[Aurora - or rather, Rose again now, strolls through the Disney Academy quad at a leisurely pace, pulling her trunk filled with clothing behind her with a small, delicate hand. Does she know where she's going? Not really, but based on what she's seen of the map that she received at the Transit Center, she has an idea of where the dorms are. Rose is

[Bad news - it's Frollo. And he doesn't look about to issue a cheery welcome to the Academy. In fact, he walks right past Aurora with nothing more than a nod, absorbed in his afternoon stroll.]

Of ALL of the academy members to see first.. XP

[kissoftruelove]

[Aurora stops exactly where she is and turns around as he walks past her. She had wanted to meet new people, but this wasn't at all what she had expected. This person looks intimidating, to say the least. After no more than a few moments of staring after the dark figure, brows knit together in nervous thought, Aurora takes a deep, reassuring breath. She continues aimlessly on her way, trembling only slightly, and definitely more aware of her surroundings.]

[Ting-Ting is studying outside again - after all, with the size of the English textbook, it can only help to read ahead - when she notices the other girl coming through, someone she's never seen before. Granted, she doesn't know many people yet anyway, but the luggage is a fair bet that this girl is new. So why not set a good example? Tucking her book under one arm, she pulls out her fan with the other and stands.]

Hello there. Are you new here?

[kissoftruelove]

[Still a bit shaken from her previous (albeit brief) encounter, Aurora warily approaches Ting-Ting. She notes the other princess' once-over of her luggage, and laughs shyly.]

Why...hello!

I guess you could tell. [She gestures to her trunk.] I've just come from the Transit Center, and I'm looking for Joe..West, I think? [Aurora unfolds the map and points to the building's outline on the paper.] I'm sorry to bother you, but...could you help me find it?

[nosenseof_humor]

Oh, yes, Joe West. I can show you where that is. It's not a bother at all. [Leading the way just slightly, Ting-Ting nods to Aurora.] If you'd like, I can give you a tour of campus once you've found your room and dropped off your trunk.

[kissoftruelove]

Oh, would you? [Her blue eyes light up with hope the suggestion. There ARE nice strangers here!] That would be just wonderful! You don't know how much I appreciate this. Do you live in Joe West? [Aurora at least wants to know something about her companion.]

[is_offlimits]

[Chel's sunbathing outside when she sees a very pretty girl walking by with a trunk. Aha - could this be a newer student than she? Her nose crinkles and grin gets wide. She hops off the bench where she was laying and walks towards her.]

You new here?

[kissoftruelove]

[Aurora, a bit startled, turns her head in the direction of the new voice. She stifles a gasp, as she doesn't know what to make of Chel's attire. This girl appears to be about her age, and if Aunt Flora had ever seen Aurora in clothing like that...Aurora chuckles wickedly to herself before Chel comes within earshot.]

Yes, actually, I am. [Chel looks curious, so Aurora continues.] I just came from the....Transit..Center..[yes, she's more than a little confused.] I hope I'm assuming correctly, but are you a student here, too?

[is_offlimits]

[Oh Chel and her outfit - she's been getting a lot of attention lately because of it.]

Oh yes, the Land of the Transit Center. I know it well[she smirks].

Yeah, I'm a 2nd year in college here. The name's Chel.

[kissoftruelove]

[Aurora recognizes Chel's tone of voice and smirks right back. She's been well versed in sarcasm (courtesy of Aunt Flora and Aunt Merryweather) since she was very young. She likes Chel and her amiable nature - so far, anyway - so she's going to remember that name.]

A second year? Oh! That reminds me...[her eyes grow wide, and she snaps her fingers, coming to a sudden realization] I have yet to register for my classes this year! Could you tell me, perhaps, which ones are worth taking? Is there a limit to the number that I can register for? [Aurora is oh-so-excited, and she can't very well hide it from creeping into her voice. She's so anxious to begin learning about the world outside of her fathers' lands.]

[hybridoutcast]

[Balto spots a pretty young woman dragging a suitcase behind her. Being the friendly dog that he is, he trots up alongside her, wagging his tail and staring up at her.]

Hey, you new too?

[kissoftruelove]

[The lovely princess expects to see a person. She, however, is in for a bit of a surprise! Did that animal just...talk? You'll have to excuse Aurora; she's been reared in a land in which animals don't speak.]

H-hello there! [Aurora isn't certain as to whether or not it's the safest thing to attempt to give the dog a friendly pat on the head. She reaches out with a small, dainty hand, but pulls it back with uncertainty.]

You're correct - I've only just arrived here. [The girl doesn't know if he'll speak again. She doesn't feel at all embarrassed at talking to an animal, regardless, as it was a regular occurrence when she lived in the forest.]

[hybridoutcast]

[Balto put his ears back a little.]

I won't bite...I'm new here too. A student.
