Dillon went to go get her side fixed up, but Jude had his trainer. That meant that she was alone, which she wasn't entirely sure she was comfortable with. So, instead, she went to change her shirt and then started to walk around campus.

If somebody looked, they would notice that the sun did not cast her shadow. There was just... nothing.

Rebecca passes by! She doesn't notice much at first, other than the girls' about as pale as she is, but looks back when she notices something off without recognizing what it is at first. Her gaze sweeps over the girl with a small frown, wondering what drew her attention at all, when she notices the lack of shadow.

"Huh." Intersting.

"Huh what?"

The voice was in Becca's ear, suddenly, and she'd feel a weight against her shoulder. When she looked, she would see a small little shadow with blue streaks and overly large horns clinging to her and peering at her cheek with a wide grin.

Rebecca tenses and goes still at the sudden weight at her shoulder, turning her head slightly only to stop at the side of something not normal there. Her eyes wide for a second, then, of all things, she grins.

"Just observing. You're a cute one. Got a name?"

"Cute?" His blue eyes widened, his smile growing even further. Floating slightly, he backed away from her shoulder so she could get a better look at him.

He stretched his tiny arms out.

"I'm Paw! I'm a shadow."

Admittedly, the only shadow wieleder Rebecca had come across was Aaron, but not only was he on the battlefront, but Paw really was cute. She figures it's a safe assumption that anything ASaron made wouldn't be this, nor have a voice or expression.

Paw is already winning her over, though she's cautious enough not to just go nuts. That's asking for trouble.

"Nice to meet you, Paw. I'm Rebecca." She nods as he holds out his arms, making note of his appearance and the fact that it said it was a Shadow.

"Hi, Rebecca!"

He held out a clawed hand to shake, grinning. Then, Dillon seemed to notice where he was.

"Paw! Don't... don't bother people..."

She came walking over, eyes a bit glassed over as she looked at her shadow.

"I'm sorry..."

Paw snickered, floating back over to cling to Dillon's shoulder, just as he had Rebecca's. "Don't be sorry, DeeDee."

It's probably very dumb of her to do, but Rebecca reaches out ot shake Paw's hand. She looks over when the girl she'd passed by joins them, dark eyes glazed like she wasn't completely with it. Rebecca watches as Paw goes to join the pale girl, shaking her head.

"It's fine. Paw wasn't bothering me at all."

"Seeeee? No problems. Calm down."

Dillon offered a weak smile towards Paw, then turned back to Rebecca.

"Okay," she said with a nod. "He, ah... He gets away from me, sometimes..."

"I see." That would have made much less sense before meeting the shadow herself. More metaphoric, perhaps. She glances between the two.

"Can't say that's a problem I've heard of before, but it's pretty normal here."

"Normal?" she smiled shyly at that, then glanced back towards Paw. "Hear that? You're normal, here."

Paw snickered and gave a shake of his head. "I'm not normal."

"At least he's honest." She actually chuckles! What is this madness?!

"It's a relative term," Rebecca assures the other girl with a nod. "Some people'll probably freak a little bit or be surprised, some won't."

She winced at the words "freak out," reaching a hand up to pet Paw's arm.

"I, ah... I try to keep it all under wraps, most of the time..."

"I wouldn't worry about it too much." Maybe. She glances at Paw with consideration. Somehow, he gives the impression he is quite happy to be a trouble maker, so she won't make any promises.

"So, what's your name?" She kind of reminds Rebecca of herself, not so long ago.

She looked a little startled when Rebecca asked her name.

"I'm Dillon," she murmured, uncertain.

Okay, so more wallflower and less 'leave me alone.' Rebecca tries to figure out how to handle that in her own special way.

Which is to say, trial and error. Probably with lots of error.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Rebecca." She offers a tiny polite smile.

Dillon returns that tiny smile, but it fades quickly. She looks back towards Paw again, as if he had the answers to some unspoken question.

"Nice... to meet you, Rebecca. Have you been here for a while?"

"How... is it?"

Her brows furrowed. She wasn't sure what she was asking, but at least this girl was talking to her. It made her feel less lonely with Jude not around.

Jude wandered over toward the only familiar face on campus. "Yo Dill, you doin alright?" He asked, primary focus on Dillon. He eyed Rebecca like a threat, but kept his hands firmy in his pockets, if anyone was paying attention, they'd see the blood seeping through his pants.

"Uh." Yeah, there's the Becca we know and love. "I guess that depends on how you mean it?" It was a pretty broad question.

She tenses at the sound of another new voice, distracted as she looks over to see a young man who apparently knows Dillon approach. She raises her brows when he gives her a look like she's going to turn Dillon to stone, unmoved.

Her gaze slides back to Dillon. Is everything okay, indeed.

Dillon openly jumped when Jude spoke to her, turning to look at him. Her eyes were wide, but she seemed to relax a bit.

"Jude," she said with a soft smile. "How did your... thingy go?"

Jude grinned a bit, a silly lopsided look on his harsh face. "Went fine, punched the asshole in the back of the head for ya." He turned back toward Rebecca. "Yo, I'm Jude." He offered out his left hand to shake, as his right was rather... Not up to the task at the moment. He might be an asshole, but he wasn't without manners.

Thingy? Ah. Rebecca nods and takes Jude's hand in a firm but brief shake.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Rebecca, and I'm assuming you're both new." If there is any mercy in the world, she won't be stuck playing tour guide.

Dillon startled again, then turned her attention to something behind Becca. She seemed incredibly distracted.
