[He actually joined in on the little mock toast, because why not? A toast to comrades in... suffering. ]

What would I do?

[There is this big, arrogant smile on his face now.]

I have it all planned out! Once I am done with my schooling, I am moving on to a prestigious University. Then I will find a job in either law or politics. and then, I shall become my country's youngest prime minister. And then, after I have retired, I shall make a living through book royalties and lecture fees.

[He seriously has it all planned out.]

And I am going to do it regardless of those demons! And my current financial situation. And this place.

[He says the last into his tea very bitterly.]
