Welcome to Gaia! ::

Susie went into the cafeteria and bowed to Seth. "Well here you are. This is where i leave you. I forgot that i had to do something..Heh.. I apologize. I hope to talk to you again." She smiled and nodded to him, turning the other way. Though, before she left she waved to Seth and then gave a smile, nod, and another wave to Rai as she walked out.

He gave her a smile and a wave as he watched her leave, then turned his attention toward the food. "Sooo hungry" he then turned his attention to the employer serving the food "yeah, I'll have a burger, some fries, a milkshake, 3 slices of pizza, another burger and uh.. some more fries" he then slid his ID card through the machine and awaited his food. When it finaly arrived he picked up the tray and sat down at a table. "Lunch time" he said to himself, just before digging in.

Fondling his new I.D. card with his fingertips, Miki scrunched up his face determinedly and stepped up to the food dispenser. Extending his arm, he slid the I.D. card into the slot. After a few seconds a computerized voice chimed in, recognizing he was a student, and therefore entitled to free food.

"Please order your meal." It barked out in a politely commanding tone.

Blinking in confusion, Miki tilted his head and opened his mouth to say he'd like a hot dog or a pizza; but, there was no way for him to tell the computerized voice what he wanted. Narrowing his eyes in frustration, he glanced around the machine to look for buttons to choose the food manually. It seemed so high tech with its voice activation that the teachers probably thought they didn't need to spend extra money on making buttons.

"Please order your meal." The voice called out in exactly the same volume and tone as before. Perhaps the manufacturers didn't bother with giving the machine emotions, because it wasn't annoyed at Miki for taking a longer time than normal to give his order.

Gloomily, Miki reached out with his hand once more to retrieve his I.D. card. He had automatically assumed it would shoot out, like it had motion sensors or something. Yet there was another fatal flaw within this program: only once the order had been processed would the card come back out. Miki's catlike eyes narrowed in annoyance and frustration. He'd just gotten that I.D. card and now he couldn't use it anymore.

With a growl of anguish, Miki lunged out with his foot to kick the machine for being so stupid. Then he was reminded, with a sharp pain in his foot and the saucy voice repeating "Please order your meal," that this machine could only take verbal orders. Now his foot hurt, and he hopped around with a few yelps of pain.

Finally, lowering his eyes with a defeated look, Miki leaned his side against the wall beside the food dispenser and slowly slid down to sit against the floor . . .

Miki wasn't aware of much except for the tugging of the black leather case on his back. He didn't hear anyone's footsteps approaching, so it wasn't until he felt Keila poking him that he jumped, startled, and turned in his seat on the floor to face her. He was going to tell her via mind-link what was wrong but she found out herself soon enough. It was something of a lucky stroke too, because the second she had said the word pizza there was a whirring from inside the machine and out popped the order.

"Thank you, enjoy your meal." Said the computerized voice. Miki's I.D. card shot out of the slot, and with a cry he scrambled to his feet. Removing both the card and the pizza- the latter from another larger slot- he turned to Keila with a sheepish smile. I couldn't use the machine. He explained to her while rubbing his hair nervously with his free hand; the I.D. card was now resting safely in his pant's pocket against the keycard to his dorm room.

(OOC: Nuuuuuuuuuu, if you goes who will hang out with poor lil' Miki v_v)

Miki's eyes widened as he was hugged by Keila and he almost dropped his pizza in shock, but recovered just in time to save the meal which had caused him undue stress. For some reason his shyness must have resurfaced and made him jumpy. It took a few moments while he blinked and recovered his thoughts before Miki shrugged and replied in Keila's mind. Oh, I'm great, I think I know my way around most of the places here now . . . but I'm not too sure if that'll help once classes start. He mused.

((uhhhmmm.... >.< But I really gotta go pack... ))

"You know you really had me worried alot there.. it's like, whoa. All the sudden you were gone.. and then you started thinking some really wierd stuff... I can't remember all of it.. but then there was this blue rose I think.. but anyway, I went insider Seyla's mind, and then I left my own body and then there was fire and this wierd thing, and I didn't open my eyes cause I was trying to get back to my own body, and then it was like.. whoa. Yeah, like that." Keila smiled at her sudden random outburst of events and sighed slightly, leaning her head to her side with a yawn. She was getting really tired.

((Make ya a deal. After I get back from the shower I'll post again, but then I have to go. So I'll see ya then.))

Zach thought it was odd the boy was annoying him and just after noticing they had two things in common since he was carrying his banjo on his back he noticed the pizza. why? because its shadow was right above him as it came down on his head. his eyes asumed what could have been described as a mizerable gave had anyone been able to see it. feeling defeated before the fight had even begun he picked just faced his head toward miki and asked even louder. "Who you? And is this yours?" he pointed to the pizza on his head.

He pulled one of the pieces out of the rest of the pizza and started eating it. between mouth fulls he talked to the boy. "not much for words are we?" he ate some and looked around for a place to put the pizza. "You know, its generaly a good idea to answer a guy when he talks to you." he took another piece and kept eating. "especialy when the guy asking is me, but this time you're off the hook. I haven't eaten in three days cause I couldn't understand this rediculus machine." he finnaly found a place to put the pizza down and after doing so got up on a table mimiking how the boy sat, till he got bored and pulled his banjo around to the front and started plucking it slowly. "so mystery boy gonna talk or what?"
