*Sigh*

Veronica groggily walked through the dorm halls, still quite sleepy, but at least not as much like back at the welcome party where she just sat in the corner of the room after introducing herself. She stretched her limbs as she walked through, until she was pretty much completely awake by the time she reached the common kitchen, and once there, headed straight to go make a cup of coffee to deal a final blow to her sleepiness.

Clover wasn't far behind Veronica, coincidentally leaving the welcome party around the same time. He still kept a cup of soda from the party and occasionally took a sip from it, trying to save as much of it as possible. Clover was heading through the dorms to be out in his room, planning to stay in for the rest of day and doing his own thing. 


Unfortunately, Clover's sense of direction was a little off. The boy finding himself lost in the dorms and wandering aimlessly. Eventually coming across the kitchen where he encountered Veronica.

Clover still had his blue blanket wrapped around himself concealing his body, with only his hands poking out and holding the cup of soda. The sleeves on his dangling way below his hands, it looked as if he were a praying mantis. The boy didn't say nothing as he stared at Veronica, not sure if he should say hello and introduce himself, taking a sip of his soda in the process.

Veronica took a first sip into the coffee she just made for herself, while trying to comb her hair with her hands. She just started tying up her hair into her usual pigtailed look when she looks back and realizes Clover was indeed there.

She took a double glance before reacting to the fact with a rather loud "OI WHAT IN THE-" Before something switched in her head and she calmed herself down before she made any more rather unnecessary noise with her surprise at the blanketed guy just staring right at her.

"Uhh, well... 'yo there", the girl just finishing up doing her hair greeted. "Erm... Clover, right?" Veronica recalled the people who all introduced themselves back there, still wondering to herself if she did indeed remember correctly and hopefully not just blurting out some other person's name to this guy.
Shirley
Clover nodded in response to Veronica, affirming that she was correct. He took another sip of his soda, trying to look busy with himself as he slowly came up with a response. 

"And you're Veronica?" Clover replied, his tone coming off monotone and tired. Though in reality Clover felt fine and quite nervous in talking to Veronica. Seeing as he never socialized much in person. 

Clover didn't know what to do next, so he let out a small wave to Veronica. His sleeves swaying side to side as he eventually went back to holding his cup with both hands.
Adrienne
Veronica smiled broadly to Clover, uttering out loudly a "Yeah! Veronica Ironwood, don't ya forget it!", finishing up her coffee right after with a gulp.

Inside, Veronica really appreciated that someone else remembered of her, especially the person who she wasn't even sure there if she got the name right. On the outside, she just adjusted her outfit so as to look less unkempt.

Turning back to Clover, Veronica finished up tying her pigtails and made sure it even looked right. "So, what's up- oh, ya just came from the party too, eh?", she continued talking to him, not minding or rather not really having much care towards Clover's tired and monotone way of speaking and such.
Shirley
Clover nodded again to Veronica, making a mental note to remember her. So far Clover was making decent social progress, at least for his standards. He finished his cup of soda in a couple of sips before slowly starting to sit down. Finding that standing up was starting to get uncomfortable.

"Hm?" Clover says as if he didn't understand her, "Oh, yes. Too many people there though. Wanted to go home." 

Clover didn't keep much eye contact with Veronica. The boy looking as if he's seeing right past her. Whenever he did make eye contact though Clover would quickly dart his eyes away. Huddling himself deeper into his blanket.
Adrienne
Veronica nodded with Clover's reply as she really listened in to what he was saying. "Oh yeah, pretty much the same too, though for me, it was because I didn't really get much actual sleep coming here, so yeah!"

She then sat down across to where Clover was after putting her now-empty coffee cup aside to clean later. "Well, I apparently just took a rather short nap just now, but I can't really get myself to sleep anymore for now, so yeah, I guess I'm just going to roam the place and stuff...", she continued.

Veronica looked Clover intensely for a bit there, given him being all up inside a blanket, though when Clover darted his eyes away, she just did a mostly-mental shrug and, well... Shrugged it off.
Shirley
"Roaming is fun, sometimes you see good things to write about. Like a setting sun or a person shopping. I do a lot of roaming in my sleep." Clover says closing his eyes (eye really) as if reminiscing. He then sets down his cup besides him and retracts his arms into his blanket. Before coming back out with a small notebook and pencil in hand.

Clover then begins to write notes about Veronica, jotting down details such as her being shorter than him and not getting much sleep. He kept the notebook close to himself so that Veronica couldn't see him writing. And it took Clover a moment to realize that he was being rather odd at the moment, so he quickly reached his arms back into his blanket. 

"Soooo, you're new here right?"

It seemed like a rather dumb and obvious question to ask, but Clover had no idea what else to go off on at the moment. So he just blurted out whatever he could muster.
Adrienne
"Yeah, it is pretty nice to just walk up and about without much thought- wait what" Veronica looked at Clover not even knowing what she even heard back there. Once again, she just kinda mentally shrugs the thing off, though not working as much as earlier with her still kinda having an "...Eh?" Face for quite a bit there.

Once again, Veronica just stares towards Clover since he's just all bunched up in his blanket. "Anyways... Hmm, yeah, writing... Pretty neat.", she continued without noticing him even writing and stuff.

"New here?" Veronica's "...Eh?" Face returned. "Well... Yeah, aren't all of us who got pulled up on stage new here?" Veronica then glanced a bit at her hands, then continued on talking.

"Hmm... So... *What're ya in here for?*", Veronica asked the seemingly very cozy lad in a tough-guy-impression voice, then giggling a bit right after. "Yeah, how'd you end up here, if, well, I could ask ya that..."
Shirley
"Yes yes, new here." Clover says as he got visibly more nervous as he noticed that Veronica gave him the *'eh'* Face. His face turning a slight shade of red as he tried to get himself through the conversation.

He gave a sigh of relief when Veronica switched to another topic. "No no its fine. I uh-"

Clover couldn't find himself to speak. Now having second doubts on whether or not to tell a stranger his past. He wasn't entirely comfortable with anyone knowing about him. But now that he responded, was he obligated to answer the question?

"Things." He replied simply.
