Tari walked to the fountain in the courtyard, she started playing with the water, making it into shapes and circle around her. She really needed to work on her powers before she signed up for another fight. She noticed Melrose and stopped manipulating the water, she waved to the girl.

Melrose could hear foot steps on the courtyard pavement. Curiously, she turned her head toward the sound, giving a huge yawn as she did.
It was Tari.
Melrose could see waving now. She sat up from her bench sunbathing to wave back sweetly.
"Hey, Tari! Whatcha doing in the courtyard all by yourself?" It was a bit hypocritical of Melrose to ask, seeing as she was hanging by herself as well.

"Playing with the water", she replied laughing,"What about you?", she asked looking behind Melrose to see if there was anyone with her.

Melrose shrugged, rubbing the back of her neck. Looks like she had gotten a bit of a neck kink from laying down on a hard bench for so long. "Nothing too exciting. Today's been pretty slow. I can't seem to find anybody to hang out with." she replied, laying back down on the bench. The sun was finally setting so she didn't have to squint anymore. Pleasant. She continued, "Lyra seems to be a very busy gal. We're like never in the same room at the same time. I haven't seen Siburis anywhere either. He's a quiet one. I think sometimes he finds company to be annoying." She turned to face Tari, "But I finally found you! So, the day has certainly taken a turn for the better." Melrose added sweetly.

She smiled back at Melrose, laughing lightly,"Tari to the rescue? I could show you around Oceanside or something. I was also dying of boredom before running into you", she nodded at her comment about Lyra,"She's really active, as for Siburis, it seems he just prefers certain people's company", she said, recalling walking in on him and Penny.

Her facing lighting up, Melrose sat up again from the bench. "A tour? Oh! Sure, If you like. I've kind of been slacking on my to-do-list before summer ends. One of my biggest goals being to completely familiarize myself with the campus. All attempts at doing so have failed." She stood up this time, bending down to touch her feet. She was incredibly sore and tense from laying in such an odd position.
"And yeah, I was wondering if there like was some sort of written exam I have to take to become friends with Siburis. Who does he usually hang out with?" She asked curiously. Melrose couldn't exactly explain why but she really wanted to know more about this mysterious dude. He was so suave it was almost unnatural. It kind of bugged the crud out of her.

"I'm cool with being a tour guide, I spent most of my free time freshman year exploring so I'm pretty good with the campus", she said with a grin, remembering sneaking out to find new places on campus.
"Well, I don't know much about him but I walked in on him and my roommate kissing", she replied shrugging. He had seem cool at first but after walking in on that, she had no intentions on being friends with him. Well, unless it'd bug Penelope, she thought to herself.

Melrose's eyes widened on Tari's words. "Well now that's kind of gross."
She gave her knuckles a good crack, it was terrible habit of hers. Suddenly, with this new piece of info, Siburis didn't seem so seamless anymore. It brought some peace to her mind. Oddly.
"They should of known better. Isn't there an open door policy in the dorms or some sort? Who's your roommate? If you don't mind me being nosy." Melrose gave a weak laugh. She was indeed being quite nosy. But she wanted to know, and Tari didn't seem to care too much telling her.

"You can imagine how fun that was for me", she replied laughing,"It isn't really enforced until school starts, and to be honest it's not like they were doing anything R rated. My roommate is Penelope Greene", she said, sighing. It seemed she was going to be stuck with that bitch all year,"I don't mind the nosiness, not my love life. Just don't go telling people, I'd rather not have Greene get pissed over something like this."

Melrose shook her head back and forth furiously. "Oh Geez. No, I'd never tell anyone. I like to know stuff not tell stuff." She laughed, kicked a pebble off the pavement and into the nearby planter. "Penelope Greene, huh? Geez. I didn't see that coming. Though I hardly know her, let alone Siburis." She shook her head, trying to skip off the topic. "Anyways. Sorry for getting off topic. Have any place in mind you want to go to tonight?"
Penelope and Siburis?! Geez, indeed. Melrose was taken back. It's not like it bothered her in the sense that she had a crush on him. No,no, definitely not like that. It was just one of those weird stories you hear about that kind of screw around in your head for the rest of the day, ya know? Maybe that didn't make too much sense. No, it probably didn't.
Melrose had an awful portrait of the two engraved in her head and what it'd be like if she was the one who walked in on them.
Oh, ew. Enough of that.

"Okay cool", she laughed at the slightly grossed out expression on Mel's face,"Hm, well, have you been to the tower yet? Or to any of the training facilities?", she suggested trying to think of school places in the school,"Have you gone to the pool yet?"

Melrose laughed, rubbing the back of her neck. "I haven't gone to any of those places actually. I've been to the Sparring room once. That was it though." She recalled seeing Art and Siburis post battle. Siburis, being all swanky and what not, slithered his way out of the room while Art was writhing in pain. Oh and Jamie was being pretty tough on her, yeah, that too. Tobias was helping her up. Geez, he seems like a really nice guy. And heck, Tari was there too!
Melrose quit it with the flashbacks. Then it dawned on her. The simulation room! She had seen signage of it not too long ago. It had just opened, if she was correct. Sounded like fun.
"Have you been to the Simulation Room, yet? That sounds pretty legit." She offered, wondering what exactly a simulation room did.

"Oh, when'd you go to the sparring room?", she asked,"Yeah, actually I have. It's really legit, and super intense. We could check it out if you want. What's your power again?"

"During Art and Siburis' world war." Melrose joked, adjusted her pink striped shirt. "The aftermath was rather atrocious. It looked like a battlefield. Art was wrecked." The memory was vivid like yesterday to Melrose. It worried her about what Siburis and Jamie's real, actual fight in the arena will look like. I mean, Art and Siburis were only practicing. Geez.
"Oh and I'm super speedy." She added pointing down at her feet. "But also up here too, " Melrose tapped her noggin, "Though I'm not sure doing math homework in 0.5 seconds will come in much handy."

"I did not hear about that, surprisingly", she said to Melrose, trying to remember if she had heard about an epic sparring fight. Her brain just wasn't functioning today.
"That will come in handy, when I force you to tutor me or something. Math is not my forte", she laughed, she excelled in every subject but math. It was quite frustrating.
