fandomhighdorms | Second floor common room- Wednesday evening

Rey was starting to be sorry that she'd started ticking off the days on her wall, because it was already starting to be too much. But she didn't dare stop, so that she could add them to her total when she did get home. She wasn't even considering that she might not, but she was coming to the realization that she might have to be here longer than she wanted. And sure, everyone was nice and no one had tried to steal anything from her yet and there were Jedi here and she was sure the snow would be pretty if she could ever get over being cold, but still. She had to get a job, and then she could get proper clothing, and eat regularly.

For now, she was ducking into the common room to see if there was anything unlabeled in the kitchen that she didn't think anyone would particularly miss. And she might have actually gotten somewhere with that, but then the pizza delivery guy had shown up, dropped off three boxes even when Rey insisted that she didn't order anything and didn't have any money, and then left.

Sooooo, now there was free pizza in the common room. Though Rey was still trying to sneak a piece in case anyone had ordered it. She was hungry, all right?

"I think I needed to hear that," Rey realized. "Where are you from?"

"Another Earth. But I was born on a distant planet called Sakaar," Skaar said. Figure out where he got his name. "It's not like this planet at all."

"Do you miss it?" Asking for a friend.

"Sakaar was pain, torment, and anger. It was dying when I was born, and then I sealed its destruction by the hand of the Devourer of Worlds as part of a tantrum," Skaar said. "So, no."

Rey stared at him, partly trying to figure out if he was being serious.

"If this is true, your life is much more interesting than mine," she finally said.

"I was born in lava," Skaar said.

His life was dramatic.

"...Oh, is that all," she said dryly. "Seriously?"

"My life only gets more dramatic from there with various prophecies, lost twin brothers, and attempted patricide," Skaar said. "It's extremely complicated."

"Maybe you being sent here wasn't a bad thing," Rey said. "At the very least it should be a good break."

"Things have been fairly normal for a while. Aside from the Dark Avengers almost ending the world. And the mind control on the pocket universe Earth," Skaar said. "But I should learn more if I'm going to be a leader in the prehistoric land I consider home."

He fought dinosaurs daily when he was there.

Oh, so much staring. She could go days without actually talking to someone; she had no idea what to do with all that.

"That would probably help, yes."
