School is going to be lots more fun now.</em><br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">"Well, if either of you could and would show me the way to the dorms, I could get rid of this, and rejoin you all quicker."</blockquote><div class="quotefooter"><div class="botslice_quote"></div></div>The two freshman girls came past. I held out my hand to them, palm up then spoke to one of them.<br/><br/><strong>"You, take this boy's bag to..."</strong>I fished in my blazer pocket and drew out a sheet of paper I'd picked off a stack pinned to the dorm notice board. I unfolded it and scanned the list of names.<em>Oh, he's in our dorm.</em><strong>"...Take the bag to my dorm. Red room, bed one. And be quick about it!"</strong>I called after her as I took the bag gently from Darsten-san's hand and gave it to the girl.<br/><br/>I leaned in the doorway to the headmistress' office and smiling, closed the door,<strong>"<em>Arigato, Kiminikobe-kouchou-sensei,</em> we can take care of him from now."</strong>I bowed and the door clicked closed.<br/><br/><strong>"Good!"</strong>I grinned and turned back to Katra and the boy, bouncing happily on my toes,<strong>"That's that taken care of. Now. Lunch?"</strong><em>Come on! Come on, comeoncomeon...!</em>I lifted a hand and indicated the way back towards the lockers and main entrance.
