( skye is, frankly, upsettingly adorable with his sheepish little smile. junie's megawatt smile absolutely gleams in return as his new friend (yeah, they're friends now!!) picks out a scone — which feels like an enormous victory in his quest to win over the new kid. there's a reason juniper is such a highly ranked member of the welcoming committee. )

Mmmaybe a little, but that's all my fault 'cause I was too excited so I came super early. ( and she gives a half-apologetic little shrug, smile warm as she picks out a tart for herself. ) You'll get the hang of this place.

( he looks thoughtful for a moment as he takes a bite of his pastry, surveying skye with slightly narrowed eyes. ) Have you thought about what you want to specialize in?
