At the moment though, she was just a really cute girl who happened to have the oddest marks on her face and was apparently looking to sit at the same place that Ami was.
"I... I'm sorry," the blue haired girl murmured, apology being the only tone in her voice. "Were you sitting here?"
The strange girl waved the question away. "No, I wasn't. I just thought that it'd be better to sit here, rather than somewhere else."
"Oh?"
"Well, look at you. You might be studying, but that puts you ahead of some of the girls that I've seen around here...."
"'Studying'? I'm not studying," Ami answered, unable to do much more than to stare at the girl and blink.
"You weren't? But I don't know of any girls who'd read up on chemistry. I mean, they don't care about what happens when reagents are put to certain chemicals."
"I just.... like this sort of thing. And aren't the properties of noble gases quite interesting? Like Helium-2?"
"You really do like this sort of thing...." the other girl murmured, her eyes narrowing slightly in understanding.

"Well... that might be a problem."
"Oh?"
"You haven't told me your name yet."
Having the grace to blush, the raven haired girl nodded a greeting. "My name is Skuld. And you are...."
"Ami Mizuno. Nice to meet you."
For a moment, Urd wanted to go and beat on her youngest sister, but couldn't figure out why. Certainly, there were plenty of 'likely' reasons, but she couldn't be sure until she'd actually see the results of what the brat had done. Of course, that would likely be soon enough, so she didn't bother pushing far on that at all.
