The Courtyard

"You are assigned to Delta dorm." The woman answers as she magics up a key in front of Ashleigh. "I do hope you can stay out of trouble for your sake while here." Having one more trouble maker wouldn't matter as long as they kept their nose clean.

Ashleigh took the key.
"We'll see miss" she said and headed towards the dorms.

Griselda snorts at the we'll see comment. If that was a challenge, then yes they would see soon enough. She magics her clipboard away and decides to go to her investigation.

"Earth," she hummed and shrugged, how was she supposed to make a choice like that, she has no clue what an earth is, nor how they compare to this place. Then again, this place looked like a palace, it looked good. Why gamble? This internal discussion expressed itself by Luna just staring a bit sheepishly at Roll, clearly not knowing what to pick.

A rather confused expression grows on Roll's lips, wondering why she was giving him the sheepish look. Maybe he should explain Earth a bit more to her, "Yes Earth. It's where I grew up. It's not very magical since its magic ebbed away, but has a lot of technology and tall buildings. It's a planet of many nations, but some of them are at war with each other." He figured it was best to tell her the truth on the world before she decided.

"Five thousand years and people still don't know how to get along... Figures," Luna said and huffed. "I'm not gonna take my chances with Earth, I think I'll stay here if I can," Luna said confidently, seeming disdained by what Roll told her about the earth.

"Then I guess with that decided, we should go see Faragonda in her office. You'd probably like her." Roll answers understanding the reasoning behind Luna's decision.

"Lead the way," Luna stated cheerfully. "I can't believe I get to be in a beautiful place like this," she marveled as she (presumably) followed Roll inside.

Roll would indeed head inside the school and up to Faragonda's office.

The trio from Solaria teleports back into the courtyard right in front of the school's gate.

"That was great," Miave says, stretching contently once they arrive back at Alfea. She felt a little over-full from pigging out at the cafe, and her hair was kind of crunchy from the salt water, but none of that mattered - she'd had a great time, and made some new friends.

"Oh yeah, here, Zaf," she said, pulling out the swimsuit she's borrowed from where she'd been keeping it tucked in her waistband. "Thanks for letting me borrow it." She'd thought about offering to have it washed first, but considering they both lived in the same dorm at the same school with the same laundry service, the gesture seemed kind of pointless.

Zaf shook her head and gestured. "Oh, I almost forgot about that," she said and chuckled softly. "If you want you can borrow it until you have your own. I don't mind," she offered. At the same time she was visibly fidgeting with the crystal Miave had procured at the beach.

"I actually have one up in the dorm, I just didn't think to bring it with us," Miave answered. "Thanks for the offer, though~" Seeing Zaf toying with the crystal, Miave watched as it glistened in her fingers. "Hows it doing?"

"Alright," Zaf replied with a tentative smile. "I'm just really wondering what makes these things tick, you know?" Zaf said wonderingly. "If I can probe the thing, I'll share my finding with you if you like. Or we could have a go at it together?" She suggested enthusiastically, ready to take a whack at it right now if given the chance.

Miave froze for a split second before quickly re-assuming her relaxed smile, though it did seem just a tiny bit less genuine. "For sure! The main crystal did some awesome stuff, I'd love to see how much of it this little baby version can do."

Zaf giggled in a giddy fashion and almost jumped on het spot. "Awesome!" she chanted and really seemed ready to get started right away. "Let's go to my room and get this thing going!" Zaf excitedly exclaimed and took off, regardless of Miave or anyone following.

"Oh, now, then? Yes, now I guess," Miave said, watching as Zaf took off. She looked back to Noko, starting to head inside as well. "Wanna come? I think it liked you."

Noko shakes head her. "I'll sit this one out Miave, but enjoy helping Zaf out with the crystal."

Soil samples. That is the reason why Tecna is on her hands and knees before the flower bed with a trowel digging up of the soil and placing it in baggie. The pink haired woman curiosity had gotten the better the previous evening, wondering what kind of effect had the Trix's and Winx's constant fighting done to local surroundings to the environment in the past almost seven years. She continues her toil as she locks up on sample to take another.

Stella entered the courtyard.
I think I have gotten everything she thought to herself.

Stella didn't have to wait long before Sonya arrived out the front doors, quickly stepping down the stairs to meet up with the blonde fairy. "You ready?" she asked, putting on a pair of sunglasses to block the bright morning sun.

"Sure am." She shows off her tote for a brief moment, "Got everything I need in here." Stella of course, magic up her weird pink sunglasses with wings jetting from the upper portions of the frams from earlier in the year, "Now we can both board the bus in style."

Sonya blinked behind her extra-dark aviators. 'In style' was...one way to describe those. Maybe they'd find something less loud in Magix.

"Let's go, then," she said, fully recovered, as she headed for the gates.

"Right behind you." Stella remarks lightly and walks through the opened gate and over to the bus stop sign. She looks at her phone to check the time and she leans out to try and see it, "Should be here anytime."

"Good timing on our part," Sonya replied, stuffing her hands in her pockets to keep them warm. She looked up at the clear sky through her glasses. While she wasn't a huge fan of bright light, she did appreciate the warmth the sun was offering today.

"Does it get this cold on Solaria? You guys have like, ten suns, or something."
