More than any other emotion, limited though they were, Hazel felt a distinct and fleeting sense of loss for her carefully planned evening of relaxation. It was immediately clear that these would not be swift strangers, and nor would they be dear friends. These brief thoughts aside, the vampire was struck by how acutely the prince reminded her of several of her father’s business acquaintances. It was something in the posture, she mused, that certain people just seemed to exude. No matter. Her upbringing had prepared her for these situations, and she had no intention of losing any more of her evening than she had to.
Still keeping her patient, steady gaze trained on the smaller of the pair, a polite smile playing around her fangs, the vampire moved to her desk and walked bloodless fingers over the alphabetised files until she found the students she was looking for. She did remember these two, as she remembered the majority of those who passed under her scrutiny. The request had been an unusual one - although couples did occasionally share a living space, this was typically requested after a relationship on campus, and was rarely established prior to application. Returning to her bed, she ran her eyes over the necessary forms, before looking up to meet the gaze of the prince. It had become clear quite early on in the exchange that his partner would do little to ease the situation.
“I must say, sirs, that I cannot particularly see how the college has failed to meet your requests. It is true, as you say, that we cater to all supernatural species, and I do believe we have fulfilled that to the best of our abilities.” Hazel cocked her head, the body beneath eerily still and poised. The prince’s rank meant little to her; their upbringings were surely similar enough. “Whilst I would be willing to tackle the issue of your accommodation’s climate, as you require cooler climes, your partner has indicated that your room’s temperature controls are indeed sufficient. If you still feel this is not the case after a period of time, you may open a request which will be dealt with swiftly. The rest, to my eyes, is not a prerequisite of your species, and thus does not fall under college parameters. I’m certain that many of our students would enjoy more space if they could have it, and I’m more than certain that you are not the only student who is accustomed to a more privileged lifestyle. However, we cannot all have our every desire catered for, as this is a learning environment first and foremost. If you have difficulty conducting your education within the college’s sphere, feel free to request the information forms regarding off-campus accommodation. I will certainly be pleased to oblige you.” With a bat of her lashes, Hazel found the relevant brochure and held it out delicately. She was always pleased to oblige.
