"Yeah. A question, if you don't mind. Do your siblings go here?" Rya asked. She didn't mean to intrude, but she was curious about Ruby's life.

"Thanks for telling me," Rya said with a smile. "So, meet you at the lake after school?" she said, hoping that there were dolphins in the lake.
Mod
((I think there's a roleplay going on at the lake now. Should we just wait until they're done?))
((Sure :D))
"Bye Ruby!" Rya told her as the bell rang and she there her lunch away as well. She walked to her next class, excited to meet up with Ruby.

Adairya waited impatiently in line for her food. "Gosh, it isn't even that good, people," she muttered to herself. It was plenty good, but she was just annoyed at the wait. Someone behind her murmured something to someone else and they snickered. One of them pointed at her. She rolled her eyes. Those annoying girls were at it again.
While they waited, the older girl tapped Rya's shoulder. "Hey, what's up with your hair?" Rya pursed her lips. "What's up with yours? When was the last time you took a shower?" The girl narrowed her eyes. Rya turned away from her before she could say anything and filled up a plate with food.
She went to go sit down, glancing around for an empty table. They were all filled up except for one with a girl sitting there quietly. As she walked toward the table, she noticed someone quickly slip their foot out to try and trip her. She kicked it and she heard a yelp of pain before sitting down next to the girl. "Hi! I'm Adairya, what's your name?" she said cheerfully.
"Cool, nice to meet you! Are you new to the school? It's so great, right?" Rya gushed, pausing for a moment to take a bite out of her food. Her hair rippled, showing her excitement.
"Oh, when did you get here? And wh-" Before she could finish her sentence, a kid slingshotted an apple at her and it hit her head. She clutched her tray, glowering at the food.
"I will be soon," she said, grabbing the apple and walking to the table. She glared at them. "Which one of you threw this?" They stared at her. Usually, she didn't fight back.
One boy snickered. She turned to him. "Did you-" He rolled his eyes. "Yeah, I did. And?" Rya glowered. "And, I don't like bullying." He smirked. "Guess you shouldn't hang out around me, then."
She was about to respond when she noticed Brynne walking over. She was probably scared. "Come on, Brynne, let's go," she said loudly, and walked away, but not before hitting the boy in the head with the apple. He scowled.
"They started bullying me recently. Probably cause I look so..." she tried to find a nice enough word. "Weird." She laughed a little. "I guess it is weird that I don't even fit in with misfits."
"My hair," she explained. "I'm not really cool enough for them, but I don't care, so they don't like me." She shrugged. "They're popular, but they're also mean."
She smiled. "You're catching on pretty quickly." She took a bite of her food. "Hey, what did you come here for? I mean, your magical part."
"Oh, I'm a naiad. That's why my hair is so... watery," she said with a giggle, running a hand through her hair. It sent ripples through the water. "I can also control water and heal people a little bit, but not very well."
She smiled. "Thanks. And my hair might not be stiff, but your hair doesn't look stiff at all either." Had she finally made a friend? She really hoped so. Brynne seemed nice.
"I don't use anything for my hair." She chuckled. "Sometimes it's kinda hard to sleep with a pillow so wet, but I got used to it a long time ago. Besides, I used to live underwater."
"No, they are NOT better wet," she clarified. "Trust me, they get all soggy and you wake up in the middle of the night cause you turned over and you hit the wet pillow... It's horrible."
She tilted her head. "I guess I've never really thought about it that way. I usually just wrap my hair into a bun and cover it with a towel or something." She shrugged.
She giggled. "A water hair burrito. You're right. And burritos don't even taste that bad. It doesn't always work though. Sometimes a strand or two slips out."
"I love to go swimming! Do you know how to swim? Oh, that's such a silly question. You're a siren, of course, you know how to swim. But they have such a nice lake and such cool fish and creatures there..." She sighed.
"I go at least twice a week or more. If I don't go, I get really grumpy and cranky and feel horrible. It kinda refreshes me, in a way," She explained. "I don't have time for it often though."
She laughed. "Omigosh, I need a t-shirt that says that. They totally do," she said, bumping Brynne with her arm. "I've never heard something so true." Rya giggled.
"Just this once. It's been happening for so long, I just decided to... you know, actually, fight back this time. I never want to hurt them, though. I'm sorry you had to see me like that. I'm usually harmless," she told her.
Ari walks into the cafeteria in her fox form.
