——"What in the fresh hell happened here?" Rang out a voice. I looked up to find...uh oh. It's the guy I factually corrected back at the gardens, Leona himself. Next to him was hyena boy...the culprit. But the others haven't figured that out yet.
"Ah, I believe we met earlier, at the cafeteria." Ruggie smiled knowingly. I was still panting, dirtied from the probably unnecessary fight. "Hey! It's the Grilled Cheeseburglar!" Grim frowned. "Hey now, friend. Let's not get carried away with such delicious-sounding nicknames. I have a proper name befitting my manly stature. It's Ruggie Bucchi. Don't wear it out." He introduced. I'm already well aware of him.
The lion boy turned to me. "I'm going to assume this was your doing. Hey... I know you. You're the herbivores who stepped on my tail at the botanical gardens." He scowled. I stayed silent. "Oh, that's right. I thought I'd seen you somewhere. It was in the gardens, huh?" Ruggie added. I only gave him a nod.
The lion like boy examined the situation. Two of his dorm members were severely injured, and one man was left standing, almost no injuries sighted on his body. The boy scowled. "Tch. Stay outta our territory, you hear, omnivore?" He glared, looking me dead in the eyes. I nodded again, signaling for everyone to retreat.
"Finally! I'm drenched in mud, too!" Ace said, whistling away. "Yeah, I'm gettin' pretty hungry over here." Grim said, giving me a worried (and rather concerned) look. We left the dorm.
I didn't see the lion boy pick up my jacket. He didn't drop it.

——"Mmm. Didja see that...Totally wrecked 'em with my power shot..." Grim snored from next to me. I got up, I couldn't sleep, clearly. I was, A, too sore, and B, Grim's snoring was louder than a freight train. I put on my only robe, a thick, [F/C] one, and went outside into the cold air.
I snapped my fingers and a small light hovered over my index finger. I wonder when I'll be able to return home...I thought to myself, absentmindedly stepping on a twig.
snap!
"Hm? Who's that over there?" An unfamiliar voice asked. I looked to my left to find a talk figure with horns, lurking in the dark. "Only a human." I answered, looking the figure deep into their vivid green eyes, ones that almost seemed to glow in the dark.
"Well, this is a surprise. A child of man, are you?" They asked, suddenly appearing in front of me. Tiny green embers fell to the floor. An armband...a student most definitely. I observed.
"Do you live here? I was under the impression that this dorm had been abandoned for some time." They said, lightly gesturing to Ramshackle dorm. "I quite enjoy having a place where I could go to enjoy the peace of solitude."
"I'm the dorm prefect, Y/N." I introduced. "Apologies for my attire...I was unaware we had guests." I narrowed my eyes slightly. The figure was unfazed. "Y/N... An unusual name, to be sure. I am... No, never mind. I'd rather you remain unaware." That wasn't suspicious at all.
