On the platform: Meet the new characters
Rakuen is warm in the noon sun, not humid enough to be uncomfortable but bright enough to make the transition from train to platform momentarily disorienting. The group greeting you is rather large, but also rather uneven - on one side, ten students in black and green; on the other, six in red and white. Whilst the green group are all fairly average, all teenagers other than the tiny, frail woman leading them, the red group are a tad more varied. One of their girls is tiny, the size of a small child, and her wings are beating patterns in the warm air. At the other side of the group, a warlike man looms over his comrades.
When they notice the arrivals, one out of each group steps forward. A young man wearing shades steps forward first.
"Excuse me." A second boy, a few years older and more serious looking steps forward from the red group. He explains that they're all prefects of Rakuen, from the two battle schools on the island. Fortitude - the boy in the sunglasses and the others dressed in green - and Conquest. They all arrived just like you did, weeks or months before this.
"I know you have many questions but first please come to the person who calls your name."
He looks down on his list to double check "For Conquest, Nanami Kiryuu, Hukaru Hitachiin, Madotsuki and Aria."
"If I call your name," the green-clad boy had stepped forward again, "it means you're with Fortitude, a.k.a the slightly more awesome school. Brittany Pierce, Jules de Ferrier, Izumi and Furiae."

So not like Hungry Hungry Hippos at all.
He gestures to her schoolbag. "You got yourself a manual, and I recommend getting acquainted with it by tomorrow."

Making new friends is always a good thing.
Oh you didn't want her to take the manual out right now? Too bad, she's already got it in her hands and flicks through it quickly, "...But there's hardly any pictures."
no subject
"That's the spirit. Normally I'm not one for enforcing the rules, but there are some pretty serious consequences if you don't comply around here." With a shrug, he went on, "I'm almost sad that you're so excited for this, because I'm pretty sure we've figured out the way out of this place."

"Okay well, I'll make sure I read up on it all then! It might take me a while to get through it all though..." Sad? No, she doesn't want anyone to be sad! She tilts her head to the side and shrugs a shoulder, "I like it here already but that doesn't mean I wouldn't like to go home either. Most of my friends aren't here or my family."

"You are ridiculously agreeable, anyone ever tell you that?"

There's a bit of a pause before she answers and she looks up from the journal in her hands and back at him with a shake of her head, "No, that's the first time I've been called that...is that a good thing or a bad thing?"
no subject
"It's a thing," he says simply, and cracks half a smile.
