She wondered what would happen if she began using her newly acquired slang on the street, outside of the controlled chaos environment of the school. If she appropriated bites of strangers’ food and explained she was simply collecting a fanum tax, or if she told the handsome, unsmiling barista she saw every morning that she was earning a degree in Advanced Rizzenomics, would her friends and neighbors laugh, or would they think she was having a psychotic break?

She hated everything about it, had done so right from the beginning, knowing she had made a terrible, terrible mistake two weeks into her master’s practicum, before she had even completed the degree. By then, though, it was too late. Too many years in school, too much money, too much of an investment to walk away from. The sunk cost fallacy of her life.

It made him sad, but Ranar had reminded himself that there was beauty in ephemera. Some things weren’t designed to last forever. They were lovely for a minute, provided happiness for a brief window, and then they were gone — like the flowers he sold.

I think you are bad for my son’s blood pressure.” Sumi gulped.
