Welcome to Gaia! ::

This is where most of the Students live when they aren't training or eating, or skipping class. ^^;

Update! I will be posting a generic floor layout for the building as well as generic single and double bedroom dorms.

Important!!!! Remember! If you want a room, PM me! And if you want to share a room with another player, be sure to talk it over with them, and with me!

Updated 8/24.

Sorry people. I've been in a sort of hibernation for the past few months, I'm back tho. So If you guys still want a room resend your requests and besure to put your Character's full name in the request along with the room number you want. Also, be sure to make sure the room is still open.

Tsubaki ran up the stairs. She hated going up all the flights every single night. Why hadn't she gotten a single on the first or second floors? She knew she would resent it later on, but now it was too late. She reached the top of the last flight of stairs and opened the door to her room. No, correction, hers and Shiraku's room. Either way, it was still too high up. She gasped for air as she entered the darkened room and flung the stack of books she had gotten at the library onto the ground. She still had a little bit of time before Setsuna's class started. She could make it if she ran. No. Tsubaki walked to her window. Sorry, her and Shiraku's window and opened it to let the soft summer breeze and some bright sunlight into the room.

She looked around. On her side of the room, Tsubaki had placed a bookshelf with several Kuchiki family heirlooms as well as books that she had brought with her and other that she had gotten from the library. She picked up the new arrivals and stuck them on the bookshelf with the others. Then she plopped down on the bed and fell asleep in the warm afternoon sunlight.

[rm 110- Yuki Shihouin] Yuki gave a content sigh as she carefuly placed her suitaces on the ground in a corner of the room then flopped onto her bed with a thud. She was happy that her first day in the academy was over and was pleased that she made contact with her zanpaktou spirit. She reached for the sheathed sword again and laid it beside her on a near by pillow. "Will I see you again and learn your name?"

Nova awoke, relieved. It took a while for him to remember the earlier events, but one glance at his zanpaktou helped him recall. Nova sat up and moved over to the side of the bed. He took the zanpaktou up by its hilt and stared into the blade.Okay, i'm ready for you this time.

Nova closed his eyes and saw the familiar light shining in his head. He once again imagined himself travelling into the light. Like before, his sword started glowing and draining his riatsu. This time, however, Nova was expecting this, and didnt drop his zanpaktou. He felt himself going inward, further inward. Nova suddenly lost all control of his body, and he fell off his bed, slumped over on the floor, making a loud thud.

Nova's eyesight gradually came into focus. Behind him was a city, full of skyscapers. The lights shone bright against the jet black night sky. Ahead of him was a seemingly endless tunnel, Almost like a subway, with horizontal neon lights lining the inside. In the far distance of the tunnel was a bright light, and as Nova assumed, the spirit of his zanpaktou.

Yuki combed her fingers through the waist lenght jet black hair that had silver highlights here and there. She carefully placed the ribbons , pins and silk cloth that kept her hair neatly in odangos near to the tatami that she slept on. She glanced for a moment at her zanpakutou which was proped up in a corner with her academy uniform and the black with sakura print kimono she came to the academy in. Pulling herself out from under the sheets she reached for the zanpakutou and helf it a few inches above her lap and looked at it in the light of a single candle she kept. I wonder...maybe I can make him come out? If he claims to be shy , maybe with just me around. He'll come out and tell me his name. With that she sat on the floor , adjusted the light cotton yukata she slept in and closed her eyes. I just have to concentrate and remember the place where my spirit was. Yuki calmed herself and tried to repicture the world of her spirit.

"You know , you look really cute when you're meditating like that."

Yuki slowly opened her eyes and found herself in the clock/tea room again."Looks like I am making progress...hello umm...Spirit?"

"Yes , that name will do for now..."

Tsubaki was really annoyed. Really. She couldn't help it. Just as she was about to learn her Zanpakutou's name, she just had to wake up. She groaned as she stood up from her bed. She hadn't realized it, but she had woken up a bit dizzy, as though she had been spinning around in circles for the last 10 minutes. She walked out of her room and into the kitchen. She was surprised how spacious and roomy the dorms were. She pulled down a box of instant tea she always made after she woke up from a meditative state. It was a Jasmine tea. Ever since she was little, she had always looked forward to tea because that was the kind of tea that her parents had made for her. She poured hot water into a kettle and stuck in the tea bag as well. Then she felt him standing outside the door. She smiled and said loudly, "Would you like some tea, too, Shi-kun?"

Tsubaki smiled. She sort of felt like a.... housewife.... or something. She couldn't help but grin at the thought. Then Shiraku had backed away suddenly. "I'm not going to bite, y'know." She finished with the tea and sat it down on the table along with two cups. She began to pour the tea, and spilled some of it on the table. "Aw, hell. Shi-kun, will you get me a towel please?" She said, continuing to pour the tea.
