Everyone here touches each other. They hug and latch onto each other while laughing and shouting. It's so loud. Oh my god is that a flask? Did that boy just take a drink from a flask? Doesn't he know the risks of underage drinking? Oh god he just shared it with some else. What if they have a cold? Now everyone's going to have a cold.

Lucas Kowalski has never been more positive of anything in his life - this was a mistake. He shakes his inhaler before taking a click of medication into his tightening lungs. It's the only sound the tall ghost with a storm cloud of dark hair makes as he shuffles awkwardly toward the other new Azurcrest sortees, narrowly avoiding brushing against a cute older boy. God everyone here is so attractive. It's disgusting.

Standing just behind the other new Azurcrest freshmen, Lucas sighs heavily, audibly, and immediately regrets that decision, too.
