On the platform: New characters and old ones that want to come and meet them!

[utopiamods]

As you all crowd onto the platform with your new and still bizarre mix of faces, expressions, clothing and wild theories, you are met by two girls. Both are in uniforms that would match if not for the colour differences - skirts, waistcoats, and light summer shirts that seem totally inappropriate for the thin layer of snow and ice coating the station platform. Both have a beret with a crest - one shows a sword, the other a shield.

At the first lull in the chatter, the shorter girl speaks up, her soft voice somehow cutting over you.

"Excuse me,"

She explains, in precise, quiet sentences, that they're prefects, representing the two schools in Rakuen. Nanami of Fortitude, she says, placing a hand on her own collarbone, and Santana of Conquest, here pointing to the taller girl she's leaning against. The girl nods, looking fairly bored.

"We will be sorting you now. When we say your name, please move quickly and quietly to whoever called you."

"Yeah," Santana interrupts, "Then we can go back to the dorms. It's not getting any warmer however many times they make us do this."

They separate, moving to stand several metres apart, and both pull a list from their waistcoat pocket. Alternating, they start to read out your names.

As long as you and I can communicate, it's going to be okay. Let's go get a PDA right now.

[Because she's sure that's going to make Dave feel better. Or something. She's still so confused..]

[knightime]

[He grabs her hand and is already leading her off the platform and towards the town. He assumes she hasn't read the manual yet. Well, he has. And all the stupid little rules they have to follow can suck it.

Dave will also not mention he's been here a week already and that for all he's learned, he still got his ass handed to him twice. Although in his defense, he fought she hulk in the form of some crazy animal chick and a shield versus a rifle is just bullshit.]

[smupette]

[Whoa someone is in a rush! Nope, she hasn't even touched that manual. She just kinda stepped off the train and found Dave. She could tell his genuine upset at the situation.

She squeezed his hand, reassuring him if anything.]

[knightime]

[He squeezes her hand back. Okay, it was kind of nice to have her here. Even if he still feels like something was clearly missing from his memory. He's gotten kind of used to that feeling too.

Honestly he's more in a rush because it's fucking cold and he doesn't want to stick around out here longer then he has to.]

[smupette]

[There were many things missing from both of them. Shit was getting pretty realistic here, and Sis was completely missing the mind train. The sense of not knowing exactly why she was here was unsettling.]

Is everything alright?

[knightime]

[He shrugs his shoulders a bit. He's not sure what else to say about the situation. There's a lot of pros and a lot of cons, and honestly, it made it hard for him to decide whether he liked it here or being in the session.]

[smupette]

[She quickly goes to pace with him. She's gauging his reactions to base things on if is going to be a bad situation for the both of them.]

I don't like this place already.

[knightime]

[He finally stops at the front of Recette's shop.]

it could be worst
i guess

[smupette]

We'll make it.

[She side glances at Dave, then turns her attention to the shop. Is this where she could gain a PDA, and maybe other necessary things?]

[knightime]

just get a pda
most of the shit is given by the school
pretty much

[And the PDA really takes up most of your raks anyways.]

[smupette]

[She walks into the shop, the bag slung over her shoulder. She gains the PDA (and silently mourns the loss of most of her raks) and meets back with Dave outside of the shop.]

What do I do now? [Hopefully now leave or anything.]

[knightime]

[Food is free at the cafeteria at least. Well, basically anything is free at this point. Unless you buy things from the town.]

idk
i guess head to your dorm
or some shit
youre a teacher huh
at conquest

[smupette]

Yeah. I guess I am.

[She's pats Dave on the shoulder, squeezing it. She hates to think her and her brother are being separated. Perhaps they're doing this for a reason, who knows.]

You'll be alright?

[knightime]

[He gives her a small nod. He waves the PDA a bit. She could contact him via the PDAs, so the whole not seeing each other on a daily basis wasn't probably that big of a deal. It wasn't like she was often home.]
