[center][i] Grand Hall [/i] [/center] Acacia had left the scene, this had caught Lance quite a bit off guard. He didn't expect this little development! Now he was alone with Ms. Coldhearted and the new guy, Arty he called himself. Well, it was certainly ballsy of the new guy to introduce himself to the group in such a manner! Even if he was only really talking to the dog and Lance. However, either way, this gave him Lance's admiration. He was very much welcomed to the little circle! "Nice to meet you Arty, the name's Lance." The accent put off Lance a little bit, but as long as he was understandable things should be alright. [i] Heh, wish I had an accent like that[/i] he thought to himself. This Arty guy seemed alright! He didn't recognize the name though, so chances are he wasn't going to be sharing dorms with him. Oh well, it looked like it would require some more waiting until Lance's dorm-mates would be revealed to him. All the while, Terra's comment made Lance feel extremely uneasy. [i] 'It's not polite to stare', Well it certainly isn't polite to steal my new pal either. You're probably why she left anyway![/i] After that little burst of inside-rage, his brain turned it down a few notches and he was almost as calm as usual. However he made sure to avoid looking at Terra. Not that this would be a challenge, however, now that Arthur was here to talk to!
