[u]Kiara[/u]

She looked over at Sparks, smiling in pleasant surprise to see another helping her out. She hadn't expected it, truth be told. [color=598527]"A pleasure to meet you Sparks,"[/color] She looked over her shoulder and smiled at his sister in an attempt to relax the girl, [color=598527]"Bits. I'm Kiara. Don't let the all black get up scare you into staying back there, I don't bite. Much."[/color] She returned her focus to Sparks as he spoke and shrugged as best she was able without jarring the injured student between them. [color=598527]"Well, that's the only thing separating us from them isn't it? We have a purpose. We help people, we protect others. We don't seek selfish gains, we seek to only help humanity as best we're able. Otherwise, what are we but the largest, most organized, group of rogue alchemists that beats down all other competition? I don't know about the rest of our class, but I'd rather die knowing that I gave my last breath trying to fix the world, not make it worse."[/color]

She looked up at the voice calling to them and replied in kind, an easy cheerful tone in her voice. It was nice to see even more students at least interested in helping out their fellow classmate. Even if there was a distinct chance he didn't agree with her views (Sparks and perhaps Bits both being something of a rarity, she found.) it meant that he at least had some empathy. That was a start. [color=598527]"Well, you know what they say. Five is a crowd but six is a party! I'm not opposed to you coming along at least."[/color]

[b]Maeve[/b]

Maeve was done with her own food and was preparing to leave the cafeteria when Elliot walked in and caught her attention. She vaguely remembered Elliot being in her class, which made her even more interesting. She recognized the type immediately, it helping that she was very similar. Rough, violent, and likely having her speech speckled with curses. [color=ed1c24][i]They're always fun. A good chance that I could end up in a fight with her, but what's wrong with that? Besides, it may give whoever becomes her partner an idea of her abilities. So really, I'm helping others if we somehow offend each other. Not to mention, it'll be a blast.[/i][/color] Her course firmly set, only to help anyone who was watching of course, Maeve made her way over to the small pale girl, taking a seat across from her. 

[color=ed1c24]"I'm Maeve. Couldn't help but notice you sitting here and decided to come visit, after all, our instructor did say to get to know some of our peers better and I don't believe we've ever spoken to each other. So how do you feel about this entire 'you're about to become hounds of AMRO' thing? Nervous? Excited? An odd mix of the two?[/color]
