Morella stood up, hands in her hoodie pockets. She shrugged, replying to Tarkus, "Might as well," and taking the initiative to lead the pair through the dwindling crowds to leave the ship. "You know," she said, as they stepped outside, "Might could see about scanning it into my holo-workbench. Dunno if it's resistant to things like that, but if you weren't given schematics for it...well, it might not help as much, but I wouldn't know what to do other than experiment," she said, glancing up. She spottet a student leaping off the lamp post and cartwheeling down the avenue, taking opportunities to bound off of benches, kiosks, over people's shoulders, etc. Morella shook her head, with an exasperated sigh, saying to herself, "That guy's in his own movie or something."

Oliver affected marching band music from his mouth, while he sang, "Da da dadalalada Beacon, da da dadalalada campus, Beacon campus, Beacon campus, polka-dot polka-dot polka-dot student!" One each syllable of polka-dot, he planted colorful stickers on nearby, unsuspecting, and easily annoyed student's faces. As his singing was then interrupted with him dodging wayward punches, Oliver decided to reign in his celebratory activities and head towards the center of the campus, just a tad.
The main thoroughfare to the Auditorium was slightly obscured, though not much, by a group of students following a girl with a holo-display of the campus. Oliver figured the building at the center was where they were to go, so he didn't need to follow them, but things seemed far to droll and in control over there. With a smirk, as he readied his polka-dot stickers, he jogged up to the group. "S'cuse me, coming through, urgent business." Ollie said, as some students in the back just looked behind to him. It was too quick for anyone to move, but Ollie slid in between people in the moving crowd. He didn't run into anyone, he didn't step on any toes, he didn't even jostle any bags, he just moved like water through the group. To anyone who paid attention, it might have been impressive, though Ollie just found it fun. He neared the front, spinning past the girl with the holo-pad without so much as jostling the ruffles on her skirt. He turned, with a wry smile, saying, "Pardon me, gang, sorry for the bother," while turning to sprint down the avenue. He looked down, the sheet of polka-dot stickers was completely empty, as random colored dots would be found on shoulders, bags, hats, etc. of several people in the group.
Near the border of the Auditorium were large pillars, with signs and flags hanging from the top. Several Upperclassmen pitched in to make the new students welcome. Perhaps the Siege last year had brought them closer together, perhaps they wanted to make a good first impression; Either way, the reception for the new students coming in was very warm and colorful. A few Upperclassmen were waiting at the end of the avenue to welcome new students personally. Which Oliver appreciated, though didn't partake in quite yet. What he was interested in was the view, from the top of the pillars bordering the edge of the Auditorium's sidewalk. He stopped his run at the base of one of the pillars, looking up and brushing his hand along the stone. "...Oh yeah...I could climb that..." he said to himself, grinning as he clambered up and started scaling the 6 story structure.
