Noone knew where Lafiel's family had immigrated from, save that it was somewhere in Eastern Europe or Central Asia. Wherever it was, it had left her the pale complexion, regal bearing, delicate features, slight, boyish frame and long, straight her that had given her the unwanted nickname Legolas.

Naturally she ignored it and plugged away at her studies, making it into the honors society by sheer bloody minded persistence. She was on her way there now (or was it tennis practice today? she would have to check her schedule) when she bumped into someone.

"Oh...I'm sorry."

"Perfectly alright!"

Zelda gave the other girl a smile - her fellow long-haired (although Zelda's was in a neat braid, today), delicately-featured honours student with a regal bearing, she couldn't help but feel like she had some common ground with her. "Are you on your way to honours?"

She would have someone to walk with other than Sheik, then (who, really, was never far behind, hands stuffed in the pockets of his skinny jeans and seemingly looking disinterested at the world).

"Ah, how are you M...I mean Zelda?" Lafiel had taken a long time to get out of the habit of not calling everyone by incomprehensible honorifics from her native tongue. Then she'd taken longer to stop using the English equivalents. So she still sometimes slipped back into that formality. She held her binder to her chest as she walked.

[redeyes_andblue]

"Very well, thank you." Zelda gave her an encouraging smile, her own binder (dark purple, with pretty drawings on it in gold gel pen) tucked under one arm.

Behind her, Sheik gave her a shrug and disappeared off to do his own thing. Zelda waved him off, then turned back to Lafiel. "And you?"

"I am charged with preparing the student memorial service for Quentin Dox, it seems. And I have to organize the field trip for the astronomy club." People seemed to look to her for leadership even as they called her stuck up, a goody two shoes.

[redeyes_andblue]

"Ahh... sounds busy." Zelda gave her a sympathetic smile. "Well, since I was voted in as president of the Historical Society, I've had several projects to organise, too - we're organising a trip to the Temple district, next. I'm sure you'll do fine!"

[not-prncss-tldr.livejournal.com]

"Oh...that sounds interesting." Lafiel had no taste for religion at all. Being from the former Communist bloc meant she simply hadn't grown up with it. But she liked the grandiose architecture and stained glass windows. "Would you like to come over to study tonight?" Which was the closest she got to having friends over.

[redeyes_andblue]

Oh, Zelda's not particularly religious (...much) either, she just likes the Temples for their historical significance.

"Certainly!" she answers, smiling at the offer, "I'll just have to let my father know not to expect me until later."

"Watch where you're going, Legolas."

Yeah, Lafiel, you just happened to run into one of the queen bitches of the school. She might be young, but she's already a junior and a child prodigy to boot. Not only does she play violin, she's also popular and pretty damn attractive for fourteen-year-old. In her spare time she pilots giant robots plays video-games and takes self-defense courses. Her athletics mostly consist of volley-ball and track.

"Don't you have some hobbits to rescue or something?"

[not-prncss-tldr.livejournal.com]

"Don't call me that." Lafiel replied haughtily. That damned American pop culture reference...It had plagued her so recently, and she'd had no time to look it up.

"Oh, I'm sorry. Prince Legolas."

Asuka smirked. Nothing like getting a rise out of the new(ish) kids.

Lafiel fumed. She hated being upstaged and outperformed and this little upstart was doing both. "You'll never get into honors with that attitude."

[redheadcarrier.livejournal.com]

"I'm sorry, I can't hear you. I'm too busy fielding all of my college offers."

Asuka waved a hand dismissively, still smirking.

[not-prncss-tldr.livejournal.com]

"I hope one takes you immediately! Then you'll be someone else's spoiled little problem!" She called back as she turned to leave.
