Jessica blinked her wide brown eyes and looked back to the seated girl. "Is something wrong? You look sad or something." She frowned, concerned.

"Hm?" Arianna finally drew her eyes from the window, and looked at Jessica. "Sad? Is that what you asked? If I was sad?" She gave a half-hearted chuckle before turning back to the window. "No...I'm just waiting for someone to arrive and for classes to finally begin. Look out, Zyn." The feline jumped off Rin's lap, and landed on the floor. He followed his creator to her room, but bumped into her legs as she stopped.
Arianna paused at an open doorway. Inside, she saw a young man looking into a mirror. "Hey. Are you Jessica's brother? She's a handful, is she not?" She leaned against the door frame, watching him. The black miniature fox fluttered up to land on her shoulder, and plucked a loose feather from his wing.

The think young man looked towards the door over a stack of books. "Oh..." He set the stack down on the desk and rubbed his hands on his sweatshirt, leaving a light smear of dust on the material. "Please tell me it isn't that obvious." Jack lowered the hood, his pale strawberry hair in stark contrast to his dark clothing. "I'm sorry for the last minute room change... I tried to get a single, but they didn't have any available and the change to this dorm was a bit sudden." He politely held out a hand. "I'm Jack Eauclaire, by the way."
---
"Hmph!" Jess snorted. "Well she didn't have to vanish on us like that..." Shaking her head, she dismissed the momentary insult. "I wonder how many people are going to be staying here." She turned to JT. "Do you have any idea? Is it going to be really busy?" She bounced on her toes, excited by the idea of a large community.

Arianna took the extended hand. "No, it's not that obvious. She just said that you had dissapeared earlier into your room, so I decided to say hi." The young woman motioned to the small fox on her shoulder. "This is Zyndazi. Call him Zin or Daz if you like. I hope he'll like you, cause I do too."

Jack flashed a small, awkward smile. "A pleasure to meet you Zin and... I'm sorry I don't think I got your name in my paperwork." Once his hand was released he turned back to his desk, not really intending to be rude, he just had a lot of things to set up. He started to separate the books into a few different stacks. "Your pet... is he a summoned creature? Are you a necromancy student?"

Clarence Kendall heaved his two heavy bags up the stairs towards the atrium doors of Dorm 13. To anyone else, they may have appeared to be normal sized, but to Clarence's small frame, they seemed to house the weight of the world. He struggled up the stairs, and the contents of one of his bags spilled all over the concrete patio at the top of them. the beginning of a promising year, he thought absently. He went about cleaning up his possessions as students and faculty strolled by, sometimes staring, sometimes laughing, sometimes not giving a d**n.

Yavanna came up the steps behind Clarence and paused. He seemed to be having trouble with his bags. "Need any help?" she asked, not bothering to wait for an answer, but simply bending down, picking up a random item and tossing it into his open suitcase.

JT went over to where the two people were picking up the bags.
"Need any help?" He asked, without waiting for an answer. He bent down, and picked up stuff and put them in the cases from which they came.
"Hey, I am JT. Who are you two?" He asked.

Arianna smiled. At least Zyndazi might make a new friend. "I'm Arianna. I do study some necromancy, though not much...and I didn't summon Zin like some people think."
Her pet purred lovingly, and rubbed his furry black cheek against Rin's. "Pleased to meet you, Jake. I hope you'll have a great year here." He said in a deep voice very unlike his slender, sleek shape.

Memoria stared at the building for a long minute or so. Her eyes grew large with intimidation.
"Ok," she muttered to seemingly no one, "Alright this is easy. Just walk in.... Yeah... Walk in and greet yourself. I'm sure everyone's nice..."
She took a step.
"See? That wasn't so hard... Just take a few more and you'll be a-ok." She paused and glared at her right shoulder, "What do you mean I'm being a freak? I'm just nervous, is all... Ok, I guess your right." She took a deep breath in, gripping her ugly green bag tighter, "Here I go."
She approached the door, hesitating for a moment before slamming it open; she was so scared that she pushed on it too hard. She sort of tumbled into the room and then, seeing people, actual, honest to goodness living people, she froze awkwardly.

Jack looked over his shoulder and smiled with a nod. "I'm sure I will, Zin. I hope you enjoy your time here too." Turning back to his work, setting the books upright and tucking them back against the wall. "I'm sorry, I guess I shouldn't assume. Necromancy is my field so I suppose my mind just moves in that direction."
----
Jessica found herself suddenly alone and that simply could not do. "H-hey!" She yelped, looking around for the young man she had previously been chatting with. Noting the open door she fled in that direction, leaping carelessly over a wooden chair. That didn't work well, the piece of furniture didn't support the force of her hands when she set them against it for leverage and both the seat and the girl went toppling to the ground.
"Oomph!" She winced, standing so she could rub her poor injured behind. "Stupid chair." She growled, kicking the thing out of spite. The girl clapped, suddenly remembering her mission. "Right!" She hurried towards the door and, before saying a word, her face lit up with a grin. "Oh wow!! Hello everybody!"

Memoria stood there, fighting the urge to run away.
"... Hi..." she said quietly, not making eye contact with the girl.
Memmy was so nervous, she grabbed her bag and quickly shuffled to the other side of the room, pretending to see someone she knew.

Raven steps out of the cab, tossing 30 dollars to the cabbie. She drags her dark blue duffle out of the back seat and makes her way up the stairs to Dorm 13. She opens the large heavy door and walks in still dragging her bag.
Raven notices a few new students in the hallway, but she ignores them. She then says outloud, "where is the d**n room roster?" Just then her pet lizard Zeak crawls out of her coat pocket and on to her shoulder. Raven quickly grabs him and puts him back safely in her pocket.
She proceeds down the hallway, eyeing the walls for the roster.

Memmy saw the angry lady pound past the room assignment sheet. Summoning up her last ounce of courage, she walked over to her, glancing at the poster long enough to get her room number, and tapped her on the shoulder.
"Um... Ma'am... Uh... The roster... you just walked past it," Mem murmured to the ground. She pointed a wavering finger towards the poster. There was an awkward silence, then she stared at her right shoulder, looking rather annoyed and exclaimed in a voice louder than she meant, "Yes, I know I'm in room 251; I saw the poster!"

Raven looked down to see who was tapping her on the shoulder. "Um, Ma'am, did you just call me Ma'am?" "Do I look like an old hag???"
Ravenn tosses her long flowing hair out of her face, "Just call me Raven and we'll get along just fine!" She quickly backsteps and looks over the roster and finds her name "OK, room 251 is it?" Raven eyes Memmy again, "So it looks like we are roomies"
She then steps around Memmy and heads toward her room, glancing back... "I hope you don't smoke?" "you don't do ya?"
