Also, apparently in some schools there's a contraband market of salt and pepper. ohhh god i was in middle school when those school food incentives came out that cut salt out of 90% of the shitty prison-grade bulk products they cooked for us. there were kids genuinely scamming each other and charging a dollar(!) for one little sachet of salt bc of it id imagine irken cadet academies have a problem of kids selling each other snacks that they're not allowed to have (for various reasons) and overpricing each other for it. stealing coins out of their teachers' desks when theyre not looking and using them to buy adult size sodas from the vending machine just down the hall from the smeetery Ah yes, I remember that too. I was a little goody-two-shoes who didn't participate. I regret that now. I wanna be a criminal! Invaders-in-training using their SIR units to store contraband soda and soup.

Irken scientists having an equivalent of Kuai Kuai culture (that they totally picked up from the Vortians shh) and sticking favorite snacks (which they're not supposed to have in the lab) on top of their lab equipment to make it cooperate.

(that is; "beat the shit out of your computer until it works" which is a tried and true method of fixing older electronics. todays electronics however, are immune to this.)

Irken: Well, turning it off and on again didn't work. Time to use Ol' Reliable. *breaks out Cat O' Nine Tails* Vortian: Have you tried asking politely or adjusting the candy position???

I would argue that schoolchildren scamming is as part of the human condition as singing or making art. Love those little hellspawn capitalists. I'll excuse it 'cause their little cherub faces make me weak. And you know smeets would be even cuter.
