((This RP is for Zinnia, Harper, Farvardin, and Hazel.))  Zinnia opened the door to the room that would be hers for the next three years with a mixture of nervousness and excitement. She was glad that she would have roommates; surely they would be just as eager to make friends as she was. The faster she learned to fit in, the better! Plus training would be so much easier with moral support. The blue-haired teenager set her small suitcase of clothes and toiletries on her bed and glanced around the room. It housed four beds, and there was a dresser next to each bed. There were curtained windows, but they only provided a view of the Wall. The floor was hardwood, but there were rugs placed strategically in high-traffic areas. It wasn't terribly spacious, but her heart swelled in her chest all the same. She'd never be woken up by her mother's lecture on the proper sleeping habits of ladies again! She was about to unpack her things when she saw another girl walk into the room. Zin's face instantly split into a wide grin; this was her chance to make friends with her first-ever roommate! "Hi!" she said brightly. "My name's Zin. What's yours? I guess we'll be roommates!" She looked (and felt) like she'd just won the lottery.

Zinnia was in luck, because Harper loved friends. She absolutely lived to surround herself with people who wanted to be her friend. Friends were so important to Harper that sometimes she found herself losing pieces of her own personality just so that she could better accommodate friends - and potential friends.
"I'm Harper," the pink-haired girl remarked shyly, clutching the small pack she held to her chest. Harper was feeling pretty thankful that the first girl she'd met was actually a friendly one. The dorm seemed pretty empty.
"Do you know what beds are taken? I'm.. not really sure what I'm supposed to do next."
Harper gave a soft laugh and glanced around, cheeks pink.

 Farvardin walked up to the dorm building with her quiver and bow slung across her back. In both of her hands were bags. She paused to look at the dorm and walked in. Immediately she walked back out while yelling 'sorry'. Again she walked into the wrong building. Finally reaching the last building she walked in. She walked into one of the rooms and paused seeing two other girls. "Oh.... um... hi? Is there room for one other person?" She asked noticing that there were two other beds but she wasn't sure if they weren't taken yet. "I'm Farvardin Wyman. Nice to meet you both!" She grinned at them figuring that even if she couldn't share a room with them she would be sharing the dorm with them. ((Question! Is their room the one upstairs or downstairs? ))

((I don't know. 8'D I don't have a preference, so you can decide whether it's upstairs or downstairs.))
Zin glanced at the beds. They looked untouched; the pillows and covers were crisp and fastidiously tucked. "I think we're the first ones here, so we get to have first dibs," she said with a mischievous grin. She parked her butt on the bed that she'd put her suitcase on. "This one's mine!" She announced. It was a bed that was closer to the center of the room. "You should take one next to mine!" she suggested invitingly.
Harper looked like she'd be a great friend, even though she was clearly older than Zinnia. But more importantly, she looked like a kind person.
She hopped off her bed again, taking her suitcase with her. "I'm gonna put my stuff away, Harper," she announced. "After that, do you wanna--" She cut herself off mid-sentence when Farvardin walked in.
"Oh, hi!" she said, lighting up once more. "Yeah, I think it's just us two here so far! Make yourself at home! I'm Zin, it's nice to meet you!" The more roommates, the merrier! She'd definitely be able to make friends with at least one of them, but she hoped to befriend all of them! She stared at her new roommates for a moment before realizing that she still had to unpack and put away her things. The sooner she took care of that, the sooner she could go exploring. She opened her suitcase and began putting her clothes away according to their proper drawer. She wanted to finish quickly so that she could go back to talking to her new friends.

 She was completely lost. It was not like she had a terrible sense of direction, it just was that all the buildings looked alike. With a sigh she set off in a direction, she was terrified about asking for directions, worried that it would make her seem inept and a cadet not worthy of being a soldier. Well if she was lost, it was not her fault, it was the commander’s, since he did not give very good instructions of how to get to dorm… Her eye widened, what was the name of the dorm again? Targa, Targaryen, Tra… Tragen!
Hazel squinted at the wooden building before her, the sign said it was the Tragen barracks, “I guess I found the right building, now just need to find where I will be sleeping for the next three years,” she spoke quietly to herself, unwilling to draw attention to herself. The young woman shifted her pack to the other shoulder, took in a deep breath and walked into the building.
The first room was filled with four guys, who stared at her expectantly as she stared into the room, a blush came to her cheeks as she fled down the hall to the next available room. There were three girls already in there, “uh…hi, is there space available in here?” The words came out tentative and almost in a rush. Meeting new people always caused anxiety to form in the young blond woman, although if they were injured it would be a whole different matter.
Her teal eyes sought one of the perfectly made bunks, she could probably bounce a coin off of the perfectly compressed bedding as it was tucked in so tight, “I-I’m Hazel Snow.” The three girls appeared nice enough and two of them seemed about the same age as Hazel, while the third with the blue pig tails seemed younger. Her energy was almost palpable, causing Hazel to give a small smile.

"I'm Harper," Harper greeted Farvardin, beaming quietly. It was so, so nice to have others around her. She'd hated being alone, and it didn't matter that this was the military. Potential friends always had a way of taking her mind off of her troubles, and here she was, surrounded by potential friends.
Harper was in bliss.
When another girl came in, she was greeted with a big, bright grin.
"I'm Harper," she chirped again; it was obviously necessary to introduce herself to the newcomers just as she had introduced herself to Zin. The blush was still bright on her cheeks, but she wasn't self-conscious about it. It was just a general giddiness, an excitement.
"I'll take whichever bed you guys don't want, I really don't mind at all. Does anyone need help with their bags or unpacking? I don't have much, myself."

Farvardin's grin grew as the two other girls appeared to be so friendly. She stepped away from the door and headed for the bed closest to the door. It was just in time as someone else walked in. She nodded at Hazel and grinned at them all. "Nice to met you Zin, Hazel, and Harper!"
She tossed her bags on the bed she claimed and took off her bow and quiver. "I guess we're lucky we got a room downstairs. I don't know if I could find the room if it was upstairs." She said, "I tend to get lost easily." She set her bow and quiver up by the head of the bed on the floor. She then spotted a dresser near her bed and claimed that as her's.
"Thanks Harper for the offer but I've got it covered." She said grabbing a bag and starting to put the stuff in the dresser.

"Hi, Hazel!" Zin greeted the newcomer. "You got the last bed, so it looks like this is everyone! We'll be roommates for the next three years." She beamed at the other girls, positive that they would grow to become the best of friends over the years. "You can help me unpack!" Zinnia announced to Harper. "I originally wasn't going to bring very many things, but then my mom insisted that I pack a bunch of dresses." She made a face. "I have an idea of what we can do with them, though." She grabbed her suitcase and opened it up. She started sorting through it; her street clothes (consisting mostly of T-shirts and shorts) went into their respective drawers in her dresser, and she dropped any dresses she came across in a messy pile on the floor. Toiletries and other necessities she placed on top of the dresser. She looked up when she heard the clatter of Farvardin's bow. "You know how to shoot a bow and arrow?" she asked in awe. "Where are you from?" She knew that some villages existed in the forest, and they were known to hunt-- was that where Farvardin was from? ((If you guys don't object, we can have them ask each other a bit about their backgrounds to get to know one another, and then Zin has an idea to make things a bit more interesting. XD))
