OOC: Just gonna leave this here for the time being. AJKline Accepted, welcome. You can move him in to dorm 207 right away. Don't forget to create a schedule for him in the main forum! New term = new profile. Probably going to draw it Saturday so look forward to it! BIC: Markus set his luggage down with a sigh. His room was still the same but Jack had moved out leaving bare walls and a dusty floor. Although they had never hung out much Markus couldn't help but feel a little lonely. His manservant walked in with the rest of the luggage, breaking Markus from his thoughts. "Ah yes, set it there" said Markus absentmindedly, waving the servant to the far corner. The floor shook slightly as the servant set the largest trunk on the floor with a thud. That'll be the coats thought Markus and he turned to walk out of his room. "Will that be all milord?" asked the servant, stopping Markus in his tracks. "Yes.....yes thank you that will be all" replied Markus. The servant bowed and walked out of the room behind him. "Oh yes, one more thing milord if you do not mind!" Markus turned around, giving the servant an empty stare. The servant bowed apologetically. "I apologize for not alerting your lordship sooner but your fiance, Princess Ashford, will be arriving this evening." Markus sighed wearily and nodded. He walked to a window and folded his hands behind his back to stare out over the grounds. The servant bowed out of the room, leaving Markus to brood. " His lordship must be weary from the carriage ride" thought the servant as he closed the door.

Things were progressing too quickly back home for Markus' taste. His castle was nearing completion, his bride had been chosen, his father was pressuring him to take up Durin (magic), his mother's health was failing, and his brother was still an a**. To top it all off, Markus was also having trouble sleeping. Every night he tossed and turned, filled with a mysterious energy and a desire to do....something, anything to while away the nightly hours. Strangely enough, as Markus viewed his reflection in the window, he was not suffering from sleep deprivation, far from it in fact. It was like he no longer required sleep to function. He felt a chill run down his spine. "Just what am I becoming?!"
At that moment he heard a knock on the door.
Markus composed himself but remained by the window. "The door is open. Please let yourself in." In the hallway, Meredy's heart was threatening to explode out of her chest. She slowly turned the handle with a trembling hand and opened the door.
Her fiance stood a mere few feet away by a window, the last rays of sunlight making his golden hair glow. And so it was that Meredy's first impression of Markus was that she had met an angel. Then her angel moved away from the window and she felt a chill enter the room. Her angel seemed to be followed by a dark shadow. Markus on the other hand was utterly confused and clearly showed it.
Both stood still in the room not saying a word. "May I....may I help you? asked Markus, his voice carrying a note of concern. "Ah! Well...that is to say I....umm" Meredy stammered, struggling to compose herself. "You look new here. Are you lost? Are you looking for someone?" Markus prodded. "I-I was looking but I'm okay thank you" replied Meredy, now blushing slightly. Markus raised an eyebrow but remained silent.
Meredy closed her eyes and took a deep breath to calm down. She withdrew a note from her pocket and opened it. A picture fell to the floor that Markus recognized. It was a picture of him. "Is your name Markus Cynder?" asked Meredy. For some reason Markus felt his heart rate increase. His mouth suddenly went dry, robbing him of speech so he nodded. "My name is Meredy Ashford. I am your fiance." Meredy walked to the dumbfounded Markus and handed him the note. "We're to be married in Spring" she said softly.
Markus took the note and examined it. Inside were the details concerning their engagement and the wedding. "Spring is a little soon don't you think?" he said then quickly moved away from Meredy to put some distance between them. "Ah....well....lesseehere" Markus tried to say something but the words just wouldn't come. He turned to the window where the moon was just beginning to rise above the grounds. Markus clapped his hands and spun back around. "Tell you what. Why don't we go to dinner? The school is throwing a welcome banquet for us. Let's start from square one and pretend we aren't supposed to be married in less than a year." Meredy nodded slowly, wondering what a "square one" was but glad to be rid of the awkward atmosphere.

Markus sniffed irritably as he walked into the room. It smells like a hospital in here he grumbled. He spotted his roommate asleep on the bed. "I guess I'll introduce myself later..." Markus strolled into his room and shut the door. His room was finally free of boxes though it still smelled faintly of cardboard. There was a note for him on the bedside table from his brother, Titus. "Probably more of his usual bulls**t. He's never given any thought in his letters."Figuring he may as well get it out of the way, Markus sat down and opened the letter. It was a surprisingly long letter for Titus but it only made Markus more irritated when he finished. "I'm already at school! Why do I need a private tutor?!" Markus threw the letter across his room and stomped to his closet to hang his clothes, muttering curses the entire time. Now stripped to his boxers, he threw his bedsheets open and almost threw himself into bed. "I don't need these headaches before classes!" He switched off the light and closed his eyes. But sleep never came. Markus spent the night staring at the ceiling and was up well before dawn. He turned on a desk lamp and picked out a book from his shelf to read until it was time for breakfast.

Kimberley ✣ Kern  Kimberley sat up in bed and peered shortsightedly at his alarm clock. "Oh no! I've been asleep for hours.Time I wasn't here." He quickly looked around the room,the only illumination came from the desk lamp. Kimberley noticed that he's got company and thought the man that was reading a book must be his roommate,he rose to his feet and went to the bathroom to comb his hair , wash his face and brush his teeth. Kimberley put on some clean drawers and carefully wore his neatly pressed clothes, after freshening up he strolled against the room and turned to face his companion. "Good day to you Sir",and he gave him a stiff bow.

Markus emerged from his room dressed in his usual shirt and vest. He stepped out of his room, shivered, then walked back in to grab a set of robes. "Ah, hello" he replied. "No need for formalities, we're room-mates. The name's Markus Cynder and you are?"

Kimberley ✣ Kern  Kimberley sat on the edge of his bed. "I'm Kimberley Kern, but you can call me whatever you want." He then smoothed his pants and looked at him. "Nice to meet you sir---- I mean Markus Cynder". Kimberley walked up and paced the room to look for his sanitizer.

"Right, Kimberly it is then" replied Markus. "Where do you hail from? My country is named Millennius. My home is part of a network of several other countries so it's referred to as a province. You probably haven't heard of Millennius since it's part of a world separate from Earth. I believe my world is translated 'Telmaro' in English."
Markus donned the robe and fastened the neck clasp so he could wear the garment like a cloak instead of a robe. He checked his reflection in the mirror briefly, pleased with his ensemble.

Kimberley ✣ Kern  Kimberley shifted his position and rested his ankle on his knee. "I came from Czepolany, It is between the borders of the Czech Republic,Poland,and Germany.It is a really small country". He forked his hand to his hair. "I really miss my country, how about you?"
