001 Ⓐ lobby

[sharp]

[ Enter the lobby and you'll find yourself a redhead, rubbing the back of her neck as she looks at the directory. What was she doing here? Amy was blaming this on the Doctor; somehow this had to be his fault. One way or another. How else would she end up back in school? Ugh. Wasn't she done with this?

Don't get her wrong. She was all about new planets, but she was promised Rio. Or at least some beachy, Rio-like planet. ]

I won't get marked off too much if I skip my first day, yeah? Probably just give me a warning - since, you know, I'm new and all.

[ She's debating with herself because she really doesn't feel like going anywhere. Especially class. But, she wouldn't mind seeing what other sort of places there were besides classrooms. Just a bit of research in case she wants to play hooky gets lost later. ]

I should get myself sorted first anyway. Hang on. What's a... Quad?

[ She jumps not expecting anyone to be listening to her. Even though she was being quite loud about her thoughts. ]

Oh. What? Sorry. Didn't hear anybody coming. But you said a courtyard, yeah? Why not just call it a courtyard? Is there anything special about it?

[busies.livejournal.com]

Ah, it's okay. I'm sorry for sneaking up on you.

[He gives a small bow following his apology.]

I don't think there is. Maybe it's called a Quad because it was shorter to write on the directory.

[sharp]

[ Whoa. Little boy bowing to her. Was everybody here going to be this formal? ]

Oh, no, it's fine. Don't worry yourself.

[ Then he makes her chuckle. ]

Suppose you gotta point there. Quad does make it sound cooler. Much more mysterious, you know?

[busies.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure about the mysterious part.

[But it's a fun thought.]

Are you new around here?

[sharp]

Yeah. What gave me away? [ She's joking with him. ]

I'm Amy.

[busies.livejournal.com]

Asking what a quad was would do it.

[He laughs softly. Probably the quickest straight-face to laugh, yet!]

Nice to meet you, miss Amy. I'm Ken Amada.

[sharp]

Yeah, most definitely.

[ She laughs back. ]

Likewise, Ken. Sooo, where are you off to?

[busies.livejournal.com]

I was on my way back to the dorms to get some rest.

[sharp]

Oh! Sorry. Don't let me stop you if you need to get going.

[busies.livejournal.com]

It's alright. I don't need to be there in any hurry.

[sharp]

Yeah? [ Good, because she still has a few questions. ] Okay. So, this place, have most people been here for a while?

[busies.livejournal.com]

[He figured as much.]

Depends on what you mean by "a while". I've only been here about two weeks, but one of my upper-classmates has been here a few months.

[sharp]

Hm. So, no one's actually from here? I mean, you've all been brought here like I have?

[busies.livejournal.com]

No, I think there are some people who are originally from here.
