Yuu is tired of a lot of things, and Night Raven Colleges Headmage happens to be one of those things. Now, don't get me wrong, Yuu's mother raised her to be a kind and understanding individual, but their basic manners may have to be put on pause if the Headmage decides to continue with his... 'gracious' treatment.
It's normally much easier for her to brush off any mistreatment she receives. An example being just a week-or-so ago when Ace picked a fight over the statues, that was rather easy to get over (even if they do hold it against Ace still). But there's something far more irritating about being given less than a week to clean your dorm for something you weren't consulted over.
Dire Crowley, the kind-hearted Headmage of Night Raven College, gave Yuu a weeks notice to 'change' their living arrangements, AKA: clean and fix the dorm; Ramshackle would be getting a new dormmate.
There were a few things they found infuriating about the situation. Why did this new addition get special treatment? Crowley hadn't kept any of his promises about fixing Ramshackle until it was announced that a new student would be joining the dorm. Even then Crowley has barely done anything to actually assist the magicless human. What can she gain from this? Someone else to babysit? That didn't sit right with her. She's a kid for crying out loud, shouldn't their basic needs being met be... Oh, I don't know, the norm?
To summarize they're feelings, Yuu is incredibly upset.
Obviously they don't wish to hold it against the new student, but that just seems like the easiest solution for her emotions right now.
Luckily for Yuu, she has a few IOU's from the Heartsbyul first years, a trio of mischievous ghosts, and a headstrong cat. Otherwise they may have simply walked out of the campus, there's no way one person could even begin to try fixing up this dorm.
On a positive note, Ramshackle has never looked better! Well, since it was abandoned, that is. They were feeling quite proud of themselves and the work they've done. Please take note of the past tense.
Earlier this morning they were visited by, who Ace would later inform them, was one of the Three Good Fairies. And Yuu had never felt so threatened by a presence.
For having such an endearing name, Yuu would have assumed she would carry a basket of flowers and treats, showering praises. Sadly, the only thing they have received is their quite dorm being filled with her grumbling and the sounds of cleaning supplies- which, might I add, are moving on their own. How are they even doing that?
As kind as the woman was, it felt like she was studying- no, judging every corner of the dorm. Her distaste was clear, hell, the woman went straight to organizing like she owned the place! If Yuu didn't fear her, and Grim didn't adore her, she may have gone off on the woman.
Yuu rubbed her temples, sitting curled in the furthest corner of the couch as they watched the fairy glare at every speck of dust. Since entering she's made no moves to acknowledge them or introduce herself, she can't help but wonder if she actually knows they're there.
