[color=ed1c24][i]Mmm[/i][/color], is the thought that runs through Alayna's mind as she continues digging into her mashed potatoes, looking down at her plate as if it is all she has left to eat in the world. She hasn't even dug into the rest of her food, the potatoes being the only thing she's touched. That is probably the reason why there isn't much of it left. And why the smell, oh god the smell, makes her stomach turn and her mouth water. She rubs her belly and tries to push the feeling down. This is the last time she'll ever have something so small for breakfast. 

Alayna looks up from her meal then and at the food table, tempted to run and get some more. Although, by now, there were several more people gathered there. The thought of facing that many faces, possibly being forced to engage in conversation with them, makes her insides twist. Still, the thought of getting more of her mashed delight is too tempting to ignore. Before she can make up her mind about it, however, she feels a presence and a familiar voice speak from beside her.  She turns her head, coming face to face with Rebecca Delacroix. Or, as she likes to call her in her head, [color=ed1c24][i]Ghost Girl[/i][/color], the irony of the name being that she's actually the person that's most alive in the initiate group.  

"[color=ed1c24]Oh, hey Becca,[/color]" the blonde replies with what she hopes is a bright smile, "[color=ed1c24]More or less. Honestly, I think I'm just ready to get this whole thing over with so my 'rents cool off a bit.[/color]" She nods at the girl's plate. 

"[color=ed1c24]Just vegetables? You should give the mashed potatoes a try. It's really good.[/color]"
