"I'm Zander Winston." Zander formally introduced himself to the other boy just as Selene suggested that they all sit down together for breakfast. It wasn't so hard, now wasn't it? Selene smiled as the hostility between the boys appeared to have subsided.

"No harm done ma'am. Dealing with security is something I expected when a heiress like you ends up coming to a school like this." Selene had to admit she liked the way Lorenzo handled things; calm and collected, and always knowing the right thing to say at the right time, an epitome of maturity and sensibility.

"Selene-Chan!" Kyonka suddenly chimed in. "These are expensive! Can't we have something more common, like white bread and plain water?"

"Seriously Kyonka-chan, bread and plain water? With newly-made friends?" Selene huffed as she rested her hands on her hips. "No doubt I appreciate the virtue of frugality, but such miserly behavior can easily send the wrong message!" The corporate heiress lectured as she raised her left hand, wagging an admonishing index finger. True, just because one has the wealth doesn't mean one has to flaunt it, but not spending one's money where it counts can easily make one seem like a miser and subsequently ostracized from the company of others.

"That raises an important question. Why are you here? Why aren't you in some fancy mansion eating maid cooked food and living it up..? If I had the kosher life of an heiress I wouldn't bother living in dinky places like this.." Well, Selene had to admit Zander had a rather stereotypical notion of heiresses. The Briton hated these sort of generalizations, however before she could give her answer Lorenzo spoke up in her stead.

"Well, this school is a good jumping point for a lot of successful people, and they accept everyone, rich, poor, white, yellow, black, esper, etcetera. Maybe her parents decided she had enough of that fancy stuff. Besides, not saying anything bad Miss Frostfire, but your father seems to understand the Paris Hilton effect. All that richness without hard work and you end up like the aforementioned girl, living it up with just a high school GED to her name, and nothing better than that. Not implying you are or your family are like em. At least, if that interview your father gave with Forbes is any indication." Selene smiled broadly at Lorenzo's statement.

"Well said, Lorenzo," The corporate heiress replied, smiling. "I couldn't have said it better myself. And I'm impressed by your knowledge in such affairs - there aren't many your age who'd actually express interest in these worldly matters," Selene beamed at Lorenzo. In a recent interview of Stravas Frostfire on the Forbes magazine he did indeed mention the importance of hard work, of how before one gains power one must learn the virtue of perseverance, diligence and humility. One thing the Frostfire family prides itself on is that for generations they have groomed heirs and heiresses who are worthy of the Frostfire name.

"Guess who." Selene blinked as another girl with short black hair came up from behind Kyonka and placed her hands over the shorter girl's eyes. The Briton raised an eyebrow in mild surprise and interest.

"So, a friend of yours, Kyonka-chan?"
The Briton asked.

Zander eyed the guy suspiciously. He really was like a stalker. He'd read articles on her family and everything? It was starting to seem really odd. He rubbed his chin while narrowing his eyes on the boy. Perhaps he really was dangerous? "Hurm.."Zander said before turning to the girl who was now admiring the other guys' ability to know a lot of things about her like some generic brand of creepy stalker.

Well if that's what she liked in a guy he couldn't say anything. It was her life to wind up ending in an alleyway.

... That might be exaggerating a bit.

Stupid show-offy know-it-all. Zander glanced to the guy before looking away. "Well It's not like I'm accustomed to eating with others. I can just eat on my own.." He said not wanting to intrude on a meal with relative strangers. Firstly because he didn't really know how to act in such a situation. Secondly because he was worried he might feel obligated to repay her later which would dip into his junk food money.

That wasn't to say it wasn't tempting. It DID sound pretty darn good.

        Well... to be honest, Selene-Chan is right.
        But... but I have no money!
        Now I know just how Reimu-Sensei always feels.
        "Well... I am a bit cash tight, Selene-Chan." I replied softy, with my index figures pointing towards in other in front of my chest while looking at the floor, "how about white bread with peanut butter and Soy Milk?"

        What... what just happened?
        I can't see anything!
        Help... wait...
        Wait, that voice...
        "Saya-Chan!" I complained, "don't sneak up on me like that! It's rather scary!"
        "Well, Selene-Chan, this is a new friend I've just made yesterday, her name is Saya. A rather nice girl."

It seemed the boy was still not happy with his answer, and he guessed he knew why. He was different from the norm. He followed the normal world, compared to the inwardness of the students here, who sought nothing but the now, the self. Lorenzo didn't shut himself off when he got to Hyakuji. There was a world, and he knew it, even in his old world, elemancers and espers were often employed in the private and public sectors for their talent.

"Well, ma'am, Instapundit is a great gateway. So is the BBC, The Economist, Wall Street Journal, and the likes. I can't always rely on my electromancy throughout my life. It's better to diversify your interests and options for the future. I fancy to take up either economics or political science when I enroll in college, and I've always been reading those publications since, well, I could remember I guess." He said, grinning slightly. He was the weird person here, he focused on something other than his powers. It was at that moment another person joined them, and then his stomach growled.

"Hmm...breakfast would sound good right about now, I guess I should get myself into more comfortable attire." He said, heading towards his dorm room. Stopping in front of the door, he unhooked the carabiner from his belt loop, and opened the door using the appropriate key. The others didn't need to wait for long. Lorenzo basically just changed his pants to a comfortable set of khakis, switched out the formal shirt for a short sleeved plaid camp shirt. In a few minutes, he was back out, stopping to fix the laces on his boots and tie em, tucking the leftover laces into the boot. A nasty habit he supposed, but it was what he remembers.

Selene giggled as she observed Zander's reaction. He still seemed rather hostile towards Lorenzo, but at least the two of them weren't bickering now, so that was a good thing. The corporate heiress nodded as Lorenzo mentioned his sources of worldly knowledge. "You speak true, Lorenzo. If supernatural powers are all it takes to solve the world's problems, we'd have no need for political systems, economy and education." In short, the world would simply be a medieval society ruled under a magocracy, just like it had been before the days of man.

Selene giggled at Kyonka's suggestion of breakfast consisting of peanut butter on bread, with some soy bean drinks. "Don't be silly, Kyonka-chan! It'll be my treat, and consider this a meeting gift from me!" The corporate heiress looked up at the others, but her gaze rested on Zander a little longer as the other boy looked away.

"Well It's not like I'm accustomed to eating with others. I can just eat on my own.."

"Well, but where's the fun in that?" Selene asked. "I mean, there's more to eating than just to stay alive - it's a form of enjoyment, one that some have even taken to the level of considering it an art form." As she mentioned that, Selene thought of some people her parents knew, who have traveled the world in search of some of the rarest and most well-prepared culinary delights. The Briton smiled as Lorenzo returned a while later, apparently having changed out of that disheveled suit of his, now sporting a simpler but more presentable attire.

"Well, nice meeting you, Saya-san," Selene returned Saya's greeting with a bow and a friendly smile. "Well, seeing there's quite a number of us here I'll say what about a change of plans and we stop by at a cafe, free and easy, no?"

Zander had left the group in the interim just as he'd said. Being the antisocial annoying idiot he was he had gone to his dorm to work and mostly to avoid having to go to breakfast with with others. It wasn't that he particularly hated the idea it was just that he was a bit intimidated by the size of the group and the loud and somewhat obnoxious behavior of the girls present. And as such he'd left the general procession of the group.

        "Thanks, Selene-San, I will be right back."
        Selene-San is really a nice girl and good friend!
        I am really lucky to have her as my friend.
        I went back into my room and dress up a bit before joining back with Selene-San.

        Suddenly, someone called me on my phone, "Kamu, This is Zhimeng, how about Breakfast?"
        "Great, I and Selene-San are having Breakfast with a few friends, come join us."
        "Good, I am coming over to Yuki, see you soon." Was her replied.

        As I joined back with Selene-Chan, Yume-Chan also arrived, in her Hanfu.
        Must she wear it all the time outside of uniform?
        "Greetings Kamu, oh, and Selene, ma amies, how great it is to see thee here." She greeted me and Selene-San, strange, don't she usually greets Selene-San first? "Thou cannot imagine how happy I am to see thee here." Honestly, with that normal and plain tone of voice, I really can't imagine the happiness behind it, just what happened between the two of them?
        "Allow me to introduce my self, my name is Xia Zhimeng, you can call me Aurore" She greeted Lorenzo and Saya-Chan with a Chinese style bow. "And may I have the pleasure of know thy name? Kind Sir and Fair Maiden."

"Hmm." Lorenzo rubbed his chin as he watched the boy disappear. Ah well, he'll learn eventually. As for Lorenzo, passing up an opportunity to dine with some women. Hell yeah he was in. Especially when a beautiful heiress was willing to join in.

"Ah, so." He clapped his hands to hide his rumbling stomach. It seems changing attire brought a new bounce into his step. That or he was eagerly awaiting foods. "So, I'm willing to join you lovely ladies for breakfast, how about we actually go get such things. Get to know each other and the likes." He said, laughing a bit. This was going to be one hell of a morning.
