Daichi chuckled under his breath along with Lance, appreciating that they both shared a similar sense of humor. He no longer felt the urge to eat, so he reached for his drink instead. As he was finishing it off in just a few gulps, a faint voice was heard from the right side of the table. If it hadn't been for his sharp hearing, he would have definitely missed the girl's statement.
"I am Rowan Delacroix. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance." Her face was finally revealed from beneath her hood, and Daichi had to admit that he wasn't expecting to see such a nice appearance under it- and a vampire, no less. The cat couldn't help but let out a whistle at the black haired female.
"Nice to meet you, Rowan. What's a pretty girl like you doing hiding under a hood?" Before the Nocturne could speak up, Lance had already taken her attention with a rather flirtatious response.
This guy's got the moves. Daichi placed his empty glass down and resumed leaning his chair back while he observed the two of them in amusement. Just to make sure she was aware of his acknowledgement without interrupting the flow of conversation, the cat gave Rowan a nod followed by a cordial smile. Suddenly, a familiar student appeared and stationed himself by Rowan, seemingly in the nick of time. He may have done so subconsciously, but he sat between Lance and Rowan as if to deter the elf from pursuing the topic and further. Kuroda furrowed his brows at Leval.
It's like he got even taller than this morning- is he seriously a human? When Leval turned to face him, the cat's expression quickly reverted to a more amiable one.
"Nice to see you on your feet. Bad luck getting targeted like that." Daichi paused for a moment, unsure if that statement was meant to be sarcastic. Probably not.
"Yeah, thanks. Pretty rough start for the first day, right?" Daichi added a short laugh to the end of his statement before his sensitive nose picked up on a very pungent odor. His eyes darted towards the unappetizing bowl of porridge. His face contorted with distaste at the sight.
"...what is that? It smells god awful." At that point, he leaned forward in his seat to get a better view of the peculiar dish.
