He appeared to be heading towards the dorms, but his attitude and body language stated he didnt want to be bothered. Unsure of what to do, seeing as how he was headed there anyways, Salem waited a few steps, thanked the two Senior Vampires, and then followed a few paces behind Maxwell, never once saying a word and instead opting to take in the silence for once in this busy day. The walk was long yet scenic, Salem took note of the local flora and fauna, and began to wonder if they were solely for display or if perhaps they could be for public use as well. Unsure of where he was heading, Salem pulled out his paper that stated his partner and dorm number as well. Maxwell didn't know it, but he was currently guiding Salem to the dorms for the first time, which was less awkward than Salem having to ask about until he inevitably got there. Upon seeing the dorms in the distance, Salem made his way away from Maxwell finally speaking as he hurried past him [Color=598527]"Have a good day! Hopefully I'll see you around more!"[/color] Salem slipped the key out from the envelope and opened the front door for the first time. Upon entering, there was a kitchen to the left with a small hall that opened into the combined dinner and living room. Salems eyes opened up as he noticed the dark wood table, expensive looking couch, flat screen television, two book cases, and a glass display case that could make for a great greenhouse. A sliding glass door opened out onto a small patio fully furnished which then opened out to a small fenced in backyard that looks out into the forest. The view of all the greenery brought a soft smile on Salems face as he took it in before deciding to explore more of the dorm. He found that there are two bedrooms, neither with windows, which made him happy that hed brought along extra equipment. Each had a luxury queen sized bed, small closet, a chest of drawers, a bookcase, and a desk. Each room had an attached bathroom. One however, was smaller than the other, one containing a tub and shower combination and the other only a shower with a glass door. Both have a small linen closet and dark wood cabinents as well as a toilet and sink. Salem noticed his [i]many[/i] trunks sitting about and he proceeded to move them into the room with the tub. Beginning to unload one that was marked '[i]FRAGILE, LIVING CREATURES[/i]', ofcourse almost every chest was marked FRAGILE, but none were wrong. He checked to ensure none of the holes were instructed and then opened up the lid, revealing a bed of leaves and a small brass cage. [Color=598527]"Hey Cricket! Sorry it took me so long to get to you, I had orientation, and then lunch, then there was this duel! Oh and a run in with some seniors who mistook my situation for some thuggery. I'm fine though."[/color] Salem pulled the cage out and placed it on the desk, taking a few of the leaves from the trunk and putting them back into the cage where the cricket resided. As Salem continued to unpack, taking out numerous amount of flowers, plants, and other greenery along with lamps that mimic the suns UVs that plants need to grow, he continued to speak to his cricket [color=598527]"I met some interesting people today, there was a light mage named Aaron, he seemed sweet, although he kinda went missing on me...who knows what happened there...theres a water mage named Lilie, she looks like the moon itself, which if funny given her affinity. I wonder where she went off to as well...oh! Our new roommate is going to be a vampire named Lucan, hes...well...um...I'm not quite sure how to describe him yet. I'm sure we'll all get along just fine though! There! See cricket? Got this room all cozyed up in no time, it just needed a little plant life to brighten it up."[/color] Crawling Ivys ran across the shower rod and the curtain was taken down. Plants that required humidity sat atop the bathroom counter, all the toiletries hidden away in the medicine cabinet, and soft green bath mats decorated the floor. In the room there were planters set above each doorway, with strip UV lights hanging above them and lining the room to cover most every plant that needed it. The cords were hidden amongst the greenery and all met up at several power strips that had times on when to start and stop the lights so that each plant followed a day night cycle as needed. One corner of Salems room was now just a stack of trunks, empty and waiting for use, while his closet and drawers were filled with clothing, jewelry, and tools of his trade. A small laugh escaped his lips as he looked at the room, pleased with his work, and turned to the brass cage once more [color=598527]"Cricket, I think this is going to be a good year."[/color]
