009 // dormitories [action, open]

[whiplashings.livejournal.com]

[Backdated to before the 'Home' event, during the last week of spring break]

[With her promotion, Quistis is required to relocate from her SeeD dormitory to the living area designated for the high-level officials located on the third floor. She had spend the past week packing up her modestly decorated dorm in preparation for the move, and now in the last week of Spring Break she's finally relocating everything.

And so here's Quistis with a rather heavy box in her arms as she waits for the elevator to arrive and open so she can take it to her new dorm. Feel free to help her out!]

[OOC: I think it's safe to assume that the dormitories for both genders share the same elevator and the wings simply diverge? If not, feel free to let me know mods!]

[This is Marco humming elevator music. OH LOOK! A woman in need with a box!] Need help with that Ma'am?

[Little does he realize there will be an army of Trepies killing him for this later.]

[Seeing Marco, Quistis gives a smile as she shifts the box in her arms. While usually she might have declined and insisted that she could manage herself, she had somehow accumulated several boxes of things since her arrival through Time Compression. And if she could save as many trips as she could between her old dorm to her new dormitory, that was definitely an added bonus in her book.

There is, however, a brief moment where she contemplates if she can even allow him onto the third floor; after all, it is reserved for only authorized personnel. But, seeing as he was helping her, she figures it will be no problem. So she gives a small nod to the taller male, her expression one of relief.]

Yes, please-- I would appreciate it.

[fierybluebird]

Of course. I'm your humble servant, at your service.

[He's a little curious about WHY the boxes, but he's not going to pry either. Well not beyond polite small talk.] Spring cleaning?

[whiplashings.livejournal.com]

Sort of-- I've been promoted, and so I have to move from the dormitories to the third floor.

[fierybluebird]

Oh! Congratulations, eh! [Small bow of respect.]

[whiplashings.livejournal.com]

[Quistis smiles before she gives a small nod of acknowledgment.]

Thank you. It was... unexpected, but a pleasant surprise.

[fierybluebird]

Still, you must be proud.

I'm guessing there's no party to go with it then?

[His crew always celebrates promotions, but then pirates will use any excuse.]

[whiplashings.livejournal.com]

Party? Oh, no-- celebrations have never been my thing. That's more Selphie's area of expertise...

[Her smile falters for the briefest of moments at the mention of her younger friend, but she quickly recovers.]

But yes, I admit I am pleased.

[fierybluebird]

Ah right. I remember the one she and Gakupo threw.

Congratulations either way.

Want some help? I'm really strong.

[Luki beams up at the Instructor and holds her arms out expectantly. She's been a good girl lately and not gotten caught breaking any school rules. She's even done a little more of her homework than usual.]

[Oh! Quistis looks from the box then down to Luki, a slightly skeptical expression on her face. The box was pretty heavy, but Luki seemed so willing to help that Quistis didn't want to disappoint her. So she eventually smiles, and carefully places the box into her arms.]

Thank you. Let me know if it's too heave for you, alright? I don't want you to hurt yourself.

[dangerousthings.livejournal.com]

[The box isn't light, but Luki's strength is just shy of superhuman, being able to keep up with adults in peak condition. Her mother, Dr. Angelica Einsturzen, made her that way.]

It's okay, Ms. Trepe. Even if I get hurt, I heal right away. It's like a lifelong regen spell!

[whiplashings.livejournal.com]

[Well, that's certainly one way to put it. Quistis gives Luki a small smile before reaching down to take up another box to carry.]

Are you enjoying your break?

[dangerousthings.livejournal.com]

Well, it's okay. I'd like to get in a really good fight sometime again.

[She giggles a little.]

I know people are supposed to try not to hurt their partner with training...but it's okay if I get better right away, isn't it? It's a silly rule if I'm not going to stay hurt for very long.
