    "I-I'm Letha Mare..." She tells the secretary nervously, keeping her head low as she fidgets nervously.

    [justify]IC: The secretary, who's name Korra always forgot, nodded softly with a smile. She murmured something, typing loudly out dated keyboard.
    "Yes, of course, I'll have your schedule printed in just a moment, Dear,"The secretary grinned again, but Korra just had the feeling she hadn't gotten her daily fix of coffee.
    "So, where'd you move from?"Korra grinned kindly at Letha, aiming to calm her nerves just a bit.[/justify]

    Letha glances up at Korra through her hair, but quickly downcasts her eyes again, "N-New York.." She says simply. If there'd ever been a place she'd lived to escape from her family, New York would have been it... In fact, she tried. And that's when she learned that she could be admitted into a hospital for emergency surgery as a Jane Doe. She tries to steady her breathing, though several tears begin to burn at her eyes as she remembers the wretched beating and abuse she suffered for three days straight after her Mum found her sitting outside a bus station...

    [justify]IC: Korra watched Letha, her frown returning. She didn't enjoy seeing other people upset, at least not those who hadn't done anything against her.
    "Alright, here you go. Have a good day, welcome to Bridgeport High,"The woman set a sheet of paper on the ledge of her desk, turning dismissively to the two.

    Letha nods, "Thank you..." She says gently before turning toward the door and looking at her schedule, seeing that she has art for her first period, "Can you show me the art room..?" she asks Korra nervously.

    [justify]IC: Korra nodded, she had had a feeling Letha would have art. It was a class that was never full, so new students almost always got it.
    "Yeah, we have art together."[/justify]

    Letha smiles faintly as she nods, "C-Cool.." She says softly, still keeping her head down.

    [justify]IC: Korra led Letha down the halls that had begun to taper off. Miss Allison, the art teacher, and the only teacher Korra had had who insisted being called by her first name, had returned to her room by now and was shuffling papers around as they entered. She looked up at Korra, smiling brightly.
    "Morning, Korra. And I assume this is the new student?"[/justify]

    Letha swallows hard as she lowers her head a bit more, "Y-Yes, Ma'am..."

    [align=center][fancypost bgcolor= transparent; border: border-right: 15px double white;background:url(http://s5.favim.com/orig/69/fo…m.com-636592.jpg);height: 380px; width: 290px;]

    [justify]IC: She frowned lightly, but then resumed her original expression.
    "Alright, just take a seat wherever you want. Right now, we're really just sketching, so you haven't missed anything."
    Korra had backed up a few paces to examine a colorful poster on one of the many storage units of the room. She glanced at Letha, before dropping into her seat. She wanted the girl to relax a bit, but also didn't want to push her boundaries, so Korra mindlessly began to drag her pencil over a sheet of paper. As she expected, her normal table mates hadn't arrived yet, which was probably due to the fact that Miss Allison never marked anyone late. This was Korra's nap class, where she'd sleep if she hadn't gotten enough rest the previous night. Today was not one of those days. [/justify]

    Letha walks to the back of the room and sits at an empty table. She pulls out a sheet of paper and her pencil then begins to draw. Before long she's got a decently detailed picture of a young girl gazing outside a darkened window. Satisfied enough with it, she sets the sketch aside and pulls out another sheet of paper.

    [justify]IC: Korra never was an artist, so she just ended up drawing a thin line until she got bored. Her friends filed in, Paige and Michelle. Korra didn't pay much attention to whatever they were talking about, she never did, it was always some stupid drama she didn't care about. Looking around the room, her eyes danced over Letha. After a moment consideration, she sighed and turned around,
    "Letha, do you wanna come sit over here with me?" [/justify]

    Letha glances at Korra's friends and then lowers her head again. She swallows hard as she shakes her head a bit, "N-No, it's alright..." She says, not wanting to disrupt their friendly conversations.

    [justify]IC: "Are you sure?"Korra looked around, the others seemed enveloped in whatever they were doing.
    "It's no issue."[/justify]

    Thinking that Korra was simply being nice with her offer, but didn't really want her there, Letha nods, "I-I'm sure.."

    [align=center][fancypost bgcolor= transparent; border: border-right: 15px double white;background:url(http://s5.favim.com/orig/69/fo…m.com-636592.jpg);height: 380px; width: 290px;]

    [justify]IC: Korra nodded, looking back to her paper. She spun her wrist, just brushing the paper with the graphite. She bit the inside of her cheek, frowning again. She cracked her knuckles, trying up her hair with a huff of air. Gathering what she had, Korra walked over to Letha's table, smirking softly.
    "I guess I'll just come over here then."She wondered what Letha thought of her, if she was too clingy or whatever. She wasn't trying to be, Korra just like seeing people sitting alone. [/justify]

    Letha smiles faintly, though she tries to hide it by lowering her head, "O-Okay.." She says softly. In all honesty, she was more than happy for Korra to come sit with her... Something about this girl made Letha happy, an emotion she hadn't felt in forever..

    [justify]IC: Korra catches a glimpse at Letha's drawing, raising an eyebrow. She was good, there was no doubt of that.
    "So, tell me about yourself, I guess."Korra had no idea what to say, or what to do, she just like Letha. She seemed nice, overly cautious, but Korra figured she couldn't do anything about that, yet.[/justify]

    Letha shrugs a bit as she puts her sleeve-clad hands in her lap, "What.. Do you want to know..?" She asks softly. She had plenty of answers from over the years that she could use to answer any question, so she wasn't too worried.

    [justify]IC: "Alright."Korra put her pencil down, pushing the paper to the side. Most questions she had were random, 'what's your middle name' or 'what's you favorite color'.
    "Uh, I don't know. What do you like to do?"[/justify]
