Cool Girl In Town [Open!]

''Yes, it is'', Samael said, nodding his head, before Odd suddenly attempted to pull him one way, then another. Samael, however, was quite hard to pull even for people quite bigger and stronger than Odd so that didn't do much except confuse Samael and throw him off balance.

''No, not everyone, but they are quite famous for it'', Samael said, trying to figure out what was going on with the girl in front of him and what it was exactly. ''Though the welcome-to-the-School-dossier seems to be biggest one of them all...'', he said, suddenly understanding, maybe what was going on. ''Is that what you want me to look over for you?'', looking at Odd he couldn't see any file or paper anywhere on her. ''What did you do with it, it has all the information you need in it'', he asked the girl, then looking up towards the Admission Office and wondering where exactly did the girl manage to leave that much paper between there and here.

''I will gladly show you the rest of the Island someday, but right now we really should find all that stuff, Odd'', he said, slightly worried. That file really did have a bunch of necessary information in it, not being quite that big for nothing.

''Yeah, I'm coming'', the young man said, finally allowing himself to be pulled, then catching his step and fastening it, so it ended up looking as if he was the one pulling Odd who was still holding onto his arm.

''We are going back towards the Admissions Office, right?'', he asked even though he had already guessed, as he didn't really wish to ask about the supposedly safe place the girl had put the file into, considering that he had already developed a vague feeling of it being something along the nearest tree or simply a patch of grass.

''That better still be there, Odd'', he said, frowning a little at how irresponsible it was, risking to lose all that information. He was aware that his new friend really lived up to her name, but still, some stuff really should be handled with care and responsibility they deserved. ''The administration is going to freak if you had lost all of it, and on your first day too!'', he said, cringing at the thought of that just a bit, having had a personal experience with losing something he really shouldn't have while he was still in high school. ''Luckily, cafeteria is this way too. I'll read it for you over lunch'', he said, all the while thinking how without Odd's student ID, which was probably still in the file as well, she could not actually get into the cafeteria.

As Samael had suspected, Odd's safe place did indeed turn out to be a stray bush near the road leading from the Office. However, he decided not to comment on it as the file had indeed been safe, and soon showed enthusiastically into his hands.

''I'll tell you a secret, Odd'', he said with a slight smile on his face, as he set on looking through the file to make sure that everything really important was there and not have fallen out while being pulled out of the bush. ''Most, if not all important stuff looks boring. That's how you know it is important'', he said, closing the file after having made sure everything the girl needed was there, including the ID she would need to get into cafeteria with him.

''Also'', he continued, closing the file and putting into his messenger bag along with his own papers, ''I'm sorry to say that even here it is common to assume everyone can read. There really is no other way to do administration but through paper'', he said, as he added or classes to himself. Considering that was so, though, the administration should have known Odd couldn't read. Something would certainly need to be done about that before she could start her classes next year. They had the whole summer in front of them though.

''Come on'', he said, then, waving his hand through the air towards the direction of the building they were looking for. ''I'll read everything for you once we get a table at the cafeteria.''

''They are not going to punish you, Odd'', Samael said hurriedly, realising that he should have paid more attention to his words still, despite already trying to be carefully about the way in which he asked and said most them. ''Or throw you out'', he continued, speaking calmly now yet again as not to alarm the pail-haired girl even more than he already did. ''You will probably have to attend additional classes'', he said, frowning lightly at his words. How much would additional classes help if Odd didn't even know how to read or write, let alone dozens of other things a person should know and be able to do in order to go to high school or college?

''Something to get you caught up to where you should be'', he continued to speak still, realising that there was no point in asking Odd any of that. It would probably only make her even more worried. ''Perhaps start a little lower in terms of what year you should be according to your age...'', he said, realising that he didn't know how old Odd was. ''Or something like that'', he finished before he said something utterly stupid or distressing to the girl. It wasn't like he knew what would happen. He had faith in the school though, and was thus sure it would take care of Odd in some way, and he already decided he would help her with her studies then. For now though, he would read the file for her, after making sure they got some food.

''There is no need to worry about it now'', he said in the end. ''I am sure everything will be alright. Though, they really should have found some other way to give this information to you if the knew you couldn't read...'' And the school definitely knew she couldn't read. They tended to know a lot more about their students then a normal school would need to, Samael imagined.
