A pair of beds, desks, dressers, and shelves. These were the only pieces of furniture in the dorm room when a small girl wearing a yellow kimono. Despite the fact that she had just entered a place that could easily be mistaken for a prison cell if it wasn’t for the fact that it was on school grounds the girl had an expression of pure joy and excitment on her face. It was as if she was a child that had just walked through the entrance of an amusement park for the first time. This overly energetic ball of joy was named Manami Shimizu.
For most people the levels of excitement Manami was experiencing now would be completely absurd given the situation she was in. It was just a school dorm room after all but for this Sin Eater it was the first place she could call home in nearly two hundred years. Her species was generally not welcomed in most places due to the fact that their particular diet and appearance tended to get them associated with monsters and demons. This particularly problem was also why the girl was currently in her human form; which didn’t have her usual horns, scales, and claws.
With the same cheerfulness that she entered the room with the yellow clad girl made her way over to the bed on the left side of the room before throwing her backpack and the clothing bag she had been carrying in her right hand on top of it. Neither bag was particularly big since being a traveler meant the girl didn’t really own to many things in the first place. She didn’t even have any sheets, pillows, or blankets for her bed. It was an easy fix though she’d simply just have to go shopping and with three hundreds year under her belt with no bills to pay the Sin Eater had quite a bit of money saved up in the bank.
Hey! I could ask my roommate to go shopping with me! That could be fun!
Fun? Really? Sometimes I can’t believe how different you and I are….
Come on. Atleast try to be a bit excited. We have a place of our own now don’t we?
Sure, sure. Yet it comes with the cost of having to go to school. Honestly, what can these people even tell us that we don’t know? Why didn’t we just go buy an apartment somewhere? Would’ve be soooo much easier and probably cost us less in the long run.
Well we never really got a proper education and….well… I kinda wanted to make some friends…
There you go with the friend thing again. Manami. I’m your friend remember? We don’t need anyone else. They’ll just betray us like they always do, use us and than throw us away. People a cruel and selfish. What am I going to have to do to get this through your skull?
They can’t all be that way! Come on Leviathan, try to be a bit optimistic. I’ll make friend with my roommate and prove to you that not everyone is bad. You’ll see.
Whatever. Do what you want.
Manami’s expression had soured as she argued with the entity that was sharing her body. While Leviathan was the closest thing to a friend Manami had the daemon’s pessimistic nature was truly exhausting sometimes. Yet the had been together for so long the Sin Eater couldn’t even imagine what her life would be like without her. Despite her agitation Manami began to smile again as she began to unpack her things. She was looking forward to meeting her roommate.
