[Zak has been standing at the Garden entrance for a little bit. It was one thing to be told that yes, his transfer request had gone through. It was another thing entirely to be standing at the doors of Balamb, acceptance letter in hand ( Read more... )

[Can't help stopping to look at him. Hmm, he reminds her a little of Troy...] Hey! Just arrived, right?

Yeah, I just got here. Came from Galbadia Garden. [Which is probably as unsettling to someone else as it is to him, but Zak is paying no attention to this right now. He shakes his head.]

I transferred, I mean.

Huh. Well, it's good to have you here anyways. [beams, gesturing towards the rest of the campus] Want me to show you around? I know how it can be on the first day.

I did come from a Garden...[But he lets that trail off, because really, what could it hurt? Zak shrugs, finally.]

Sure, why not? Zakari Aetherun. [That's by way of introduction, and he nods.]

Oh, right. They look the same, I guess. [She starts walking, though it's slower than usual] You still want it? Or should I just let you head off...?

I'm Gabriella Montez, by the way. [beams] It's good to meet you.

Let me throw my things in my room. They might have the classrooms set up here differently, after all. I have time.

[Besides, having a pretty girl show him around? Can't hurt.]

Sure! I can go with you there. [She doesn't have anything better to do either, though she hopes it's not so obvious.] Plus, we've got different clubs and stuff that I can talk about. ... If you're into that, I mean.

Sure. I didn't get into much other than trouble back at Galbadia, but... [Zak shrugs. Walking and talking come easy, at least.]

I actually want it to be different here, so that's probably no surprise, I guess. Well. I hope it's not.

I believe in you. [She'd be the last person to question re-invention, after going to a new school every year.] I don't think your old reputation'll follow you here as long as you don't talk about it much.

That's how I escaped it at my old school.

Yeah? Well, it's an idea I guess. Why did you escape it? Go to a military school you hated?

[Sort of teasing...sort of.]

My mom used to move all the time for her job, and I went along with her. [she shrugs, clearly used to it by now] So I'd have to start all over every year.

Oh. That sucks. Sorry. [Because he remembers moving out of Dollet just fine, and having to do that every year? Bad. About the worst thing he can think of, outside of losing his parents, but it can't happen twice.]

So do you know your specialization? I'm still thinking about mine. I've thought about double majoring.

Don't worry about it! I stayed in one place to finish my last two years of high school, so it was good. [Her awesome boyfriend, admittedly, helped a lot with that.] Prior to coming here, I was going to start college, but... I came here instead.

But you should double-major if you can. That's definitely what I'm doing: Battlefield Medicine and Intelligence.

I'm thinking a weapons class...just not sure what else, though. [Because so far all he's really been good at is fighting and getting in trouble, but he doesn't want to do that here...]

[And here is where Mr. Usually Antisocial peters out of words, so he just twists his sponsor ring, nervously. But at least he has a slight smile on his face.]

[Aww. Gabs can't help grinning back at him.] If I'm remembering this right, you can double-major in different kinds of fighting. Might be good if you want to be in the field.

I'm personally not much of a fighter, so I'd like to stay on the sidelines.

Reply

one_part_saint June 21 2011, 20:15:21 UTC
Yeah, but I'm good with my hands, too, so just fighting might be a waste. I dunno. I'm gonna see what this semester brings, I guess, and then make up my mind. I've got a couple years anyway before there's a deadline to take the exam anyway, right?

{Zak shrugs.] I think I have time enough. I hope.
