He pondered on his choice of genera. It was indeed hard to say. They all had good quality in the story and there was some that just needed to be used as tinder. “my go to is definitely a good mystery story. After that I would have to say fantasy.” As he spoke, he had subconsciously moved his hand underneath his chin while his pointer finger was slightly extended. “but after that I can’t really say” . He chuckled a little . “I’m curious what you’ll recommend, Luca.”
@bpalmer Luca
Koda
The door was still being held by him and she responded back which to Koda was more of a funny banter back at him which he actually liked. She seemed to have some sarcasm in her and say even if she was scared of him she still joked around with him. Koda laughed at her remark a little. “Well then I guess it’s a good thin you think I can only scare a kitten, but I would never scare a kitten or any animal so I guess i guess it means I am not scary.” He smiled at her. Then she walked in the door and thanked him and called him sir, which felt weird to him but then realized they don’t even know each others names so that’s why she called him sir. “Hey umm would you actually want to hangout? We could go into the town that’s near by? Also my name is Koda by the way.”
@SotaForgotten - Lexi
“Well then I guess it’s a good thin you think I can only scare a kitten, but I would never scare a kitten or any animal so I guess i guess it means I am not scary.” . She could help but laugh a little. She had wanted to add in more but decided against it. "Hey umm would you actually want to hangout? We could go into the town that’s near by? Also my name is Koda by the way.” . She looked him down and up again. “he really is handsome. I could stare all day if I could…” , she thought to herself as she smiled at him. “I’m Lexi. And I wouldn’t mind hanging out with you. Just let me put my bags up in my room real quick. Also, try not to scare any kittens in my absence.” She joked. As she headed up to her dorm room. Opened the door, set the bags on the side that looked vacant and left. Going back outside to met with Koda. “so where to? I’ve never been to this area before so I’m afraid I don’t know where anything is at.”
@Kate Koda
did I ever posted what she is wearing? If not, This is what she’s wearing
Koda
She chuckled at his little I guess i’m not scary then comment. She then said her name was Lexi and that she was going to put her bags in her room real quick and not to scare any kittens in her absence. “Aww but Lexi it is fun scaring cats. Why do you got to ruin my fun especially when no one is around and i’m all by little lonsesome self.” He smiled real quick. “But seriously ok I will just wait here then.”
She then left and came back after a few minutes and mentioned where to since she never been to this are before. “I’ve never been to this area before either or school. This is my first week here, but hey there’s this sweet thing called a phone and maps. I hear that it is very helpful so lets just do that and our phone will tell us where to go. I’ll put it in my phone” He then pulls put his phone and goes to his map app and then types in the town they are in and hits go and it starts telling them where to walk.
@SotaForgotten - Lexi
She had rolled her eyes a little at his phone comment. But decided to play along anyways with a fake gasp. “A phone? Never heard of such thing. What does it do. Witch craft!” she couldn’t help herself from laughing. She followed closely to him, not wanting to get separated or lost. " well, since you had been here since the first day of school. Can you tell me anything about the school? I’ve yet to actually start." she rolled her eyes at the last comment she made.
@Kate Koda
Koda
Koda just laughs at her sarcasm back but he did notice her roll her eyes a little. “Yeah it is witch craft” . She then asked about the school and if he could tell her anything. “Well I was not here the first day either, but not really I don’t really pay attention to school, I just know where things are located and that the headmistress can be strict, that is about it really, sorry I can’t be of more assistance. Where are you from by the way?”
@SotaForgotten - Lexi
] “I’m from a small town in Washington, it doesn’t really have anything to offer. Just a bunch of old retired rich folks and beautiful views. What about yourself?” . She was curious where this person came from. Were all the guys from his area this giant? Or was he a special case? “I’m just wondering, are the people in your area all giants? Or just you?” she had leaned forward a little while looking up at him as she asked this. Hands behind her back. She only straightened herself out while he had answered her question.
@Kate Koda
will be rebranding Lexis picture soon.
As we are walking Lexi told me she was from a small town in Washington. And that the town is retired old people that are rich that mainly live there, but the views are beautiful. Koda. Ever experienced a small town before since he was born and always lived in the city, but he could picture what she described is a lot of small towns. “that sounds really boring to be honest but I could be wrong, but that’s good about the views. I bet you can get some good pictures and stuff.” Lexi also did ask me where I am from and if they are all giants or just me which made me chuckle. “now I can’t really talk for other people and there height. Some are small and some are tall like me. But I’m from New York City, born and raised there and loved it. So this is the first small town I’ve ever been in.”
@SotaForgotten - |Lexi
She thought for a moment before replying. you have no idea how boring it gets. Like it’s not even worth sneaking out since no one wants to do anything" she sighed as she pulled out her phone to show him the pictures. “but yes… the view is breathtaking.” The photo . She felt a sense of longing to be back, but she ignored it knowing that missing home wouldn’t help her build her career in her future. "now I can’t really talk for other people and there height. Some are small and some are tall like me. But I’m from New York City, born and raised there and loved it. So this is the first small town I’ve ever been in.” she hummed a little as she nodded along. This had in a way answered her question. “how are you liking the small town? I know, you probably haven’t been here long enough to actually form an option, but I’m curious nonetheless.”

“It is a bit different… First off the air here taste differently compared to the coast. It doesn’t have that saltiness. It’s also feels cleaner in a way.” . She kicked a small rock as the walked along, her hands still behind her back, holding onto her own arm while walking. “it’s kind of weird not hearing the ocean waves. The seagulls, even the ships that patrol the ocean boarders. It’s more…quiet here.” . She smiled a little, recalling each and every sound she had grown used to hearing all the time. She hadn’t realized she would miss it.
@Kate Koda
Koda looked at his phone to see if they needed to turn anywhere but he was listening to what Lexi said. She mentioned that the air was different and it feels cleaner. Also that its weird not hearing the ocean waves or seagulls and ships and stuff. “Yeah I bet, although I know there is a lake on campus and I don’t think we are that far from a beach but if not the beach then the harbor area but I don’t know. I feel you on the seagulls and ships and patrols that are on the ocean. I mean I am not as close to Canada as you but we get lots of boats and patrols on our waters. There really isn’t any waves since I am more on the harbor area which is called Hudson River. But some noise is definitely nice to hear.” We kept walking a little more and taking a few turns every once in awhile then we get into the town/city area. “Alright we are here so now we can look round or get something to eat.”
@SotaForgotten - Lexi
“food does sound nice. I wonder if there’s a pizza place nearby? Or maybe a burger joint?” she hadn’t realized she was hungry cause after saying this, her stomach grumbled a little. She blushed a little.
@Kate Koda
He was looking around taking in the area and Lexi said she was hungry and then her stomach grumbled which Koda could even hear. “Yeah you sound hungry. Also Pizza and Burgers are very popular and tons of people go to so I am sure there is a few around. Let me look on my phone.” He then takes out his phone and looks some places up. Here take a look and see what you think looks could. Plus I can eat to. And let me guess you are about to say you can always probably eat."
@SotaForgotten - Lexi
She smiled brightly at his last comment. “You aren’t wrong. I’m always down for a good meal.” , she licked her upper lip slightly at the thought of food. “I’m not sure what really sounds good though… Seafood maybe? I don’t know. What are you thinking?”
@Kate Koda
Ryker smiled when she said I was not wrong about the food comment. She also mentioned that she is always down for a good meal and licked her upper lip a little thinking about it. She then said she was not sure what sounded good and added in seafood as well and asked what I thought. “Indecisive are we? How about we go to a burger joint. I am sure they got some seafood options too or Pizza if you decide you want one of those things. And your right I can always eat, that’s how I became so tall” he laughs a little. “So do you have any siblings?”
@SotaForgotten - Lexi
“Indecisive are we?” she rolled her eyes and smiled playfully as he continued. "How about we go to a burger joint. I am sure they got some seafood options too or Pizza if you decide you want one of those things. And your right I can always eat, that’s how I became so tall” . She giggled a little. And then he asked the real question. Family. Her smile seemed to have brighten up at the mention of siblings. She had always adored her happy family life. It was one of the Greatest things she could ever have in life. “I have two younger brothers. What about yourself? Any siblings?”
@Kate Koda
The girl seemed lost in thought but Adriel had absolutely no clue what she was busy thinking about. He didn’t mind talking or meeting other students despite the fact he liked to remain a bit of a wallflower. It was still nice to have friends even if you liked to stay out of the spotlight. Adriel caught himself distracted in thought and looked back at the girl when she said that she was ok. “That’s good was kind of worried that I had hurt you even though you ran into me it looked like you might fall down.” He looked back at her she was a cute girl but looks were not something he cared that much about he was a personality guy and you had to have a winning personality to catch his interest much. “Its fine don’t worry too much about it. I’m fine you are fine so I would say there was no harm.” He shrugged softly and adjusted the strap of his bag again.

Saphira had never imagined herself in this position - looking at her whole life through the car window, the light green house she called “home” disappearing from view with each passing second. Her eyes searched in between the trees until the sight was no more, her knuckles growing white from clenching her purse strap. Deep down she was livid at her parents for sending her away, but at the same time she couldn’t help but feel relieved. She had craved freedom for the longest time, away from the web of lies she was entangled in. It was not hard for her to say goodbye to her parents but saying goodbye to nana really tore her apart internally. Nana was her rock, her safe-space, she was there her entire life and nobody was as special to Saphira. Tearing her eyes away from the car window, she reached for her phone, looking for a distraction from her complex emotions. She messaged someone who she trusted, despite never meeting him in person - Diego.
Saphira: Well it’s done, I’m on my way to the airport.
The drive to Havana was silent at first, but she noticed her bodyguard glancing back at her through the mirror, finally Saphira broke the ice. “I see you looking at me Daniel, penny for your thoughts?”. Turning around to face you he asks, “How are you feeling?”, he paused before continuing, “You know with this new school? New place?”. Saphira placed a finger on her chin, thinking, “Where is this school again? Michigan?”. Daniel let out a hearty laugh before regaining his composure and clearing his throat, “No, it’s in Delaware”. Raising an eyebrow, she tried to pinpoint where exactly in America this “Delaware” was to no avail. She shrugged, answering, “Well, you’ll be with me, I’ll leave the directions to you”. Turning her attention back to the window, the airport was now in sight.
Her flight arrived on a Sunday, giving Saphira time to refresh herself before her first classes on Monday.
Monday
Daniel had insisted on dropping her to school, walking with her all the way to the school’s entrance. He glanced down at her and smiled, “If you need anything just call”, before pivoting his feet and walking back to the car. Saphira gazed up at the school, admiring its architecture. She wasn’t quite ready to go inside yet and she had about an hour before her first class, so she decided to sit on a bench to reorganize her thoughts. Once she was done, she decided to walk around the school grounds, taking in the new scenery. Lost in her thoughts, her foot had gotten stuck in between the cobblestone pathway, sending her, her phone, and her notepad flying.

Koda saw that Lexi rolled her eyes at his comment of being undecisive. He is just honest and will say what is on his mind which can be a good and bad thing. She then noticed her smile hen he asked about her family which he took she liked to talk about. He then put the burger joint in his GPS and they started to walk and Lexi said she had 2 younger brothers and then asked about himself and if he had any siblings. “oh very nice, are you close to them? As for me yeah I have 3 sisters 2 are older and 1 is younger than me, and I have a younger brother as well.”
