Walter Rogers:
It certainly had been an interesting first few hours at the academy, and it certainly gave promising to be an entertaining school year if nothing else.
He had met his roommate who felt is really important to tell him his sexual orientation, he had been stared at by some kid in the hall who looked like he had seen a ghost, Found some girls necklace which apparently wasn't a bloodstone but REAL blood- freaked him out a bit. Then to top it off he had been bombarded with some girl with inhuman proportions who looked like she stepped out of a Japanese cartoon and not real life, he honestly didn't know people like that even could exist.
"How does her body support her head?" He mused walking through the halls. He had to get away from all the buzzing activity, just giving himself time to think, to adjust to this new place and all the new faces. What troubled Walter is SO many of those faces seemed unhappy. He thought they would be excited coming to this school, people like them, people who understood being different in one way or another... instead they all seemed miserable or just angry.
He ran to his room and grabbed his swim-trunks and stuffed them in his gym backpack and headed back down- his dad had told him about the amazing facilities here and Walter was keen to try them out.
"Oh Lord...." He reeled at he walked into the boys locker room, it stunk, well... like a boys locker room. He quickly changed into his trunks and headed to the pool room, it was a long deep lap-pool, multicolored buoys separating the lanes. Walter grinned, apart from running with his dad on the trails around Taughannock park, swimming was one of his favorite things to do. He walked over to the bleachers and kicked off his shoes, setting his bag down- he noticed one of the girls and waved.
"Hi! Hows the water?" she didn't even react, Walter sighed, "What is it with the girls here?" He murmured as he stripped off his shirt, and stretched before diving into the water. He came up shaking the water from his hair and began doing laps, getting rid of some of the energy he was constantly infused with. The water felt nice, not too cold but then again not to warm. Walter dived and started back down the pool- mind wandering to the more mundane things of life.
If his dad had checked him in with Ms Prince? if he'd meet anyone he might make friends with? if any of the girls here at school would maybe talk to him?
"Good form."
Walter stopped abruptly and looked around,
"Wha-?" He noticed he wasn't alone in the pool, the girl he had passed in the hall, with the mask on was bobbing behind him, head on one side. "Oh, Hello Miss." Walter turned, treading water and smiled.
