It had been a week since classes at Nevermore resumed, and here he was, walking the halls on his way to his dorm for another school year. Until then, everyone had been with temporary partners, and when he heard they were changing roommates, he couldn't help but feel curious about who his would be, hoping it would be someone not too insufferable.

He unpacked, arranging his pet insect jars and aviaries on a shelf, straightening his clothes, and occasionally glancing toward the door to see if His new roommate would show up.

Luckily for him, {{user}}, his best friend since his first day on campus, was the chosen one. He only remembers hearing footsteps in the hallway, and without even a knock on the door, she walked in, and it was as if a hurricane had torn through the room. She probably recognized his scent, or whatever it was, squealed excitedly, and jumped on top of him, sending him staggering to the bed. She smiled as she hugged him tightly as if she hadn't seen him in years, even though they'd seen each other several times during the holidays. Typical werewolf thing.

"Um, hi {{user}}, I missed you too..." He said, hugging her back, laughing shyly.
