Who: Fenrir, Zevira
Where: A generic hallway
When: Afternoon (post bed-busting)
What: On her way back from throwing laundry in the dryer, Zevira runs into a rather unfriendly face.
The only thing on the young Gemman's mind between her dorm room to the laundry room was the fact that she had bent the metal in the platform of her bed. Mentally she replayed what she had done, to see if there was some clue as to why it had happened. No. Nothing. The same thing she did every time to get on her bed happened. Zevira had stepped back about three paces or so, took quick strides, and lightly leaped onto the bed. Everyday it was the same thing and nothing happened to the bed then. Most of the time she was careful to not even make a sound when she got on the bed by putting her hands down first and rolling onto her rear once she was more or less on. That was the same today, too.
In the bathroom where she kept a scale she weighed herself. Same as usual, if not perhaps a pound over. (Zevira kept a scale more for a gem count than her actual weight. She weighed more than a girl her body size would due to the solid gemstones in her skin.) It was quite troubling. So far the only bites to her journal online were Cassie. That silly girl. Sometimes Zevira didn't know whether or not to take what she said seriously or laugh it off. Their brief conversation about Vinnie had left the Gemman to nod and pretend like she really
knew what Cassie was talking about. Without proof she wasn't going to condemn Vinnie to "player" status. It was just easier to agree than argue.
She had bent the metal framework under the mattress after returning from putting her clothes in the washer. Most of the time she didn't wait so long to do her laundry but the machines had been filled whenever she went to go do it. Now that she finally had a chance she figured she might as well. Grabbing two dryer sheets and her school ID card, Zevira went to the laundry room and threw her things into the stacked dryers, taking up two. Her things would dry better if it was spread out. Adding the sheets, she went to shut the lowest machine door. The aluminum of the door banged so fiercely with her (what she thought was usual) soft touch that it didn't even shut appropriately and swung back open. Gasping, Zevira very carefully pushed both of the doors closed, started the machines, and started to run back to her room.
What if she had been palling around with a friend and pushed them? If a lock on a door didn't shut a person was not going to stand. What if they got hurt because of her? Trying not to worry and just get back to her room to maybe watch some television, chill out and relax, there came a dark figure in her way. Throwing up her hands to try and stop herself, Zevira collided with a man's wide chest before falling to the ground. If that tile cracked she was going to drop out of school and go live in her house forever.
Fortunately, it didn't crack.
"I'm sorry!" cried the pink haired student as she looked up from behind a flurry of curls that had fallen in her face. "Are you alright?"
