Early Wednesday Morning, around.

Although she slept like a perfect log, Sakurazaki always woke up early. It was a habit. It was training. She felt wonderfully rested, far more than she had felt in ages, although her body was still delightfully sore. Her shoulder blades itched. She had many serene dreams of flying.

She had fallen asleep in her clothes, and changed into the same outfit, although a clean set. She really only had two different outfits, and the plaid skirt and tie of the Mahora uniform drew less eyes than her hamaka and robes. She was really quite lucky they had let her have them, otherwise she would have nothing.

It was time for a morning walk to wake herself up and become aware of the day. It also helped that it could help her feel more at home with her surrroundings. Sakurazaki just walked, and existed, and felt surprisingly tranquil.

[[OOC: open, of course, to anyone. I only have an hour and a half before a work shift of DOOM!, but I wanted to get some creative energy out now]]

Paige occasionally gets up early herself, and this apparently is one of those days, she should be doing something productive, like moving the rest of her stuff out of her old room, but she isn't she's wandering around aimlessly.

"oh hey, you must be new right?" she say when she sees the girl.

"Hm?" Sakurazaki hears a voice, and turns her head to discover the source, and whether or not it's directed toward her. She finds Paige, glances slightly around to notice no one else really in the area, and has her answer. She attempts a small smile. "Yes, I am new. I'm Sakurazaki." There was a slight pause before she said her name; it seemed friendlier, yes, to say Setsuna, but she was still much too far from comfort in having anyone be so familiar with her yet.

"Pleased to meet you Sakurazaki, I'm Paige, guess you've already had the welcome to Fandom High talk from other students right? And heard all about the gremlins and zombies?" she asked

Sakurazaki blinked, standing slightly prostrate with her long arms dangling at her sides.

"No." How does someone miss talk like that? "I've only gotten the chance to meet one student so far, and we certainly didn't talk about gremlins and zombies..."

Why did she sound so surprised? Zombies and gremlins made for nothing more unusual than vampires, ghosts, and robots for classmates. For a fleeting second, Sakurazaki doubted Ojou-sama's plan to send her out around "normal" people.

Paige winced, "oh, sorry, I'd probably have broken it a little more gently if I'd known, it's the first thing most people mention, I just kinda assumed. It's not bad here though, I mean it's safe, pretty much." okay this probably wasn't filling her with confidence but Paige was trying.

"So who'd you meet?" she asked.

"Sao..." She stopped herself a moment, reversing it in her head. When in Rome... "Ranma Saotome. He's a new student as well, so he probably didn't know much about the gremlins and zombies, either." Her attention was not on her meetings; this Paige had provided a much more intriguing topic, and Sakurazaki wanted to get back to it. "What...do they do? The goblins and zombies, I mean. Just exist here, in some sort of cohabitation based on an established ettiquette? Or are they something that should be watched out for and guarded against?

"Gremlins," she corrected, "we don't have goblins, yet as for what they do well the gremlins bite you and send you bat shit crazy and the zombies try to kill you, so yeah not so much with the ettiquette, or manners. We also have vampires, witches and demons as students here, but they are safe and generally speaking pretty cool." she explained, not mentioning that she was one of the witches quite yet, although the way she's asked about the zombies suggested she was pretty open minded.

Sakurazaki shook her head slightly, in some sort of disbelief. But it wasn't disbelief for that catalogue of all-too-familiar catergory types. Demons. Nice.

"Any robots?" she asked, arching an eyebrow, noting the one gap in the laundry list.

Paige thought for a moment, "um we had a neon pink kleptomaniac bunny a while back, I think he was some sort of robot, but I'm not sure, other than that not that I know of."

The stoicism breaks there; she's not sure she can handle how easily it collapses around these people. She laughs, a burst of a guffaw, and hides her open mouth behind her hand. "Oh, that is amazing. It's going to be a very interesting summer..."

Shaking her head slightly, the sternness returns almost as quickly as it disappeared. "And how long have you been a part of this insanity, Paige-san?"

Paige grins back at her, "you have no idea!" she tells her. "I've been her since the beginning of the academic year, so eight months, which probably explains why I can now talk about zombies and klepto bunnies without batting an eyelid!"

Again, she smiles. "Meanwhile, I have no excuse. Where are you roomed, Paige-san? I'm curious to know if we'll see each other around campus often."

"Room 217, just moved in last night, well I've almost moved in at least, but I get around," she said before she realised how that sounded and facepalmed, "around the campus I mean, I walk about a lot, get bored with nothing to do." she may be rambling a little now.

"How about you?"

"I'm up in room 412. I like it; I still haven't gotten a chance to meet my roommate, as odd as that sounds, but I look forward to meeting her. I have no doubt that she'll be just as interesting as everyone else seems to be.

"You haven't met Lovegood-san yet, have you? I'm terribly curious about her."

"The name dosn't ring a bell, sorry, I"ll keep an eye out for her though" she said, "is Lovegood her first or last name?"

Sakurazaki winces, forgetting. "Sorry, it is her last name. Luna is her first name. She seems rather elusive...I'm guessing either ninja or ghost."

Paige smiled to show her it was okay, "another ninja huh? That could cool since the last one I met disappeared, I'll ask around for you though, I'm sure you'll find her eventually, the school and town itself isn't that big."

She nods. "I hope so. But, I'd better continue on. It was nice meeting you, Paige-san."

Paige smiles, "sure no problem, I'll see you around I expect and nice meeting you too."
