[indent]Leo smiled in approval - inwardly, anyway. He didn't let it show on his face asides from a slight lifting of his eyebrows. It looked like he'd be getting along quite easily with Talia. He thought about those rules with consideration for his partner in mind, but he still expected a bit of resistance, particularly about bringing other people inside. If Talia was a social butterfly, then it would have presented a bit of a problem, but from what he'd seen, she was fairly reclusive, so that was no longer a major concern. 

On to present matters, she took up his invitation to eat out, and maybe look around town. She was an adventurous sort, despite her silent exterior, hm? In fact, her 'silent exterior' was quickly giving way to someone who was much peppier and excitable. It looked like she really liked the idea of going out to town.

"Okay then. We'll have a quick bite at this cafe of yours, and then we'll have a look around town. How does that sound?" As far as bonding activities went, it wasn't a bad idea. If she was more in her element in the city rather than in the academy, then there was no better place to get better acquainted with her.

Of course, it was no fun if that was all he would be going there for. He might as well enjoy himself along the way.[/indent][hr][@Redmarshmellow][hr][hr]

[indent]Alice nodded, though she was hesitant to leave her, she recognized that being too forceful about the issue probably wasn't the best idea. If she pushed to hard, it might backfire and antagonize her further. Mikayla didn't seem like the kind of person that took well to being coddled. 

That being the case, she still wished she could go with her. It was such a small thing, just the simple act of opening the door to new room for the first time, but the thought of having to do alone that which was meant to be done as a pair didn't sit right with her, even if the circumstances were beyond her ability to control. 

At first, she wasn't sure if she should bring Mikayla's things with her, but after a moment of deliberation decided to ease her load a bit. "Alright, I'll be bringing your stuff as well. Catch you later," she said with as genuine a smile as she could manage - which meant the smile came quite easily - as she closed the door behind her, the volunteer student following afterwards. He still had that jacket over his shoulder. 

Actually, the more she thought about it, the more embarrassing it became. That was a piece of clothing with her face on it, being slung over a schoolmates back, a schoolmate who was still eagerly waiting for her to sign it, judging from his facial expression.

She hoped to god that he wasn't actually planning on wearing it everywhere. The thought of that happening colored her ears a tad red now.

In a short while, they arrived at her room. Once inside she turned to the volunteer, and finally signed the thing, and hopefully he could leave before her ears could get any redder. The ecstatic look on his face almost made her forget exactly what he was holding in his hand. Still, it looked like he wasn't going away anytime soon, as he then informed her that she needed to choose her elective. Of course, given that Monster Hunting was mandatory now, it was obvious what her choices would be: that, and Music. Now she just needed Mikayala . . .

"We're going to have to go back to the infirmary," she sighed; why didn't he bring this up while they were there earlier? His being late aside, this guy was being highly unprofessional, to the point where it was grating on her nerves slightly. 

If he caught up on her annoyance, he didn't show it, but their trip back to the infirmary was rather quick.

"Mikayla, I'm back! Here're your papers for your electives. Looks like this poor guy over here can't leave unless we sign it," she announced cheerily.[/indent][hr][@karamonnom]
