Leaving the office after picking up the dorm room list, Hoshiko felt a little weirded out. Everyone that had had an episode in Class 2-4 was in Rikkyo Hall. It was most likely a coincidence, but it still made her leery. Well, that, and the fact that there were quite a few boys. The teacher had said that the room assignments were up to the students, so she hoped that they'd separate themselves appropriately. It wasn't as though she could get out of it, as she was told it was compulsory. Hoshiko wasn't sure if her father would like that, what with all of the males. Locking the door to her room would be essential. Oh, what if she got a roommate?! That'd be so much fun!

Heading down to lunch, Hoshiko sat down with some of the girls she had talked to earlier, eating from a bento box she had packed and placed in her purse, a cold pack keeping it fresh. Her mind couldn't seem to focus on the topic of latest fashion, however...it was still stuck on the dorm list. If anything else happened, they'd know right away, and it'd be hard to deny that something wasn't going on. If this was the Lhermitte Effect at work, caution and treatment would need to be applied as soon as possible. Either way, the year was already shaping up to be one to remember...
Same for me, either works.
Hoshiko heaved a sigh, shaking her head and laughing. "And I told my dad that I'd be okay...you're probably right, Yamada-san. First day jitters had me thinking I was in an anime, I guess." She laughed again, though she rally couldn't shake it. Since when did a mental disease have the symptom of synchronized hallucinating with four other people? Ken said that he, too, heard the man's voice. It was weird, but the grumbling in her stomach was enough to pull her into reality and make her forget about it. Hoshiko agreed to tell Ken if anything else happened. He seemed like a nice guy, unlike the others.

Leaving the classroom, Hoshiko walked down the hall, taking out her phone. She dialed her home, where her mother thankfully was resting on her day off. Mrs. Koizumi answered the phone, and Hoshiko began to ask her about the dorm. Her mother was hesitant, as she didn't know if the dorm was co-ed or not, and the fact that she was their only daughter left. A year without her always around would be quite hard. The young lady assured, however, that she'd come home frequently, and that this would be a new experience for her, one that could help her grow. Mrs. Koizumi hung up the phone, telling Hoshiko she'd ask her father quickly, while he was on lunch. A call back latter, and Hoshiko was golden.

Smiling, she waled down to the faculty office. Quite a few people were already walking the same way, and she was excited to think about who would be her dorm-mates. The girl also hoped that this would be quick, because...well, she was starving!
Indeed, the mark of a good GM/co-GM
As the day went on, and Hoshiko grew accustomed to Class 2-4, her first day of school was shaping up to be rather nice. She talked to some other girls about the new single released by an idol group she followed, and some boys even looked her way with grins on their faces. Of course, she didn't pay them much mind. Flirting on the first day at a new school wouldn't be really tasteful, would it? During classes, she took diligent notes and asked any questions that came to mind. While she may have been seen as annoying, questions were vital learning tools, and they cleared up Hoshiko's understanding of the material. It must have worked, because that was how she got through school and life.

Lunch approached, and a bell signaled for the students to leave the classroom if they so desired. Hoshiko stood up, grabbed her purse, and started to file out near the back, but not the last, of the line. However...something changed. Suddenly, the floor was a...well, it was a mirror. And it reflected the school, but not the people. Instead of her reflection, was a black mass of...what, slime? It had piercing red eyes, and glared at her. The girl's blue eyes grew wide with terror. Oh God, did I catch that disease?! No, no, no!... Hoshiko pleaded in her mind, before a voice interrupted her.

"This...is the Hour of Reflection..."

"What?..." Hoshiko mumbled to herself. That voice sounded familiar somehow. It was a peculiar voice, one that hinted at mystery and knowing. The young woman looked up and around the room. Despite her thoughts, yes, others had to have had experienced it or something like it. The look in their eyes...Hoshiko recalled the introductions of the day and saw Ken, Kazu, Tsukiko, and Ryu left with similar looks on their faces. Kazu went ahead and left, but after everyone else had gone about their day, Ken stepped up to the front of the room, pointing out that something weird did indeed just happen.

Hoshiko thought about leaving as well, as there was a notice on the board downstairs that said there were dorms available, and she wanted to get information on them. Sure, her house was very close, but living with other people her age for a year would be fun! Bringing her mind back to the present, however, she realized that this was very unusual and deserved attention. She stepped forward, "So you all heard it, too, right? The man's voice...what the heck is an Hour of Reflection?" Hoshiko pondered, before dispelling the initial belief she had. "I doubt this is the Lhermitte Effect that's going around. It's unlikely we'd all see things at the exact same time. But you know, I could be wrong." She stated. Ken was taking a leadership role, but Hoshiko had a habit of speaking her mind in times of stress. Yes, she was terrified, but going crazy wouldn't solve anything.

Though...that didn't stop her from shaking...
*showers with mead and mutton*
Awaking with a start, Hoshiko stared out of her room's window. For some reason, her head was filled with an image of blue. It was a weird blue...maybe she dreamed about the beach or flying? "Aw, man. Wish I could remember..." Hoshiko snapped her fingers before groggily getting out of her bed, which was colored in various pastel shades, as the rest of her room. On her desk, beneath the window at the north wall, was her ring, floral headband, and her purse. After showering, and throwing on an outfit, she picked up these items and put them on her person. Today, for her first day at Tsukiyama Academy, she decided to wear a light yellow sleeveless blouse, which had a frilled bottom, and a long white, airy skirt. Her arms were covered by the white blazer which was the uniform for girls.

Coming down the stairs, she was greeted by her parents, and her mom made her a bowl of fruit for breakfast. She woke up rather early, so she had to time to talk to her parents, who encouraged her to have a great first day and to make some friends. Of course, she rarely had difficulty doing so. The news was also on, which she could see from the kitchen, in the living room. Text rolled by about something called 'The Lehrmitte Effect', and how it was some disease affecting the mental health of people in the area, especially students from the Academy. A look of worry passed over her mother and father's faces, but Hoshiko dispelled it instantly. "Don't worry about me. I'll be fine, I promise." With that, she gave her mom a hug, and her dad a kiss on the forehead, before walking towards the door. Hoshiko looked to the shrine in the living room for her sister. "Wish me luck, Aki." She gave a sullen smile before leaving, and heading towards school.

It wasn't a long way to the school, thankfully, and she was there within 10 minutes, with time to spare. The bulletin board which held classroom assignments had her at Room 2-4, with the Second-years. Hoshiko made her way, smiling, up the stairs and into the room. Everyone was getting settled in, and already chatting up a storm. A few looked her way, probably because of her bright attire, prompting the girl to smile and wave. She took a seat around the middle, next to a bookish girl with brown hair and blue glasses. Hoshiko didn't want to bother her, though, and would simply wait for introductions. When the time rolled around, and homeroom started, Hoshiko's turn eventually came up. The bright young lady stepped up to the front of the room, her white leather sandals making clacking as she walked.

Turning, a huge grin was plastered on her face. "Hi guys! I'm Koizumi, Hoshiko! I'm new to the school, so I'm looking forward to getting to know all of you guys!" She even did a little curtsy before heading back to her seat, already hearing a bit of chatter about her maybe overly-bubbly nature.
Yep, sounds peachy.

Now that I've slept, time to get Hoshiko movin'
SECOND IT IS, because friendship.
I don't know, I equate 17 with third year students xD
