[namii]

Character(s): Yukine Suzumura & Arlette Yuen-Winchester
Time: 6PM
Location: 10D

Yukine turned her head left and right looking at the number plates on the doors as she walked past them, searching for her dorm. It had been a long day and after getting lost and walking all over campus, she would have liked to just sit down somewhere already.

The black-haired girl's face brightened as she found the right room, 10D. She shuffled through her messenger bag, searching for the key to the room that she had received at registration. She pulled out the small, gold object when she found it and pulled it out of the bag and inserted it into the key hole, unlocking the door.

The light flickered on when Yukine flipped the switch as she entered the room. Her roommate hadn't arrived yet. She walked over to one of the desks and pulled the messenger bag over her head and dropped it on the desktop. Lifting her suitcase up and resting it next to the bag, she sat down on the seat that went with the desk and sighed.

"So this is where I'll be living for the rest of the year..." She mumbled quietly to herself, glancing around the room.

"I wonder what my roommate's like...?"[/i] Yukine then thought, as she leaned back into the chair. All she knew about the girl was her name, Arlette Yuen-Winchester, which made the girl wonder if she was a foreigner since her last name wasn't Japanese. Either way, she hoped the girl was nice at least since they would be living together.

In the warm glow of the light in the corridor, Arlette looked at the piece of paper in her hand once more. In black text, it read, "Room 10D: Arlette Yuen-Winchester and Yukine Suzumura."

"Su-zu-mu-ra," Arlette said to herself as she walked past rooms, checking the numbers on the rooms of each side. She walked with her hands in her pockets, key in hand and a black tote bag over her arm. "Yukine Suzu-mura," she repeated, and wondered if her pronounciation would sound strange to her roommate.

Then on her right came a room with a plaque pronouncing '10D'.

'Here we go,' Arlette whispered as she pushed the door open, and was surprised to find it was already open. Stepping inside, the lights had already been turned on and there was a Japanese girl by the desk. "Uh, hi. I'm Arlette... you're Yukine Suzumura?"

Arlette had her fair share of roommates -be it whether they were unbearable and slightly unnerving, or warm and friendly. Looking at the girl, Arlette just hoped they would get along.

Yukine's head shot towards the door at the sound of it opening slightly startled by it and noticed a girl walk in. The first thing the timid girl noticed was that she was foreign, in which she quickly inwardly scolded herself for it considering that it was pretty rude of her. She assumed the girl was her new roommate.

"Uh, hi. I'm Arlette... you're Yukine Suzumura?" Arlette spoke, introducing herself while standing by the door. What she had said had confirmed the girl's assumptions that she was her new roommate. Yukine quickly stood and bowed before returning her head to look at Arlette.

"U-um... H-Hello...! Y-yes, I'm Yukine..." She began nervously, fidgeting slightly. "I-It's nice to meet you, Arlette." Yukine continued before giving the girl a small, friendly, or at least she hoped it looked friendly, smile.

She quickly dropped her sight of vision to the floor. Yukine was a bit tense. She wanted to get along well with the other girl since they were going to be roommates but socializing wasn't really her forte. "C-c'mon, Yukine. First impressions are everything!" She thought to herself as she racked her brain for a topic to bring up before realizing that they hadn't said anything about their majors or year yet.

"U-uh... I-I'm a first year, singing major... W-what about you, Arlette...?" Yukine asked, looking back up to Arlette nervously as she waited for her reply.

(OMG JEEZ I AM SO SORRY I THOUGHT YOU DIDNT REPLY AND I DIDNT REALISE UNTIL I LOOKED OVER SOME OF THE THREADS I AM SO SO SORRY ;O;)

"I-It's nice to meet you, Arlette." The girl who appeared to be Yukine, her room mate, gave her a small and what-Arlette-hoped-to-be-happy smile. For a moment, the room mate had averted her gaze to the floor, but then perked up again as Arlette walked further into the room, looking around. "U-uh... I-I'm a first year, singing major... W-what about you, Arlette...?

"Oh?" Arlette smiled a little, "so a singing major, I see. Well, I'm an acting major." She paused and tried to take in everything about her new living quarters. "Do you play an instrument since you sing, or anything?" Arlette asked, not noticing any instrument or its case within sight, and also hoped this would somewhat break the ice.
