Welcome aboard, Rosie Delaney, student #24. We are excited to set sail with you!  Has anyone told you that you look like Abigail Cowen? According to our records, you hail from Dublin, Ireland, she/her, are cis female, and are here to study Comic Art. We also see you received a spot on the SS university because of your online lottery win — we won’t tell anyone. During your first few weeks here, other students said you were + Adventurous, + Forgiving, but also - Shy. It sounds like you spend most of your time at the arcade. Upon checking your luggage, we noticed you packed a jewellery box brought from home. Hopefully your roommates don’t steal it!

+ Adventurous, Forgiving, Friendly, Loyal, Creative - Shy, Gullible, Insecure

“Hell yes! I am so down for that. Imagine all the great new music we’ll be exposed to! And when we set sail again, we can see the shows at the Shell Theater to hold us over.” Flashing a dimpled grin in the red head’s direction, Jude gave her arm a gentle squeeze. “Oh, duh! That’s a given. You’re stuck with me like glue.”

“I didn’t even think of the Shell Theatre. This is why you’re the genius of the two of us.” Rosie joked but excited to see more shows. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

          “ hey, i’ve never claimed to be a good one. ” he laughed as he too got up to follow her to the bar. “ of course i do, i’m not going to let you drink alone. that would make me terrible company. ”

Romeo walked side by side with Rosie and agreed with a nod of his head. “You know that sounds like a plan. I wanted to stay and hang out with you a bit more anyway.”  

“Let’s go then!” Rosie started in the direction of the bar. “And thanks for joining me for the concert too by the way.”

nora absolutely loved spending time with her roommates. she’d definitely gotten lucky in getting two absolutely wonderful ones, that was for sure. hearing rosie’s words, nora grinned and nodded in agreement. “ i’m down! ”

“Let’s go!” Rosie hooked her arms with Nora to get them moving. “I don’t think I’ve ever asked what your go to drink is.”

         lavender nodded his head, “i could go for a piña colada.” 

“Right?! I’ve missed shows.” Jude was still buzzing from post-show energy—the best feeling in the world, if you asked him. His bulky video camera was hanging around his neck and he couldn’t wait to review all the footage he got from the show later. With a laugh, Jude extended an arm towards Rosie. “You never have to ask if I’m down for free drinks. How could I turn down your company? Let’s go!”

“Me too! We should try to find shows at each dock!” Rosie suggested. She smiled happily and took his arm when he offered it to her. “Thanks for the company and I’ll make sure I ask you to come with me every time there are free drinks now. You’re stuck with me!”

          “ well, there’s a bar and you can treat yourself to as many shots as you’d like. ” he grinned, trying to convince her. it was always more fun when everyone participated. “ come on, it can’t be that fun just sitting and watching everyone. ”

“I could teach you a few things, that’s if you want.” He spoke looking over at her with a small smile. “No it’s no problem.” He replied as he grabbed two waits and lifted the both to his chest holding them there for a few moments. 

“Sure, why not? What did you have in mind that you could teach me?” Rosie asked as she looked around the gym. 

the young male couldn’t take his gaze off from her, not minding if he’ll stumble down a rock while heading to the love park. “you like messing with me, huh? but you can’t take it back, you’re going to explore new cities with me.” he announced happily. liam then slowed down his pace and was now at her back. taking his camera out and capturing a photo of her with their hands holding, a photo you’ll see couples posting in their social media accounts. “even with just your back in this photo, you still look stunning.” he accidentally blurted out while scanning her photo.

“I might like messing with you a little.” Rosie admitted, laughing. There wasn’t a lot of people Rosie felt comfortable being this person with but even after being apart, Liam was still one of those people she felt comfortable with. “Well, I can’t wait to explore more cities with you then.” She smiled. She let him fall behind slightly as her eyes took in the sights around them when she heard the click of his camera to bring her back, turning her head to look at him. “Thank you! I don’t think I’ve ever been told my back is stunning before.” She teased, trying to peek a look at his camera.

“you need a wingperson ?  maybe we can just say screw decorum and make it a wild night. i don’t mind being a fool in public.”

“I think I just like surprises because if I have time to really think about it, I’ll probably chicken out while if I’m put on the spot, I can just kinda... do it.” Rosie explained her view. She could be very very adventurous but usually so long as it’s not planned far in advance where she has time to overthink every scenario. “Exactly! We’d be the unlikely suspects and get away with all of our chaos!” She played along. A little smirk grew at the corner of her lips as the puck went in and let him start the rally again. “Thank you! I try to be sometimes.” She spent a little too much time trying to fake flip her hair that she noticed the puck go in to her goal. That’ll teach her to try being dramatic. “No problem!”

Duckie had to stop herself from audibly going ‘aww’ at Rosie’s answer, since Duckie was an artist herself and thought about her legacy more than someone might imagine. “I love that! I swear to god, this ship is full of amazing artists. What have you been working on this year?”

“It is! I love how many artists there are around and we’re all so different.” Rosie agreed. “Mostly comic art for my course but I’ve been trying to practice some retro comic art which is like pop art.”
