Ryou had just begun to unpack his stuff as the announcement went off about the commencement speech. [i]I wonder if I'll go this year.[/i] He continued unpacking and organizing as he heard footsteps coming down the hallway. He tried to ignore them, expecting they would go past. As they got closer the sound of the dog's panting picked up again. [i]That must be whoever snuck a dog in here. I wonder how long they'll be able to keep it hidden.[/i] As the steps continued he could tell it was likely a woman of sorts. Her gait was lighter and matched that of a typical woman. [i]Well there's no way that's my roomate.[/i] As the footsteps got louder he ignored them, but they were slowing down as they approached his room. [i]I wonder if she'll be one of my neighbors.[/i] The foorsteps continued right up to his door. He was thoroughly confused. Maybe he guessed the gender wrong. A person's gait isn't terribly reliable. Maybe she's lost, there are some ditsy people around. At that moment the door began to open and Ryou was shocked to see a girl walk through the door. [i]Maybe she just came to say hi. How did she know I was here? Why did she bring her bag?[/i] He stood and watched as she carried her belongings to the other bed and sat down on it. His mind blank now just waiting for her to do something. She set her dog down on her lap and simply asked if he minded dogs and that she was a good girl. [i]She looks like a good girl. The dog is a good girl not her. Well she probably is too, but what is this? They don't normally pair students. It has happened a few times before. Maybe she's lost lets check that.[/i] 

He nervously replied with a slight sweat forming. [b]"Umm, I don't mind dogs at all. That looks like a very good girl. The dog, she's a good girl. Anyways are you sure this is your room? Can I read your paper?"[/b] He walked over and looked at her paper and sure enough it was his dorm and room 327. [i]How is this? Is this good? She'll be a distraction. I have school and probably assassination. Is she an assassin? Will she be distracting? But she's a girl. I get to spend a year rooming with a girl.[/i] By this point he was visibly sweating. [i]No matter. I'll figure this out later. I need to be polite. It'd be bad if I got on her bad side. I have heard about girls bad sides.[/i] Ryou turned back towards the girl. [b]"Umm, I'm Ryouta, Souma Ryouta. Are you planning on going to the commencement speech?"[/b]
