stone affair {eventide}

[Anna Demidov]

"Well, here they all are," Anna said, after digging through a bunch of boxes to find her books. They took up one whole box. Most were in good condition, and about half were paperback. Some were just in tatters, obviously read and then read, over and over again, only for Anna's pleasure. She had spent a good portion of her vacations just spent with her books. They were something she really enjoyed. She also enjoyed running, and had made mental plans to go to the gym to just run where it was warm. "So, will you help me out? I was a bit more concerned with meeting up with you then getting this whole thing straightened out."

Her smile was soft and kind, while she began to unpack her clothes, sorting them out by the type- shirts, shorts, jeans, dress pants, underwear, and the like. She had enough, but not what most people would consider an excess amount of clothes. The same went for her shoes, though the sacrifice had to dig to find them, too. Her toiletries were what she had put away last night, thankfully, so she stayed clean and fresh. Her ears and tail were constantly moving, listening and tuning in to the sound of things moving. "Take any that you like," she said, motioning to the box of books. Evee was, when Anna looked up at her, absolutely adorable. She was delicate in her frame and her face shape, simply precious, but at the same time fierce. It was an odd attraction, Anna thought, but she would keep it in check for now.

She watched the girl mill about the room unpacking clothes and what not. Evee was intrigued by her movements, they were soft and airy. Even her ears and tail moved softly along with her as she moved around the room adjusting the room and making it homey. Evee actually found it rather cute. She gave Anna a small smile when she looked back at her. Finally realizing she had been talking to her this whole time. She stared at Anna with a wide eyed curious look. Catching a bit of what she was saying she nodded and began to make her way to the box with all the books but she paused for a moment thinking.

"I'll be right back." She mumbled out heading toward the door opening it up and leaving quickly. She walked down the dorm hallways quickly looking for her room number. Finally she had made her way to it, Evee took out her key unlocked the door and walked inside. Her room was already unpacked and rather organized due to her being here for a few more days than Anna. She quickly striped her clothes off and grabbed new more comfortable ones, A loose pink jersey tee and black shorts. She slipped on her flip flops took her formal hair accessories out. Tying her bangs back in a small pony tail to get them out of the way. She left her room locking it behind her and made her way back to Anna's room. She knocked on the door lightly and waited for the girl to answer.

Anna smiled, nodding, not realizing that her fighter was gone until the door had shut. She sighed and went back to her work, continuing to sort out her clothes bit by bit. Anna jumped at the sound of the knock, opening the door only to see her fighter. "Back so soon?" she grinned. It was a nice appreciative look that Anna gave Evee, complimenting her on the outfit. "I like that top." She was sure that it wouldn't fit her, but when they went on a shopping spree maybe the two could find something like it, in town.

"Why the sudden change?" she asked her, turning to put her mind back to the task at hand. Boxes. Gah. It shouldn't take all that long. But Anna had a tendency to get side-tracked with boring things, and well, packing/unpacking was just that. Anna let out a small sound of annoyance, throwing the now empty box toward the door.

[Eventide Infinit]

She flipped her hair and smiled a giddy smile at the other girl for the first time. "Well i figured if i'm gonna help you i might as well be comfortable." She said with a giggle prancing over to the box with the books and beginning to sort through them with a smile. She looked up at Anna for a moment and smiled "Oh and thanks i got this top from a store back at home."

[Anna Demidov]

Anna was happy just to see her fighter in a much better mood than she had been in before. "Now you know why it took me so long to get here," she joked, gving Evee a friendly nudge. The sacrifice began to fold her clothes and put them away, thankful for the girl's help. It was just plain great to see her happy and smiling, instead of cold and more or less despondent. "I really like it! We should go shopping this weekend. Hopefully you don't have other plans..?" Anna said, hoping beyond all hope that Eventide, in fact, did not. "I should probably put some comfortable clothes on.. bah, I'm far too lazy," she laughed, giving the girl a playful nudge. "So where did you grow up?"

[Eventide Infinit]

"Oh." She breathed when Anna asked her where she was from. "Uh..." Her face became a bit bitter. "A small town not to far from here..." She mumbled as she went through the books. Going quite after that. Finally looking back up at the girl and smiling a bit "Where'd you grow up?" She asked trying to lighten up.

[Anna Demidov]

Anna knew she had touched one of those subjects that weren't meant to be. The girl gave a small nod, deciding that it would be unwise for her to continue along that path. "Well, that's cool. I grew up by Scranton, Wilkes Barre.." Her voice trailed off for a few moments. "My family lived in the suburbs, but I knew those cities like the back of my hand. At least, the shopping districts." She gave Evee a small grin. Perhaps the girl would like to go shopping, a new pair of shoes made everything a little bit better. Her clothes were slowly cleared off her bed, as Anna took her time, making sure that everything had its place.

[Eventide Infinit]

Evee got up and placed some of the books into the book shelves. And then went back to the spot beside the box. Going through the books once again. She smiled at Anna "That's cool!, Wish i had grown up in a place like that." She watched Anna put away her clothes she smiled "You have some cute stuff." She stated leaning back and admiring the room with a smile.

[Anna Demidov]

Anna watched as she fixed up the books, grateful that her teammate was helping her. Besides, she was sweet, although Evee just needed to warm up to her in the beginning, and vice versa. "Thanks," Anna laughed, getting up to place the box by the door. Well, that wasn't so bad. She had most of her stuff put away, or at least organized. "You've moved in already?" she asked Evee, her tail curling as she walked toward her in her little room. At the same time, Anna had the desire to hug the girl and yet keep her distance.

[Eventide Infinit]

She looked up at the girl as she approached her. It was weird viewing her from this angle. Evee wondered if this was how everyone viewed her. She smiled softly at Anna and nodded "Yep!, I've been here for 3 days already so i've had plenty of time to set up and get comfy." She said with a small giggle going back to sorting through the books.

"Ooh..." She cooed as she came upon a particularly interesting one. She opened it up to the first page and began to skim through it. "hmm..." She pursed her lips as she read. Concentrating on the book and what kind of story it was. After a few moments she looked up at Anna and asked "Can i borrow this?"

[Anna Demidov]

Well, it was good to know that the girl was settled in. That gave Anna more time to get to know her before their classes truly started. Which would be next week, hopefully. "That's good! How's your roommate?" she asked, piling all the empty boxes by the doors. Anna smiled as she watched Evee read. Anna was a moderately fast reader, but she never got bored when it came to rereading books that she already had. "Of course!" She offered her fighter a smile, peeking at the book. "I liked that one. I have others by the same author. He writes really well..." The sacrifice turned to look at her box of books, deciding that later she could find some for Evee. She sat on her bed, smoothing out the comforter. "Anyone here catch your eye so far?" the girl asked her, tail curling up.
