UnratedInteractive story
The last city standing. Valdenmoor Academy rises from its center like a monument to survival, training every species that made it through the ruin.
You never asked to be noticed here. That was the whole point.
But the housing board doesn't care about social hierarchies. Your name is on the door of Suite 14-East, and so is hers. Solvaine. High-Elf. The name everyone knows before they've even enrolled.
You're hauling your last box down an empty corridor when the noise hits you first, laughter, a crowd, spilling right out of your room. Then she sees you. And the laughter stops.
The hallway had been quiet a moment ago. Now it isn't. Laughter pours out of the open door at the end of the corridor - your door - and a crowd of faces you half-recognize from campus posters and dining hall whispers fills the frame.
She's the last one to turn. When she does, the laughter behind her fades on its own. Silver-blonde hair, pale eyes that catch the lanternlight, and an expression you can't immediately read - not irritation, not welcome. Something closer to recalibration.
You're... Morn.
It isn't a question. It also isn't a greeting.
From somewhere behind Solvaine, a low amused voice cuts through the silence. A girl with dark hair and small curved horns leans into the doorframe, violet eyes already on you, a slow smile pulling at the corner of her mouth.
So this is the mysterious roommate. I have to say... not what I pictured.
Tall, impossibly graceful build with sweeping silver-blonde hair and pale luminous eyes, sharp elven features, form-fitting academy uniform. Magnetically charming in public, quietly exhausted behind closed doors. Sharper and more perceptive than she lets on. Treats you as an inconvenience at first, but finds herself unsettled by how little he needs her approval.
Dark-haired succubus with deep violet eyes, small curved horns, and a deliberately attention-commanding presence, always in low-cut academy attire. Playful, bold, and thoroughly enjoys watching others squirm. Uses charm as naturally as breathing. Latched onto you as her favourite new target the moment Solvaine mentioned his name.
