"Well, my day was pretty good, I had classes, read a book in the library for a couple hours, and ran into a few people. " He gave the girl a wink and continued his story. "Then when I got back to my room, I found it mummified in toilet paper. The only saving grace was that it was taco day, and I sure do love me some tacos."
Sanzo licked his lips and rubbed his belly. Obviously delighted with his dinner. He gave a grin and folded his hands on the table.
"However, you can't expect the future here for you to be the same as mine. I've been here two years now, and I found out that if you keep yourself out of trouble, the shocks don't come nearly as often. Do your homework. Teachers give you bonus credits for doing well in their class. But a teacher in this school WILL sentence you to 'detention' for too many ******** ups. If you thought 'admissions' was bad, you'll want to die in 'detention'."
As he spoke of detention his demenor became more serious. The playfulness had disappeared, and an expression of fear bleached the color from his face. Sanzo took a sip of juice and calmed his nerves. The color slowly returned and Sanzo continued.
"I was thinking about those 'stolen items' of yours. If you want something of yours back, you have to stay on good behavior. Keep your grades up, and your nose clean and you'll be ok."
He gave the girl a thumbs up and a wide smile. So wide, his eyes were squinting, appearing shut.

Ambichan The top of his first muffin gone, he shoved t away and began to pick at the other. This time he stared pointedly at the boy across from him, making no pains to hide it.
"You know, if you want a decent lunch instead of the crappy leftovers, you should get in here closer to noon. Around now it's mostly reheated slop til dinner." He placed a piece of muffing between his lips, his head tilted ever so slightly He waited for a second, then he decided that he'd answer. He looked up to and saw the other boy's face for the first time. Spikey hair, a matter-of-fact disposition, though a hint of a joker in his face. Michael didn't know how he did that, but he was certain that he was right... or at least close to it. He finaly spoke. "Well, excuse me, but I 'did' just wake up about two hours ago and I wanted to find my room and a desperately needed shower before I even thought about food. Really, those cots are just gross." He didn't know why he added that last little phrase. He lost all the forcefulness which he had in the statement.

Gwen laughed at his facial contortions. "Yeah, I went to the Dean's office to try and get it back...It was my lucky lighter...Oh! No it doesn't work..." she added when she saw the No-duh-you-didn't-get-it-back look on his face. "It's broken, but my brother gave it to be before he left for college, and it reminds me of him..." She finished her salad after giving him an odd look about the tacos

"What? Did I say something wrong? What was that look about? I'm just trying to help you out." Sanzo thought about it for a second and spoke again. "It was the taco thing, huh? Sorry, I just really love tacos. I don't know why I do. I think I'm one of the few people here who can stomach them on a consistant basis."
Sanzo gave the girl a slight grin. All this talk about tacos made him want more, but he knew one more and he could pop. He already ate ten, anymore and they'll have to wheel him back to his room.
"Well, if you have anymore questions let's hear them. Otherwise, I've gotta get back to my room. That mountain of homework never got taken care of. I spent all my time cleaning up with Cyn here."
He grabbed the boys shoulder and gave him a shake. It was like he was waking the boy up.
"Sometimes you find good people like Cyndir here. Honest, fun loving, and a little on the cute side. It's just sometimes the assholes outnumber the good ones."

Reiku arched a brow as he popped another piece of muffin in his mouth. He took a moment to chew it up before speaking again.
"Don't get testy with me, newbie. I was merely stating a fact. Trying to help you out, ne? I don't make it a habit to go out of my way to do that sort of thing. Don't snap at me like I'm the one who got you sent here. For all you know I could be a psycho killer just looking for an excuse to choke you out with your own tie."
His voice was quite calm, casual, though by no means friendly. Some might even go so far as to call it emotionless. But it was closest thing to friendly as Reiku had managed to be during his tenure at Matrimony. He didn't appreciate getting his head bitten off for the effort.

He sighed, annoyed more with himself than this seemingly good samaritan. "Look, I'm sorry. It's just coming to this place, well I'm sure you understand it's not a very good awakening. They took something really special from me and... Well I don't know how to get it back. I'm sorry I snapped at you."
He looked to the side, feeling ashamed of himself for snapping before.

Reiku shrugged, setting down the half eaten muffin and picked up his iced cappuccino, sipping from the straw.
"It's cool. Few people are sunshine and rainbows when they first get here. Maybe you should have tried some soup or something, especially if you're still feeling crappy over the drugs." he took another sip, then set the cup down.
"Oi, what are you trying to get back. I take it it was confiscated during admissions? I hope it's not a weapon, or anything they can even imagine being used as a weapon. If so, just let it go, you're not gonna see it again."

He looked distraught at this. "But that necklace... It was my mother's. They can't just take that away from me! Honestly!" He fealt something well in his throat, but he stopped himself from getting too emotional. At least so to the point of crying.
"But I guess I could just go crazy and kill again. Like I would defile something so important with someone's life." He drummed his fingers across the table, trying to stay under control.

"Well, good luck on you're homework, I think I'll stay here for a bit, you see I'm a bit of a necrophiliac..." she said to Sanzo gesturing to Cyndir. Catch you later..." Gwen added. "Hi, I'm not actually a necrophiliac..." she said gently to Cyndir, flashing her teeth. "So, you're pretty quiet eh?" she added. "That's fine, most of my friends back home were too..." she smiled at him. "I like you're name, it's unique..." she added trying to induce any reaction from the boy.

((lol, not that Cyn is quiet, just I had finals! xd ))
Cyndir gave Sanzo a frustrated glance. It almost said: Sanzo, you too? He felt a flutter in his heart when he complimented him... But he turned back to the girl, disappointed that Sanzo was leaving. Why did he feel...annoyed? With the girl for interrupting? He shook his head. She seemed pleasant enough. And talking to her would certainly make him stop thinking about his reactions to Sanzo.
"I didn't mean to be so quiet, Gwen-san." he said, smiling. She was definately pretty, if a bit timid. "I've been a bit....preoccupied."
He smiled again, trying not to think about Sanzo. "Necro? Well, not like it would have mattered if you were. We all have our...fascinations...."
He fiddled absently with his necklace. "You said your lighter didn't work? Pity. That could have been fun...."
He stopped, realizing what he had said. Nice job Cyndir....scare off another one... He smiled nervously, hoping he didn't reveal too much. Everyone always went running when they found out he was a pyro. He shifted the guitar against his shoulder again, feeling very uncomfortable all of the sudden.

Gwen smiled again at Cyndir, she recognized the tell tale signs of a pyro when she saw one. "You too huh?" she asked. She rolled up her sleeve on her left arm to show a spiral scar spreading up her arm from the back of her hand disappearing up her shirt. "Ground up match-heads..., finishes on my shoulder" she smiled, "to each his own..." She put her sleeve back down safely hiding the scar from anyone else. "And trust me, I was planning on fixing that lighter..."

"Holy s**t!!! That's one bad a** scar, how the hell do you do that with some ground up match heads. I've never seen anything like that in my life."
Sanzo nearly fell out of his seat when she rolled the sleeve up. He'd never seen a scar like that. It just looked painful and it was fully healed.
"Well now, was that what you wanted back so bad. A lighter, a ******** lighter. You're in here for setting fires and you think they'll give you a lighter back. You must have lost your mind in 'admissions'."

"First of all, I'm not in here for setting fires...they couldn't prove it...I'm here for vandalism, the school system didn't like the mind expanding beautification project I did..." She smiled and helped Sanzo stand back up. "Second of all, I have a high pain tolerance," she pulled her shirt off her shoulder blade so they could see the end of the scar and her peace sign tattoo.

Reiku snorted, making no motion to hide it. He gave the boy a look that let it be know he didn't bselieve his story for a second.
"You? Kill again? That would imply that you've killed before, and I just don't buy it. " He shook his head as he finished his drink, setting the empty paper cup in front of himself.
"I hate to break it to you, new kid, but once you got hit by that Transporter dart, it became certain they can do anything they want to you. Jewelry theft is the least of your worries. If you stay ouf trouble maybe you can get it back. I heard the headmistress keeps all the confiscated stuff in a safe in her office."
He tented his fingers in front of him, a smirk setting distinct curve to his lips. Leaning slightly forward, he spoke in low, conspiritorial tones.
"Are you really a killer? Who? How'd you do it?"

Sanzo took the girls hand and rose to his feet, dusting off the seat of his pants.
"Arigato , Gwen-chan. You know what, you're a lot more interesting than first impressions imply. Let me have a seat, homework can wait. Won't take that long anyway."
Sanzo sat back down and leaned against his elbows on the table.
"Hell, you even got Cyn here to open up a little. I didn't even know that about Cyn. Might as well see what other little tidbits come to the surface. So what was this 'mind expanding beautification project', sounds like this could be good."
Sanzo smiled at the girl, "So...you a liitle bit of a masochist, huh?"
