Ruby Vallance
“Heya,” she said, extending a hand to the girl in the hat. “You’re a freshman too, huh? I’m Ruby.”

Lori Lockhart
Ok people are talking to you here. Play it smooth. Lori shook the albino girl's hand and gave her the best smile she could manage while rummaging through her bag. Hold on... where is it... I'm shaking her hand too long... aha! She pulled out an old name-tag that said 'Hi I'm Lori' and showed it to the girl.

Akhim Sabalani
Akhim stepped into Scheherazade High School and silently prayed that he would find someone new quickly with whom he would hit it off. Alas, his wish didn't come true. Even still, he saw his old friends, Amsu Salaan and Tuton Ankhir, talking to each other over by the side of the lobby. He walked over to join the conversation, which seemed to die down as he came over.
"Hey", Akhim said, "How've you guys been?" He smiled awkwardly.
"Oh, y'know, the same", Amsu replied, glancing over at Tuton. "Just kinda, y'know, hung out, over the summer."
Tuton looked back at Amsu before also stating that, he, too, had "just hung out" during the summer break.
Akhim noticed that something seemed off with them. Ah, whatever, he thought. I bet it's just my mind playing tricks on me again. Before he could respond, the bell rang and the other two walked off without a glimpse back at Akhim.

Ruby Vallance
She squinted at the small card and adjusted her glasses. "Ooh. Lori. That's a pretty name!"
Rick looked over at them. "Can she talk?"
"Doesn't look like it..."
"Well, Lori," Rick warned, "I hope you're a good listener if you hit it off with my sister. She'll do enough talking for the both of you."

Red
Red hadn't found any minds to mold, and she was probably happy about that. She glanced at her schedule, yup, this was the right room. Modern Communication Technology, Seminar, DAVIS. There were a few other students hanging about but the professor was curiously missing. She drummed her hands on the table. It wasn't uncommon for the prof to be late, but on the first day? That seemed fairly odd, to say the least. She leaned forward and tried to get the attention of a boy in the second row. "Have you had Davis before?"
"Oh yeah, he's always like this. Don't worry about it." The boy muttered without breaking his concentration on his tablet. "His class is barely functional, but he tells great stories."
"Good to hear." Red leaned back and rolled her eyes.
Makalani
Makalani had changed out of his suit and now sat in the university library, reading what looked like a fairly generic architecture textbook, one hand on top of his bag.

Lori Lockhart
Unsure of how to respond, Lori simply gave a thumbs up. She stood around awkwardly for a bit, rising up and down on her toes, before remembering something. She reached into her bag again and got out a leather bound notebook and a green pen and started writing.
'What's your major? Mine is history.'

Ruby Vallance
"Oooh, history... That's probably what I should've gone with." She showed the card to her brother.
"Oh, I'm going into engineering," Rick said.
"And I'm... majoring in Archaeology. Yeah, I'll be packing a lot of sunscreen."
"You're gonna die out there, Ruby."
"I can't help it! I love old stuff!"
Rick muttered something under his breath about older students being included in that.

Zeek
After checking to make sure all the other groups had been formed, Zeek returned to his own set of students and gave what he hoped was a reassuring smile. "Right then, we'll be walking to the Rashid Building. Follow me!"
As they shuffled behind him, Zeek turned to look over his shoulder. "Oh, why don't we all introduce ourselves on the way! Let's start with... you!" He pointed to the white-haired girl he noticed earlier.

Ruby Vallance
Rick clutched his forehead. "Here we go again..."
"VALLANCE!" Ruby announced to the group, turning around to face them while walking backwards. "Ruby Vallance, future Archaeologist! If you've heard of the big dig a few kilometers south of here, spearheaded by Miss Hera Katsaros, that's where I work."

Zeek
"Wonderful! I teach in the anthropology department, you know, so there's a good chance you end up seeing a lot of me. How about the gentleman next to you?"

Ruby Vallance
Her brother halfheartedly raised his hand. "Rick Vallance. Engineering."

"Oh wow, a sibling pair... fascinating! Are you two twins, then?"

Ruby Vallance
"Twins? Noo, he's 19 and I'm 16. Both freshmen, though." The fact that they assumed she was Rick's age put a spring to her step. Maybe I'll fit in after all!

Zeek
"...Huh. Well, alright then, it's nice to meet you both! Next?"
"Harvey Sherman, I'm a chem major."
"Isam Abdullah, probably doing history.
"Zainab Rushdie, here for computer science."
"Erica Gladwell, music theory."
"George Toomer, I'm also thinking of computer science."
"Ali Tajir, still undecided."
"Ahmad Talib, maybe doing biology."
"Duha Mahmoud, hopefully double-majoring in physics and creative writing."
"Gary Wailon, undecided. Maybe business I guess."
"Aisha Dawud, philosophy."
"Nina Silviana, sociology."
"Brooke Bulmash, architecture."
"Hussein Eldiaby, uh... accounting I guess? Maybe just finance..."
"Habib Jibril, probably math."
"Caleb Xiao, biology."
"Deborah Leaven, engineering."
"Emily Kokinos, art history."
Zeek finally turned to the last student in the group, a girl with pink hair and a UA cap. "And you?"

Lori Lockhart
Lori looked around the group nervously, heart thumping in her chest. She scribbled down 'Lori Lockhart, history major' and tapped Ruby's shoulder, gesturing to read it out loud for her.
