of his pajama pants and finding a wall to lean on, Puck listened to pandemonium around him. "Yo, why is everybody like, freaking out so much?" He asked people in the surrounding area, trying to dig out a Pespi from his backpack in the darkness. "Things could be way worse." As if on cue, he heard the sound of someone crying in the distance. "I mean, damn. You would'a thought the purge siren went off or something. Are people really that scared of the dark?"
