When she arrived at the school the sun was bright, high in the sky and bathing the island in a soft light that allowed for the slightest hint of vision. There had been a few issues in terms of accessibility, but had found her way nonetheless. when Reese arrived on Eoana's Campus the trees were what she saw first, they surrounded the campus and had loomed over it as dark splotches in her almost non-existent vision, almost entirely obscuring the white blotch that was the Academy. At first the blonde girl had been in awe of the sheer size of the aforementioned white splotch but was quickly returned to her initial mission by a stranger bumping her lightly on their way past. Dorms. She had a few bags that carried clothes and trinkets and while none were overly heavy, Reese had found trouble bringing them to the campus. They were awkward to carry and simply annoying to hold, so she had started walking. It was a simple walk, the floor crunched and the blurry figures of people milling about added to the ambiance of the Academy.
She panicked for a moment, wishing only to be back home in a familiar location, but despite her initial dread, managing the corridors and halls to her room there had seemed something fantastical about the school, if only in her mind. The floor felt different to walk on than the paved pathways of her hometown and the blurs of color before her showed how lively the Academy was.
Along the way Reese found that the halls were some of her favorite places because of the wonderful sounds that echoed through them, The clicking of shoes and whispered voices in the distance had all reminded her of children's stories of fantasy and adventure. By the time she'd finally arrived at her dorm, more time had passed than she originally hoped to spend traveling the campus, because it was supposedly the schools free day though, she didn't worry much about time. When she entered the room Reese had started to wander about, familiarizing herself with the layout of the room while she was the only one there. She wanted to know where things were in the dorm room at least. Once she recognized the layout of the entirety of the room, Reese had opened the curtains to allow as much light in as she could then started to set out her own things; the violin case decorated with shards of reflective shells slid under the bed, her own stuffed animals and a hand knitted throw blanket on top the bed. She had taken her time to fold her clothes before arranging them mostly by fabrics and set them into a drawer carefully, she'd bumped her hands several times, once scraping her palm on the corner of a drawer but this was only and inconvenience to her.
After the clothes had been put away Reese arranged her shoes and a few smaller trinkets on the bedside table before she went through the room once more for good measure. She had debated for a while whether to leave and eventually decided her dorm was one of the least interesting places to be at the time.

Calliope awoke as she always did: far too early for her liking with streams of sweat running down her face and her body overheated. She took a deep breath in, letting the back of her hand rest against her forehead, as she stared up at the wall. In her peripherals she could see a lock of blonde hair hanging over the side of the very comfy looking bed, and the wooden canopy that crowned it. It was during the second month that she had decided to move her bedroll close to Reese's bed, hoping that it would stop her night terrors enough so that they could both go a night peacefully. It indeed had stopped her screaming fits, but she still had them: the death of the man now mixing in with her time in captivity back in Rimal. Reese did not need to know, and she had not said anything to Calliope about the latter's labored breaths before consciousness.
Today, of all days, made the older girl instantly get up after her heart rate went back to normal. After her shower, a damp towel covering her hair, she began to get ready as quietly as could be for the events happening soon. She was a first year and hadn't known anyone who died, or so she thought, but she was hoping to get through the service to pay her respects for everyone else's benefits than her own. As long as she could forgo having a panic attack and seeing the soldier standing amongst the crowd, she could count the day as a win.
With her hair now closer to being dry than wet, Calliope began to get dressed. She wore soft black dress pants that matched the lighter black of her buttoned down shirt. She loosely tied a silk scarf around her neck, letting it dangle there, before eyeing her dark buttoned down overcoat she would wear to stave off the chill of winter. Her black boots were by the door, and she contemplated sitting by the window until Reese awoke fully- she had stirred a few times when Calli was getting ready. No one was in the halls at the time, the daylight only now slowly coming through the windows as the sun rose, and she stood there with her hands on her hips looking from the seal to Reese's bed.
Choosing the best of both worlds Calliope cooed, "Come on, it's time to wake up, Reese," as she began to walk toward the window seal. She sat upon it, her legs falling off the side as her body lay into the paned glass, before she looked back to her roommate.

Reese woke quickly to the sound of her name, but while she was awake, she stayed in her bed for several moments, staring sightless up at the ceiling. She rubbed her eyes and after a moment looked towards the window where light was begging to pour into the room, giving the blond girl a blurry view of the room, "How are you?" she asked as she crawled out of bed, counting her steps carefully to a dresser where her clothes were neatly folded and organized by fabric. The girl dug around, trying to find something that would be appropriate for the day. She wanted to properly honor those who had fallen in the festival, and while she didn't know anyone there, she knew that there were many families who had lost someone.
But as she fished through her clothes she couldn't recall well enough if she owned anything black, she debated asking for help, but didn't want to bother Callie and instead went on to braid her hair until there was more light in the room, "It's cold today," she mumbled finally going back through her clothes and finding something that seemed to be black.
She finished off the braid in her hair, pulling free some strands to partially cover the scars around her eyes. Having washed up the night before the blond girl went to wash her face before getting dressed quickly and returning to her bed to search underneath for her shoes, after this, she looked up towards the window where her friend sat, "how long have you been up?" she asked curiously, "are you already dressed?" Reese was struggling to tie her shoes, they were different than the flats she normally wore, but it was cold enough to call for boots, or at least she thought.

With the rising of the sun also came with it bodies sluggishly moving out into the cold. Some were dressed in their black funeral garbs, while others were dressed normally with books in their hands. Over the course of the last couple months Calliope had gotten used to the class schedules, the elective days, and, of course, the free days that fell today. There were no classes that were beginning, and the teachers would probably all be setting up for the service, or possibly actually doing something like fortifying their defenses. She could feel the anger bubbling inside her again at their incompetence, but as she heard Reese's voice the feeling dissipated.
Calliope did not turn from the window but asked, "Would you like me to lie to you?" Her heterochromatic eyes continued to watch as more academy students walked to and fro, their faces downcast and their lips moving frantically. They were probably discussing the funeral at the cemetery today, maybe feeling guilty they had no real part but running away when the soldiers came. Or maybe they were thinking of some heroic speech to tell everyone around them how they single handedly took out the enemy. Selfish brats, Calli thought before shaking her head and turning from the window.
She watched as Reese began to braid her hair, mumbling about the cold. Calliope chuckled at that, nodding towards her but known with her back turned- and even if it wasn't- she could not see her. In Rimal it got extremely cold at night, so the temperature didn't bother her as much, but she remembered hating how her bones felt brittle and would rattle in the snow. The sight of Reese putting her hair up made Calliope think twice of letting her hair fall in ribbons down her back, but she quickly decided against it. It was always a hassle to get her long hair to obey her, and she wasn't in the mood to try to tame it today. It did not help cover her eye or scars, as Reese pulled her own to cover hers, but she doubted anyone would be looking at her too hard today of all days.
When Reese entered the room after washing up, Calliope turned back toward the window as she got dressed. The question was posed and the older girl shrugged, her hands entwined on her thigh. "Maybe an hour or so," she remarked, glancing back over when she heard the girl rustle the shows out from underneath the bed. She watched her for a few moments, unanswering of the second question, before she raised from the window seal and bent in front of Reese. Taking the strings lightly, so that if Reese wanted to she could simply take them back from her, she began to tie the shoes while she answered, "Yes, I'm dressed. Half of my wardrobe is black. It was pretty easy finding something to wear." Calliope smirked, finishing up on the shoes and standing, holding out a hand to the girl. "With all of your bright colors, I didn't think you would find anything remotely black."

Reese hadn't expected Calli to come over, but as the older girl took her laces Reese let her, figuring it was best to simply have the small task done that stall while she tried to figure it out for half an hour. The blond girl smiled some and looked towards the darkened blur that was calliope, "Thank you," she started, letting Calli take over the infuriating task of tying the boots, "I didn't think I had any either," Reese replied and thinking about it then, she hadn't seen Calli wear many colors, perhaps black was one of her favorite colors? "I was worried this would be like a dark blue or something" she gestured at what she was certain must have been a black dress and chuckled lightly.
Reese watched Calli for a moment and sure that she would have little to no issue with the laces the blond girl began fussing at her cloths, checking that the buttons were aligned, fidgeting with the ruffles and so on, and ince her shoes were tied she thanked Calli again and began to search around her bed for her bag.
She knew simply by memory that it was near the wall, and she also knew that it was pink and decorated with shells and beads of various sizes, so perhaps not the best choice, but while it clashed with the somber feeling of the day, it would have to do. Surely no one would care enough to notice though. Slipping the messenger bag on and draping it over her shoulder Reese looked up towards Calliope, "Are you headed to the memorial right now?" she asked, hoping to be able to follow Calliope rather than asking random people to point her in the right direction.

Calliope nodded her head in a nonverbal attempt at acknowledging Reese's thanks. She didn't think it needed an answer, especially since she was so close to the girl that she could have seen her head bob. She then chuckled, watching as Reese began to fiddle with her outfit, before she admitted, "When I said remotely, that's what I meant. But it's so dark, you couldn't tell without the sun bringing out the blue tint." She stepped away, the girl not taking her hand when she rose, and placed them instead into her pockets. As Reese rummaged for her bag, Calliope went towards the door to put her own boots on. She was already quite tall, but the heel on the boots gave her another couple inches, making her at least 6 foot.
She leaned back onto the wall, replacing her hands into her pockets, and watched as Reese found her bag. The appearance made Calliope smirk as she said, "Ah, there's the color." The taller girl ran a hand through her hair before nodding. "Yes, I'm headed there now. Are you sure you'll stay warm in that?" she asked, grabbing her black button down overcoat.

At the comment that her dress was blue Reese held out the dress some and stared at it intensely, unable to differentiate the color of her dress from the color of Calli's clothes "Is it actually blue?" she asked looking towards her friend and sounding distraught. did she not actually own anything black?
Eventually Reese stood, her bag slung around her shoulder, she smiled some at the comment of color and looking up at Calliope Reese realized her figure seemed just a bit taller than usual, before she could mention it Calli replied, telling her that she was leaving while simultaneously asking a question. It was cold, but Reese thought back to the coat she'd worn to the festival, the coat that she'd thrown out after that night in the forest. a chill ran down her spine at the memory of trying to wash the blood free of the light fabric, "Um..." she started and shook her head lightly as if to clear her mind, "I should be fine, i have pretty thick stockings on," she said tugging at the grey stockings that went past her knees,"and the cape thingy's quite fluffy," she added and flipped a small corner of the shoulder cape over, running a hand across the fur like fabric as if to demonstrate that it was, indeed, fluffy.
Reese fidgeted with her outfit one more time before Calli offered up her arm which the blond girl took carefully, allowing her friend to lead the way.
