As good as she was putting on a smile and seemed to enjoy company, Brynn rather preferred and enjoyed her solitude. Having a roommate really wasn't ideal in her book, but it is what it is. It'd been a long morning waiting for Kazuma to leave the apartment before Brynn made her way out with Duke, who had been leaning against their room door staring her down for the last hour now. It was past the time to take him out for a walk. The girl walked up the door and grasped the handle, raising an eyebrow at Duke when he whined softly. [color=#ABAB84][b]"Having a little trouble today, D?"[/b][/color] the girl frowned slightly as she bent down to grab poor boy around his lower abdomen, hoisting him up into a standing position. The dog let out a low grumble, then a hefty sigh as he looked up at his girl and wagged his tail slightly. [color=#ABAB84][b]"There you go, buddy. Let's go [i]outside[/i]."[/b][/color] And just like that, he was a puppy again with a little hop in his step as he trotted to the front door. Brynn half-smiled at Duke, walking after him as she snagged his leash and a doggy bag from off the counter, stepping outside to take him out for the morning. Once that was finished, Brynn brought Duke back inside and fed him a bowl of kibble before going off to take a hot shower. As much as she could have just stayed in the comfort of the warm shower, she knew classes needed to be attended. And if she didn't make the classes, she knew she'd have at least one person coming to drag her out of her apartment. She dressed herself in one of her favorite outfits, was sure to give Duke one last pet before heading out to the door. Just as she got there though, she heard a gods-awful sound from behind her. Brynn turned to see Duke coughing up water looking guilty up at Brynn, or at the very least embarrassed. Whatever the poor boy was feeling, it wasn't good. Brynn pinched the bridge of her nose, sighing heavily as she dropped her hand back down. [color=#ABAB84][b]"You just don't want me to leave, do ya, D?"[/b][/color] The old dog wouldn't even look at her. [i]Poor guy[/i]. Brynn walked over to him and pat him on his side gently before wandering down the hall to grab a towel from the cupboard. [color=#ABAB84][b]"You gotta be careful, Duke. Can't be drinking your water so fast, bud."[/b][/color] The girl walked back over to her dog and cleaned up his mess, spraying it and finishing it off with some disinfectant cleaner before tossing the towel into her room's hamper. As Brynn headed for the door, she checked all her pockets to make sure she had everything she needed. The girl snagged her canvas backpack before exiting the apartment, giving her pup one last 'be good' look as she closed the door. For the first time this morning, she checked her phone and realized she had a few messages waiting for her. The two main ones that caught her eye were Chris and Greyson. She opened them both and checked the time stamps. [b]10 minutes ago.[/b] [i]'Shit.'[/i] They were probably already down there. She didn't bother replying. Brynn jogged downstairs and sprinted her way towards Apollo's, waving at a few passing friends along the way. [sub][h3][b][u]Present...[/u][/b][/h3][/sub] Brynn pushed her way through the entrance doors to Apollo's Cafe, narrowly missing a seemingly anxious student who pushed past her to get out the door. The girl stared after them a moment, thinking to herself, [i]'The charm never stops around here,'[/i] before turning back to the small crowd of people inside. Brynn headed for the counter up front while keeping her eyes open to try spotting Chris or Grey. She turned around and slowly walked backwards as she looked outside and spotted Greyson walking up with Haley and David. She smiled to herself and went to turn back around only to get run into, coffee spilling all down her front. Brynn gasped and threw her hands up, looking down at the floor. And her shoes. Her poor shoes.. that stain wasn't going to come out very easily, if at all. All the girl could think to herself was [i]'Wooow.. first Duke, then this? What next, today?'[/i] Brynn turned her attention up to the person who'd run into her when she heard the familiar voice utter a 'sorry', only to realize it was [i]Chris[/i]. Brynn quickly took the napkins given to her and started dabbing at her shirt, mumbling, [color=#ABAB84][b]"Was my fault, Chris. I'm sorry. Wasn't watching where I was going. I-I'll get you new ones."[/b][/color] Brynn stopped dabbing the napkin on her shirt and bent down, picking up the spent coffee cups and lids from the floor with an apologetic grin. [hr][hr] [center][h3]A David Almas, Greyson Davies and Haley Asher Collab[/h3][/center] [right][i][color=00eddd]Location:[/color][/i] Haley's Dorm [@HaleyTheRandom] ; Apollo's Cafe [i][color=darkgreen]Interactions:[/color][/i] Chris [@alimariloasun]; David [@Obscurus]; Brynn [i][color=#3EA99F]Mentions:[/color][/i] Beau [@Crimson Flame] ; Vivian [@Altered Tundra][/right] Greyson chuckled and returned a fist-bump back to his friend. [color=#3EA99F][b]“No, mate. You’re fine. Was just giving you a hard time, is all. Just seems everyone wakes before dawn anymore.”[/b][/color] The young man made a slightly confused face when David called Haley ‘moonshine’, shrugging it off as he looked down the hall at the monstrous canine gnawing on the door handle to someone else’s apartment. [color=#3EA99F][b]“Tha’s going to be quite a problem. Good luck to whoeva’ on get’in into their flat late-uh,”[/b][/color] Greyson rubbed the back of his neck firmly as he chewed on his lower lip, taking out his cell from his pocket to quickly shoot Brynn a ‘[i]Hey B. Where are you? May wanna give Zo a heads up she’s gonna wanna have maintenance fix her flat door before she gets back to it.[/i]’ text before turning back to look to his two friends. With Greyson stepping out into the hall, Haley expected for life to return to its perfect balance and leave her to her loneliness and potion making. Scribbling down quick notes again, it took her a moment to realize that she actually knew the second voice. When David offered to go to Apollos, Haley looked at him for a brief second as she nodded her head. [color=00eddd]”Yeah, sure. Gimme just a sec.”[/color] Shoving her notes along with the currently used vials and boxes of ingredients into the top drawer of her desk, the young woman walked out of her room and looked towards Greyson. [color=00eddd]”Did you wanna come to Apollos too, or did you have some other plans?”[/color] Greyson turned his attention to Haley, nodding with a soft smile.[color=#3EA99F][b]“You were the only thing stopping me from going in the first place, luv. Le’s get on with it, shall we?.”[/b][/color] The young man clapped a hand on David’s shoulder as he took a step back out into the hallway, clicking his tongue twice before turning to wander off with Sheba at his heels. David watched how Greyson’s pet was completely obedient, and then at how his own, was feasting on the metal door handle of apartment 2G. Wasn’t that the Zeus’ kids place? He put his left hand on the back of his head. At least there hadn’t been a fight. He was glad, but also left with a faint disappointment that comes with anti-climactic events. Suddenly the giant head of Dusk pushed David aside somewhat and looked into Hayley’s room. [color=darkgreen]”I think he’s hoping you’ll bring Nala along.”[/color] There wasn’t much that animated Dusk. Haley’s dog was one among few things. As the three pet owners walked on through the hallway, David rubbed some more sleep from his eyes. He had hoped to be just with Haley. He didn’t have anything against Greyson. It was just that he was waking up, and preferred his comfort zone. [Color=darkgreen][i]What a rollercoaster[/i][/color] Greyson headed out and down the sidewalk, taking a short cut across the grass field towards the campus buildings in the direction of Apollo’s. As the young man walked, he pulled out his mechanical pencil and clicked it out into his training bo staff, twirling it in front and behind him as he walked. Had Brynn been up and about at the break of dawn, Greyson could have easily gone for an early morning training sesh. It’d been a bit too long since he’d had a sparring session with his good friend, Bronwyn. She’d been busy doing her own thing, training with others who were better skilled than him. It was completely fine, he just missed the old days when it was just their thing. With everything packed away as it should be, Haley shut and locked the door to her apartment after her. Whoever was her new roommate better had hoped that they had a key. Giving Dusk a pat on the head before she responded to Greyson, she quickly looked around for Nala. [color=00eddd]”Truth to be told, Nala’s probably roaming around campus somewhere. I let her out earlier this morning. Considering she always follows her nose, I’m sure we’ll see her on the way to Apollos.”[/color] Once they were down the stairs and out of the door to the apartment building, Haley was surprised at how warm the sun felt on her skin. Truth to be told, she hadn’t really been outside of the apartment for a few days unless it was for class, and even then she had worn her hoodie like usual. It wasn’t that she was scared to be outside, or that she didn’t like it outside. She just had a few things that added to her comfort or comfort zone and she liked to keep them close. If that meant getting questionable looks as she wore her favorite hoodie in eighty degree weather, so be it. [color=00eddd]”So what’s y’alls plans for the rest of the day?”[/color] [color=darkgreen]”My first class for today is power use and control. Not too fond of going there after how it ended last year. ”[/color] Anastasia had pushed David to make a hole as large as he could. But then it swallowed one of Aphrodite’s kids. She spend a full day in the underworld before they could get her back. [color=darkgreen][i]She probably still hates me.[/i][/color] [color=darkgreen]”After break it’s MC, with Socrates. Always nice.”[/color] Dawn had started chasing his tail, when they were halfway the grass field. When David opened the door to Apollo’s, the aroma of fresh coffee caressed his nostrils. Which already helped his morning mood. [color=darkgreen]”And what about you?”[/color] He asked his companions. Once inside, he realized that despite the early morning, the demi-gods would display extravagant behavior. [color=darkgreen][s]Gods, Beau, put your shirt back on.[/s][/color] As they approached the cafe, Greyson retracted his staff and slid the pen through the top of his button-up shirt, smoothing it out before stepping forward to hold the door open for Haley. His eyes were fixated inside, keeping an eye out for Vivian and his set of keys. Within seconds, he spotted her sitting by the window accompanied by Luci. He looked to David and Haley with an apologetic smile, [color=#3EA99F][b]“Sorry guys, I ‘ave’ta go see Viv. Catch up lat’uh.”[/b][/color] he began to walk towards Vivian between the scattered groups of people standing around but before he could go very far, he spotted Chris and Brynn with what looked like latte spilled all down the front of them. He looked to Viv, then to the girls and sighed softly as he grabbed a few extra handfuls of napkins from a table, walking over to help his friends. [color=#3EA99F][b]"I cah'nt take you girls anywhere, can I?"[/b][/color] The young man smirked at his two friends, handing them each a set of new napkins and threw some down onto the floor spill for added measure.
