With finals week around for me, things might get a bit slower. After it's all done though, it's GAME TIME.

Athalia Academy

Certainly, when Valentine flipped her tiny envelope over to discover her room number was different from that of her sisters, she practically ran back to the main office to ask for a new room. Civility kept her from doing so in the end, and she accepted her fate. At the very least, she could hope for a friendly roommate who wasn't overbearing or loud. Or even better, one who simply left her alone. The beds were separated by walls anyways, right?

Avelynn, on the other hand, was disappointed for an entirely different reason; the office assistant had explained to her that she didn't have a roommate... yet. She didn't throw away the idea that she'd be alone for the entirety of the year, but it seemed a little less prospective considering she herself was already a day late. Unlike Valentine, Avelynn actually wished for a roommate whom she could make friends with. To her, it was the fastest and easiest way to make connections at the beginning of the year. She visibly frowned upon the news, but quickly returned to a more cheerful disposition. No need to be disgruntled from the get-go.

Mary was about as passive as one could be upon getting their key. She read the number silently and with a blank face before turning back to the bags and hoisting them up.

"I'll bring the bag to your room, Val," she declared. The two younger sisters made off for their rooms in succession, where Avelynn was left to unpack into an empty new home. At least she didn't have to room with Mary. Her musical habits would have left her truly mad by the year's end.

"You packed snacks into your duffel bag?" Mary asked, more disappointed than surprised. Valentine had managed to set her bag upon her bed with a heavy bounce, and begun to unpack even before Mary could leave. The first things she noticed, however, were the various junk foods that filled her bag. "You packed snacks for a place that was going to serve you meals 24/7? You think this is a camping trip?"

"No! I just... wanted food from home is all," Valentine objected.

"But you could buy this at any common grocer. What the hell Val?" Mary shook her head and glared, choosing to leave Valentine to her poor choices than stand around and gawk at them. Mary retrieved her bag again and made for the door after saying farewell to her sister. Mary proceeded to her own room, and finding it empty, unpacked to her hearts content fueled by a small boombox she had brought with her.

Fixed it then.

Is that... Scorpion? >_>

Athalia Academy

Student center realistically deals with everything having to do with student management for certain universities. Room assignments included. A student center can include multiple facilities and offices, not to mention.

Posted. Just waiting on room assignments for the Ciercelts.

Athalia Academy

Ciercelt Trio
Just outside campus grounds

"Having trouble there?" Avelynn called out, pausing in her walk to look over her younger sister's... troubles. It looked as if someone were trying to drag a large crocodile around with nothing but a shoelace. Valentine struggled, first, to lift her duffel bag up onto her shoulders, her legs easily crumbling under its weight before managing to take two steps. She resorted to dragging as best she could, practically bending sideways a full ninety-degrees to get it off of the cement. Instead of admitting to her shortcomings, she simply continued to fruitlessly prove Avelynn wrong. She went nowhere without straining every muscle in her back.

With a huff, Mary trudged over to Valentine's side and relieved her of duty, snatching up the duffel bag without issue, slinging onto her free shoulder. Seemingly unperturbed by the weight, Mary Ciercelt toted two fully-loaded bags on her back, beckoning for her meeker sister to simply give in and allow her to take the burden. Valentine looked a tad bit defeated, as well as disgruntled, but eventually she figured it was better to feel weak than waste her sisters time simply trying to pass a pair of gates.

The Ciercelt Trio had only just arrived at Athalia Academy, presumably a day late. Having just been dropped off by a formidably painted black SUV, they found themselves with only themselves, their belongings, and the scene before them; that of the academy itself. Avelynn led the charge, a perk in her step and wide smile on her face. Valentine followed close behind Mary, seemingly in a perpetual state of readiness in case the much tougher sister ended up needing a rest. The sternness of her face indicated such wouldn't happen soon, if ever.

"I hope I get a room with one of you," Valentine said quietly.

"No, what you need is a reality shock. You need a roommate who you don't know," Mary chimed in. Valentine fell quiet, unsure of how to respond.She knew there was truth in what Mary said, but she wasn't willing to accept it, nor did she find a reasonable argument against it.

"Just go with whatever comes. Whoever you get, just do your best to be friendly and responsive. You'll be fine Val," Avelynn said, "Where do we even get our room assignments anyways?" None of them had received their room numbers, but she figured it was due to their late enrollment that they hadn't gotten any notifications of the sort.

"Main office?" Mary postulated. Avelynn agreed with silence, approaching the front entrance to the main academy building, assuming it was the most likely to house said 'main office'. "If not there, then I'll be irked."

Valentine gave a look of concern, reaching out to her bag upon Mary's shoulders as if itching to take it from her. Mary noticed and readjusted her stance, gripping the loops tightly and yanking them into a better position. "Seriously, don't worry about it, Val." She could tell Valentine felt useless, and her own annoyed expression must have stressed to the sister that she was growing tired of carrying two bags.

Truly, she was feeling slightly tired, but she wasn't about to complain or give in. If she gave in they'd be waiting even longer for Valentine to exhaust herself. The only reason she even had the bag was thanks to the grace of countless house servants doing her dirty work. Upon exiting the car, Valentine refused further service from them. The trio proceeded through the glass doors at the height of the steps, finding themselves within a large atrium. Several students had made themselves apparent, along with a few signs pointing them in the right direction.

Main Office

A placard extending from the upper corner of a hallway indicated to the trio the right path. Finding their way to the main office by way of several signs, weaving through hallways and safety doors, the trio stopped before a curved service desk. Avelynn set her duffel bag down slowly, whereas Mary simply dropped them haphazardly, rolling her shoulders, as Valentine attended to her exhaustion as best she could.

"Hi there, you wouldn't happen to know where we get our room assignments, do you? We just got here," Avelynn explained to the attendant behind the desk. With a nod, they cemented Avelynn's hopes that they were in the right place.

"Of course. Let me bring up the assignments, just a sec'," the attendant explained, turning to a computer before clicking a few times, "Names?"

Avelynn gestured to herself, and then to her two sisters, "Avelynn, Valentine, Mary. Last names Ciercelt," she introduced. The attendant nodded and continued with the process before turning away and walking into an unseen room beyond. Returning with three tiny envelopes with numbers printed on them in black sharpie, the sisters were each handed their enclosed keys.

And their assignments were...

Wait so you want me to continue without Rose's approval? .-.
