athena !
hands grip tightly on a stack of boxes as she treads forward , determined to make it to her destination without getting lost or falling . she can definitely do this , no problem ! or well , she hopes it’s no problem ; it’s a straightforward task , getting these from point a to point b . they aren’t even her boxes , but athena promised to help and that’s what she’s going to do . “ this is going better than i thought ! ” she beams to herself proudly , her voice muffled from the stack . it’s silly , admittedly , but what did she care ? “ if only i had widget with me … i could’ve saved us the trip and paperwork . ” the halls seem longer than usual as she lugs the files around — it feels like forever since she’s began , despite the fact it’s only been five minutes of walking .
though as if on some silent cue , she trips and all the boxes fall along with her , scattering papers everywhere . it’s almost comedic in the sense of how exaggerated her yells are . “ aww , man !! i was doing so well too ! ” thena huffs as tears well up in her eyes briefly , only to be forgotten and replaced by a startled expression as she sees the mess around her . “ this is exactly why i don’t like hard copies of stuff ! hmph , this is gonna be soo annoying to clean up . ” but in the midst of her crisis , she hears someone coming closer , causing her to perk up . “ hey !! hey , you ! ” she calls out at the other without even seeing them , “ do you think you can give me a hand ? please ? ”
ADMITTEDLY, KLAVIER HASN’T been doing much other than wander around campus until his next class. the music rooms are all booked out for the moment, and the last time he was in the library, ienzo hadn’t been pleased with his ( loud ) guitar playing, so it’s definitely too soon for him to go back there. the librarian is known to put things behind them, but he isn’t willing to push it. he can always study somewhere other than the library, but his heart isn’t in it today. besides, he already knows the context of all the current reading materials. sometimes he wonders whether he should have chosen a different major from law, seeing as he already knows most of the course work.
the familiar voice has him backtracking a few steps so he can see what the commotion is about. he doesn’t bother biting down his grin at the sight, but he still moves forward in an effort to help anyway, letting a laugh slip once she addresses him. ❝ i was planning on doing that anyway, fraulein cykes. ❞ he knows that the two of them have different surnames in this world they’ve found themselves in, but there is a sense of comfort in referring to athena by her proper last name. he bends down to give her some help. ❝ how do you get yourself into these messes ?? ❞
