Action, On a Sunday

[sun_sun]

[New school! Living on her own! A new and no doubt bizarre world to discover.

After finishing up registration, dropping her stuff off in her (at the time empty) new room, and bidding farewell to her parents, Annie heads out into the bright, shining outdoors (okay, it's 56 degrees and cloudy) to explore her beautiful new home.

No classes today, so there should be people hanging around campus, right? PRIORITY 1 MAKE FRIENDS, PRIORITY 2 TO BE DETERMINED LATER]

[So yeah, general exploratory first-day action mingle. Have at it.]

Why would they be everybody's problem?

[soundslikehighmay]

Well.

Because we don't want people getting sick?

[worldcup]

Oh, I see! Do you know where the dormitories are?

[worldcup]

Okay.

[ . . . ]

I saw your sister six years ago, by the way. She seemed like a nice person.

[soundslikehighmay]

It must be. Sometimes it says stuff in my head.

[He shrugs.]

Weather aside, it's way better than my local high school.

[sun_sun]

Dude, that's awesome! What are the odds?

[HIGH FIVE? Right after a handshake, at that, calm down Annie.]

[worldcup]

Maybe.

But we have a doctor.

[worldcup]

A castle? Really...? I wonder if it's as big as ours.

[partyhats]

Of course she i-...I'm impressed you can remember that far back.

[ Still not making any connections here. ]

[worldcup]

Really? It's just six years.

[inchesofevil]

Whoa, is it sentient? That's amazing! Does it get sensory information from you, too? See what you see and shit?

[pause. uhhh maybe...he is...nerding out a little too hard. don't creep the kid out, Duncan.] Sorry, I'm just, uh, really interested in...stuff...

...Anyway. I'm Doctor Jackson. [he shifts the umbrella around so he can offer a handshake] I run the infirmary.

[partyhats]

You're like - you're not ten years old are you?

[ Lissa blushes, slightly, even though how could she possibly guess that? ]

[worldcup]

Hmm... I don't really have to answer that, do I?

[partyhats]

It's rude to ask a lady her age, so I guess I won't.

[ Although she could be anything from 20 to 20000. ]

[soundslikehighmay]

It's...Yeah, I guess? I don't know how it sees.

[SUBJECT CHANGE THANK GOD.]

Why am I not surprised we have an actual doctor here? That must keep you busy.

[worldcup]

Exactly. ...Sooo let's have that tour!

[partyhats]

Lead the way, Illyasviel.

[worldcup]

Okay! Do you want to see the dorms first?

[partyhats]

I think that'd be a good idea, so I can, you know, live here.

[worldcup]

Okay. Do you know which dorm you're living in!

[partyhats]

Champy Hall, suite D!

[losingherhead]

[What. Yes okay. She pretends to know what she's doing and attempts this high five. She manages to hit the hand just right, so she thinks she's pulled it off right. Good job Celty. Mental self-high five.]

Maybe you have the power of extreme convenience.

[Joking? Not joking? Only she knows. The advantages of no head are revealed.]

[infinitejustice]

Yeah. I'd appreciate that. Thank you.

[Once she opens the door, he'll wheel the cart right on through.]

[inchesofevil]

Heh, sometimes.

So where was your local high school? Pretty safe bet it wasn't anywhere around here.

[infinitejustice]

Is this your first time living away from home? I've been going to boarding school all my life, so this is familiar territory to me.
