There were many days when Reki hated his job. Right now, it was record keeping. For one thing, they were never current for long. The student and staff body constantly changed ( ... )

Jack nearly dropped the handheld at the sound of his door being knocked on. He hadn't expected anyone to bother looking for him (except maybe Mod, but like he would bother knocking), so he was surprised.

For a second, he thought about pretending that the room was empty, but something compelled him to set the game down and get up, shuffling across the floor. It didn't even occur to him that his t-shirt and boxers were probably not the best attire for him to answer the door in.

"Yeah, wha'd'ya want?" he demanded, yanking the door open, but then he saw the bag on the ground and his mentor almost to the corner.

"...what's... pudding?"

Jack's voice caused Reki to stop in his tracks and look over his shoulder to the... under dressed student. "Yes, it's pudding. Eat it or put it in a mini-fridge before it gets too warm." It wouldn't be good for the pudding to go bad.

Jack liberated the pack from the bag and eyed it cautiously. "What's this for?" he asked suspiciously. "Last time I checked, it wasn't your job to give me random junk food..."

Hi ho, Neighbor! XD soveryverylost March 5 2011, 02:15:41 UTC
[OOC: The new guy next door probably falls under option B).]

Ryoga had fallen asleep after finally finding his dorm room. The jet lag caused him to sleep a lot later than he intended, and now everybody had gone to classes. By the time he found his way to the classrooms, he'd probably be too late anyway, so he had resigned himself to just sitting in his room, doing nothing.

Then he was sure he heard a sound from next door. Anything was better than staring at the ceiling above his bed, so he decided to see if someone else was still in the dormitory.

He intended to tap lightly on the entry of B07, but the door wound up rattling on its hinges. The noise contrasted sharply with his quiet question, "Hello? Is anybody home?"

Aww, I was hoping SOMEONE would do the hustle... XP jackbotsattack March 5 2011, 02:36:47 UTC
Jack raised an eyebrow at the door. He didn't recognize the voice, which meant he didn't care who it was.

He didn't even put down his video game, instead yelling, "No. Go away!"

There, now maybe his mysterious visitor would get the hint and leave him be.

Maybe Ryoga's hustling in the hall right now... Jack may never know. ;P soveryverylost March 5 2011, 03:06:57 UTC
"Sorry," Ryoga mumbled. "Nice to meet you, too." He hoped that sarcastic lat bit was quiet enough that the other guy hadn't really heard it.

He supposed he shouldn't take it personally; maybe they weren't in class because they were ill or something. Still, he was rather passive-aggressively pleased that one of the door numbers had been knocked askew during the knocking.

Guess it was back to staring at the ceiling...

\o/ Also time skip~~~ jackbotsattack March 5 2011, 03:41:24 UTC
Satisfied that he had been left alone, Jack went back to his video game. He played it for a few hours, then got tired of getting beaten and decided to do something else.

Like listen to really loud and obnoxious heavy metal music.

So loud it could probably be heard down the hall, and definitely in the next room.
