Character(s): Rion Lyon (

derped ) and Nill (

sansvoice )
Location: Dorm A210.
Rating: G. Seriously. Did you even look at the characters involved?
Open/Closed/Finished: Closed.
Summary: Rion is a dumb about dumb things, and Nill is a helper.

Alone in his room again. Of course Shinra was out - Shinra was always busy with Celty. It seemed like they were attached at the hip, and while Rion was grateful that sometimes he got some alone time... to be honest, he didn't always want to be alone. (Not that he really was; he had classmates all around him, and occasionally went to meetings and things, like the Library Committee. It's important to note that Rion's perception of things and what might actually be happening might be two different things.)

And for the last few days he'd just been... dwelling on things, still. Right now he was theoretically studying (more Garden Code things), but his mind was elsewhere, and if he were the sort of person who would (or could) audibly make his feelings heard, he'd sigh. But that really wasn't the sort of thing the tiny guy did anyway. He didn't want to inconvenience anyone else with his issues, considering they probably had more important things to deal with anyway.

Now, to try to get back to reading the Garden Code. A difficult task under most circumstances, but with all that on his mind, well, Rion really wasn't getting very far.

Nill had been feeling a guilty since the blackjack situation in the cafeteria. She had successfully brought Abel back to the table, but Rion had run off in the mean time. And since then, she hadn't been able to get a chance to sit down with him. She wanted to be sure that everything was alright. Nill clutched a textbook to her chest, intending to arrive under the guise of wanting to study. She wasn't even sure if the book she had grabbed was a class that they shared, but it was worth a try.

Now that she was in front of the door to Rion's door, she felt a bit hesitant. Nill took several minutes to shuffle about, glancing up and down the hallway nervous. Well... she was already here.

Knock, knock, knock.

Rion's quiet moping and vague attempts at study were interrupted by the knocking, and he looked up - it wasn't like it would be someone for him, would it? Maybe it was Celty wondering where Shinra was (unlikely), or someone else looking for Shinra. Maybe Einiona, but she was busy, wasn't she? Oh well. He could at least get up and answer the door, right?

His feet hit the floor almost silently as he walked across the dorm, thoughts churning in him. He wanted this to just get over with so he could go back to studying (poorly), because it's not like people ever showed up for him (never mind that Einiona had been over before, and occasionally other people came to see him, too; Rion is, after all, a broody teenager).

One hand gripped the doorknob and swung the door open, and--

Oh. ... that wasn't who he'd been expecting at all. Rion's mood visibly brightened up a little as he saw Nill at the door (mind you, given his current mood this was more along the lines of going from :( to :/ than anything else), though he wasn't sure why she was ... here? She had a textbook with her; did she want to study with him, or something? He motioned her into the dorm (unless she wanted to talk out there; he couldn't tell, yet.)
