Talin turned when he heard footsteps and smiled at the girls, “Hello ladies, I actually need to talk with you two.” He glanced at the burgers in their hands and his smile grew, “Your burger secret is safe with me first of all.”

"That's good. And the royal chef is great, you really should give him a pay raise." Jade smirked. "What was it that you needed to talk to us about?"

Sonia tilted her head, making a motion for him to go on, though she couldn't speak, as her mouth was full of food.

“My mother is going to be spending today with you ladies and probably tomorrow too, something about planning a ball.” He waves a dismissive hand before continuing, “I was wondering if you would be alright with rescheduling our pizza day because of the planning?” Talin looked at them and waited patiently for their answers, smiling.

"Oh." Jade was a bit disappointed. "Well… It's fine. We can do it some other time. And, well, balls are actually something that I understand, for once." She smiled.

Zia bit her lip slightly, messing with her braid in one hand. She was quiet, not sure what to say or do. She had no idea who these other girls were, she just assumed they were also part of the Selection. She gave the a small, nervous smile, a faint blush still across her cheeks.

"Hey. You're new, right? Are you part of the Selection too?" Jade smiled at the new girl.

Zia looked at her, and nodded. "Yeah…I just got here. I arrived late because the summons took longer to get to me." She explained, smiling slightly.

Talin nodded and went silent once Jade had answered, trying to plan the best day to move the pizza day too while listening to the girls talk. It amazed him at how nice the girls were to each other, they were competing against one another but they seemed like they didn’t even notice and it made him happy.

"I'm Zia, by the way. And you are?" Zia asked, smiling slightly still. She was wearing hiking gear still. She wore a long sleeved shirt that stuck rather close to her skin, and pants designed to wick away water. She also had a pair of large, clunky boots on, too. She hadn't had much of a chance to change before being hustled to the jet to get to the palace.

Beatriz wandered her floor, looking for somewhere to play the piano or violin. It calmed her, and she was feeling mildly panicked that she couldn't find either. But it wasn't like she was going to ask someone where to find one. That would be stupid.

Zia looked at Talin, biting her lower lip slightly. "Uhm…you offered earlier to show me to my room…is that offer still open?" She asked, a touch shyly. "Because…i think it's a little too late to save the…rather terrible first impression I've made." She smiled slightly, letting out a small laugh. "I already ran into you, called you huge, and am wearing…" She glanced down at herself with another small laugh. "Less than ideal clothing for meeting a prince."

Zaera finished her novel and stood up. She smoothed her dress and decided now was as good as time as any to explore. As quietly as she entered, Zaera left room and walked out of the sleeping quarters. She looked around simply exploring, saying hello to anyone she ran into, which was almost no one.

Name: Cassandra Parks
Nickname(s): Cass, Cassie, Karma
Age: 19
Caste: 6
Sexuality: Bisexual
Appearance: Cassie has surprisingly glossy black hair despite all odds, not to mention stunning Egyptian blue eyes that are near impossible not to love. She has very fair skin dotted with freckles. Food is stretched pretty thin so she's very skinny for a girl her age.
Personality: She's been through hell so she's tough and very much a fighter. She's extremely sarcastic and has no problem standing up for herself even if it's smarter to just keep her mouth shut. She can be rather impulsive which can get her into trouble. But she can also be super sweet and caring since she's pretty much the mother of the house.
Background (Optional): Cassie is the oldest of 5 children and is pretty much the boss. Her father died when she was 4 years old and since then, her mother turned her love of her husband to a bottle of whiskey. Her younger brother Vincent is 17 and her younger sister Mariah is 15. However, her mother did go out and get knocked up by a man she wasn't married to so in order to not make her mother an Eight, they took on the twins that Cassie had to midwife at 6 years old as blood siblings even though they're technically stepsiblings. Luke and Reina are 13 with Luke being 4 minutes older as he loves to remind his twin sister. The only reason she entered the Selection was so that maybe she could get her family out of the hole that their mother dug them into.
Family: Her mother, her brother Vincent, her sister Mariah, and her technical stepsiblings Luke and Reina.
Other: She's a writer so she spends most of her time inside and has developed a rather wide imagination.
