Luna woke up much earlier than usual to get ready for their meeting at the school’s library at 7:15. She showered, got dressed, ate breakfast, and out the door.

Luna listens to her usual songs as she strolls through the September morning air. As she turns a corner, she spots a person walking not too far from her. She recognizes that signature black hoodie and dyed undercut hair.

“Avery!” she called out walking towards them. Avery didn’t stop walking. Luna realized that they were wearing their headphones. So she walked beside them and tapped their shoulder. “Hmm?” They removed their headphones “Oh, it’s you”.

“Good Morning Avery!” Luna greeted enthusiastically. They groaned at the volume of Luna’s voice. “Morning”. They continued walking to school while Luna rambled about what they will be doing at the meeting while Avery listened silently.

When they got to school, Avery excused herself to the bathroom and Luna headed to the library. When she got there, she spotted Amelia at one of the tables in the corner. Luna sat down and greeted “Good Morning Amelia!” “To you as well, Luna” they replied.

A few minutes later, Avery came back along with Iris. They all sat down and greeted each other. They waited a few minutes for Ocean.

It was now 7:15 and Ocean was nowhere to be seen. Luna spoke up. “Hey Avery, could you message Ocean since you two seem to be close?” Avery hummed in agreement and took out their phone.

“She’s doesn’t seem to be a morning person so…” They waited a few more minutes and still no sign of Ocean. They decided to start without her, remembering to take notes to give to her.

“So here’s the list of all of the MBTI personalities” Amelia brought out her notebook with the list of personalities. “Since there’s five of us I think we should divide them into four while one is assigned to the assertive and turbulent types which will include all of the personalities”.

“Doesn’t that seem kinda unfair” Avery interrupted. “Four of us get assigned four personalities while one gets assigned sixteen” Luna and Iris nodded in agreement. “Well you see handling four personalities is as hard as handling two attributes since those with four personalities assigned includes the eight attributes, while the one assigned the two attributes handles all personalities but does not cover the other eight attributes” Amelia explained.

Avery was silent for a few seconds. “Whatever, just please remind me to never argue with your decisions ever again”. Luna noticed that Iris was unusually silent. “You ok Iris? You’re not usually this quiet” “Oh I’m fine. Just not used to waking up this early” she smiled.

Amelia continued to discuss the personalities and explaining why they were assigned to each of them. Luna got distracted and started looking around the library. She glanced at the shelves near them, the other students studying at the other tables, those scanning the shelves, and then her eyes landed on the doors that lead outside. She thought about Ocean and why she would be this late considering she was the one who suggested that they meet in the morning.

Her thoughts were interrupted by Amelia. Amelia raised their voice at them but just enough to not disturb other students. “Would you all please direct your attention to the project at least once?!” The table went silent.

“Whenever we talk about the project, your attention always seems to shift to something else. I refuse to work with people who do not have the same motives as me and do not care about their final grade.” Amelia stands up and heads towards the door at the same time Ocean rushes inside the library almost bumping into each other.

A slightly disheveled Ocean asks “What happened?” “We could say the same to you” Avery replied.

The loud shrill of the bell echos through the school reminding students that class is starting.
