Room 600 is a large, three person, corner room that has one window facing the field, and another facing out over a courtyard with the Classes building in the distance.

Carson slammed the door closed behind her with her foot. This was it, her room. Apparently, she had it all to herself for now. That was just fine. She didn't care too much for company. Onto the bed, she dumped two large, black duffel bags. She was finally here at Oceanside. Carson had discovered her powers at thirteen. Her mother wasn't sure what to do with her, and urged her not to use them in public. Her dad, however, had tried to find a place to ship her off to from the start. He thought a teenager running around with fire at her finger tips was a catastrophe waiting to happen. Knowing Carson, he could've been right or wrong. Until they could find a school especially for gifteds, she just had to wait at home. There obviously weren't many of them out there. In those two years, she'd practiced her ability. She had fairly good control over it now, but there was still a great amount of advanced techniques and exercises that would be beneficial to learn. And now she was here. The room was quite plain; bed, desk, side table, in triplicate, complete with lamps. Inhabitable, but not luxurious. Carson flopped back on the bed for a moment before making up her mind to begin decorating her side of the room. Why not? She had enough energy. She chose the side with the window that had a view of the courtyard. Carelessly, she unzipped one of the duffel bags. She pulled out a few rolled up posters, which were slid inside one another with a rubber band around them. She slid the rubber band off and taped them up, haphazardly scattering them across the walls. Band posters, sports stars, graphics, movies she'd loved; there were a variety of them. She also pulled out various knick-knacks. Glassy sea-shells, snow globes, paper weights. She just randomly slapped them all down on either the desk or the side table. And that was it. Carson fell back onto the bed once more. This was going to be a long year. And she highly doubted she'd be noticed by anyone.

Artemis inhaled a bit as she walked down the hall until she finally came to her room. 'First one?' She thought since the door was shut. She didnt think of her room mate shutting the door. Artemis lugged her bags to the door as she waved it open using wind as a crutch, the door freely unlocked and opened for her. "Hmm" She said with a soft smile on her face. Soon she turned the small corner to her room to see another girl there. She chewed on her lip a bit upset she didnt get first pick. It wasnt that big she just hoped this roommate of hers wouldnt be a problem.Her eyes diverted over to the girls side as it was decorated with posters and things. She was planning on doing the same thing it just seemed weird having a roommate. Artemis kept silent as she nodded to her roommate. "Hello"She said tossing her bags with her hand on her bed she claimed. She looked around with a lost gaze as she fumbled with her ring spining it on her finger. Artemis let down her hair as it whisped in her face. She slowly went to sit on her bed. She really didnt know what to say...So decided to stay silent as her bags remained untouched on her bed.

Carson didn't even open her eyes when she heard the voice. She groaned. She could already tell just by hearing this was supposedly her roommate. The opening of the door without knocking, the sound of luggage landing on the bed beside her own. Oh yes, Carson no longer had custody of this room. "I don't even get this to myself for more than fifteen minutes..." Carson muttered. Rubbing her eyes, she sat up and debated whether to lay down any guidelines for her roommate; to dictate whether or not she'd stay out of her hair. Carson decided against it. It was her first day, she wasn't here to cause trouble or make enemies. And if there was one thing Carson wasn't going to do, that was make herself known as the snooty girl. So maybe she'd just leave this girl to set up and go find somewhere else she could be alone and adapt to California. "I'm gonna go get drinks, where's a good joint?" Carson grumbled, uttering the question only slightly audible on her way to the door. She'd heard of coffee shops and such.

Artemis snapped her fingers as she open and close her hand. As soon as she opened her palm a small orb of wind appeared in a circle. She closed it quickly. Artemis sat up and unzipped her bag as she slowly began to unpack. Her blond hair fell in her face as she put away her clothes inside the drawer as she made her way to begin decorating. She placed pictures of England, as well as one single picture of her parents. No pictures of her with friends or anything. She placed posters of bands and small hand made posters with quotes on them. After placing the last tack in her wall she turned to her room mate who was quiet as well. She was glad. 'So there wont be any problems here" She smiled slightly to herself looking over to her. "Im pretty hungry to...but I think there was a coffee shop down stairs. off campus?" She said shrugging.

Carson shrugged as well. "I just got here, all I've heard is people around me talking about it." Carson watched the girl for a moment. She didn't give Carson a bad vibe, whereas most people Carson didn't end up liking gave her one. Yet, there was something about her that made her seem untrustworthy. Although, of course, that's what Carson thought of almost everyone when she first met them, so why bother making a big deal of it? For all she knew, it could just be Carson being Carson again. Realizing she hadn't even introduced herself, Carson did so in the most informal way she could at the moment. "By the way, the name's Carson..." She said, making an attempt at a friendly smile.

Artemis looked up and nodded. "Yeah...I got no clue"She said She pressed her lips to a line as she stood up from her bed and turned around looking at her room. "Its still neh"S he said sort of shrugging it off. She would fix it later. Artemis turned to her roommate and nodded slightly."Artemis" She said sort of coldly. She didnt want any trouble..but she didnt want people on her nevers either. She inhaled a bit as she thought she would be nice. It WAS her roommate after all. "Well I might step out and go to the practice room in a bit"

Artemis got back to the dorms late. She walked through the haa;;s untill she got to her own room. She paced the halls a bit before actually going in. She wasnt tired at all and a bit bored. Finally she opened her door. She left the door open and sat on the egde of her bed sort of thinking to herself.

Artemis raised a brow as she heard an all to familiar voice. She got up and saw Tobias poking his head in her room. "Hey there Mr Tobias"S he smiled letting him in. "I thought you would be tucking in Lyra by now" She joked a bit.

Tobias looked at Artemis questioningly. He shrugged and moved into the room while looking around. "I enjoy spending time with Lyra. She's one of my best friends. Is it okay for me to be here?" he asked Artemis.

Tobias nodded to the girl and gave her a smile. "So is there any place that I'm allowed to sit down?" He raised an eyebrow at her expectantly and waited.
