Erika approaches her room, what kind of character awaits her beyond the door?
Erika: "Good evening…"
?: "You're finally here. I've been waiting all day in here for you."
Erika: "Have you really? I'm so sorry. My friend and I were just exploring the campus. I should've came here to greet you first."
?: "Ahaha. I'm joking. I only just got back myself a few minutes ago. Looks like you'll be fun to tease."
Erika: "Oh. Well that's a relief."
?: "Haha. My name's Esmarie Chavez. Pleasure to meet you."
Erika: "I'm Erika Tohsaka. The pleasure is all mine."
Esmarie: "There's only a handful of 3rd-year transfers. That means you must be quite the genius."
Erika: "Hehe. I don't know about that."
Esmarie: "I'm onto you, I can tell you're strong. All those calluses on your hand don't match that pretty face. Which means you have both talent and hard work. Oh, I'm already envious."
Erika: "You're not the only one who knows flattery."
Esmarie: "Oh yeah? Let's hear it."
Erika: 'I've never had a roommate. But I'm sure this'll be a ton of fun!'

Students are up between 6-7 a.m, others get up even earlier. The cafeteria opens at 7, so students try to get there as early as possible for breakfast. They can't miss a meal, otherwise it's going to be bad for them when they start training and conditioning. Doing so on an empty stomach results in light-headedness and the chance of passing out. Erika and Dakota meet up at 7, along with their new roommates.
Austin: "Nice to meet you two, the name's Austin."
Erika introduces herself while Esmarie shakes in disbelief holding Erika's arm.
Erika: "What's wrong?" She whispers.
Esmarie: "Your friend got a hell of a roommate. Everybody knows Austin, he's one of the most popular guys if not the most popular in our year. And not to mention, he's hot!"
Erika: "Wow!"
Dakota observes the situation: 'This guy is acting totally different than last night. So he acts like the cool type in public, huh?'
Esmarie introduces herself, still in awe. She has to stop herself from asking to shake his hand. After getting acquainted, they head to the west-wing cafeteria, where a hellish line awaits them.
Austin: "This is how it is, and we're early."
Dakota: "So it's worse later on…"
Esmarie: "What're your guys' classes? We might share a couple."
Erika: "Me and Esmarie share a few."
Austin: "That's lucky."
Erika: "And me and Dakota have all the same classes."
Austin: "No way."
Esmarie: "That's crazy!"
Dakota: "Haha. Yeah, a total coincidence."
Austin: "Well, here's my schedule."
Esmarie: "Hm. Let's see, let's see."
Students all take lecture classes first and practical classes after. They're taught be an array of professors and Hunters, so there's plenty of classes for the abundant number of students.
Esmarie: "Oh, we have the same history and battle theory class."
Austin: "Nice. If I'm having trouble keeping up, I'll ask you for help."
Esmarie: "Haha, if anything I'll be asking you for help."
Erika: "Are you excited, Dakota?"
Dakota: "Yeah, I'm ready to eat. The food better be good."
Erika: "Not about the food, dummy. It's our first day. Are you excited meeting new people and training to become a Hunter?"
Dakota: "Oh. As a matter of fact, I am. I'm ready."
Erika: "Good. I am too."
Dakota: "But before anything, breakfast."
Erika: "Hehe. Yep."
