It didn't take very long for the young Souls to fall back into a resting state. Her eyes drooped closed, and the shuffling of her new roommate and the stifled voices of the kids still getting to know one another outside was just the white noise she needed to tune out the silence that would otherwise keep her from sleep. But her rest was once again interrupted by a loud crashing noise somewhere underneath them in the house, causing her to flinch ever so slightly.

[color=9e0b0f][b]"Oh, fuck it."[/b][/color] Souls said aloud, deciding that the universe obviously didn't want her to sleep. Without wasting another moment, she swung her legs over the edge of the bed and sat to face the young girl, seeing her putting a number of notebooks and pencils into drawers. Without missing a beat, Souls pulled a small package of cigarettes out of her pocket along with a lighter. [color=9e0b0f][b]"Hope you don't mind if I light up in here."[/b][/color] she said. It wasn't a question as much as it was a statement, a fact that became apparent when Souls lit the cigarette before the girl could reply. Souls tucked the cigarette between her teeth and sucked in, before letting the smoke flow out of her mouth. She proceeded to hold the small fag in her mouth while she dug into her backpack and pulled something out: a clay ashtray, decorated with the Yin Yang symbol painted on. The poor craftsmanship of the thing made it obvious that it had been made by a child. She placed the tray on the desk between the beds and tapped the small amount of ash that had gathered at the tip of the fag onto the tray, before shoving it back into her mouth. She then extended a claw to the window, shoving it in between the windowsill and the window, before using the leverage to pop it open, letting the cool air in, and the small amount of smoke out. 

Souls took another drag from the cigarette, before pulling it out of her mouth and holding it between her fingers. [b][color=9e0b0f]
"The name's Souls, by the way."[/color][/b] she said. [b][color=9e0b0f]"So I'm gonna go out on a limb here and guess that you got the power to control water, judgin' by that there floatin' baloonless water baloon. And if that's the case, I've got a question I've always wondered: can you use that power to pick locks? I mean, if you just get a small cup of agua, and shove it into a keyhole, shouldn't you be able to push all the little mechanisms to the side? Make, like, a water key?"[/color][/b]
