[There's a pause, then Sam starts muttering to himself.]

No no no no no... this can't be, this can't be happening. [He lets out a pained sort of disbelieving laugh.] It's not working. It's-- it's-- it's gone off

Comrade? I haven't--

Are you all right?

AND HAVE IMMEDIATE CONFUSION

[bythe_books]

Not now, Prefect, I've got--

...

Prefect?

[PAUSE as he looks at his item.]

...

What the hell is going on?

OH SAM, A HEADY MIXTURE OF SORROW AND CONFUSION.

[buywithme]

I think...

...I think I may have graduated.

[bythe_books]

What, really?

[Pause.]

Did the-- did the Admiral give you, uh... papers? [HOW DOES THIS WORK?]

[bythe_books]

Prefect's gone off my item.

[bythe_books]

He, uh... He-- He's...

[SAM CANNOT EVEN BELIEVE THIS.]

He's graduated.

[captain_jtkirk]

I really think you're going to give yourself an aneurysm someday, Sam.

[bythe_books]

I'm surprised this place hasn't done it already.

[captain_jtkirk]

You're a walking miracle.

But the real matter since I can what else is written here, Prefect's really graduated?

[bythe_books]

If no one else's item's acting up... Looks like it.

[mrs_persson]

He's graduated?!

[With a slightly stunned laugh:] Sam, that's marvellous.

[bythe_books]

Yeah, it's... wow, I mean. I always knew he would, I just... Can't believe it now that it's happened.

[mrs_persson]

Well. I'm extremely happy for you both.

[bythe_books]

Thanks. If anyone deserved it, it's him.

[thegooddrjones]

Congratulations, Sam!

[bythe_books]

Thanks, Martha. This is-- I can't even wrap my head around it yet.
