Volt watched as Back Track unpacked his things. "That's a lot of electronics you have there... And a lot of things you would need to charge... I can generate electricity!" Volt blurted out. He had always had trouble telling ponies that fact, often times rushing it or saying it awkwardly, or both.

"N-no thanks, I just- this is my stuff and it's very delicate. I mean no offense it's just I don't know you or anything yet," He said trying not to offend his feelings though it felt like he was failing.

 

"Ummm so what's your major?" He asked trying to change the subject.

Volt smiled nervously. "Heh, yea I guess... Oh I'm majoring in electrical engineering! I feel like my ability could come in handy in that field. How bout you? I assume it's some sort of tech related thing?" Volt wasn't honestly planning on doing anything with his major, since he wanted to be a weather pony in Baltimare. But he needed something, and electrical engineering was the only thing that had even slightly interested him.

"Well ummm currently, I'm enrolled in Computer Security," There was more to this than he let on but Back Track kept that hidden for now. The unicorn packed his laptop in his saddlebag, getting ready for the library and read some of the textbooks. You could tell that the colt was uncomfortable.

Pelate trots into Equestria University and he signs in and moves on. "Wow life went fast, through high school and now, im in EQU" he cheerfully said to himself. "We'll I should head for my dorm. I'm roomies with blaze finder it seems."

Pelate goes up some stairs and I to his dorm room 'nice place' he thought. Pelate finds a flame colored pony inside. 'Wow he's like the me with opposite colors' Pelate thought "uh, Hello, It looks like I'm your room mate. I'm Pelate." He says in a causal tone dropping his luggage on his side of the room. @@Ampharos

After awhile Psych circled back to her dorm so she could unpack.  She was delighted to find it empty.  She unpacked her multitude of books and knitting supplies, along with her large wooden pill box.  She quickly grabbed her papers and headed to the library.

((Busy day, busy day. Sorry I'm late. Had to make the trip home from school via the scenic route, since I was dropping other people off too. I'm not complaining, they paid for the gas.))

((waitwaitwait. Are these all actually seperate dorm buildings? Or just different rooms in one dorm?))

Descant trotted busily down the long hallway that was the building that he had been informed he would be living in that year. He carried a simple suitcase, a heavy-looking backpack and an oddly-shaped case with him - the case was following him, engulfed in his maroon magical aura. He paused outside a slightly-ajar door, and glancing at the loose piece of paper he had been given with his rooming assignment, backed into the room, attempting to ease his stuff in without banging everything up in the process.

Descant tenderly placed his baggage on the floor, looked around, and spotted the pony that he was supposed to be rooming with. He stared for a couple of moments at the tacky-looking splotched coat, then smirked slightly, nodded politely in greeting, and looked away. I suppose I should have expected an appearance like that from someone named Camou Flage, he mused as he started pulling tedious-looking books with titles like Advanced Alveromancy and Audiomancy Techniques by Allegro, Back to Brassline Basics by Beauty Brass, and Magical Me by Gilded Lock-Heart out of his bag and onto his desk.

Camou looks up from his book and stares at the books that Descant has. "From the looks of your books, you seem to be into the arts, oh the arts can be quite marvelous to watch, anyway I'm Camou, I've come from Ponyville, I guess you'e my roommate." He doesn't want to say much though. "I hope he's not a jerk or judgmental."

Descant shrugged. "Yeah, music's my calling, I guess." He continued to unpack more tedious-looking books that were along the lines of the first few, then began organizing them busily. "I guess so," he agreed, referring to how Camou had guessed that they were roommates. He didn't seem to be in much of a conversational mood as he turned from his books to the dresser. Moving the oddly-shaped case out of the way, he began magicking ties and hats and scarves and socks and stuff into the dresser, where it all began to fit in neatly.

Camou looks up and checks to see if his lucky scarf is still there. Sure enough, it's still hanging on the back door where he put it.

"Excuse me, if you're organizing clothes and stuff, can you please not touch the scarf located on the back of the door, sort of a treasured gift my mom gave me." He sits there for a second, thinking about his parents but then quickly gets back to reality.

He smirked - it had worked out for the best at the time and, in a round-about way, was what had caused him to want to learn to use his abilities in the first place.

"Okay," Descant said, glancing over his shoulder at the scarf and the pony staring at it. "You all right?" He asked awkwardly, turning away from his stuff, and trotting towards his new roommate. Until, with a loud thunk, he tripped over the case he had left in the middle of the floor.

 

"Celestia knows... I really need to stop leaving that thing lying around," he muttered to himself, pushing the case into a corner of the room.

"Are you okay?" Camou asked in a curious manner. "Never mind that, anyway going back to what you said before you tripped, I'm okay just thinking about my parents and wondering what they're doing in the world and if they really wanted me to come here." Camou then let out a huge sigh still thinking about them.

"I'm fine," Descant mused as he dusted himself off fussily. "Just kinda clumsy." He froze as he heard the final part of Camou's statement, and slowly looked over at the colt. "I... You... Didn't you know your parents?" He asked awkwardly. If that was true, and Camou had no parents, then he, Descant, would feel pretty guilty about sneering at his patched coat...
