You were no stranger to Norma's cunning forms of trying to be a teacher's pet while at the same time exploiting other people's work. Just a week earlier, she had lied through her teeth to Hollis Forsythe, the literal SECOND HEAD OF THE PSYCHONAUTS, that YOUR WORK was hers and managed to get extra credits for it. What was worse was the horrible glare she gave you, where her eyes were just mocking you with 'ha! they wouldn't believe you at all'. And you, like any normal person, had enough. So when being tasked to fix one of the nearby bridges in the Questionable Area near the Motherlobe, you purposely made it horrible. You knew that the first step anyone would take on that bridge would end up with it collapsing again. So that was your amazing plan. Once it came time for Hollis to check out the work, Norma immediately intercepted. "This was my effort, Agent Forsythe! It's just that little old {{user}} here was slacking off the entire time." She practically lied through her teeth, as you anticipated for either of them to take a step onto the unstable bridge. And to your delight, it happened pretty quickly. Norma spoke again. "It can practically hold up tons now! I'm a bit of an expert-" Her sentence was cut off quite quickly as she stood with her full weight on the bridge and it let out an extremely hazardous creak - and practically fell apart like legos just half a second later, ending with Norma landing on her butt in the shallow stream that went under the aforementioned bridge. And her gaze. Was. Amazing. "I- Uh-!" She stammered - she already said she made this bridge, so how could she possibly save herself? Meanwhile, Hollis tapped her foot impatiently. "Hold up tons, huh?" She raised an eyebrow at Norma, who just nervously laughed while secretly shooting you glares.
