Room 403; Monday Evening [ 05/14 ].

Fawn was surprised, although pleasantly and bittersweetly so, to find that a package had come to her that day, her family sending her various things to wish her well and mention that they were missing her, little antecdotes to fill her in on what she had missed in her brief time away from them. There were several pages, one main letter written by

After the first day on the shuttle, Sia had been wanting to check in on Fawn. Today was the day she actually did it, though she paused at the doorway to listen for a moment, just in case she was disturbing her.

Fawn used the force was getting that feeling one got when they thought they were being watched and then realized that she had left the door open, so it was entirely possible that she was. She turned her head to glance over her shoulder and when she saw that her intuition was correct, she nearly jumped out of her skin. She fumbled a little to turn the cassette, eyes wide and living up to her name.

"Oh! Sorry!" she said, as if it wasn't her room that she was in listening to her music. "I didn't mean...is it too loud? I forgot to close the door, I guess."

"Not at all," Sia assured her, even smiling a bit. "I was hoping I'm not interrupting, actually, but I wanted to see how you were."

"How I am...?" Fawn stared for a moment, blinked, and then drew in a breath. "Fine," she said, a bit quickly. "I'm fine. How are you?"

She closed her eyes a moment, holding onto the desk with her cassette player on it, and took a deep breath, or else she would have started twitching. And, in that moment, her brain was able to catch up with her and she remembered where she knew the other girl from. "Right," she said. "You're....Marasiah, right? From the shuttle? And I think we have a class together..." Though she couldn't for the life of her remember what it was at that moment, she was too busy trying to get a grip on herself and stop acting like such a spaz.
