There was more grumbling from her housemates... Aquila looked just in time to see Mo turn around, saying he will sleep in the corridors. She winced at that—corridors are drafty and hard, and her magic wasn’t yet up to par to make things more comfortable for herself.
And it seemed to her that more and more of her housemates were looking for alternative places to spend the night. Mika was saying something about cooking... or a hug? They hug or cook these contraptions whut? Quote:

Pres tried to hop over the turnstiles, but was blocked. Sighing she fished a knut from her pocket and pushed it into the coin slot.
She looked over, noticing a little kid who looked terribly confused. "Here," she sighed again, pushing another knut into the turnstile in front of the girl. What a seventeenth birthday this was turning out to be. But before she could ask her about that she heard someone speaking to her, and as she turned her head she spotted an upperclassman drop some a coin into the slot. A copper-ish coin.
And then the contraption clicked.
Did she see that bar move? She thought she did. Gingerly she pushed the bar with her hand—and lo and behold it swung away! Big brown eyes got even bigger. So that’s how that worked!
The young Claw moved past the turnstiles and tried to call after the girl “Thank you!” indeed she was very grateful, you can see it in her face. |
