Continuum Shift [FINISHED]
Who: Jin, Tsubaki & You
Rating: E for everyone, now R for Racism
Where: Near the Balamb Garden Registration Office
Summary: Having just recently been admitted to Garden, Jin and Tsubaki still reel from the unlikely circumstances they find to them. Walking to their newly assigned dorms, the two talk between themselves as the situation begins to settle.
Special Note: Opening post is jointly written by myself andcryingcamellia
Jin Kisaragi stepped out from the admissions office of Balamb Garden, green eyes scanning his acceptance letter with rapt attention. Everything seemed to be in order and expected there, newly issued school uniform hanging casually in its tote on his other arm. With his sponsorship, dorm and class schedule lined up it appeared the Kisaragi heir had little else to do but appreciate the fact that he was now fully enrolled into his unexpected new life.
Assuming, that is, he could really accept such a ridiculous prospect.
"This all still seems unbelievable, doesn't it?" The cadet speaks quietly aside to his redheaded companion and fellow enrolled as he begins to walk, mentally evaluating the many difference in the Garden's design than that of Torifune's as the a polished slate of marble passed beneath an east saunter, "Time compression, stealing people at random. A world without Ars Magus, entirely different magic systems to learn.." He spoke about these things as if they were the troublesome problems of somebody else, but a note of interest in new challenges might be gleaned from his pessimism. "I presume you got your sponsorship, Tsubaki?" His eyes casually lifted to her confirmation letter, though he did not dare read it without permission.
Although the brilliantly red-headed young woman didn't look like she was being possessive of her acceptance letter. She mostly just looked deep in thought. But while Jin treated this new enrollment with stoic calmness, her words were more... carefully chosen.
"...Hm? Oh, yes, it seems I did," She says, as if she had had any doubt. "I'm not sure if that's uncommon or not, though. It wasn't a very difficult interview."
But she sounds distracted. She folds her arms politely across each other, with her new uniform hung over one arm and her acceptance letter and dorm assignments in the other. And though she may try to hide it, there's something in her voice she can't quite hide--A hint of worry. Uneasiness. "...It is unbelievable. I don't think it's really settled in yet. Time compression, strange worlds... And it happened so quickly, too. If we hadn't worked late that night, would we have just avoided this? Was it really just us being at the wrong place at the wrong time? It seems..."
Unfair would have been an impolite word.
"...Still hard to believe, still."
"I thought it was some kind of illusion ars at first." Jin admitted, having no particular comment for how rigorous or not Balamb's interview process was, "But it would've had to have been an extremely skilled user to lay one down without my noticing." Some part of him wonders if that might not still be the case, and he wandered like a fool in a prison he did not recognize, "But it seems we can't depend on the simplest explanation here. I suppose we'll have to make do. But..." He sighed, "I'd say you shouldn't have stayed late to help me, but I don't imagine that would have stopped you. I'm just glad you weren't by yourself." And as far as people to share such an odd experience with, Tsubaki was the only one he would've picked.
"I suppose we'll need to look into come clubs to join. I wonder if there's a student council.." Already, Jin's mind was keen on the path to influence and power, ever the Kisaragi.

"You can have classes together if you like, but you can take any of the classes in any order unless they have prerequisites! And most of the compulsory classes don't. So it all depends on what you want to study. I'm doing Piloting, and Ranged Weapons, myself!"

He's not quite sure why something so mundane cheers Tsubaki either, but he's glad that it does, politely avoiding inquiring exactly what Rainbow Dash might be able to pilot without...well, necessities. Maybe they went further in supporting a diverse student population than Jin anticipated.
"I imagine we'll be assigned roommates as well. I think only SeeDs get private stays." Hardly a problem, considering his last roommate. But who in the world could replace Tsubaki's two...encouraging roommates?
A cold chill in the back Jin's neck suggested he did not want to know.

"It's just a novel situation," She says, dismissing the whole topic. She was younger than Jin, so they hadn't had the opportunity to take classes together. It wasn't that big a deal, right?
Besides, whatever little silly enthusiasm she had pales a little at Jin's two matter-of-fact comments. Her voice is a touch softer when she speaks again. "That's practical, of course. A world without Ars is strange enough. But..."
"...New roommates. Yes, that's right, isn't it." She says, a note of sadness on her voice. "...There really will be a great deal to get used to here."

"Don't worry about roommates, most people here are okay. And sometimes if there's open space you don't have one. I don't right now... though that might be because I put a cloud in the room to sleep on and there's not much space," she admitted. "You probably ought to get the magic classes out of the way first. You know, paramagic and Guardian Forces. I still don't know if I entirely understand it... I'm not SUPPOSED to be using magic, I'm a pegasus."

"Don't worry, Tsubaki." The Kisaragi's hand weighed down on her shoulder with all the reassurance 'Jin-niisama' ought to provide, "We'll be getting used to things together." Another smile! It wouldn't do to have her getting depressed or anything.
"That matter can rest for another day. It looks like we're here." The blonde's eyes alighted on a label welcoming them to the dorms, "Thanks for your help, Rainbow Dash."
