[ Asuna's entry into this after life was more calm than most-- There wasn't any flailing or yelling or disbelief, she simply accepted the fact that she had died back in that floating stage along with Kirito, and was (for some reason) in a school. Of course, there were countless questions, but it wasn't too urgent. In the end, there was only one thing on her mind-- Where was Kirito...? She can't help but place a hand on her chest, remembering what was said. Did he survive, since he defeated Heathcliff? Or was he here as well. ]

[ Nonetheless, she'll be busy trying to learn where everything is, and why she's in a school after dying. Maybe her adventure in SAO was really a dream? But she didn't recognize this uniform, or remember it from somewhere, so that notion wasn't considered seriously. ]

( A ) Lunch

[ If Asuna had been alive, she would've been more social than this, but she just wanted some space for a bit. Dying (is she even dead) and then being thrown into an unknown school was taking its toll on her, so acting friendly would be too much of a hassle. Now that she thinks about it, this situation was too weird, maybe she should be more alert?

You'll find her sitting down in an near empty level of the cafeteria, munching away mindlessly on whatever she managed to get. She'd probably pass for an NPC is she wasn't so isolated. ]

( B ) Skipping class

[ Ok, not really. She just doesn't know what class she had to go to. Sure, she had a key to her dorm, but other that she was clueless. The people around her weren't all that helpful either!-- What if she just went to a random class. Would they even care...? No, do things right Asuna!

Peering into the windows of countless classrooms, she'll roam the halls until somehow turning brave enough to go in one. If only those teachers didn't look so busy!! Well, not busy per se, but they didn't look all that friendly to her either. ]

[ ... Sure the cafeteria is packed today. Chihiro has no chance of working on his project with his computer with all these people who could bother him like the other day. Regardless, he needs some food to give him energy until dinner.

Laptop under his arm, and the tray with food in his other hand, there will be a "girl" dressed in a female uniform who's wandering through the area looking for a free table. The only one "she" can see, unfortunately, has one person sitting at it- but from the way she looks, so aloof, Chihiro thinks it must be an NPC. Regardless, he can't help but ask, timidly. ]

Excuse me, can I sit at this table?

[scintillated]

[ It takes a bit for her to acknowledge Chihiro, and her slightly surprised reaction is even more late. Someone bothered to approach her? She looks around for a moment, before answering. It seems everything else was full, so it'd be rude to turn her down... ]

Mm. [ A nod. ]

[superhacker]

[ Ah, she answered... maybe she's not an NPC after all. However, Chihiro won't push his luck just yet. Quietly, he takes a seat by one of the table's corners, trying to take the least amount of space possible, and placing his laptop and tray on it.

While eating, he takes a glance at her from time to time... if she's not a NPC, she must be depressed about something... then again, nobody would be a happy camper upon realizing they're dead and placed in this weird school with no way out. He would try to strike a conversation, but he doesn't want to bother her. ]
