Getting Organized (Open)

[Eteri Ines]

"'We'll keep your load light,' they said. 'Only a few boxes,' they said..."

Eteri kept mumbling to herself as she opened the second box of her belongings, an obviously irritated expression on her face. Why does she say these things and look this way? She actually had about a dozen boxes in her room. What did they do, back her entire wardrobe, all her home accessories, and then added some on top of it? If she had packed, she'd probably only have three boxes. Just the essentials with a few extra stuff for the heck of it.

But no, she had more stuff than she know what do deal with. Trying to sort all this was a serious chore, and it would take her all day and most of the next to get everything in order... if she didn't put up the rest in some closet. They had a closet in here, right? Well, it was a room made for two people, so there should be something to help organize everything between the two roommates.

Though that did raise a question. Has anyone signed up to be her roommate? Not that she would mind all that much to have it to herself, but a little company would make this entire experience at Ashford a bit more bearable.

[Veronica Knox]

Walking back to her dorm, Veronica was in the process of slowing her breathing. She wore one of few outfits outside of her school uniform; a pair of beat up, black running shorts and a dark blue tank top. The clothing were quite the contrast compared to her long white hair, currently pulled into a high ponytail and her unnatural red eyes. She could hardly care, she had just come back from doing a few laps around the island and she was a bit tired from it. Not to mention, she really didn’t care what anyone at this school thought of her besides her rather tight circle of friends.

Yet, she wasn’t so wrapped up in her own world that she didn’t’ take note to the frustrated words of a girl in the room to her right. Veronica paused in her movement, a small smirk coming to her lips as she heard the amusing rant of the girl. Curiosity got the better of her as she turned towards the open door and knocked on the frame, “Hey there,” V said, her eyes roaming around the crowed room. Now, there wasn’t too much room in the dorms to start off, especially with the bulky furniture the school provided, so the mountain of unpacked boxes seemed a bit excessive to Veronica. Then again, you were also talking about the girl who only had a bag’s worth of belongings anyway.

She might not have been the best judge but the girl who appeared to own all the crap seemed to think the same way, so perhaps she wasn’t too far off. “You might want to tell whoever packed all this that their definition of ‘light’ is very different from the rest of the world,” A slight teasing tone was tacked onto her words as a small smile appeared on her thin lips. “Would you like a hand unpacking all of this?” Veronica really wasn’t one to make friends, or simply hand out her help but she was in the need for some amusement, and this girl seemed like she could definitely provide it for the time being.
