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.]

[Thomas was exploring the area, glancing between the map and his surroundings. It really does look like a nice school, but he's not sure if he would fit in.

Unfortunately, he's not paying close attention where he was walking as he buried his nose in the brochure for the 20th time today to memorize the locations before school starts]

[infinitejustice]

[There's a young man, about sixteen or so, pulling a cart full of luggage into Champy Hall. There's a couple of suitcases and several boxes that look like they probably contain electronics. It's by no means a small load, but he doesn't seem to be having too much trouble with it.]

[Annie, there is a black cat sitting on the wall and staring at you. Unknown to you, the cat is actually a person, who was hoping she'd be free to shift back to human form, but oh here's a new person who isn't in on all the weirdness yet, stupid school policies, blah blah blah.

How do you interact with the cat?]

[worldcup]

[ There's definitely a seemingly nine year old girl hanging around the courtyard at the school, looking for anybody - possibly new students? - that she can prey on. She looks rather out of place here, though that's not necessarily a bad thing.

But if she does spot someone, she'll beam rather cheerfully and head their way, waving.

At least she's being kind about it all, right? ]

[forgottenmagia]

...Illyasviel. [ said with a long-suffering sigh. Stop looking for fresh meat to bamboozle. ]

[worldcup]

What is it? [ There is a curious look in her eyes as she tilts her head to the side. ]

[forgottenmagia]

Kindly don't play dumb. The new students aren't here for your entertainment, you know.

[worldcup]

I know that much. [ She's not a prude. ] I was planning on making friends with some of them.

[ At least Illya doesn't have a track record of being a little shit. She just uses words to mess with people's heads!! ]

[forgottenmagia]

[ frooooowning ]

I'd be more inclined to believe you if you didn't say that with such a mischievous smile on your face.

[duckduckdeux]

[ Man, Duck is just so excited to be here! And with lots of other new people coming innnn...!

Hey, look, there's one now! ]

Hello! Are you new? [ Without the slightest pause to even give him the chance to begin to answer- ] Wow, that's a lot of stuff! Is it all yours? What do you need it all for?

[losingherhead]

[Celty finds herself walking about campus. She's still finding herself getting used to being out and about in the sun, even all these years after joining the school. She can see why people enjoy it so much. The feeling of the sun on your back, the soft breeze... its nice.

Granted, there's more breeze than sun today. But there's still a lot of people out and about and Celty liked to see the excited faces of new students.

On a whim, she heads to a random spot near the sidewalk with her motorcycle and starts to polish it. Her loyal horse didn't need polishing, but she felt he deserved it. He didn't get to ride as much in the old days and it was good to let him know he was still appreciated.

Clearly this will help with her image.]

[partyhats]

[ Lissa waves back!

...this small child is waving at her right? Right. Must be someone's little sister seeing them off or something? Maybe? ]

Hey there kid, what's up?

[wheretheresacrop]

[When Annie eventually returns to her dorm room, she'll see another girl--with pale blue hair and a riding crop in her hand--sitting on the other bed.

She's smacking that riding crop against the palm of her hand.]

Annabelle Cino. It seems that you are my replacement roomate this semester.

[sun_sun]

[Yeah, she's just gonna roll on in like a boss and peek over his shoulder.]

You'll probably get a better feel for where everything is if you just walk around a bit.

[sun_sun]

Yo! Want a hand with that?

[He looks like he's got it but HEY, excuse to start conversations with strangers.]

[sun_sun]

[By picking up an erstwhile branch and waving one end of it around the cat's field of vision.]

Heeeere kitty!

[sun_sun]

[COOL STRANGER WITH MOTORCYCLE, how can she not get involved?]

Hey, you don't know me or anything but that bike is totally sweet.

[sun_sun]

[Well

That sure is a way to make a firstimpression]

Uh.

Are you gonna hit me with that thing?

[wheretheresacrop]

Are you going to give me a reason?

[You haven't yet.]

I am Franziska von Karma, daughter of Manfred of von Karma.

[sun_sun]

[I wonder if you can request room reassignments.....]

Wow, uh, hi. I'm... I guess you already know who I am. Just Annie is fine, though...

[soundslikehighmay]

[Not many people are bundled up in heavy jackets here. Which is totally insane because jebus, 56 degrees? AND it's lightly drizzling totally raining! Jaime reflects on how this state is wack as he pulls his hood up and hunches his shoulders against the breeze before setting out to figure out where all his classes are this semester.]

[losingherhead]

[The helmet where clearly her head is located glances up in surprise. Oh hey, a new student. She glances down at her arm, where she pulls out a little PDA. She types quickly into it before lifting it up to Annie.]

Thanks! He's my pride and joy.

[sage_of_aspio]

[On one hand, the cat looks kind of annoyed that you'd do the whole branch thing. On the other, one paw is batting at it. One thing Rita had learned from a young age, was that form begat function, and when she was a cat, letting instinct guide her until intellect knew better was a better choice.] Nya.

[worldcup]

[ Illya lets out a sigh, folding her arms over her chest. ]

Don't worry, I won't hurt them.

[worldcup]

You're a new student, right? [ Her voice is idly curious as she leans in a little closer, a cheeky smile on her lips. ]

It's nice to meet you. [ She lets a polite curtsy, bowing. ] My name is Illyasviel von Einzbern. What's your name, onee-chan?
