imperturbatus | Cool and Spicy~

Great Hall

[This is a chance for Amu to start over. For her to drop her outside character and just be herself. Except that is easier said than done. She's only been with her chara's and the others for a year but she misses them. She sits at a table after leaving her cloak in her room. Her bag from her old school is in front of her and she's looking out the window with her chin resting on her palm. She's a little down without anyone else she knows here but her parents had gotten so excited when she got her letter.

She sighs looking back over the great hall at the other students.

She can't help but wonder what it's going to be like here. There were a few people that she spotted from Japan but she couldn't help but feel a little displaced. As a collection of sad thoughts worked to invade her mind she tries to push them away. Everyone is wishing her luck from home and she'd be able to visit and see them again soon.

Even so, she's clearly dwelling on it and has once again fallen back into her 'cool and spicy' attitude. She doesn't want to get close if she has to say goodbye.]

School Grounds

[Amu decides to spend some time walking around the outside of the castle. It was amazing seeing the castle from the boats with the stars as a back drop but it had been night then and she wasn't able to see it all. She steps through the grass taking a look at anything that seems odd. She has read a few books before coming that her father had given her about wizards and the like but there is a lot that she doesn't know.]

Mmm...

[She lightly kicks at a rock almost expecting it to fly off. This is such a weird place.

Amu does find a strange tree on the grounds and yet as she gets closer it starts to move so she takes a few steps back. It's not worth chancing that the tree might see her as a tasty snack.]

What's with this place.

Gryffindor

[She's sitting in the common room with a book out in front of her. Her attempts to jump ahead have only managed to put the first year to sleep. The fire next to her seems to be giving her just enough warmth for the chill of the castle not to wake her up. Her quill has fallen to the table and her head is resting in the center of her text, using the book as a pillow. It might take some effort to wake her up though it's hard to tell with the soft mumbles coming from her lips. ]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[Amu pauses.]

I don't think that describes me.

Then are they traits you admire?

[She ponders on it for a moment.]

I suppose so.. there are lots of things I wish I could do.

[Maybe to many.]

Well do you try and see if you actually can do them. Instead of just wishing?

[She thought she would ask at least.]

Sort of...

[It's been getting harder with Ran, Miki, or Su but she's talked to a teacher about learning to bake so that's something.]

Then one doesn't know until they try. Though what do you mean by sort of?

[She can't help but tilt her head slightly.]

I've sort of tried things but then I sort of didn't.

[That really isn't explaining.]

You either didn't or didn't. Unless you start and just give up like two minutes later.

[It really wasn't.]

No, I did but only because my friends were there.

[Maybe that's better.]

[Fuu was somewhat puzzled as to if they were actually talking about the same subject any more or if there were two different subjects altogether.]

Then if that was the case that would mean you did try. Not did try and not tried at the same time.

I guess so.

[Amu smiles nervously. She doesn't really know if the chara changes count as trying but it's a little hard to explain.]

I guess we went off the subject of what we were originally talking about, aren't we.

[She pauses for a moment, what were they talking about. Oh, well maybe moving off the subject.]

What are you hoping to learn while here?

Ah, yeah.

[Her smile falters as she steps forward.]

I don't know. I think my parents want me to learn magic though this is my first year. I hope to make friends to be honest.

[That's embarrassing to say. Why would she say that?!]

I'm sure you will do. I mean everyone needs friends in live otherwise it would be very lonely.

[Though she wasn't even home when she got her letter so she wondered if her parents even knew she was here now she thought about it some more.]

I'm apparently in my fourth year, so I have to study to catch up.

Really?

[Amu could guess that she's older but she didn't think by that much.]

I can't really help...

[Being a first year has disadvantages.]

I know, but I'm good at catching up and learning quickly, so it will be no problem to me.

[She hopes anyway as she smiles slightly.]

That's good.

[Amu pauses.]

But... um.. if you want to study or something... let me know.

[A finger slightly scratches the edge of her cheek as she nervously puts the offer out in the air.]

I should be fine for now, but that reminds me. Do you have homework or something you needed to do?

[Best to ask anyway.]

[Amu pauses and then looks very alarmed.]

Oh my gosh!! I totally forgot!

Wait, really? You get homework before doing your first year?

[She didn't say that seriously.]

I was suppose to read some things.

[It isn't really homework but she doesn't want to fall behind.]

Same here actually. So perhaps we should think about doing that.

[She has at least three years worth to catch up on after all.]

Ah, I usually read in bed...

[Which doesn't work with someone in another house.]

Maybe we can meet up later?

Maybe. I would like that.

[Then again they were in different houses and also different years really.]

Perhaps tomorrow or at least within the next week.

[Amu smiles.]

Yeah!
