◉"Care to walk with me to lunch?" The sound of the voice caused Sage's cheeks to become hot and the hairs stood slightly on the back of his neck. He shut his notebook quickly and forcefully, hoping that Alek hadn't seen what he'd been writing and sketching. He turned shyly to look up at the mutant boy. His hair was back to black, and Sage smiled at that. After a moment, he realized that he was just sitting there, smiling stupidly at Alek and hadn't even answered his proposition. "Eh. Eh," he stammered, trying to get something to come out of his mouth. He could feel his cheeks getting hotter by the second. "S-Sure!" he said, standing up hurriedly. In his stupidity and clumsiness, he managed to knock into Alek's bag, spilling anything and everything that had been inside it. Sage's palm came up forcefully to his forehead, and he immediately dropped to the floor and started picking things up. "I'm so so sorry! I'm sorry," he said, flustered and still trying to pick Alek's things up. He was struggling miserably, realizing that he had no idea how Alek had had things arranged in his bag, so he was now sitting on the floor with its contents in his arms.

When they finally managed to fix the situation and were on their way to lunch, Sage continued to apologize. "I'm so sorry; I'm such a klutz," he sighed, huffing a piece of his hair off of his face that fell back to where it had been on his forehead. "What is wrong with me? I'm such a screw up...." he thought to himself, scratching the back of his neck as they walked side-by-side. Or at least he thought he had thought that remark to himself; however, it had escaped right from his mouth. He put his hand over his mouth, his cheeks getting even hotter than they already were. A few tears welled up in his wide eyes, but he choked them back as best he could. He already hated talking to people because he always happened to screw it up or make a fool of himself in some way, and not only had he done that just now, but he had done it with Alek. The person he admired more than anyone on this godforsaken floating chunk of rock. He couldn't believe himself, and he couldn't help the fact that the red colour and heat was refusing to recede from his pale cheeks. He couldn't even manage to smile at this point he was so entirely and unbelievably embarrassed with himself.

He looked around at the groups that were already at lunch. It looked like most of the Academy was there, and Sage realized that it had taken them quite a bit of time to get Alek's bag re-situated. Then he noticed an odd little group of kids. He recognized one of them to be a girl named Reyna; she had been declared an Irrational, though Sage didn't pay any mind to that. The other two kids took him a moment to place, but after a little bit, he realized it was a kid named Vincent, who was a bit of a troublemaker, and a hot-headed, fiery girl called Keahi. He had a knack for remembering names and faces, mostly because of his writing and whatnot. As Sage and Alek came to the lunch line, he also noticed that the white-haired, white-skinned girl was in front of them, the one with the beautiful, bright red eyes and the silent tongue. He cocked his head slightly in curiosity. He'd always wondered why such a pretty, seemingly bubbly girl was always so quiet; however, he couldn't really speak much about it considering how quiet he, himself, was. What he found most odd about today was seeing Reyna with other people. He usually saw her up in trees by herself observing things. Today was different. He could feel it, and it gave him a somewhat uneasy but excited feeling. He was ready for this day. Well, not entirely, but he'd like to think so anyway. He couldn't help his optimistic attitude.
