OOC:Anyone is invited to post if they want to say hi to the new students, or whatever. Please join in, just not as the roommate. That position is already taken.
Anthony Toselli was nervous. Who wouldn't be? He was going to meet new people, new friends, he hoped, and a new life. The past few days were a blur. He had woken up late one afternoon when his parents told him to pack up to move out. It was a surprise, considering he had been stuck at some crappy apartment for months ever since his home had burned down. No... that's not right. Since HE burned down his home. While not directly his fault, he felt like he set the fire himself. Ever since, his family was moved to temporary housing while insurance was sorted out. Tony, himself, was not allowed to go to college in the Fall as he should have. They were worried that something strange would happen again, and they would be held accountable if it harmed another student, or the college as a whole. His parents told him that they had found a place that dealt with strange things like the portals Tony was dealing with. A school where he would be spending an indefinite amount of time there.
Tony wasn't all that pleased with the arrangement, but it was better than rotting away at home. It felt like getting sent off to prison. When he actually arrived at the Starlight Academy, the architecture and landscape assuaged his concerns a bit. It seemed oddly... normal. Kinda like how he expected college to be. There were some younger kids hanging around, but they seemed to derp around by themselves. However, the occasional strange occurrence reminded him that this was not a normal academy; someone flying by, or clearly not human.
He had been directed to the admissions office, where he spent a few painful hours filling out paperwork and talking with the staff. Armed with a map of the campus, his class schedule, and a room number that is supposed to be his new living arrangement, Tony headed for the dorm. He only had one duffel bag of clothes, the staff had assured him he could get more at a later date. It's not like he cared all that much for variety in fashion.
The dorm itself seemed nice enough. A few people were hanging out in the lounge, watching TV and playing games. He passed them up and went down the halls to the room he was directed to. He turned the handle, only to realize it was locked, and the staff forgot to give him a key!
"Ugh, you've gotta be kidding me." He muttered to himself. He tried the door again, shaking it violently, in case it was just stuck. He was just about to leave and return to the admissions office when he heard the lock click, and the door swing open.
