[b]Ajala, Anais, Xander, Grey (cameo)[/b] Seeing that her vampiric roommate and her ghostly companion were in the middle of an argument, Ajala chose to be a silent observer and believed that they would both calm down eventually, showing no visible discomfort from sitting between two feuding students. As the chatters began to fade, the nagini finally paid attention to Headmaster Grey who was now taking to the podium for his opening speech. She didn't know how other students see the headmaster, but to her eyes, he was a figure of high regard and respect. His partially nude, masculine and buff stature spoke of his confidence and the gaze from his lion eyes reflected years of experience. Formalities aside, she couldn't help but flinch slightly when he stressed the school's stance on species discrimination. Ajala considered herself lucky for being a revered species where she came from, but still made it her personal responsibility to respect every student with equal measure. Quietly clapping as Grey finally exited the stage, she couldn't help but smile when Anais and Xander finally made up with one another, just as she hoped. The dark-haired vampire then turned to her and asked her about her plan for the day. "Seeing that I'm free for the rest of the day, perhaps I will find something to eat before going around the gardens. Would you like to join me for lunch?" she asked Anais, knowing that Xander wouldn't be able to eat anything even if he wanted to.
