... "Shizu"... The details on roommates seem to be rather sparse.

*And she knocks on the door of her assigned room.*

I'd best hope I can get along with them, whoever they are...

*Shizu, answer?*

[The door opens... and for the first time in almost two months, Shizu is not crossdressing!]

Ah... hello, miss.

[handsonthepanda]

Oh, hello. *Yay, a girl whose chest size doesn't make Noel go into spastic fits! ... Not that she thinks of it like that...*

You would be Miss Shizu, then? I'm Major Noel Vermillion... Looks like I'm your roommate here.

[inferior_lady]

Oh! [Shizu actually sounds really, really relieved. Now she won't have to worry about rooming with some guy!]

Yes, I am. [She smiles, bowing politely.] I'm Shizu Shido. It's very nice to meet you, Major Vermillion!

[handsonthepanda]

*Noel bows, smiling a bit.*

And the same to you. Nice to see someone decently normal here...

[inferior_lady]

I could say the same thing. Some of the people around here are... very strange. And the demons...

[handsonthepanda]

*Noel glances into the room.*

So... Uh...

*She realizes that the last time she roomed with someone, it was Tamaki, who was perfectly happy organizing things. Also, anything conspicuous in the room right now, Shizu?*

[inferior_lady]

[Nothing at all! Except maybe the lock on her closet. But that's perfectly normal, right?]

Is there something wrong, Major?

[handsonthepanda]

*Noel blinks a few times, shaking her head.*

Uh, no no of course not. I'm just... I haven't had a lot of chance to be... Erm...

... So which bed do I take? *Obviously uncomfortable, naturally.*

[inferior_lady]

[Poor Shizu is so confused. But she tries to shake it off!]

I've been using the one on the right, so the left is yours! I've tried to keep everything as tidy as I could, so I hope the room suits you as best as it can.

[handsonthepanda]

*Noel blinks a few times.*

Well... Sure, that works. The room is certainly very well-kept...

*Noel is a little scared of the closet, now she thinks it...*

[inferior_lady]

I'm glad you think so! I'm not used to this sort of thing, though... the maids and such always took care of the cleaning back home.

[handsonthepanda]

Ah, so you're from a noble family too, then?

... Though my family was adoptive, and weren't very well respected. Plus I had to learn to keep up after myself at the Academy...

[inferior_lady]

Oh, I wouldn't say we're nobles exactly... but we are quite rich.

Your family wasn't respected? Why not?

[handsonthepanda]

... Ah. My family was just on hard times, is all. I went to the Academy hoping to bring respect back to them...

[inferior_lady]

That's very noble of you! I hope you were able to do a little good before you were dragged here.

[handsonthepanda]

... Not especially. This was one of my first missions... Before it wound up with me here.
