Checking in

Fletcher had gotten his rooming information; apparently he didn't have a roommate yet, which was a little disappointing. He'd hoped he could at least share a room with his brother.

When he arrived in Pale dormitory, room 1-A, he looked around the large room and sighed. There were five beds, and only one tiny boy living in this room. Between waking up on a mysterious train, watching that strange movie, and now this, he found that he really wasn't liking this.

He set down the two items he'd been given -- the Exaclan rule book and the white glove -- on a bedside table, and sat down. Well. What now?

"Hi, Russel! And Fletcher too. My name's Sora," she dipped into as good a bow as she could manage whilst gathered up on top of a bed, her list crinkling in her hands. "It must be a relief to be with someone close."

Russel absently rubbed his brother's arm. His anxiety was obvious, even to him, but he didn't want to address it at that moment. Not in front of a stranger, anyway. "Hi, Sora. Actually, could you give us a minute? There's something I need to talk to Fletcher about." His face was a little stony. Fletcher would know it's how he got when he was annoyed with something and he wasn't trying to look it. But for others, it just made him a bit hard to read.

"Ah- Okay! I really should go find the others," she swivelled herself so she could clamber back off the bed without faceplanting into anything solid, and made a brief, terrible effort to straighten the covers for whichever unfortunate soul might have wanted to use them later. After a few seconds, she gave up, tucked her list back into her pocket, and gave them both a wave. "If you want to talk, I'm in the Red dorm, okay? 1-A!"

And then there was the sound of air rushing to fill a sora-shaped space in the centre of the room, as she left again. Her cheerful "See you both later!" just managed to slip through the door before it closed.

He rolled his eyes at Sora's departure, and cringed a bit when she'd said she was in his room. Boys and girls together. Great. This was going to suck.

But more importantly, Fletcher was upset. "What's wrong, Fletcher? Did something happen?" He knew he shouldn't have let him go on his own in this strange place.

Russel stood, and leaned over toward Fletcher, his hands on the boy's shoulders. "It's okay, Fletcher. They said we'd all lost memories. Some of them are probably more important than others."

"Calm down, Fletcher. You don't have to. Listen to me." He pulled Fletcher's arms down so they can make eye contact. "You're still my brother, no matter what. Even if you can't remember my name. I'll protect you. You don't have to fight anyone."

"Then you just tell them no. They'd have to be insane to want a kid to fight in the first place. And just because they pick you, that doesn't mean you have to fight in the first place. It just means you're capable." His voice was certain and resolute. In his mind, he made plans to find out whose ass he had to kick to get an exception made.

"I'll get yours," he said. "I'm your brother, it's my job. And I'll give you my credits and you can buy some for me. That way it's all even. Okay?" He reached over and ruffled his brother's hair, in a way he hoped was comforting.

"We'll be okay. I promise," he said, pulling his brother into another hug. "Nothing bad will happen to you."
