Getting modern students’ attention is hard, but when an earthquake – Marsquake, Wesley supposed – shook the dome walls, everyone lost interest in everything.
Wesley kept going. “Plague is understated in Romeo and Juliet. It’s almost invisible to the modern audience but in the sixteenth century –”
No one listened. They were running around, babbling and putting on their damned pressure suits.
“Stop that,” he said, but they cycled through the lock and left him alone.
Kids these days. Ignorant, uninterested, and undisciplined.
He put on his suit too, just in case, tucked his helmet under his arm and went to complain.
