What…?
Katie was almost brought to tears as the first roommate pairing was announced and then immediately tossed into their room, quite literally. The sight of such a large oaf of a woman just casually tossing around little girls? Fucking hilarious. And humiliating, which made it even better.
But the girl’s good humor quickly came to a grinding halt when the second pairing was called and also tossed aside. Not that it wasn’t funny - it was - but because she was seeing a pattern. A bad pattern. A -
Her name was called. She hesistated for a moment, then stepped forward. For a brief moment, she thought she was going to get by without taking a flight on She-Hulk Airlines. No dice. All of a sudden, Katie felt herself gaining momentum. Right into the room. Almost face first into the floor, but Katie managed to get her feet under her and regained her balance after stumbling deep into the room.
The girl turned back around to the door, feeling a warm sensation in her face. Embarrassment? Anger? She couldn’t say for sure. But what she COULD say for sure was that a somewhat larger woman was tossed into the room with her. The tall girl had already changed her mind. Being tossed around? Not funny, definitely humiliating, and only done by complete and total asshats. Katie was about to give the human catapult the only finger that mattered when her roommate got up and...and…
Slapped the woman.
Katie was stunned. That uh...that just happened. Her roommate just slapped a member of the faculty and then told her how things were going to be. Like a badass.
Ten points to chubby roomie.
When the girl came back in, she cast Katie a look of...well, just next level boredom. Or annoyance. Her Resting Bitch Face game was next level. Then she spoke as if she hadn’t just committed assault.
Katie blinked, still slightly stunned. But the moment quickly passed and Katie met this Tsubaki Yozora with a roar of laughter. The fit really hit Katie hard, belting out an actual deep belly laugh. She managed to regain her composure long enough to shrug and toss her bags, a duffle bag, backpack, and guitar case onto the bed NOT by the window. She then spoke through her laughter in her best (but still pretty bad) Japanese,
“Hahaha sorry. It’s all yours.”With that, Katie crossed over to her bed and started to unpack but stopped after unzipping her duffle bag. Introductions. Shit. She spoke up without turning around, splitting her attention between this little bonding ceremony and her unpacking.
“Oh yeah. Uh...nice to meet you too? The name’s Katie. I guess I’m a second year? Hell if I know, really. I’m pretty new to this whole Japan thing...”…
Katie let the silence hang for a moment as she listened to the music coming out of Tsubaki’s headset. It had a nice beat to it. And the riff wasn’t half bad either. The girl had decent taste in music then. That was a plus. She started to ask the girl about it when another person entered the room. It was the Bosslady. She crossed over to Tsubaki and...plucked her nose. Then gave what Katie could only take as an apology? This place was fucking weird.
At the mention of breakfast, Katie’s stomach moaned longingly. She would either have to rush her unpacking, or take a break to get some grub.
Her stomach groaned again.
It didn’t seem like she had a say in the matter.
Katie turned back to Tsubaki, scratching the back of her own neck and she glanced out the window.
“So uh...where exactly do we get breakfast?”

EXCITEMENT!
WOOHOO!
The curtain began to rise on yet another year at the lovely Nakkashiro! Junko was practically beaming, her grin stretching from ear to ear.
It was actually rather disturbing She happily bounced from group to group, greeting old friends and new ones alike. The first day of school was Junko’s favorite. It was all so new and fresh! ...well okay, it wasn’t her favorite day exactly. Every day was! One never knows what lies beyond the horizon! A new day brings endless opportunities. So on and so forth.
Needless to say, the girl was practically bouncing off the walls. It took all she had to sit still through the principal's speech, but she somehow did it. Mainly because what came next would be her favorite part of the day, or at least until her next favorite thing happened.
She would get her room assignment. But more than that, she would be getting her ROOMMATE assignment. Or as she would call them, her BEST FRIEND FOREVER.
As the security team lead the girls to down the hall of the dorms, she called names. Some she recognized, some she didn’t. But she’d know them all for sure by the end of the year. Definitely!
She heard some sort of scuffle coming from the front of the line, but Junko couldn’t see past all of the tall people. Some might have resented them. Envious of all that delicious height, who knows what a girl might do to even the odds? Not Junko! She was perfectly happy with how tall she was. She was fun-sized! ...whatever that meant!
Soon though, Junko realized what was happening. As the line thinned out, Junko saw that the girls were being literally tossed into their rooms by the large security guard. It looked so...so…
OMAHGOSH IT LOOKED SO FUN!
Junko wanted to be tossed! It would be like flying and diving put together. Flyving! Dilying!
Eventually her name was called, and Junko eager stepped up for her turn to soar through the air. She was not disappointed. She hit the ground and finished with a roll back onto her feet. The girl was giggling the entire time. Her bags ended up being tossed to the floor but Junko paid them no mind. She was much more interested in the other living creature in the room.
She turned to the girl, Marie if she had heard correctly, and flashed her that beaming smile. Junko could barely contain her excitement to meet the girl. She...well, she looked AWESOME! So very stylish! Junko would need to take notes.
"Bonjour, Mademoiselle. Endroit rugueux, est-ce pas? Je suis Marie. Comment t `appelles tu?"So uh...Junko didn’t know French. At all. Sure, she knew what certain words or phrases meant, like ‘bonjour’ or ‘je suis’, but that was all pretty much gathered from pop culture. Definitely not enough to hold any sort of conversation in it. But the girl didn’t let that stop her! FRIENDSHIP KNOWS NO LANGUAGE BARRIER! From Junko’s best guess, the girl had just introduced herself. And so, Junko introduced herself as well. In Japanese. Completely glossing over the fact that maybe, JUST MAYBE, the French looking girl who had just spoken in FRENCH, might not understand Japanese.
Junko wasn’t exactly the brightest bulb in the box.
“[Hello! It’s so nice to meet you, Marie! It is Marie, right? That’s a beautiful name! My name is Watanabe Junko! But just call me Junko! I just know that we’ll be good friends! I mean, I don’t recognize you, so you must be new here. There are so many new people this year. It just gets me so fired up! So where are you from? I bet it’s lovely there! I want to see the world someday. There are too many places to see, too many people to meet to just stay cooped in one place, y’know? But a lot of those people come here! You never know who you might meet walking in the hall. Isn’t it just so EXCITING?!]” the girl spoke quickly and excitedly, smiling the entire time.
Yep. It was going to be another GREAT year!
