Thomas continued to eat his meal, but looked up at Steve. He didn't have a face of interest...or disinterest, really. It was a strange look.
Then he went back to his food.

IGNORE ME!

Piotr was a little taken aback by Johann simply introducing himself, he had expected to go a day or two before anyone introduced themselves to him. Piotr sluggishly wiped his hands clean before meeting Johanns outstretched hand with a friendly handshake, "I am Piotr Hendricks." There was an awkward pause after the handshake, Piotr realized that he needed to say something back. "What brings you to Ingenium?"

Aw, an emo-bender.

Will strolled into the cafeteria with the other stragglers who had been near the end of the sign up line. He hadn't signed up for a job yet, and figured that if he ended up wanting to, the teachers wouldn't mind taking on some extra help a little later. As he filled up his plate happily (breakfast was always his favorite meal), he noticed a pretty blonde girl sitting by herself and praying before she ate.
A shame, thought Will, this is far too jovial an event to be all by one's lonesome. When he finally procured a couple strips of bacon to round off his meal, he approached her. "Top o' the mornin' lass," he said with a friendly smile, "I don't suppose you'd mind if I took a seat here, do you?"

Emma placed her plate down on the table and smoothed her skirt before sitting down.
She was seated at a table amongst several of the people she recognized from sign-ups, she noticed. One was trying to coerce a conversation out of the quiet, apathetic boy from before, with little success. Steve, the first boy introduced himself as. Emma thought it somewhat rude of the taller boy to ignore him like that. What was his problem? Well, somebody should answer him, to make up for the silence he got from the nobleman. Emma moved down a few seats, sitting directly across from the pair of them. "Hullo," She said brightly to Steve. "Is this seat taken? Sorry if I'm intruding, but I don't know anyone here yet and I recognized you two from the sign ups. I was just behind you in line. That means you're first-years too, yes?" She held out a hand. "My name's Emma. Emma Fletcher." She smiled and waited for either of them to respond.

Zane's morning had not been quite so easy as most of the other students. He had gotten up in plenty of time but beinging short just wasn't fun sometimes. Several times he had been pushed backwards, and even to the ground, while standing in the crowd of students. It was one of the few things that mad him truely angry but he held his temper for now. After the speech he had been able to sign-up towards the end of the line without much trouble. After that he headed over to the mess hall.
After being pushed around all morning Zane was prime for a little revenge and used his small size and speed to cut in line several times. Despite how late he had been signing up for classes he still managed to get his breakfest fairly soon. Seeing a couple of guys in a conversation at a table he headed for them. As he got closer he noticed one had been literally digging into his eggs. Now that's my kind of guy, thought Zane as he finally reached the table. As he sat down he introduced himself, "The names Zane and if you mention my height right now you'll be taking a nap for a bit. Oh and nice to meet you." |

"Piotr, It is good to meet you" Johann affirmed, though his pronunciation of the name was a little off.
"I am here to learn..." Johann had just started his explanation when another boy interupted. "The names Zane and if you mention my height right now you'll be taking a nap for a bit. Oh and nice to meet you." "Welcome Zane, I am Johann?" Johann outstreached his hand to the newcomer.

Zane flushed a little and took the outstretched hand. "Sorry bout that; I've had a rough morning and I don't take to kindly to cracks about my height. Please continue." After finishing his little speech and releasing the others grip he snuck a quick bite of food. He'd exchange pleasentries with the other guy at the table when Johann finished the sentance Zane had so rudely intrupted.

So we are clear

After signing up Allen went off to the cafeteria. Food there was decent. He grabbed a few assorted meats and fruit. Already he begins eating some of his food as he walks over to the tables. Emma caught his attention. He simply walked over and sat down next to her.

"Bah! Think nothing of it". Johann replied
"And as for your hight, when you are Piotr's and my age you will be tall". "As i was saying i come from a village of fishermen, I figured being able to ensure the winds my people needed to make a safe passage would be a worthy task fo myself". Johann's smile grew even wider at the thought of this accomplishment.

Zane cocked an eyebrow and cast a sidelong glare at Johann, "And just how old do you think I am?" He wasn't so much upset just a little sick of some of the assumptions people tended to make about him. It wasn't their fault he was such a shrimp though. One day he'd show them all.
