*squints at Arielle as she puts the rose in her hair, lost in thought, then shrugs*
Well, whatever you are, what do you do around here all day?

Well, they haven't cast anything yet, so there's no rehersals. But most people practice their dancing and singing to be ready. We meet new people, and basically have just been hanging out around the opera house and close places in Paris. A lot of people have their romances- *She blushed for a moment* -a couple just got married, actually. It was lovely. Um, but the opera is so big, you can wander around for the rest of your life. I believe that some people come here looking for the manliness of the opera- but that's besides the point. We basically...live. *She thought for a moment* Well, except for those two poor girls who committed suicide. Oh, and we angst. I personally love it here, and haven't met anyone who is unhappy. I didn't meet the girls who committed suicide, though. *She paused* Well, River said that she saw the ghost of one of them, so I might meet her. But...
((I just keep going...and going...and going...with the rambling. Like the energizer bunny!))

*squints at Arielle again, clearly growing weary of the girl*
I see.
*a long pause*
I don't suppose there are single rooms, are there? Not just dormitories?
...because I really don't want to room with any of you.

*Arielle frowned, a bit hurt* I'm sure you could find an empty dressing room or something that you could stay in... but they would be dusty and drafty, I think... *She thought for a minute* Or you could stay at the Hilton hotel, but it's rather expensive.

*sighs and plops down on a bed*
I suppose, after Miss Galinda, I can handle any roomie. Is this bed taken?

Nope! *Arielle bounced slightly on her bed as she fluffed up her pink pillow and then leaned against it* Who is Miss Galinda? That's a pretty name!

*retrieves her broom and hat and arranges them next to the bed with her bag*
Miss Galinda...
*sighs, as if the memory is a great pain to discuss*
...she was my roomie at Crage Hall in Shiz. I'm sure she thought it was a pretty name too, and I'm sure she would tell you so.
*sighs again and stares off into space*
I must admit, for all the annoyance she caused me, I do miss her a bit.
*is silent a moment, then seems to snap back out of it, and reaches for a book*
Anyway.

*Arielle sighed softly* It sounds like you two were friends. And she sounds lovely! *She paused for a moment, but since I'm bored and am waiting to go see Sound of Music decided to go on* Is she your best friend? My best friend is Kellie, but I haven't seen her since the ball, and it was rather...eventful. And she was blown up by V, but who cares? But I'm pretty sure she's been busy exploring and tackling people she doesn't like. We have best friend necklaces, see? *She pulled her half out to show Elphaba* She has the other half.

*barely hears half of what Arielle said, as she's already buried in her book*
I guess she's the closest thing I've ever had--or will ever have--to a best friend.
*continues reading*

I think you can make plenty of friends here, especially if you try! But I suppose you need to focus on your book. *She smiled* I'm tired- if you'll excuse me, I'm going to sleep. *She slipped under the covers and fell asleep instantly*

Evey slowly entered the dormitory, feeling awkward in the bustled blue dress. How on earth did these women move in these clothes? or breath? She looked around the dorm, and finding a top bunk that seemed empty she gestured at the only girl that was awake, "This one taken?"

*glances up when she realizes Evey is talking to her*
Hm? Oh. Oh, I have no idea, I'm new here. It looks free to me.
*eyes the girls' lack of hair and feels slightly less odd about her own color*

Evey smiled, "oh, right then. thanks" the only belongings she had with her being her 'normal' clothes, she threw them up on the bunk. She eyed her own dress and shrugged, not willing to climb in a bustle and sits down in a nearby chair, pulling her wig off with a sigh, looking at the curly blonde mess. She looked up and smiled, "I'm Evey, Evey Hammond"

*considers initiating a handshake, just to see if Evey would touch her, but decides against it and settles for a nod of the head in her direction instead*
