Fourth Floor Common Room [Monday late afternoon]

Olive wasn't even feeling especially social or creative. But ever since her class that morning, she'd wanted cookies. And no, she was so not like, a gourmet cook at all, but she could buy refrigerated cookie dough with the best of them.

Shhh. She threw the packaging away and tossed the raw dough into a bowl so no one would know. She was sneaky. There was a batch of cooling chocolate-chip cookies resting on the counter already as she stared at the oven like it might produce state secrets or something. She'd turned on the television, for those who might not be super-into watching cookie dough rise, but she wasn't especially paying attention.

And no, she was not making these cookies for anyone but herself, regardless what certain parties might try to argue. But she'd share, probably. Unless you were obnoxious.

"Well," Yeul conceded, because she was easy like that, "perhaps you are right. Maybe it was even the island itself that first thought 'and a school will go here, in the shape of a castle' and then it found someone who would build it."

From what she'd heard of the island, that really did not seem so far-fetched.

Victor considered it, shrugged. He'd heard stranger things that turned out to be true. "Why not, right? I've never heard anything about the people who started the school. Maybe that's because they were just doing what the island said."

[pulseof_life]

"That would be rather exciting, if it were true," Yeul decided. "It rather adds to the mystery of the school, don't you think?"

"I am Yeul, by the way," she added. "I've seen you around before, but I don't believe we've talked previous to this."

[ultron_junior]

"I don't think we have," Victor agreed. "I'm Victor. I think you're in Mr. Starsmore's class with me."

[pulseof_life]

She nodded her agreement. "That's right," Yeul said. "I like his class, though I admit that I don't always feel like I understand where he's coming from with the topics."

[ultron_junior]

"Like, the introversion quiz?" Victor asked, trying to remember what Yeul had said. "It wasn't what I expected from the description, but it was kind of fun to talk about."

[pulseof_life]

"It was!" she agreed hastily. "I did not mean any insult to Professor Starsmore or his class. I am just finding it curious because some of the questions on the test tended to assume it was really a choice about whether I was around people or not, for instance, and I felt unsure about that one."

[ultron_junior]

"I can see that," Victor nodded slowly. "Like, if you live on your own you might not be able to run out and see people whenever you felt like it. Or if you had certain jobs, maybe."

Yeul smiled. "Exactly like that. At home, I travel a great deal where there are very few people but here, I am around a number of them and I don't find that I am either drained or energized by the interactions. It's interesting. Professor Starsmore mentioned that 'ambivert' might be a better term for me to use, even though I tested out as an introvert on the quiz."
