I wish I'd known right from the start
That I was dancing with the dark

Upon arriving at the cafeteria you immediately searched the cafeteria for Jamil Viper, but that was like trying to spot a marked tree in an overgrown forest.
"Let's see... Jamil is a tanned guy with long hair... Ah, there he is!" Cater pointed him out. After spotting him, the five of you approached him at his table.
Just as Cater said, Jamil was a tan student with dark eyes and long dark hair in braids. Compared to the other students you've seen, his uniform was unique. Instead of a dress shirt and vest, he wore a crimson hoodie underneath his school blazer.
Seeing how this went the first time, you probably should've prevented Grim from speaking first.
But you didn't.
"Yo! You're the dude that got injured in the kitchen last night, right? Tell us 'bout it." Grim spoke to him casually. No polite introduction, no nothing.
The student known as Jamil quizzically raised a brow at him. "Huh? Who in the world are you guys?" He uttered.
The boy sitting next to him immediately jumped away from Grim as soon as he spotted him. A look of panic sprawled across his face.
"Ah~! This raccoon's the one that set my butt on fire during the Opening Ceremony!" He exclaimed fearfully as he hid behind Jamil.
That happened too? Another reason for you to regret getting teleported here after the opening ceremony. Getting to see that.
A huff escaped Riddle at Grim's phrasing. The monster's mannerisms were appalling. "Grim, it would be a good choice to have a little more tact when talking to others." He promptly scolded him before turning to the two. "I'm sorry for disturbing your meal."
The once nervous boy relaxed and even seemed entertained at the sight of the two. "Heartslabyul's Prefect and the wild raccoon from the Ceremony." He started laughing gleefully as he thought about it. "Ahahaha! What a weird combo!"
Grim pouted in frustration. Why does everyone keep calling him a raccoon?!
"I'm not a raccoon! I'm Grim! This guy here is Yuu, and this girl is (Y/N)." Grim introduced you both.
The tan boy with snow white hair directed his attention over to you. His crimson eyes sparkled at the sight of you.
"Gi-?! Oh why hello there~!" The boy smiled brightly as he took your hand. "I'm Sacarabia Dorm's Prefect Kalim. And this is my Vice Prefect, Jamil. Nice to meet ya!"
Once your hand was in his, Kalim studied your features. As if admiring an artistic piece, he took in every detail of your appearance.
"Wow~ you are as refreshing as an oasis in a desert!" Kalim complimented you. Eyes widening nervously, you shifted uncomfortably in place.
Oasis are usually fake, right? That seems about right...
You realized you had just been standing there. "U..Uh..." You forced out. This was the undesired attention you had been afraid of. You get enough unwarranted jokes like this from Cater, you didn't need any more guys messing with you.
"Y-yeah. Th-this guy's kinda carefree." Grim commented to you. Even he was kind of sick of guys bothering you.
Jamil brushed off Kalim's odd behavior. Sure, you were fairly pretty, but unlike his bemused dorm leader, he wasn't the type to hit on girls he barely knew.
