Snippet #2005265

Rei quietly listened to the boy talk, trying to gather information about what they both have said thus far. However, one of his last sentences triggered her thoughts. "Huh?" Her voice, muffled as it may be, seemed to be empty with the broken analyses. His perspective was off from what she was thinking, and it almost seemed her words had slightly riled him. The same words rolled through her head a couple times as she watched him walk away. He is Human? To her, it made a bit of sense now. He seemed somewhat protective of the human ideals. And here, in the midst of non-human races, it was probably to be expected.

"I wonder if he thinks I was trying to be rude.." Rei spoke as she pushed herself up off the ground. "Though it is probably for the best if he does." She waited in the archway for a little while longer, just enough for the boy to disappear from view. Confirming the loss, she began walking for the female dormitory. Every now and again looking back to her small piece of paper. It was an excuse to get away from everyone else. Since it was the first day, maybe they would even be a little lenient on those who show up to class a little late as well.

It did not take any needless searching through the dormitories, being such a convenient number. Leaving the door slightly cracked, she walked further into the room to have a decent look around. The room was plain, something that was already gnawing at her. With plainness came self expression, with that she would learn more about her roommate, and that, would lead to them forming some kind of bond. A whine came from her throat as she thought about it. "Why couldn't it be so packed that nothing else could fit in here!?" There was going to be an awkward situation on the horizon, she knew it. If only half the room is decorated, it would lead to questions of why she kept it plain. "Please tell me she is a punk, please tell me she is a punk." She was honestly hoping that her roommate would be a pureblood, or one that would not pay her any special attention, neglecting her at all times.

However, with a little more looking around the room, she came across a note. Every line she read made her read it slower, hopes slowly being crushed from kindness. Dropping her arms lazily to her side she stared at the left bed. Quietly just staring at it, thinking how this may play out. This girl seemed far to kind in the note, just how long could Rei keep away from some kind of friendship or understanding? Then maybe they would even start hanging out. But come the next year, if they were not roommates again, would this girl even bother talking to her?

Rei quickly turned around, and collapsed on the bed on her side of the room, already burying her face in the pillow. "Please hate misfits, Heather Parker..."
