Compilation of references to things mentioned about the previous year at NRC! (part 2)
Trey and Cater roomed together alone in their second year (assuming that the "first-year students are 4-in-a-room, second-year students are 2-in-a-room" situation is not new and it has been so at the school since they enrolled).
Azul did not have a very successful Beanfest in his first year and vowed to get ahold of a Field Scanner in year-2, which he achieved through a combination of interviewing upperclassmen such as Leona, Vil and Malleus, and blackmailing each member of the event committee in order to learn where the various supply crates would be set.
Deuce: "You've been working on this for a whole year?!"
While Idia says that Azul "laid the groundwork" to acquire the position of Housewarden and Azul himself says that it took him "a while," we do not have any additional information (as of this post) concerning the timeline or what exactly he did.
As he was already housewarden as of the opening ceremonies in his 2nd year, it might possibly be safe to assume that that groundwork was laid in his first year (unconfirmed).
It was also during Azul's first year at NRC that he distributed various study guides in exchange for talents from his fellow students, similarly to the events of Book 3, but Crowley explains, "the commotion was much more contained" because "his study guides didn't have quite the reputation they carry this year."
It was also as a first-year student that Azul returned the talents that he'd taken in an arrangement with Crowley, where he was granted permission to launch Mostro Lounge (in exchange for 10% of his proceeds).
Floyd was blasted through the air during his orientation, by Riddle, for grabbing his hair.
Floyd says that he was on the Farmer team for Beanfest in his first year.
First-year Floyd also "nose-dived right into a bush" during flight class, which inspired him to watch videos and try new things until he was finally able to fly, adapting faster than any mermaid in history, according to Vargas.
It was also in Floyd's first year when he snuck into the gym at night to practice slam dunks, broke two hoops in an all-night practice and was punished by Crowley with a week of gym-cleaning duty.
(While removed from Jamil's dialogue on EN, in the original game he specifies that this happened the previous year.)
During their second year at NRC Vil and Rook were both on the farmer team during Beanfest, while Leona and Malleus were together on the monster team.
Rook tells a story of taking them both on during the event and losing, despite how Leona and Malleus "were engaged in some manner of quarrel" at the time.
Rook's second year is also when he gave Trey his nickname of "Chevalier des Roses."
Trey says that Rook did not call him that in their first year, but it is not specified if Rook had a different nickname for him that he changed or if he didn't have a nickname for Trey at all until Riddle enrolled.
Spring of his second year at NRC is when Rook dubbed Ruggie with his nickname of "Monsieur Dent-de-Lion" after seeing him picking dandelions to eat.
While now enrolled as a first-year student, Ortho has actually been at NRC for as long as Idia.
Ortho's first and second years were spent attending Idia's classes with him, except on test days when he would take walks on campus, chat with others, and visit with Trein.
Riddle describes Sebek as having a "well-mannered facade belies (his) supercilious nature," saying that such is true of all Diasomnia students, and that even Silver was "rather aloof" when he first enrolled.
Silver insists that he "wasn't that bad."
