Lyra nods and opens a portal to hell before hopping through it. Its gone shortly after.

The cold breeze from the sunny outdoor comforted Asuka frail back while she is standing by the big entrance. Taking their time to glance at several new faces, Asuka had one thought in mind: another school year has begun and she is excited to meet both the old students -those faces hung the usual weary frown- and watching the new freshmen cocking their heads up every time they see the plastic sign with a printed number on them. The curious glances from new faces made Asuka force out an amused chuckle, and she slowly lifted a palm back at them. When no one responds -and some exchanged strange glances between their buddy- Asuka's palm slightly slipped from the sudden loss of strength, and a sigh of disappointment slipped between their lips; already anticipated for this kind of reaction. It'd be nice to gain a small accompany to help each other study, she thought quietly to themself. She clutched tightly to the strap of their bag and strolled along with the crowd.

Asuka finally reached their first class after yielding spaces for some students who were merging into the line. She found out the door of their first class had already been swung open by the staff member, and Asuka could sense the cold air ghosting the classroom and tingling their skin from a few meters away.

Their first step into the class was a blast by the sudden switch of mood, which felt more isolated than in the main hall. Was it the temperature of the classroom or just the morning mood of everyone? She could hardly recognize any familiar faces in the classroom, but she knew soon or later she would find something unique about each of them. She stopped in front of the class to get a better view of all their new classmates. She thought for a while about their new seat. Hardly anyone interacts with each other so she still needs some time. She moves to the side to let more students pass her and finally, she decided who to sit next to with...

She decided to go with their gut instinct and took the seat next to Daiki. Asuka buried themself in between their locked arms, giving them some time to adjust to this new environment. When she is ready, Asuka looks at their neighbor and gives him a warm smile. It will be awkward to just wave at him so she instead uses their comfortable voice.

"Hello." Their voice was deep but very nice to hear.

She tried to warm up to someone- but for now- all she could do is muster out is a simple 'hello'. She gripped tightly to their silk pants out of shyness. Asuka hoped their new neighbor will be at least approachable despite his appearance.

matsukisu akimura. quirk: rainweather. status: healthy. location: the crawler
Matsukisu had chosen to make their way to a seat by this point. They were sitting toward the back now, which was probably the ideal place for introverts. The white-haired teen set their bag on their lap and began to sift through it, looking for something other than water bottles. After finding the object they wanted, they took it out and set it on their corresponding desk.

A large notebook with several tab dividers in it. Matsukisu began to flip through the pages and began to write. If one was to look over their shoulder, they'd see that the teen was scribbling down some sort of letter to their family. Cheesy, yes, but they wanted to make sure that, at the very least, their family would know that Matsukisu was safe and would begin classes relatively soon. Not like faster methods wouldn't work, they just wanted a letter to write.

On occasion, they'd look up and observe their classmates in their natural habitat, then quickly add something. It seemed a bit suspicious, until one was to realize that.. Matsukisu is just uninterested in idle chatter before class. They'd rather just wait for that to happen naturally.

Daiki was pulling something out of his bag when someone had greeted him. Accidentally bumping his head on the desk, he looked up at whoever was greeting him and faced Asuka. "Oh hey," he said, smiling and rubbing the spot where he hit himself, "And sorry, I didn't see ya there at first, was just grabbing one of my notebooks."
