[h2]Natsuki Sumiko, Starblazer[/h2]

Everyone was introducing themselves, it all looked pretty great! ... That one girl with the purple hair and the hood, though... she looked like she was kind of shy and adorable... That made one solid fact rise in Sumiko's mind. She'd have to have a talk with her! The best way to help someone shy was to try and get them out of their shell and introduce them to people, but she'd have to be careful and try and work out what kind of stuff she liked! That way she knew what type of people she might open up to more! But if it turned out she didn't need help, that was fine too, it didn't mean that Sumiko didn't want to be friends to her! ... But first off she wanted to meet everybody. Some people were already introducing themselves, and they all sounded like a lot of fun!

"It's nice to meet you all!" declared the brunette girl brightly, as she glanced across the faces of what would be her schoolmates, her gaze ending on the boy who'd introduced himself directly to her.

"You want to be the strongest just like Futeki-san, huh?" she said, cocking her head to one side slightly, "Well, I guess, in addition to wanting to make lots of friends, I'd like to help everybody and be a hero one day!"

Sumiko gave an exuberant nod to cap off her enthusiastic declaration of her goals for her school life.

[h2]Clarabelle Halloway, the Ethereal Dollmaker[/h2]

"..."

The teacher, Mako, was talking to her. Clarabelle couldn't particularly understand why, given almost no-one ever did. She'd simply have to reject her. She wasn't her friend, after all. Only her dolls were her friends. So, the small pale girl remained quiet for several moments, unmoving and without speaking.

"... They're my friends," she said, finally. Her voice betrayed no emotion at all, her expression not even twitching. Mako wasn't a doll, so the teacher couldn't be her friend. As other teachers approached, Clarabelle simply looked down at her feet, tugging her hat down. It was taking too long. She just wanted to get inside with her dolls. That was all she cared about right now. The more time she spent out here, the more unpleasant it became. Why did she have to wait?

It was pointless.
