After leaving Brown with Indy, she walked down the hall to knock on Raven's door. Ciel came to answer it and he smiled at his crew mate. Roseanne could see into the room and she spotted Raven, working on some stuff at his desk. She greeted the boy with cyan hair and eyes before she looked towards the captain of their expedition. He looked up from what he was doing when she started to speak. "Raven, I think you and I should call a meeting with everyone. I just saw two kids looking for rooms on our floor and I think administration added them to our mission. We should get them to introduce themselves and meet everyone."

He nodded and got up from his chair. He followed her out into the hallway and Roseanne explained to Ciel to meet them in the lounge for a team meeting. He gave a nod of his head and ran a hand through his cyan colored hair before letting out a tired yawn. Out of all the other members in the team, Ciel was the least likely to spend some time with the crew outside of their mandated duties. For one, he liked to rest on his days off. And also, he was beginning to see Scarlet and Seville as mean. He got along with Raven pretty well now, but he didn't want to interrupt or become a third wheel with whatever he and Roseanne were doing. He also got along pretty well with Mauve, but he was always trying to invite Seville along, since they were close. That left him with his only other option as Indy.

On days when he actually felt like going out during his free time, they'd borrow a court in the physical training area and they'd play a game of basketball. But for the most part he liked staying in his room to sleep. They were all pretty fit because of their physical training and their eating healthy, so he didn't need any more of that.

From there, Roseanne went back to her room to find Scarlet still reading her book on fighting techniques. Only this time she had it on the desk in the room and she stood in the middle of the room practicing the techniques she was reading about. As Roseanne pushed the door open, she almost got hit in the face by Scarlet's arm. She probably would have if it weren't for Raven who grabbed her by the arm and pulled her back just in time. 

Scarlet only laughed, finding it amusing. "I almost knocked you out, Rose. You should maybe knock before you come in next time."

Even for Scarlet, the backhanded comment wasn't that bad. Or maybe it was the fact that Roseanne was desensitized to her already. After three years of being on the same team together, most of her comments went above her head and she always forgave her room mate for the things she said. That's just her personality, she'd tell herself. Scarlet was a terrible person, but maybe Roseanne was just stupid for always forgiving her and being her friend despite everything. But Roseanne hated confrontation, and tried to engage in it as little as possible, unless she absolutely saw that she had to. Raven was the same. That was why the two of them got along so well, and it was probably the reason why Seville and Scarlet treated them so badly. 

Nonetheless, Roseanne ignored the comment and nodded at her with a small smile. "I was wondering if you could help Raven and I call a team meeting--"

"Actually--" Scarlet immediately cut her off. Then she proceeded to point out what, to her, was obvious. Though to the other two, it didn't quite make any sense. That was another thing about Scarlet, always providing negatives and always refused to cooperate. But when it came to her asking for favors, she always wanted everyone to be there for her. "As you can clearly see, I'm kinda busy. And that's not my job. That would be his job as captain." She pointed her index finger at the boy with black hair and deep black irises.
