Tsuna adjusted the gray tie to his uniform frantically, his hand brushing the small emblem that was stitched to his white shirt collar. It was of a shield with a bullet in embedded in the middle and a winged clam hanging overhead with two guns crossing each other just below said clam. The entire shield was being intricately weaved around by leaves of laurel. Very detailed for something so small, but he wasn't one to judge.
He straightened his black blazer and the matching vest underneath for who-knows-how-many times already since he left his dorm.
Tsuna was nervous, that was a given. He had already missed the ceremony yesterday because he was struck by a textbook -- or so he was told -- that felt more like an anvil than anything else. (Thank god he had a high tolerance for pain from years of accumulated experience or he would have been out for far longer). He had woke up in the Infirmary during the evening with a note of apology from the culprit who did it and a file that had a layout of the school, his class schedule, and the dormitory he was to stay in.
And boy was his room, in his opinion, huge. He briefly wondered why Ultima Thule (or UT for short) assigned a single to every student on campus if it was twice the size of his own bedroom back home and then some. But then again, the academy has the land and the money to do whatever the heck they want. His uniforms were provided for him, along with daily essentials, a bed, desk, chair, thick textbooks, and - and a sleek-looking laptop for some reason. (Aren't they generous?)
Not that Tsuna would use it often -- he considered himself technologically-challenged.
His classes, as he would soon realize, was split into two sessions. The morning class session was for General Education while the afternoon session was - what the heck is the Beginner's Introductory about? It didn't specify any more than those big, bold letters compared to the list of Mathematics, Language & Literature, History, Science alternating every other day under General Education. There was something more than what was mandated in a normal school curriculum?
More so than that, Tsuna wondered why the campus had to be so big -- and why does karma hate him so much?! He had started from his dormitory, and had followed a nice simple path, but instead of the General Education building, he was bowled over by something that went -- "EXTREEEMMME!" -- and send him up a tree somewhere off his route.
"Hiii- oof!" He was stuck on a tree, was all that needed to be said about Tsuna's new dilemma.
"Oh! I'm EXTREMELY sorry about that! I EXTREMELY didn't see you!"
Ouch, his eardrums.
"I-It's fine..." Tsuna released a strained laugh while mentally correcting that he was bowled over by someone. And why was he getting knocked around lately?
The brunet tried to unstuck himself between the branches but found himself unable to. He tried a few more times before going slack in defeat. He looked to the white haired teen, who only has a white shirt un-tucked from his black slacks, and moped inwardly because the teen was staring at him like some sort of zoo animal. "Um... c-could you h-help me? I'm stuck."
"Oh, Sure!" The teen grinned and ran up to the tree that Tsuna was in. Unexpectedly, he punched the trunk, causing the entire perennial plant to shake like it was going through an earthquake.
"H-hiiiee!" came Tsuna's girly scream and a short-lasting pain later, he was sprawled on the ground with leaves in his gravity-defying brown hair.
"Are you extremely alright?" The teen from before hovered over him with an expression of worry. That was new, Tsuna hardly get people concerned over him other than his mother that it left him blank for a moment.
