At the edge of the student crowd, the girl leading the room assignments had just shouted: "Ethan Blake...!"
Ethan felt amused. He had not requested a room; it was obvious that Alexandria Sinclair was adding a layer of fun to his first day, forcing the university experience upon him. Still, with his typical calm, he approached the podium and accepted the assignment.
He was lined up with other freshmen and was soon guided to his new room, which he would have to share with two others. As he walked the halls, he couldn't help but reflect. He had yearned for this dorm life, the cliché that Vincent had stolen from him.
Ethan thought with irony: "I didn't ask for this. Alexandria is amusing herself at my expense."
[Hahaha! Didn't you want the 'real' university experience, Champion? Now you can pretend to be poor again, with two roommates and a shared bathroom. It's called method acting, enjoy!] The System mocked happily.
