User ImageDeciding to head to the library, Ivy entered the building again, coming into a lobby where various people were milling about. It was at this point that she realised that she had no idea where the library was, and so she stood for a moment, looking around. Hopefully (that is, in Ivy's little fantasy world) a random sign would juts pop up out of nowhere, pointing her in the right direction. Unfortunately, no such sign appeared and so she was forced to consider the last resort- ask someone where the damn thing was.

She shuddered internally at the thought. People were just so... complicated. She never could tell what anyone in real life was thinking, and she never knew if they would suddenly turn out to be mean or malicious. it was a real puzzle to work out real people. And that is why Ivy shrank into her books so much. Characters in books were generally more straightforward, and Ivy loved to be able to know what someone in a novel was thinking just from the way the books was written.

And so it was with some trepidation that she attempted to work up the courage to ask someone where the library was. Just as she was about to ask a surly-looking guy over in the corner, another person came walking into the lobby. Or rather, another person came dancing in. She had long, untidy, but relaxed-looking red hair and was grinning around at everyone.

From past experience, Ivy knew that it was normally best to approach someone obviously cheerful and outgoing as opposed to someone silent and grumpy-looking, and so she stopped, thought for a moment and then wandered over to the girl who'd just bounded in.

"Umm... excuse me..." Ivy asked her in a small voice. "But... umm... could you tell me where the library is?"

Damien had been so absorbed in his music he hadn't noticed Bella enter. He plugged his guitar into an one of the music rooms amps. Through his headphones the song 10 Years Today by Bullet for My Valentine came on. And immediately with the song he began to play. He had memorized this song down to the last note. So as the song went he played with his guitar to it, matching it up perfectly. He loved this song, which was why he had no problems memorizing it.

This went on for a good four minutes before the song ended and he stopped. He let out a sigh and reached into his pocket to hit stop on his iPod. He slouched back in the couch with his eyes closed, "Hmm.."

I feel my world shake

Adrian smiled and looked over at Emmy ”Everyone is here for music because…Its…The words of your soul..If you catch my drift. Like why do you think so many song writers and musicians confess their love to people through music? I think that life without music is a mistake, and its very comforting to know that there are so many other people here who seem to think the same thing.” Adrian was very passionate about his music, or just music in general. All except for rap, personally he thought rap needed to go die in a corner somewhere.
Adrian laughed a little when Emmy listened off all the sports he played, and the fact that he played the piano interested him ”You should go talk to Bella sometime, she loves the piano..So you’re a sports guy? I never ever play sport, to tell you the truth I suck at them. I can’t tell the difference from a touchdown and slam-dunk.” Adrian laughs and places his hands behind his head.
Although his eye was starting to bother him, he was trying to keep in good spirits. ”No thanks..Not even the strongest medication will help..I just have to get used to the headaches. The doctor said that the bleach that blinded my eye damaged some nerves in there and they fire off randomly at times causing headaches..I just have to keep my eye closed and they tend to go away. Thanks for being so concerned, Emmy.” He opened his eyes and smiled over at the younger boy.

Man! Everyone was so down this morning... She twisted the silver chain around her neck when suddenly a very quiet voice slipped into her ears, and she turned to see a girl with black hair. "You have to speak louder if you wanna be heard!" She hummed, but thought a little. "Library, library... This is my first year here, but I'm pretty sure I know where it is! And besides, I wanna take some book shots so I think I'll come with you." Madi was kind of impulsive at times.

Taking the girl's hand, she lead her into the hallway, where she let the other's long hand fall so that she could lead. "So! I'm Madi, I'm majoring in photography here. Whadda 'bout you? If you say music, I'll 'splode. That's what everyone here is doing! It's intense."



Back to the street where we b e g a n
Feeling as good as lovers can, you know
Yeah we're feeling so good

Picking up things we shouldn't read
It looks like the end of history as we know
It's just the end of the world

Bella was a little taken back by his playing because she hadn‘t been expecting it and it was really good, not only that it was one of her favorite songs to ”Wow…That was good…That was as good if not better than any other cover I‘ve heard…” Bella just sat there and watched him, he seemed to be in his own little world. She didn’t mind though, maybe he would play again. She picked up her book again, and decided to keep reading and not bother him.
After a while she got out her notebook and began to write down the notes to her new song. She loved writing music, it was a way to release her feelings. She thought about getting out her guitar and playing a really easy song, but she loved to play it. Bella decided against it though because she could tell just by looking at him that Damien was in a foul mood or maybe he was just absorbed in his music. Bella didn’t know him to well so that might be it but she didn’t want to test that subject, seeing as Damien was six foot four and she was only five seven, and he was also a good two years older than her.

Bella had finished writing her piano piece, and she couldn’t wait to test it out but she still didn’t want to bother Damien while he was working..Or whatever he was doing. She still couldn’t tell if he was upset or just really into his ipod. She just sat there patiently and waited for him to either say ’Go Ahead’ or just give her an evil glare which she imagined he was good at. She laughed softly as she made a joke in her head, and she leaned back and closed her eyes letting her thoughts take her away while she waited. Bella had never been good at waiting, so soon she had grown tired of it but still she thought it would be better if she didn't bug him. He looked so serious, and upset. Just that look was enough to keep her waiting for a while longer

Okay, Emmunal was totally not ready for some insight into Adrian's soul there with his deep words of what music is. He smiled a little, and he looked to his hands. "I'm not very talented at a lot... I would never be able to write a song.." He let out a soft little sigh to himself before glancing up. It was quite obvious that he was very self conscious, and he gave him a little smile, the best he could muster at the moment.

He bit his lip and glanced up to him, blinking a little as he talked about that Bella girl again. HE didn't think he'd talk to her; she was kind of loud for his taste, but he guessed lots of people were loud, and he'd have to deal. His town had been very quiet, though.. "Not really a sports guy. I'm not really good at it.." He had stopped juggling to glance to him, a slightly worried gloss across his warm brown eyes.

"Are you positive?" He asked, and looked to his feet as the other thanked him for being worried. "How can I not? It's inhuman to ignore someone else's pain." Not really - people did it all the time in this world, this horrible place... But Emmy was sheltered, didn't know that. "Does sunlight hurt it? I can close the blinds.." He offered, picking up Phodius and setting him on Adrian's bed so that he didn't step on him if he went over to close the blinds.

He wondered why the other had spoken of bleach, yet he wouldn't prod. He wasn't one to be particularly pressing... even if he really was curious a lot, he never asked too many questions. Silence was the best observer; that's what his mother had drilled into him.






And there’s never any rain, when you want it...


A hollow little game, and you’ve won it...


Looking for a thrill but you’ve done it all...


So long, put your blue jeans back on girl.

User ImageIvy raised her eyebrows at the impulsiveness and whimsicality of the girl, but allowed herself to be led along and down a corridor. Blinking, she tilted her head to one side and tugged her bag back onto her shoulder from where it was beginning to slip off and replied, "Oh... umm... I'm majoring in English and creative writing... Is everyone here really doing music?"

She wondered how Madi already knew so much, considering how she's only just come to the school yesterday too. Ivy herself knew nothing. But then, they were entirely different personalities, and that was clear from the outset.

"I'm Ivy, by the way," she added. "Ivy Robinson..."

Damien had been sitting there zoned out until he heard someone speak. He didn't quite make out what was said but his eyes shifted to see Bella sitting and writing something. He set his guitar on the couch before looking over at her. He didn't say anything at first, choosing to wonder what she was writing. His mind didn't wander very long before he spoke up. "How long have you been here?.." his voice was a lot duller than his usual sarcastic tone.

He then began to get curious, had she heard him play? Had she liked it? Then his thoughts to her musical talent, she could play the piano. He wanted to ask her what else she could play but he would wait for an answer to his previous question. His mind started going over the idea of a band, if he started one he could use Bella. But he'd still need at least two to three more people.

Bella was jolted back into reality when Damien spoke to her ”A while..I liked your playing by the way you‘re very very talented, that was also one of my favorite songs.” She grins slightly and tucks her journal away into her guitar case, before she put it away though she had torn out her piano piece. ”Don‘t worry I‘m not stalking you or anything..I just saw that you were really into your music and I didn‘t want to bother you.” She smiled slightly, seeing him so down had her a little worried. Even though he was just an acquaintance, she was still worried.

Bella stood up and stretched, she straightened out her ‘Music Is My Boyfriend‘ shirt, and her skinny jeans before walking over to him. Then she noticed he didn‘t have any music with him, ”You memorized that song?? Wow…That couldn‘t have been easy.” Bella wasn‘t just saying that either, he seemed to be very dedicated to his music and very passionate about it. Bella began to play. A large smile came upon her face, when he sounded exactly like it did in her head.

Damien was a bit taken back by her compliment. "Thanks..I'm glad you liked it.." He stood up and yawned a little. He swept the hood off his head and looked over at her. His dark eye looked over her a few times before his head turned. Perverted thoughts couldn't seem to find their way into his head today. He shrugged it off and walked over to her, watching her play. She was good, that much was certain.

He reached into his pocket and drew out his flask. As soon as he unscrewed it the smell of alcohol resonated from it. He took a quick swig before screwing it back on and slipping it into his pocket. The slight buzz helped keep his mind focused, and helped blur his memories. "Your good.." a small grin spread over his lips, it stayed hidden behind his hair.

"Haaaaah, another year!" Hei Ryung Yu smiled as she pranced into her new dorm after unlocking the door. She was totally looking forward to having yet another new roomie this year. She tried to never keep the same dorm, even when the semester changed. Dumping her stuff on the bed across the room from the one apparently occupied, she brushed some dust from the dresser and placed her giant rabbit plushie on it. Rabbits were honestly her favourite animals, and she didn't care who knew. Heck, she wore hoodies with rabbit ears on them all the time. She had several hats with rabbit ears on them, and even had three headbands with rabbit ears. Hei was a rabbit fanatic.
Smiling widely, she unpacked all her clothes into the dresser. Rather, she stuffed them into drawers randomly. Organization was not one of Hei's key personality traits. Once done, she changed her clothes randomly. Hei did that a lot. Putting on her favourite first-day outfit, she hummed along to music in her head. Finally, she was dressed. Stuffing her hair into low pigtails she left the dorm, not bothering to lock the door. She skipped down the hallway, out of the dorm building, and into the classroom building. She felt like listening to random people in the music room like she always did. Giggling softly, she quietly opened the door to the music room. All hell broke loose when Hei noticed two people in the room. She'd never seen them before. Wow, one had pink hair! Nifty! The other looked like someone had splashed blonde on part of her head, and that was just sweet. Since Hei hadn't seen them before, they must be freshmen. She greeted them accordingly. "Hi! You guys must be freshmen! I'm Hei Ryung Yu, and I'm a sophmore! I heard music playing and figured I'd listen in. What are you guys majoring in? I'm doing applied arts and computer technology." She concluded with a massive grin each to the boy and the girl.

ayame laughed as samson entered the room. he stuttered a bit, and she gave him a sympathetic smile. she understood what it was like to be shy and stuff, she had several friends who were so. heck, she considered samson her friend now. grinning, she pushed herself forward and gave him a big hug before putting a hand on his shoulder for support.

"eggos with syrup and mustard sounds amazing. i bet demetri ordered me too, eh?"

she laughed as she said it. hey, she'd mentally ordered him, so maybe he'd ordered her. that was totally something she would do. maybe demetri was the same way. man that would be awesome. she grinned as they left her room. her neck didn't hurt so bad today, but it was still really incredibly sore. at least it didn't feel like it was exploding internally anymore.

koido laughed and nudged his new friend with his shoulder. she was really playful, even in the morning. morning made koido groggy and tired, especially after breakfast. he usually skipped breakfast, but he had hardly eaten the day before and his stomach did not like that. it had demanded food. he sent jesse a flirtatious smile before responding.

"then maybe i'll change my plans to involve hanging out with a certain redhead with a camera. originally they involved you, but i think the camera-holding redhead would be more fun, don't you?"

he joked right back at her. he had figured out quickly that she'd been describing him, so he'd describe her in his own way. he liked the way she used 'ultra to the max' to describe him. it made him all happy and macho and manlike inside. to an outsider that might seem a weird way to feel, but that was the kind of feeling that made koido more confident.

Sam chuckled softly before replying, "Well, we don't have any mustard, s-so, you'll have to deal with second best- syrup. A-and of course, he ordered you." Sam slowed his pace to hers, and helped her tottle along.He crouched a little as they walked four rooms down the hall, in a small attempt to make it a bit easier for her. With a spin of the knob, they entered Demetri's room. Getting her to him, he pulled his best French accent and announced, "Ze lazy has arrived, mon ami. Eat up whizle zhe cannot run azay." With that, he pulled out the requested Eggos and plates and piled a stack on one sticking it into the microwave. He hit a few random numbers and the machine beeped it's acknowledgement.

So if you want to b e with me
With these things there’s no telling
We just have to w a i t and see
But I’d rather be working for a paycheck
Than waiting to w i n the lottery
Besides, maybe this time is d i f f e r e n t
I mean I really think you like me

Jesse acted as if she was shocked. The redhead's hand flew up to her mouth as she gasped, and exclaimed, "What? Going to ditch me for some photographer? Oh darn. I knew there was somebody else. But as I don't see a redhead with a camera at the moment, I suggest you call her and let her know. After all, she could have plans. Then you'd be stuck with little old me, and of course, you'd have to deal with that guy I'm hanging out with today. Might get jealous, you know. He's got a little somethin' somethin' going on." She winked as she said this, as if it had a secret meaning to it. Picking up the container of half eaten fruit, she turned around in search of a trash can. Seeing one not too far away, the female said softly, "She shoots-" and threw it towards that direction. "And she scores! The crowd goes wild." The youngest Leong child redirected her attention to Koi. She gave him a teasing grin as she waited for his response.



It's not always rainbows and butterflies
It's compromise that moves us along, yeah
My heart is full and my door's always open
You can come anytime you want
