As always, Risa was making sure she looked perfect. She couldn't meet the newest boy on campus without making sure she looked amazing. Dressed in a light pink dress complete with lace cap sleeves and a petticoated skirt. Around her waist was a satin lavender ribbon. She secured part of her hair back with a fake orchid clip.

Then she moved and picked up Runt, the brown-spotted white rabbit that resided in her dorm room with Snow, her sister's cat. "Runt, we're about to go meet someone new so be on your best behavior, ok?" Smiling, she adjusted the blue ribbon around the rabbit's neck, fixed one pushed back floppy ear, and placed him in the oversized bag she used to carry around.

Clicking in her heels on her way down the hall to the lobby, Risa was a bit shocked to see Ramza there. She figured she'd meet him at his dorm, but...well..it didn't matter because just the sight of him was taking her breath away. Damn her and her affinity for pretty boys. "Hello! I'm Risa. You must be Ramza..."

Ramza turned and bowed to the lady in her pretty pink dress. "I am. It is a pleasure to meet you." As he stood back up, his cape fluttered slightly. He had not worn it in over a year, and he had forgotten how cumbersome it could be.

He smiled at her and flicked it back as he offered her an arm, striving to be the model escort just as he had been taught growing up. This lady was certainly not a warrior-woman like his comrades-in-battle. A pretty girl clad in lace and ribbons required a chivalrous protector. She would have naught to fear from those 'Atem' and 'Frau' characters on this day.

"If you are ready, Lady Risa, I shall follow wherever you lead," he said to his guide.

Was he for real? Risa had never been around someone this...noble before. Not to say that Dark wasn't noble, but this was a very different kind...and Risa ate it up. She slipped her arm through his, her glossed lips pulling into a smile.

"I've never seen anyone where a cape before. It's nice!" She started to lead him toward the door but stopped after just a few steps. "Oh, before we go, you have to meet Runt!" Turning a bit to show him the rabbit sticking his head up out of the bag, Risa giggled when Runt leaned forward and sniffed at Ramza's fingertips. "I think he likes you!"

Soon after the rabbit was finished sniffing around, Risa started walking again. "Well...this is House Rho and it's where all the girls live. We have a place for married couples to live too, but it's not in this dorm and I don't think anyone is there anymore. I'll show you the beach first! Does that sound ok?"

Ramza eyed the strange rodent that popped out of Risa's bag. Most of the wildlife in his world had been driven feral due to famine and war damages, making him a little wary of new creatures. This one seemed harmless, though, and quite domesticated, so he allowed it to examine his fingers. "Your pet is very...unique," he complimented Risa. To him, rabbits were an unknown species.

"A beach sounds like a fine start to our journey," he agreed. Even if there were no ships to carry him homeward. At least he had made an ally in this new world. "Does it lie far from here?"
