[Friends that Remember Paradisa]

[He sounds a lot younger, but the overly casual tone is there]

It's Zelos. So where are you guys end up?

[Filtered to Students not likely to rat him out]

[After attempting to do homework all day, Zelos has given up on trying to do all this stuff on his own. There was just too much and it was bad enough he was lacking four years of schooling knowledge already!]

[So he decided to do what he does best- cheat. And so dictated in a sweet teenage voice, will come Zelos]

Haha, hey guys and ladies- I'm here with a little proposition.

You see, I'm a transfer student from another school called Paradisa and...well, we don't have a lot of the same classes! I know, maybe you haven't heard of it- it's from pretty far away from here!

Anyway...I was wondering, since I seem so far behind, if any of you wouldn't mind helping me out with my work? It's only fourth year stuff, so it can't be too tough for a lot of you, right? Or help me figure out getting around the grounds, because I swear I've gotten lost so many times today!

And in return, if you help me out, well...I'll help you out with any Arithmancy homework! Or if that doesn't work, I can help you out with any romantic problems you might have! Seriously, I'm an expert in both fields! ♥

So what do you say? Anyone wanna help a new guy out?

[Martel blinks at her journal, not quite sure she heard that right. Because Zelos' voice sounded a lot younger than she was used to.]

I'm...fine. [Pause.] What happened to you?

[An exasperated sigh! Why do you have to mention it?]

This stupid place made me fourteen.

[Was that...a quickly stifled laugh?

Of course not.]

I'm sorry, Zelos. ...But I'm sure it can't be all bad!

Hey hey HEY! [Don't mind the voice crack there] Don't laugh!

[Martel really is trying to contain her giggles.]

Sorry, sorry. You just seem so annoyed...

Well yeah. Being fourteen was terrible the first time, why would I want to repeat it?

But you sound all grown up, are you a professor?

I can understand that. At least you remember the castle, though.

...Something like that. Apparently I'm the groundskeeper.

Yep, sure do!

Huh...so do you get your own place then?

Yes, out on the grounds. It's not too bad. It kind of reminds me of Heimdall.

[And she has mixed feelings about her hometown at best, but Zelos probably knew that.]

[Yeeep he does. and really can't blame her for it since elves wow are dickfaces]

Huh...sounds nicer than the dorms. I have to share a room with four other guys.

Do you? It probably is, with that many people in a room.

Yeah, it's even worse than rooming with people while traveling. Least there you're too tired to care about other people in your space.

[She laughs.] I know that feeling well. Though I tended to get my own room if there was enough money. Kratos and Yuan insisted, though I thought it was silly.

Seriously? Lucky- I don't think any of us ever got our own rooms.

I always thought it was a waste of gald. I honestly didn't mind sharing rooms. There's always somewhere worse to sleep than in a bed.
