As much as she tried too, Odette simply could not bring herself to talk to someone or to move from her seat. Uncertainty and nervousness ate away at her mind. What should she do? How would she go about introducing herself? Would a simple hi do? Everyone already seemed to be talking and she was left there alone, without someone to talk to. It'd be both rude and annoying to simply interject into someone's conversation suddenly, wouldn't it? The more she thought, the more her face became locked in a cool glare, not even realizing she was doing it. She had been so caught up in her thoughts, she hadn't even saw the person approach.

Odette reacted on instinct. She wasn't used to other people, and definitely wasn't used to other people being able to touch her. As soon as Kyoko's hand touched her shoulder, she'd feel her hand suddenly become cold and meet a little resistance before going [i]through[/i] the rest of her body. Odette's own body froze in sheer terror and embarrassment as the girl fell through her, landing on the ground in not the most comfortable of positions. If it was possible for a ghost to die of embarrassment, this would be the part where it happened.

...human? She thought she was human? That meant she was doing a good job, then! A small surge of happiness, followed immediately by embarrassment again. She had just screwed up any sort of that thought being true. Judging from a few other students they had saw the entire thing, but judging from their looks and a few of their conversations she wasn't exactly making the best of impressions. She hadn't meant to do it! She had...just been startled....

[i]"Hey, no need to be so nervous. Your face's going all stiff, you know?"[/i]

The new boys comment didn't help either. Stiff? Her face was stiff? Was she obviously that nervous? She was at least trying not to appear as such, but was she failing? As she continued to think, she turned her cool glare towards him, wearing a harsh frown. Right, nervous. She couldn't appear nervous. She had to do something. Right! Introducing herself would definitely make he seem not nervous. Just a small hello. It'd also clear up any sort of misunderstanding! She could manage that, right?

[color=ec008c][i]"Hello! I am Odette, glad to meet you!"[/i][/color] That was simple enough! Even she could manage that, right? Just a simple sentence would be enough!

[color=ec008c]"...Hell..."[/color]

Unfortunately, a majority of the words were caught in her throat, and came out jumbled in a not so nice sounding fashion. The glare she was still giving people and the otherwise general cool aura around her didn't help.
