Viola: I wasn’t expecting this turnout…. It’s both really nice and a bit overwhelming…
Grim: Hey!!! Viola! What’re you mumbling about?
Viola: Grim don’t just shout like that… I’m just not used to having a normal birthday party.
Grim: “Normal” huh? What even constitutes a normal birthday party? It’s the day you were born so whatever you do it only matters if it makes you happy right? If it were my birthday I’d want the place full of food from floor to ceiling and I’d eat all day until I passed out!
Viola: *snicker* I don’t doubt it.
Grim: Speaking of, here’s your present!
Viola: Oh! Thank— is this a large can of fancy tuna?
Grim: Yup! You should feel honored! It’s not every day The Great Grim shares his most favored of meals!
Viola: I could probably make a nice meal with this… thank you, Grim.
Grim: Of course~ Now, are you ready for your interview?
Viola: Ah right, I think so!
Grim: are you sure? You look a little nervous.
Viola: I’ll be fine… I’m just it used to this individual attention.
Grim: You can be so silly you know? It’s your birthday, you should be proud of yourself and the attention!
Grim: So, if you could pick any student from NRC to be your sibling, who would you choose?
Viola: My sibling huh? hmm… I think I would choose Riddle!
Grim: The Teapot Tyrant?! For real??
Viola: Hey, he’s gotten a lot better! And besides, he’s very reliable and helpful, and he invites us to the unbirthday parties often so it would benefit you as well.
Grim: That is true… all of those sweets Trey makes are mouthwatering!
Viola: I know… last time you cleaned off an entire table by yourself.
Grim: Mrah, can you blame a guy?!
Viola: Anyway, at this point I think Riddle and I get along well, he can be a good mentor so I think he could be a good big brother, and while he can get hotheaded at times I don’t think he’s very overwhelming… Robin would probably have fun joking around with him too.
Grim: In a good way or a teasing way?
Viola: … let’s get to the next question.
Grim: If you could join any dorm other than Ramshackle, which dorm would you choose?
Viola: Hmm… I think I’d have to choose Diasomnia.
Viola: I know a lot of people are intimidated by Diasomnia and Hornton, but out of everywhere else on campus they have been nothing but kind to us, even with Sebek’s…. Sebekiness.
Grim: That’s true… Lilia is kinda weird and Hornton is scary strong, the dorm has a kind of gloomy feel, but they’ve been pretty nice and even super helpful to us! Like during the SDC!
Viola: Exactly! I mean… you could say Ramshackle has a gloomy feel too… it’s just a different kind of gloomy. I think we could get used to it. I think I can feel safe there and learn a lot!
Grim: Hmmm Diasomnia is known for having really magically adept students… I bet if I rubbed elbows with them, I would become the most powerful mage in no time!
Viola: Haha… well, having the support certainly can’t hurt!
Grim: well… that’s the interview, only one thing left to do!
Grim: Personally I think it’s a waste of perfectly good food, but it’s a good luck tradition here at Night Raven apparently!
Viola: oh, well I suppose— G-Grim careful with that— is that a cream pie???
Grim: You betcha! Now stand still so I can aim!
Grim: Happy Birthday Viola!!!
