New Accomodations [Closed RP: Satou, Jasper, the raptor]

[j-whitlock.livejournal.com]

((Permission to control the raptor granted by its player. Feel free to jump in when/if ever you want, though, and if not I'll just have the dino act as you suggested. Poor Satou. Timeline-wise, this takes place before Jasper realises Alice has come back.))

Following the two horrendous slip-ups that had occurred during his Sorting, Jasper was relieved beyond measure to finally be free of the crowded, suffocating room. (He also had the creeping suspicion he'd been quasi-molested by talking headgear, but pondering that was perhaps best left for another day.)

If Edward hadn't been there to intervene...

Jasper would have to thank him for it later, when his nerves weren't quite so raw. Edward would understand.

In the meantime he had a bribe to fulfill, which was the sole reason he hadn't taken off running for the nearest castle exit yet. Disappearing into the woods for a few days was an appealing thought. Unsurprisingly, he was less keen now on sharing Satou's room—what if he lost control again?—but he fully intended to keep his word for as long as he could. As high-strung as Satou sometimes acted, Jasper didn't particularly mind his new roommate's presence. He was easy enough to keep calm, and seemed pretty agreeable in that state, so ideally it would be smooth sailing from here on out.

Slinging his bag over a shoulder, he lightly patted the raptor's snout and then turned to Satou. "Are you ready to go?"

He didn't need light to see, strictly speaking, but it made it that much easier to read. He'd keep the light off when Satou was sleeping just to be considerate. (Was this what it was like to be someone's pet vampire?)

In his search he came across a folded note he couldn't recall packing, and stared in surprise at Alice's familiar handwriting. The instructions made very little sense, but...

"How late do you suppose the library is open?" he asked as he got up, giving the now sleeping raptor a wary glance. Hopefully he wouldn't bother Satou. "Might as well—um, pick up some books to read. I'll be back in a while." Presumably after getting laid. Awesome.

"I don't know. I haven't been there - yet, anyway," he added hastily. "There don't seem to be many rules here. You can probably go whenever you want." He crossed his arms behind his head and stared at the ceiling.
