Elliot decided he would make an attempt to come off much less geeky or strange. He didn't need his roommate to know exactly who he was quite yet, they did just meet after all. He wouldn't want anybody to get to know him so quickly, but just by the way he dressed and his whole nature, it sort of happened a lot. He straightened up when Lonnie asked him about his name, and he spoke clearly. 

[color=6b3f07]"I'm Elliot. I uh," [/color]He tried to cover up his stutter by clearing his throat.[color=6b3f07] "I guess I'm your roommate. I came here through the scholarship program."[/color]

As soon as he noticed that he still had his camera around his neck, he mentally cursed. [i]Well, there goes that. God dammit, coulda been so close to getting on good terms with a popular guy, might've done me some good. Ghaaa, screw it, I s'pose I can get through this myself, then.[/i]
