Elizabeth walked down the hall, trying to decide what subject of homework to start on when she spotted Jack leaning against a wall, a look on his face nearly universal for troublemakers, she remembered her brother and several other boys in her old neighborhood wearing it before trouble had happened. She stopped in front of him and leaned against the wall next to him, looking at him for a long moment before she spoke.
"Hmm?" Jack looked over at her with a sly grin, "Whatever do you mean Elizabeth? I'm not up to anything." Even while he speaks he listens for the familiar squeaking of the Janitor's cart as he leans crossing his arms cooly against the wall.
"I told you, it's Elizaveta, or Lizzi, since you'll end up shortening it anyway. And you know exactly what I mean Jack Wilson, you're up to something, I can see it in your face."
She pauses then, chewing on her lip for a moment before reaching a decision.
"Not illegal is it? Cause I wasn't really doing anything after class....."
His grin widens as he leans down to whisper, "You want in? Nothin illegal...just a little fun with our local Janitor, Lizzi. You're right, I was planning on shortening it."
He sits back up quickly glancing around for the cart...but the janitor has yet to appear up anywhere. "I thought I'd just take a few things from the cart, if you follow me."
Feliciano was heading back to his dorm to drop his things off before running off to play elsewhere when he spotted Jack standing in the hallway. He bounded over to bother him.
"No no not at all. And if we get caught I'll take the blame. No worries mate." Jack smiles reassuringly as he looks around for the Janitor...where the hell was he!
Gupta wasn't among those setting about to begin his homework, in fact he was spreading his prayer rug out onto the hallway floor to begin his prayers in the direction of mecca.
Gupta rose from his prayer, to acknowledge the man - who appeared to have been watching him. He nods his head in greeting, looking as disinterested and expressionless as ever.
"You don talk much do ya? That's s'oright mate." He smiles, slightly put off by how quiet this guy is since he's so use to being around Arthur and Feliciano.
Noticed the blond boy, Duyên approached him and asked a casual question, because he looked suspicious and was up to something... He was always up to something, that was why he hadn't got accepted to the group yet.
In contrast to his usual behavior Jack instantly put on the most innocent face he could muster, "N-Nothing. I wasn't doing anything Duyên. Just...uh waiting for my roomie to get his stuff together...heh heh."
He smiled as unsupiciously as he could which really didn't help cover his sudden swing in mood. He couldn't let their group know that he did stuff like this! He'd never get in!

Duyên replies calmly, although she still spot that mischievous sight in Jack's eyes while answering.
