Normally she would have probably been quite overjoyed somebody shown concern for her well being, but not now. Some wounds were too deep and opened all too easily. "Yeah, I'll be fine." she said back before she wrapped herself in the blanket. She slept like a log in a minute, the wear of the initiation at least giving her the mercy of a dreamless sleep, without forcing her to relive her nightmarish past again like so many times before.

When she woke up it was still dark outside, but she didn't feel like sleeping any more. Dragging herself out of the bed, she shuddered as her feet touched the cold floor and quickly found her slippers. Searching for something more decent to wear, she found the school uniform. Awful thing. She hated skirts, and the boring color pattern reminiscent of a wallpaper didn't help at all. And the jacket was so bloody tight she was wondering whether the harness for her wings would even fit under it. At least she had enough presence of mind to get one a notch bigger than her size. Slipping into it, she hissed. With how much she had to tighten the thing, she just knew her back would be in constant hell.

Looking around, she confirmed the rest of her teammates were still asleep, so she grabbed her scroll and headed out to the hall not to wake them. Opening the files she was sent after the initiation, she found their schedule and had a look. It seemed a bit packed, but even with her electives, it still left the last day before weekend ending an hour after noon. Yawning, she connected to the web. Now that she knew when she was free, it was time to look for a way to get some extra finances. Her savings could cover the first two years, but with her weapon project and need for much purer dust than the school would give her, she better start earning some lien [i]now[/i].

An hour later, the Sun was already above the horizon and she sent the application to the place she chose. Checking the time, she noticed the cafeteria would be open by now. She started walking in the direction of breakfast, but froze midstep and gone back, deciding to check if someone else was awake already.
