Week 0: Monday

[ercnerd]

[He's on his way out of the gymnasium when he catches sight of Adora, whose name he definitely knows yet absolutely refuses to use, because he's a punk.]

If it isn't Blondie! How's first day of class going for you?

[superjock]

[squints at a lot]

... The classes I went to didn't make any sense at all.

What about you, uh... Not-Blondie?

[ercnerd]

I've heard enough singing to go without it for a week. Now I'm just taking a look around.

[superjock]

[..........]

So, uh.

Here's the thing. I'd kind of like to get to know you better. Is that alright?

[ercnerd]

[?]

All right. What do you want to know?

[superjock]

Just... the usual stuff people learn when they're getting to know each other?

Like... I don't know, what's your favorite color? How about your favorite place in this school so far? Stuff like that.

[ercnerd]

. . . You're not very good at this, are you?

[superjock]

[...buries her face in her hands.]

You don't have to call me out on it...

[ercnerd]

[Haha.]

My favorite color is black; my favorite place, the couch.

[superjock]

[thank u for your mercy.]

Black... suits you, yeah.

... The couch, for like. Napping?

[ercnerd]

So far it's been the best place for relaxing.

[superjock]

What dorm are you in again? I hope it's got some good couches for you, at least.

[ercnerd]

It does. I'm in Spring.

Any more questions?

[superjock]

Oh, you're the first Spring I've met. Or, at least, the first one who's said so.

[...]

Uhh... what are other friendship questions...?

[ercnerd]

Here. I have a question for you.

[His easygoing expression twists into a frown.]

You were the one who stole my pudding, weren't you?

[superjock]

... I did what now?

[ercnerd]

Are you playing dumb?

[superjock]

... No? I'm not playing!

[A beat]

And I'm not dumb either!

I haven't stolen any pudding.

[ercnerd]

. . . No, you definitely have. Only a guilty culprit would answer so nervously!

[superjock]

I have literally no idea what you're talking about.

[SIEG??]

[ercnerd]

[Hey, Adora.]

That's exactly what the culprit would say. You can't fool me!

[superjock]

[rude]

Sieghart... I have no idea what you're talking about.

But hey, if you need some help finding your pudding or whatever, I'm willing to give it a shot.

[ercnerd]

Is this a ploy to return the pudding you took? If so, I'll accompany you.

[superjock]

[SLAPS HER FOREHEAD WITH A HAND.]

No, because I didn't take your pudding.

But. Ugh. Whatever. Come on, let's go look.

[ercnerd]

[No, because she stole it.]

Should we start with the cafeteria?
