Marshall listened as Hazel explained the dorms and gave them a slight tour of the grounds. Unlike his siblings, he preferred to stay home rather than explore this place so it was as new to him as it was everyone else. He was in awe that Hazel was even able to pull something like this together mostly of her our accord. The quiet atmosphere and calming aura that surrounded the dorms made him feel like he was home. It was every bit as beautiful as the manor he spent all that time in. Hearing the rooming assignments Marshall started to chuckle, something he seldom did hearing Nathan protest against being roomed with him. "He's grown tired of me it seems." He mumbled halfheartedly. The two of them spent a great deal of time together so he couldn't say he didn't agree that he wished to be his own person. His new roommate did concern him though, a human by the name of Evangelos. Too long. He thought deciding he'd come up with some kind of nickname for him so he didn't have to address him by full government each time. As the group started to part ways the tall dragon found himself wondering what to do as den father, what it meant to take care of someone. The dragon wanted to be for them what Hazel was for him, someone nurturing that they could look up to. He heard a song sung softly in the distance making him wonder how to go about this. His ears recognized the charm that could have been placed on someone who wasn't him but something as weak and unconcentrated as that wouldn't hold much effect on someone with a will as strong as his so he paid it little mind.
"So, little dragon, how about we make cookies?" Marshall turned to the frightened lamb of a dragon that clung to his side. "Oh yeah, I never got your name did I? How rude of me to forget my manners. My name is Marshall, and yours is..?" He asked as he tugged him along. Marshall tugged him by the arm as he hovered into the dorm and straight to the kitchen. The cupboards were fully stocked in preparation of the new student arrivals so everything he'd need was already here. He started to prep the area, turning on the kitchen lights and setting various objects onto the counter. Marshall had learned how to make the dough from scratch from watching a variety of chefs on television perform the same action. "You know they say... if you share a cookie with someone who's special or in need it brightens their heart because it's like sharing a piece of yourself. I... I want everyone to feel comfortable here... comfortable enough that they don't have to be afraid of people like us anymore and see us as no different from them." Marshall may seem like a cold, distant person but he always managed to speak from his heart when it came down to it. Spending all that time with his new family had given him a new appreciation for comforting others.
Nova followed along to the tour remembering the route they took to and from the school so she wouldn't get lost in the morning. Everything about this place was surreal, straight of a storybook. The onlooking city lights that illuminated from the distance, the quiet mountainside that kept them locked into this private are, the clear ponds and lake that sparkled under the moonlight. It inspired her in ways she hadn't felt while she spent her life in the city. Nova wasn't much of a forest girl but she had an appreciation for the rawness of nature. Hazel explained the rooming as she called out who would be paired together. Marceline? I wonder who that was... She glanced around but before she had the chance to deduce who her new roommate was everyone had dispersed. Some went inside, presumably heading to sleep while others ventured out. "I think this place is very cool." She looked absolutely awestruck, it was obviously written all over her face. Nova wanted to explore every inch of this place but where to start was the question. A girl called out to everyone from the lake, happily splashing about and enjoying herself but the blonde didn't see getting soaked tonight as part of the agenda. Maybe tomorrow though. She wheeled her suitcase onto the deck leaving it inside next to the front door before returning Nathan's question. "Come on plant boy let's go explore the woods. Maybe we'll see something amazing." She smiled petting him on the head before twirling past him. Going for a run through the forest was something that would give her the opportunity to breathe, away from the others and away from the excitement. She wore sneakers and stretchy pants today just for move in so nothing should be obstructed from her movement. "Unless you're less like a wolf pup and more like a scared baby chick," she teased sticking her tongue out as she started skipping into the woods.
The strawberry blonde shot up the moment the stage came back to life with their host. Finally sleep! Cora thought setting the frog back on Etienne's lap and gathering her belongings. She listened carefully about the dorm situation including the addition of their roommates. Cora had never shared a room in her life and now she was to share with a girl named Ava. She didn't know what to think of it but she was actually rather glad she wasn't alone. Being so far from home was scary enough so having someone beside her, even if they never spoke, was more than comforting. Hopefully, the girl felt somewhat the same. Cora went inside setting her belongings down on the left side of the room claiming it as her own. The room was cozy looking like a little romantic cabin from a cliche movie. She would have never seen herself in a situation like this given her prestigious upbringing but welcomed the fresh air. It was a good change of pace than luxury hotels, fancy beach houses, and catered mansions. Hmmm I should find Etienne. She thought setting her backpack on the bed for her to go through later. She wanted to at the very least say goodnight to the fellow before disappearing into a bear-like slumber for the night. As she exited the room something called to her attention, a voice unlike one she had heard before. It was soothing yet enticing and the girl yearned to hear more. Finding Etienne was put on hold as she unknowingly went to find the source of that voice. Her legs carried her to the backyard slowly searching for where that sound was from spotting a mint haired woman sitting on the deck. "Was... was that you? That voice from earlier..?" Her dual toned eyes seemed different as if they were searching for something under the charm that had caught her. Whether the girl was aware of it or not Cora was definitely intrigued by the mysterious woman before her. She's... so pretty.. and sings like something I haven't heard... She was completely mesmerized by that voice, not just for its simple beauty but because it swelled emotion inside her that she wasn't sure how to express other than with action. "It makes me want... to dance to it... under the moonlight for you..."
