Mixup

Joshua put his hand out awkwardly to greet his roommate, who dropped her bags at the door; before either had gotten any introductions at all, a third girl walked up.

"Hey, this is..." She read the room number off. Joshua and the first girl nodded.

"Shit, maybe they assigned three of us to a room. Guess we'll have to go talk to them to get one of us reassigned." The new girl said, Joshua noticing a very prominent neck tat peeking up from the collar of the girl's uniform.

They all had brought their bags into the room before another knock came, Joshua opening the door, feeling just a bit nervous at the fact that he would be rooming with two girls (potentially). Again, the girl asked if this was the right room. All three of them affirmed it as so.

And then there were 4 in the room.

After a bit of chatting, everyone knew one another, and they were all ready to go to the administration to sort-out the mess. Yes, technically, four persons might live in a room together, that was true, seeing as the beds had space for bunks. But everyone knew it was more widely accepted to have two girls to a room. Joshua laughed silently, supposing that they could have two girls to a room....since Joshua wouldn't be falling under their jurisdiction. He kept that joke to himself, however.

Joshua checked each girl out, learning more about them as they placed their bags down, chatted, and walked the campus to the administration building.

Ethene was the girl with the noticeable snake tattoo on her neck. Her bracelets of crystals and semi-frequent reference to 'the energy' on the campus made Joshua place her into the the category of, uh, alternative. Joshua pegged her as the 'mystic'. She wasn't unattractive, for sure, but the fact of the matter was she was pale, quite abrasive whenever anyone came to mentioning the rules, and most certainly wasn't your average student. Joshua could swear her nose ring wasn't permitted, but he wasn't going to say that to her. The uniform she wore was baggy enough to hide her figure, but she looked attractive.

Altogether, Joshua made the assessment that Ethene wasn't one to rat if she found anything out.

Nahual was the first girl Joshua got to meet, and perhaps most noticeable about her was the fact of her height and build. Even Joshua's semi-impressive build for a 'female' was dwarfed by the woman's close to Amazonian build. Joshua pegged her as the 'jock'. Native American in origin, she was very proud of the fact, and was frustrated by the potential delay to her workout schedule. Nevertheless, she seemed upbeat, enjoying mocking the rather unathletic and intellectual environment. Alexa might've liked her. Joshua found something to like in the fact that he was at boob-level with her. Her hair was nice too, especially with the beads, which Ethene was happy to compliment.

Altogether, Joshua made the assessment that Nahual also wasn't one to rat if she found anything out.

Huguette was the last girl, and well, Joshua's description of her couldn't miss either her height and energy. She was positively vitriolic about the whole room mixup, only stirring the pot with her bubbly British accent. It was hard to describe, but the short woman had a certain spunk to her. Joshua pegged her as the 'expat'. Her tie, in perhaps a trend amongst the four, was non-regulation, colored according to the London branch campus of St. Margaret's, instead of this one. She made clear that while she was a bookworm, she also loved makeup and fashion.

In conclusion, Joshua thought Huguette also wasn't one to rat if she found anything out.

"Well, hopefully we can get this all sorted out once we get there." Joshua said as they continued walking towards the main building. "Ethene, I, uh, really like your neck tat."

Joshua facepalmed at that. He had felt like flirting, for why, he didn't know. She smiled all the same.

"'ppreciate it! Eth is fine by the way, I hate the fact my nerdy ass parents thought naming me after a chemical would be cool."

Joshua nodded, and held the door for the group of four. Ahead awaited the administrations office.
