Room 100Kaitou Shirogane Shakaku Kyo Tyson Marks Maximillian Jacob Nathan Cole The room is spacious, of reasonable size to house three students. In three of the four corners is a twin size, black framed bed, one for each student. If the student didn't bring sheets and a bedspread from home, a pair of plain white ones will be supplied. There are two drawers under each bed, to store belongings. Next to the beds are matching desk and chairs. Each corner is decorated however the student that occupies it wants, posters, frames photos, etc. To the left of the door is a walk in closet with three racks and three small dressers, one of each for each student. There are two sinks in the closet, one on each side, obviously meant for preparing for the day and for bed. There is no Radio in the room, but a large flat screen TV rests on the wall between the closet and door, with a nice, black leather couch under it. The TV is able to receive calls from other students rooms, and school wide announcements.

Shakaku was hanging in his room listening to some new songs from one of his favorite Japanese bands. His laptop sat on his lap as he leaned up against the bed's headboard with three pillows cushening his back he was also instant messaging some of his friends in Japan, along with his youngest sister Ami. Luckily that snot of a room mate wasn't here. That kid was annoying, but Shakaku was doing his best to ignore him. Not speaking to him. Not making eye contact and just being with drawn from him. He did, on the other side speak to Kaitou, often, but mostly in Japanese.*
*He was the only one in the room at the moment and he enjoyed his privacy. When he walked around he would always get bothered by some insect of a student and then he was "have" to use his power. But training with Freya was paying off, and every once in a while he would raise the temperature and keep it at that exact number while he make himself do other things. This helped him multi task with his power. He had a training session yesterday, and his legs were still hurting a little. He only whore pajama pants, with no shirt. He was in his room he could wear when he wanted to.*

Winter vacation was finally coming to a close, students slowly returning to the school before the semester started. Over the vacation, Gisli been in Florida, spending as much time as she could with her adopted family, and texting her friends from school when she found the time.
There were a lot of changes over the break. The first being the whole 'school uniform' policy. Sure, she didn't exactly like it, but most private schools had uniforms, so it was a little understandable... It made her wonder if the teachers had to follow a dress code... Then there was the whole roommates business. Well, when she heard about it, she didn't worry to much about who she would be rooming with, but rather she worried about who Shakaku would be rooming with. If the X-men were smart, Kaitou would be one. But who was the poor student forced to room with them?
Arriving back at the school, she knew what she needed to do. She was going to make sure Shakaku didn't lay a hand on his unfamiliar roommate and get himself in even more trouble. She was in such a hurry to find him that she didn't even bother unpacking her luggage, just threw the suitcases on one of the two unclaimed beds in her own dorm, and almost ran to the boys dormitory.
She wandered the halls of the boys dormitory for a few minutes, checking the name plates on each door, searching for Shakaku's name. Finally she found it. Staring at the door for a moment, she let out a relieved sigh. Kaitou's name was just about Shakaku's. The last name though she didn't recognize. Great. Well, hopefully Shakaku hadn't put this 'Max' in a case already.
She knocked on the door three times and waited.

*Winter break had been interesting. First there was training for the first little bit. then in the middle is was off to Japan to visit family, witch was in Japanese mode. but the last few days just happened to be more t raining. Big suprise! His bed was the furthest from the door. He had claimed it early on so that he could get what he wanted. He had also adjusted the room temperature to a comfortable heat for him. Witch anyone would think was quite hot, but he did consider the other room mates, and decided to make it a few degrees colder than what he was used to, mainly for Kaitou's sake. He could care less of the other one, what was his name again? Oh yea, Max.*
*He barely heard the knock on the door. But paused the video he was watching. He then went to the door and opened it. It was Gisli. Had she come hear to see him, or to see if he had killed the kid yet. She probably came to threaten him. Gosh, first Xavior, then three of the teachers, when he was walking from Xaviors office, now Gisli. Them reminding him of that rule was so annoying.*

The moments of silence after she’d knocked her long, so long that she was beginning to think he wasn’t there. She’d even been pulling her phone out of her pocket to call or text him when the door finally opened. It was Shakaku, thank God! How awkward would it be if it’d been that unknown roommate, Max, or Kaitou? She’d never even met Kaitou! She only knew about him because Shakaku had mentioned him many times before. Thinking of that, it made her remember that she should go meet him sometime…
Shakaku said absolutely nothing. Not exactly annoyed, she still scowled. “What? No how was your vacation, good to see you, or how are you?” Gisli let out an exasperated sigh, hands on her hips, head bowed slightly. After a moment she scowled yet again, this time playfully glaring up at him when she raised her head. “What about at least a hello? You can manage that right?” Her scowl broke way to a small smile.
She’d only started ‘somewhat’ teasing Shakaku right before Winter vacation started. Normally, she was far too shy to act like this around anyone, or even to just talk like this in a mirror! For some reason though, the better she knew Shakaku, the more open she started to act with him and other people!

*Shakaku stood there dumbfounded. Nothing was happening. But he was in Japanese mode, all his thought were in a different language.*
Bakamono *He muttered to himself. Meaning "stupid person" referring to himself. He then smiled at Gisli.* Good to see you Gisli. *His Japanese accent thicker than usual. His words were also choppy, taking him more time to think of the right word.*
*Moving to the side he motioned inside.* Come in. *This was partially because it was proper, but also because it would look odd to most people to see one of the schools shyest girls speaking to the bully of the school. He was sure that many people saw them together anyway, but at his room, or her room. True they were good friends, and it would hurt his image, but for some reason he wasn't worried about that. For some reason he was more worried about Gisli getting attacked by people who had grudges with him, to get back at him. He would hate that to happen to her. Even though she had a power, he knew that she didn't like to use it on people, and for some reason he wanted to protect her.*

Hearing that single word in Japanese, Gisli unknowingly raised an eyebrow. One of these days she should just learn the language so she wasn’t lost half the time. It wasn’t that he spoke to her in Japanese often, it was just sometimes he would slip, and say something in the language that wasn’t ‘exactly’ addressed to her. Only when he finally spoke to her specifically did her small smile grow a little.
“Good to see you to. How was your vacation? Anything exciting happen?” She’d forgotten to ask before vacation started what his plans had been, and she hadn’t asked when she had texted him. She was curious though. Had he gone home to Japan and spent time with his family like she had? Or had she stayed at the school like half the student body?
When he motioned her inside, moving just enough that she could enter, she smiled again, before shrugging. She’d known he’d make an offer similar to that. They didn’t spend much time in the hallways, if only because they had both their reputations at stake!
Entering the room, the first thing she did was take in everything. The room was near identical to her own, except for a few things. The furniture was all the same style, but the wood had been painted black, while the girl’s was white. It seemed all three of the boys had moved in, each corner set up however that occupant wanted. It was easy to figure out who’s was who’s. Two corners obviously were heavily influenced by Japan, but she recognized Shakaku’s style immediately. Gisli smiled even more. She should have known he’d pick the farthest corner, what with his… charming demeanor. "I think you're starting to get a little predictable."

*Shakaku waited until Gisli was in the room to answer.* I went to Japan for a little, but while I was here I trained with Freya-sempi. *Another slip, but it wasn't as big as the other one. There was less talking with Freya and more training now a days. He was less worried about events and people...namely Gisli. But she didn't have to know that.*
*Shakaku made it to his bed, moving his laptop aside making room for Gisli.* What did you do... for vacation. *Stupid English! Why did it have to have so many words for the same thing, and a order to say them, quite opposite than Japan. As most students who were learning the language would say "It's like speaking like Yoda."*
*When she mentioned that he was becoming predictable he just shrugged.* To you, and maybe Kaitou-kun. *He shrugged, at least he was trying to speak English.* So what brings you hear, you seem worried or something. *Her temperature was raised a little, like she was worried, or stressed. But he couldn't pinpoint it exactly. But he was sure that it was to tell him to not attack, or harm in any way this "Max" kid.*

Gisli didn’t know all that much about ‘Freya-sempi’, just that she was that redhaired French woman. She’d never met the woman in person, and she planned on keeping it that way. From what she’d heard about Freya… Well, she’d squash Gisli like a bug. If the rumors of the woman weren’t enough reason to think that, then seeing Shakaku after one of her beatings on him was!
“It’s called ‘Winter Vacation’ for a reason, you know. Relaxing, spending time with friends and family, just having fun. I don’t see how or where training fits in with that.” She rolled her eyes, following him to his bed and sitting down cross legged on the opposite end as him. She shrugged at his question. “Normal, and somewhat boring. Was down in Florida the entire thing, spending way to much time family bonding.” She sighed then. It wasn’t that she hated her family, but like any teenager, you liked your family much more when you didn’t have to spend 24/7 with them.
“One of these days you’ll have to introduce me to Kaitou. I’ve heard way to much about him for not knowing him.” She smiled again. She knew she’d be unusually shy towards the other teenager at first, but that was to be expected.
Only when he mentioned her being worried did she sigh. Right, she forgot how he could tell emotions somewhat by body temperature. “Not worried, exactly.” How was she supposed to put this without sounding blunt? “More like… Concerned. That you might do something stupid and get yourself roomed with an X-man.” The punishment for fighting with roommates had been clear in the updated rules. If you fought to much, or harassed them, you would be forced to house with an X-man. And they’d be watching you like a hawk! A part of her had expected him to have already done something to be roomed with an X-man....

*About to Freya* As for Relaxing...Freya-sempi doesn't believe in that word. Plus I have been improving greatly, true the sessions are hard but I'm getting stronger. *This fact could be seen just from him sitting there, he had more definde chest muscles, and his arms looked stronger.* Even if after the sessions my legs and arms are sore, that's just something I need to get used to.
*Shakaku smiled at her concern. It was cute.* Don't worry, Professor Xavier, told me personaly, along with a few teachers on the way back here. *He was getting more comfortable with English now that he was forced to speak it, he didn't, and wasn't planning to talk to his new room mate and he and Kaitou spoke Japanese most the time. He had no reason to remember English until now.* The last thing I want is to be with one of those Xmen. *If he misbehaved he would probably be put with Logan or someone tough. Or...with luck Freya would take him under her wing. Then later beat him for being so stupid. She was becoming something like a second mother, one that cared for him, but also wanted him to be able to lean on himself instead of her. But he knew that she would always be there for him.*

Gisli’s eyebrows were raised again. He really was being worked to the bone! Sure he was getting used to the training, but she remembered when she’d found him right after that first session. He couldn’t even make it to his own room! Sadly, they hadn’t been on the absolute ‘best’ of terms at the time, but she couldn’t exactly leave him there… “Well, just make sure you don’t completely exhaust yourself again. I’m pretty sure someone would see you this time.” Finally she grinned, maybe not as wide as other people would, but for her, it was just as meaningful.
It was pretty funny, before, she might have gotten overly embarrassed from him being topless, but after the events before Winter Break… Well, it took a lot more from Shakaku to embarrass her like that again!
“….” So he’d already been warned personally by others? She let out a sigh, dropping her head a little. “They beat me to it, huh..? Well that’s depressing.” She paused for a moment, lifting her head once again with a thoughtful expression. “Well, did anyone warn him?” Her eyebrows her raised again. Did the new roommate know that Shakaku would actually attack him if he was pestered enough?

*Well she didn't let that get her down, it was strange, Shakaku was annoyed with everyone warning him about not hurting this Max kid, but when Gisli did it, he didn't seem upset about it. Eh...Who knew what was going on in his head. If he didn't know half of what was happening then everyone else only knew a little.*
*Shakaku shrugged. He had no idea, he was doing his best to ignore the kid. Speaking Japanese for everything. The kid looked significantly younger than him, but that didn't mean anything.* No Idea, I wonder. Kaitou will probably be planning to prank him more than the kid could count.
*Shakaku looked down at his laptop and quickly told everyone that he would be back in a little while then closed it. He would talk about Japan and cool bands and what not, but he was afraid that he would lose Gisli in the proses, most of them had Japanese names and then he would probably go off speaking the language. And he could tell that she wasn't very comfortable with that, probably because she didn't understand. Maybe he could teacher. But still, that would be lots of effort, and there was no way to tell if she would even want to learn.*

Rolling her eyes, Gisli leaned against the wall the bed was positioned by. “Well, you guys should still be carefully. Neither of you are known for being…” She paused, trying to come up with the least insulting word possible. “Law abiding. Who knows what they might consider ‘fighting’ with you involved.” Sure, Shakaku had only been caught in his bullying once or twice, but that didn’t mean the X-men didn’t know about it. They just couldn’t catch him in the act. And unless they caught him red handed, they couldn’t do anything about it. She paused again, looking at Shakaku with an eyebrow raised again. “You probably haven’t even spoken to him, have you?” She wouldn’t be that surprised if he was completely ignoring his unfamiliar roommate.
She watched as he started typing away on his laptop, only to close it right after. Again, an eyebrow was raised. What had he been doing? “Oh…” She suddenly realized something. She’d interrupted him in whatever it was he was doing. “I can leave, if you’re busy. I don’t want to distract you or anything…” Okay that didn’t sound quite the way she wanted it to, but being as shy as she was, she didn’t exactly interact with enough people to come up with a ‘proper’ response.

Your probably right, I'll tell Kaitou to lay low for a little bit. *He smiled at Gisli, she was so cute when she worried about him. It was strange though. Why did she worry about the bully, when she would have been a potential target.* Iie. *He shook his head, oops.* I mean no, I'm doing my best to not get in trouble. The last thing I want is for some teacher to be hovering over me twenty four/ seven.*
*He was kind of shocked by Gisli's next statement, but he probably shouldn't have been. She was shy and was nice like that. But he shook his head.* I was just watching some music videos and chatting, but the people I was talking to should be going to bed anyway. *Meaning that they were in Japan* And the videos will be there later.
*He wouldn't admit this but he liked talking with Gisli. It was almost like she would see the real him, and could look past the bully and the fire self. He liked that about her. She didn't care that he beat up that kid, even though she would yell at him for it, she still stuck around.*

“You… stay out of trouble…?” Gisli’s expression went blank, as if trying to figure out just how that was possible. Try as much as she might though… She just couldn’t picture it. No way in a thousand years could Shakaku stay out of trouble! That was impossible! Her small grin turned to chuckle. And her chuckle gave way to a fit of giggles, perhaps the first fit of giggles Shakaku had ever heard from her. She wasn’t much of a laugher after all!
It took her longer then she thought it would to control her giggles, her pale cheeks turning a soft pink. “I’m…. sorry.” She could barely speak between her giggling, finally though she managed to quiet them. “Sorry, sorry.” Even though she’d managed to stop giggling, she was still grinning like a fool. “I just can’t see it. You and trouble are like two peas in a pot. You wouldn’t be you if you weren’t in trouble someway.”
Emotions reigned back in again, she took several deep breaths to try and make sure she didn’t start giggling again as she tried to respond to his other comments. “If you say so…” He must have been talking to friends from Japan. With the time difference he was right about them going to bed.
