Eri jogged to class, wishing she hadn't worn her sweater today. The sun was hot and she hated the feeling of sweat. She slowed down to a walk as she got to the Roku Building and hurried down the hall, fuzzy radio music coming from the speakers as she dug through her bag to see if she brought the right notebook for her class.

Nipo watched the students file in. A lot from mix back grounds some easily identifiable pure breeds- all benders.

Eri stumbled in, pushing her hair back for the umpteenth time that day. She pulled out her notebook, sitting down beside Nipo, not eager at all to sit near the firebenders or rambunctious earthbenders or ANY of Loji's friends. She leaned back in her seat then blinked, "Oh! You're the boy from earlier!"

Nipo blinked at her. Oh great. She was with those water benders He nodded. "Hello."

Eri bit her lip, "I'm sorry about those guys. They're just jerks, but they're not so bad once you get to know them." She smiled nervously at him.

Nipo shrugged. "Ah don't worry about it. I was expecting to get hassled." He looked up around the room again. He cringed when his older brother walked in. "It happens a lot." He turned and smiled at her- trying to NOT sound like a bitter a**hole. "Nipo Yasagi."
He hoped she didn't do what the last person did when he said his last name. Oh my god are you related to Yume Yasagi?! His brother being one of the star players in the athletic bending squad didn't help him in anyway.

Eri smiled, "Eri Murakami, nice to meet you." She seemed oblivious to the name and thoughts associated with it, though it tickled the back of her mind, "Have I heard your name somewhere before?"

Nipo smiled. "I don't know. You might have."

She shrugged, "Maybe I've just heard it before. Just, I don't want to seems rude or anything, but... why did you chose to come here? I mean, not that there's anything wrong with it, but, you're a non-bender. Most non-benders go to other schools."

Nipo sighed. "My first day. Believe me this wasn't my choice school. My parents were adamant though that I go here. They are alumni."

Eri frowned, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to pry or anything." She put her hands into the pockets of her dark blue sweater, "I'm sorry I'll just shut up now."

Nipo laughed. "No, you're not prying. I'd rather be having a decent conversation with a bender than having one trying to drown, burn or squish me."

Eri laughed, "We aren't all like that I promise. It's a shame, I barely have time to practice anymore between classes, work, and dragging home my drunk friends and making sure they don't die of alcohol poisoning."

He smiled. "Now there's something that's scary. A drunk bender." He leaned back in the chair as the teacher started his lecture.

Eri leaned forward, scribbling down notes in her notebook, pushing her hair out of her face again, trying to see the chalkboard as the teacher scribbled on it. She glanced at him out of the corner of her eye, "No, there is no such thing as a fun drunk bender."
