| Haphazardly, the other had ripped out a page in his sketch book and tossed it over to his bed. Luckily, it fluttered softly to the very edge of the mattress meaning he didn't have to get up.
"Yes."
The muttered responded came as Lucius grabbed the piece of paper to examine the drawing. In all honesty, it wasn't bad, but the compliment wouldn't be sprung upon the other after all, the male was quite sure whoever ran the art department was giving enough compliments out to his or her students so his wasn't needed. On top of that he just didn't want to give the other a compliment either.
"Art major here, painting and other 'traditional' methods."
Half listening, Lucius attempted to toss the paper back onto the others bed, but instead the piece of paper fluttered a little off to the side and onto the floor. Unwilling to move from his spot, he let the paper be figuring if the only really wanted it back, then he could get up and get it himself.
"Nosy. Do you always stare at people when you think they aren't looking?"
"No, I mean I wasn't staring!" Lucius defended a bit too quickly, his checks becoming a little red due to being caught in the act, but his gaze turned to the wall as if he had been staring at it the whole time. "I'm not nosy either..." He chimed in with a slight mutter.

Sean waited patiently as the other look over his art work, beginning to work on another sketch in the meantime. He lightly sketch out a eye, then a straight, aristocratic nose that's slightly upturned. As he starts on the lips the paper comes fluttering back, though it just misses the bed. He grunts, sitting up and sliding so his feet hit the ground. He leans over, picking the picture up and looking at it for a moment. After a second he opens his bedside table, sliding it in on top of some other drawings, though they're mostly of his ex.
He actually huffed out a half-laugh at the quick protest, looking over at Lucius and smirking faintly. "You were. Do you perhaps think i'm cute? Sorry, but i'm taken." He looks at the clock, then stands up slowly and sighs. "Hey... I'm going to go grab some food off-campus before curfew. Do you want to go? I'll pay." He waits on the answer, looking unsure. He didn't usually offer for strangers to go eat with him, but he figured a meal would be a good time to get to know the other, since they'd both be in public. Less stress? He wasn't sure. Post kill~ Sorry. ^^; template by Margie @ Adoxography v2

| Arms still crossed, Lucius watched as the other gave a half-heart laugh before smirking over at him. The entire situation wasn't amusing to him at all.
"You were. Do you perhaps think i'm cute? Sorry, but i'm taken."
Just as he was about to give another protest about how he wasn't interested in someone like the blond hair jerk, the other spoke up once again.
"Hey... I'm going to go grab some food off-campus before curfew. Do you want to go? I'll pay."
It was an odd request... Of course, he could afford the male himself, but he never seen anyone offering to pay for him before. The idea wasn't entirely odd after all, his father often paid meals for new clientele, but never once had someone asked to pay for his meal. No one. Not a single person. It felt odd, but perhaps the other was attempting to gt on his good side? He did like it when people bought him stuff even food was included in this category.
"I guess you can." Lucius replied as his arms slowly uncrossed and he pulled himself off his own bed. Straightening out his outfit slightly as wrinkles had formed by the way he sat, he soon passed the other knowing he'd follow or perhaps it was a setup to lock him out of the room? Opening the door and entering the hallway he peered behind him carefully as if waiting to see if the other was trying to lock him out...

Sean couldn't help but become more amused as the new-comer obviously didn't like people getting one over him in a battle of wits. That is, if you could even call the rapport they had established a battle of wits. Really, Sean was just being a dick because he was always one. He highly doubted that that changed any time soon, either. He'd also interrupted them when they were about to speak, but that was an honest accident. If he meant to interrupt, it would have been in the middle of their sentence.
Sean stayed quiet as the other seemed to mull things over internally, actually wondering himself if they minded that he was so dressed down. Not that he dressed up much anyway, but he was wearing plain sweat pants and a plain t-shirt. It wasn't exactly his usual style, but he really didn't feel like changing. He shrugged off his doubts, since it wasn't like it was a date or anything, and it wasn't like he could afford any place posh.
So he nodded as the other agreed and stood up, following them out of the room leisurely and grabbing a coat despite the fact that it was warm outside. Since he was pale he didn't want to risk getting burnt as they walked there, even if it wasn't far. He stepped out of the room a moment after the other, blinking at him when he noticed the other was just standing there after leading him out of the room so surely. He closed the door slowly behind himself, then looked down both ends of the hallway in confusion. "... What?" Finally >.>; Sorry it took so long. template by Margie @ Adoxography v2

| In all honesty, Lucius could care less about what the other was wearing even if it clashed together and wanted to make him vomit after all, sweats did not look good on anybody, but it wasn't as if the two were going out. It was two awkward roommates who were going to get a bite to eat because the other one offered to pay. Plus, he was getting rather bored with the room anyway considering he didn't have much to do except read, paint his nails or explore the internet, but none of those options seemed like fun. Once having a coat in hand, the other followed out only to stop and stare at Lucius before speaking his mind.
"... What?"
"Nothing." Lucius replied back with as he turned on his heels and headed down the hallway. After all, he didn't need to know how the other doubted him for second... That would sound odd and would make him sound like if he cared if he was locked out of the room or not which he didn't.
"So... Where are we going?" Lucius popped the question after all, he had only been in the town for at least an hour by now so he didn't know a thing about what the city had to offer. 'Hopefully it has some good stuff.' He thought to himself dryly after all, he didn't want to be stuck in a town that didn't offer a selection of unique stores or good restaurants that were at least above three stars.

Sean decided he wasn't really bothered by whether or not the other was worried over his clothing, since it wasn't like it'd reflect badly on him anyway. So, he locked the door behind him and nodded slightly at the nothing, trailing after the other silently, looking at the walls, his feet, even the ceiling. Anything to keep from looking at the person ahead of him. Honestly, he wasn't really sure what to think of them, or if he wanted to even get that close, close enough to judge correctly.
He blinks at the question, looking up with a frown. He spoke softly, though his tone was dry. "Two choices, since i'm dirt poor and stretching it paying for you. There's a diner that's been here for years, that tastes really good... Or we can go to the new ramen shop. I haven't been there yet so i don't know how it tastes." He sighs softly, then he hesitantly moves ahead of the other and pushes the door to outside open, holding it for him and looking at him as if asking, 'Is this okay?'.
He didn't know how this stuff worked, he was guessing his roommate was a boy, but since they dressed so feminine... It was difficult to understand how he should treat the other. Or if he should even consider that. After a moment he realized he didn't even know their name. "Oh, I'm Sean." Oooh, okay. ^^; template by Margie @ Adoxography v2

| Oblivious to how the male was acting behind him, Lucius continued to his way towards the front until the other spoke up about two options they could go to. In all honesty, he hadn't been expecting much considering how his roommate dressed, but it still pained him to know that by going to either one meant food cheap enough for 'commoners' to eat... If he could have it his way, he'd prefer to at least go to a restaurant, but he wasn't paying & he highly doubted they had time for that. Plus, restaurants were more for dates anyway unless with a group to show that it's just friends having a good time.
"I mean I guess? It will be a new experience for me anyway... Either one works." Lucius halted as he spoke, his eye sight remaining up front as the other passed him and held open the front doors as they were near the entrance. Passing the other, he halted once more unsure of where to go at this point. Of course, he knew to leave campus, but he hadn't been to town yet...
"Lucius." He introduced himself in as before finally turning his gaze behind himself. It was obvious that he would need to explain to his roommate to what he was after all, he had to do that with everyone such as his parents and school officials like teachers. "Also, gender fluid means my gender never stays on one gender for long. It shifts at any given time." Lucius explained briefly after all, there really wasn't more to get about being gender fluid. He was never one fixed gender and would shift along whenever he felt a certain way. It always kept his parents on their toes.

Sean almost wished he could afford a little better, but the diner was really good home cooked food, even if it was cheap. Realistically he should be taking them to a fast food place, but if it was their first meal in town he'd rather just get them something good. So he listened to the other's reply with half an ear, then nodded.
"The diner then, i think you'll like it." He let the door fall closed behind them as he gestured to the left, towards the exit of the campus. "It's actually pretty close to here, So we won't have to go far." He muttered, walking at a moderate pace towards the opened gates. "Two blocks into town and three blocks over, it's actually frequented by students from here. It's just really good. Reminds most of being home, I guess." He said 'i guess', mainly because being home reminded him of crappy take out, sleeping on a park bench and getting into group fights. Bruises, scrapes and cuts, and occasionally a broken bone... Home wasn't anything good to him. Not like it was to most, at least.
He ducks his head at the name, repeating it softly to himself. "Lucius..." He paused a little at the words, looking up at the fluffy clouds as he thought to himself. He finally managed to absorb and understand them a moment later, one corner of his mouth quirking up. "... Okay. That's not so hard to understand. What are you feeling right now?" He asked softly, but curiously. He always felt like a boy. He knew he looked a little girly, but he really wasn't girly in the slightest. Though, he supposed he could be, given a little make up and more feminine clothes. But he wasn't really into that for himself, though he didn't see anything wrong with it. I know school is coming up, so good luck with it! I hope you still get to get on sometimes and post~! c: template by Margie @ Adoxography v2

| In all honesty, Lucius wasn't holding any expectations after all, most of his life he grew up with a certain palette and so he wasn't expecting the meal to be anything worthwild. Perhaps just a few marks above a chain restaurant, but nothing to where he would actually compliment the chef. Nor would he brother to return either so the directions were listened half heartily as Lucius kept up with his bunk mate. Although it was nice knowing that town wasn't too far from the campus which meant walking was an option if he wanted to get fresh air.
Grasping the concept without questions or a mocking tone, Lucius had been asked what he felt today. It was an obvious one today, but at the same time, he was a little bit glad the other asked as there had been a few times in his life where wearing a skirt while using male pronouns had caused confusion for his family. Without hesitant, Lucius answered without his tone wavering.
"Female." The answer was simple as there was no need to explain why because he just did. Folding his arms neatly behind his head, he glanced up at the sky for a brief moment allowing that to soak in. Though, he really didn't expect his bunk mate to react as so far he seemed to be fine or uncaring about the situation.

Sean doubted, as pampered as the other seemed, that they would care all that much for the food he ate and enjoyed on a regular basis. He would certainly never get to even try leftovers from a place like he was sure Lucius ate every day. Or a place he could eat every day if he wanted. At least if they know where to go for most of the food shops, it'd make it easier for him to pick his way around for the nicer places. Though, he could give him the walk around one day just to make sure he didn't get lost. Not that he wouldn't rather be swimming, but he remembered the horror of getting lost his first day on the town. Surprisingly, that had been when he'd stumbled across the swimming pool.
He had to wonder how often people gracefully accepted Lucius. He had to doubt it was often, they at least probably had asked awkward questions that made no sense or had nothing to do with being gender-fluid. So, when Lucius answered he nodded, sighing. "I'll just make a habit to ask every morning, and if it changes throughout the day... just tell me."
That said, he could see the shop ahead. So he went quiet and focused on his steps, avoiding brushing against anyone they passed with practiced ease. As they reached the door he opened it again, smirking faintly at Lucius and murmuring softly, mocking in a more playful manner. "Here we are, Princess. Pick a booth." Posted~ Finally. Hope school is going well. c: template by Margie @ Adoxography v2
