>in the grim darkness of British schools for girls, there is only war

Okay, Gryph? That felt... kinda hurtful. I went out of my way to make the setting hopeful rather than just wall-to-wall bleak. I wanted to show that in dark places, a shared hobby can be a source of joy and hope and light when you need it most. This school is horrible, yes, but the girls aren't hopeless. I wanted to make the girls and their graduated alums feel Eyrie As Fuck as a specific counterpoint to how horrible the school is. So comparing it to the ridiculous horror of 40K feels... I dunno, dismissive, I guess. And a little unnecessary.

Sorry. I'm probably being overly sensitive. It just felt a little mean, that's all.
