Leagsaidh was caught slightly off-guard at the girl's brusque introduction. Nevertheless, she took it in stride.

"It looks more difficult than it is." She giggled "It's pronounced 'lek-say'. I assume I have the pleasure of speaking to Miss Alice Murray?"

The Irish girl stood back and appraised her roommate. She was tall, about a head taller than herself, and dark-skinned. She was pretty in a fierce way, although she could do with a bit less scowling and a bit more smiling. Her body was lithe but muscular, not unlike that of a football player or a runner. Leagsaidh's head was about the same level as Alice's buxom bosom, and she had this very Amazonian feel. A South American, doubtlessly - Brazilian from the accent. Leagsaidh decided she quite liked this girl, despite her vulgarity.

"It's nice to meet you, Miss Alice. Or would you prefer Miss Murray?" Leagsaidh gave her a sweet smile as she spoke. It never hurt to make a good first impression and if she was to be sharing a room with this girl all year, it was crucial they got along.

"I was wondering if you could help me. You see, I'm new here and I don't know where the homerooms are. Would you mind if I were to walk with you to class?"
