Canon: Second Generation (237)
We don't normally provide warning with our stories but thought that one might be warranted for this one since it deals with something we've not really covered in our stories before and that is Institutional Cannibalism. I know it's an odd phrase but if it sounds like this would disturb you we wanted you to be aware of it.

Part 1: New to the neighborhood
A Whateley Academy Tale
by null0trooper
Benjamin needs a new coat, a roommate, a clue or two, and maybe someone should inventory the rocks in his head. It's all good for something at Whateley Academy.
A/N: Thanks go out to Wasamon, Domoviye, and Amethyst for help with the Student Orientation.

Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed."

Part 3: Memory's crooked lane
A Whateley Academy Tale
by null0trooper
Some people come to Academy because they need to, some come because they are needed. How far a person will go for a second chance can be as revealing as a light in the darkness. A candle ground underfoot along the way tells a darker, but no less important, tale. Which will you choose to remember when your own book is signed and closed?
"I've been a fool, I've been cruel to myself
I've been hanging onto nothing
When nothing could be worse than hanging on"
— Ruth Moody, "Heaven When We're Home"
