Quietly slipping into her room, books already in hand and uniform already on body, Becky sat down in front of the computer in her dorm room. Reflecting on her entrance exams, she was both satisfied with her placement and yet still somewhat disappointed. Nearly everyone expected her to be placed in Obelisk Blue, and she had the marks for it; If only she'd done a little better on the Duel Examination.. But it couldn't be helped, everyone gets a bad hand once in a while.
Flipping a page of the first-year's math textbook, Becky gave a sigh "Already know it.. Don't they teach anything more.. advanced..?"
She leaned back, staring up at the ceiling as her long blonde hair fell backwards over, a lollipop sticking out of her mouth.

A knock softly rapped upon the short Ra Yellow's door, the girl on the other side biting her lip, holding her books, her messenger bag already full with notebooks..
If she didn't try and crack down on her studies, she'd be expelled.. then again.. with her luck, probably not and she'll miraculously ace the tests.. maybe?

After hearing the knock, Becky blinked, tilting her head toward the door before slowly getting up to answer it. She had barely gotten settled in from her classes, yet already seemed to have company..
Upon reaching the door, she slowly opened it, giving a soft sigh as she recognized what her visitor was here for. The pile of books and notes were a dead givaway, if not just the fact that most people who bother to talk to her are just looking for help on an assignment anyway.
Becky took a step back, welcoming her guest with a somewhat snappy comment, "Huh.. Let me guess... gotta cram for some test before you fail out?"

Saga gave an unsteady laugh, and sweatdropped "Well.. homework.. I usually never do it, yet I'm still passing with a C thus far.."
She gave another uneasy giggle, smiling pleasantly as she walked in and blinked "Hey.. your room is bigger than mine is.."

"An added perk of success." Becky retorted as she gestured for Saga to enter reluctantly, closing the door behind her.
"Now think of how well you could be doing if you did your homework as well. Maybe even you could get a nice and big room with a soft, comfy bed. That'd be nice, huh? But first thing is..."
Becky suddenly whipped out a ruler, pointing it to the stash of notes in Saga's bag as she spoke "You must get your homework done! If you do your homework, there isn't much left to study-- that's the POINT of the homework! To help you learn it! And while you're at it.. Get your stuff better organized! How could you possibly find what you're looking for in THAT bag!"

Saga glanced to her bag, and blushed a little as she realized that she basically stuffed and crammed and shoved papers itno her bag without much thought.. most papers in crumbled balls and some torn in half. She sat down upon the floor and scratched her head, simply retorting with a cute, laid-back smile and a sweatdrop "Uhm.. luck?"

After giving a short, subtle twitch, Becky blinked at the girl sat upon her floor, slowly sitting down in front of her and looking at her stuff, twitching again as she begins to help her organize it.
"Er.. so.. what's your name, now?" Becky thew in as she flattened wrinkled papers while trying to figure out what was written on others.

"Saga Aoi. We're in the same first period class.. but I'm always asleep.." she smiled shyly, rubbing the back of her head a little as Becky sifted through her chicken-stratch handwriting which seemed not even Saga could read sometimes.
Saga gave a stare to Becky's ruler and inwardly blushed "You don't.. hit people with that.. do you?"

"...Only when people speak out of turn." Becky joked, wondering to herself whether or not Saga would realise she was only kidding. "I'm Rebecca Briallen. But you can call me Becky."
After a moment of more sifting and sorting, she looked up at Saga and spoke once again, "So are you expecting me to do all of this for you, or do you plan to help?"

Saga looked back to Becky and blinked, as if she didn't hear what the short, blonde girl said "Wha? Help you..? I thought you were gonna help me..?"
She blinked in a confused manner, head tilted and eyebrows knitted together in confusion.
She blinked once more, suddenly realizing that she sounded selfish and blushed a little, gathering some of her paper from her schoolbooks and flipping through the pages to see if there were any other pieces of paper. Some pages of each book were folded at the corner, as if bookmarking the page for some reason or another.
Saga kept a wary eye on the ruler..

"You cannot expect to be helped if you are unwilling to help yourself first. I'll help you.. but I hope you don't plan on me doing all of your work. If that's the case, as soon as we have your stuff organized, please leave."
After getting that out, Becky gave a soft sigh, then turned her head back up, smiling again as she continued to sort through Saga's things, the pile getting much smaller now that two people were doing it.

Saga blinked and tilted her head as she tried reading her own handwriting, which was super-tiny so she didn't have to waste much paper for notes.. being not all that rich in the stock of school supplies.. after all.. she gambled most of her things away, save most prized posessions..
Saga finally completed her half of the orginizing pile and scratched her head "Um.. do you know what the homework was for tonight?"

"In First Period? Yeah, it was a worksheet. You do a little reading, you fill out the worksheet. Pretty straightforeward, if you ask me. Didn't you get a copy?" Becky blinked as she finished sorting the rest of the papers, combining her piles with Saga's to finish up.

"Uhm.." Saga placed her fingertip against her chin and looked up at the ceiling in thought "I.. think I did.."
She reached behind her head and blushed, scratching it some more "I guess we must've tossed it as it was probably crumbled to bits.." She sweatdropped and gave an uneasy laugh.

Becky scratched her head as she stared at Saga, trying to think of a resolution. After a moment, she reached for Saga's book and flipped it open to the day's reading.
"Here, you read this while I make you a copy of the worksheet." She quickly bolted up and to her desk, pulling out her copy of the worksheet and a scanner, hooking it up to her personal computer which sat beside the school-supplied one.
