Leos was absolutely amused. However, he definitely wasn't taking her seriously. "You're cute. I think we'll get along fine." Leos praised in a sweet manner, as though he in no way actually considered her a threat. He had no issues in complimenting her, even if she would become insulted by it. What a lovable personality. "Your attitude is becoming. Ava? Adeline? Abigail, was it?" He teased her. He leaned back, against the wall as he eyed her.

"Anyways," He continued on, as though he hadn't of just disregarded her over-confidence and called her cute several times. "I'm thoroughly interested to see what you have to offer to our humble academy." In all honesty, he believed it was likely that she would become quite agitated. But it was something he had no problem with. He honestly found it sweet that she thought she could win a tournament during the first month of her first year at the academy.

Mathias was too eager about the new school year, wrapped up in his thoughts about all of the possibilities. He couldn't wait for the tournament! He couldn't wait to start cooking again! And he had multiple sports matches to look forward to!

"Really?" His eyes practically sparkled upon hearing her answer. "You're from Sinnoh. That's so cool! I lived in Snowpoint for most of my life--but then we moved."

"The tournament...? Rules? Oh! It's double-battles, four pokemon being the maximum amount you can enter." He told her quickly. "My team is all dark-types, but I'm sure we'll get really, really far!" He cheered in an enthusiastic manner. "Although, my bet for this year is on Leos. He's my brother, and is a fourth-year!"

Nikolai had been roaming around campus. Truthfully, he had been quite eager to explore the different facilities. While the campus was fairly huge, he had covered a decent amount of it. He had unpacked mostly all of his belongings, and organized them neatly within his living space. He had brought his Meowstic, Marvin, with him on the brief trip, and now after getting a quick bite to eat, they were on their way back to the dorms. He wasn't all that eager to meet his roommate. Nikolai was a tough and frank person--but he disliked sharing his living spaces with others. He just hoped that his roommate was clean.

He walked into the dorm building and swiftly down the hall, ignoring another first year who he practically steamrolled as he continued towards his room. He looked carefully at the letters. Due to how large each room was, it was tough to arrange more than four onto a single floor. Each room was spacious, which he was glad for. Eventually, he located his room after ascending a flight of stairs. He reached out, twisting the doorknob in order to open the door. A young woman, on the shorter side with black hair, was in the room. He walked in without a word, only greeting her after he shut the door.

"Hello." He was curt. "I am Nikolai."
