When: Tuesday night [backdated]
Where: Dorm room
What: Sofia has moved into the school! Time to meet the roommate.
Sofia Mantega had taken over what was normally an empty side of the room occupied by Paige Guthrie. Her flight with Sean Cassidy to New York had been early, with Sofia having little reason to stay in Colorado after she had made her good-bye to Derek. They left while the weather was good, finding only a bit of turbulence as they made their approach for New York. The bumpy ride didn't bother Sofia, too excited and trusting in her wind powers to save the day if they had to. Except she had no reason to back this belief. The only time she had really lashed out with her powers and pushed them to their limit was in destroying her father's grocery store. That only entailed swirling dozens of relatively lightweight items around as she flew about. If Sean was to be understood, she would get a chance to get better at controlling her aerokinesis here.
After the tour from Sean, she was escorted to a dorm room where she would be staying. Sofia was scared to see she had a roommate. She would love to have one, but only if she enjoyed Sofia's company. Which most girls hadn't seemed to at her rich boarding school. Sofia reminded herself that this school would be different though, and set about unpacking on her own. She had taken frequent breaks on her purple laptop, coated with stickers on it. She found a WiFi signal and explored the Internet, mostly checking out the new e-mail account and journal system Sean had said was created for her.
Sitting on her bed amidst the piles of belongings and awkward luggage, Sofia contemplated about the other side of the room. It seemed so clean, a fact Sofia had to make note of. She would have to keep her side of the room clean! It was only fair. She also worried what this girl would be like, where she was from, and if she would accept Sofia. All she knew about her roommate was that her name was 'Paige'. Page? Sofia didn't understand what kind of name that was and had been too flustered to remember to ask Mr. Cassidy ... for once. Contemplating her future nervously, Sofia flopped backward to stare at the ceiling. In the process she bumped her head onto a suitcase, wincing with a Spanish swear word.
