Nomi seats himself at the table, along with Randy and Howard. Sketchy still looking down at her rough sketches doesn't notice, thus making it awkward. Randy trying to play it cool, he hums slightly to get her attention. The girl with long brown hair with a blue 'T', her golden brown eyes shift upward, and then she sits straight up."Oh, um… hello." She chimed in, in a nervous voice, like she's never been in a high school before.
Nomi, taking the opportunity to speak he does."Hello, I'm Nomi, this is Randy, and he's Howard. And we welcome you to Norrisville high." Nomi sang in a kind voice with a smile.
"Thanks." she replied relaxing a bit.
Randy taking the opening to ask a normal question. "So Sketchy? What school are you from?"
"Oh um..." Shifting her eyes to the right. "H-Howard, so how did that combo work for you?" Howard opening his mouth to speak only to get interrupted by Randy.
"Ha ha so really where you from?" Randy said starting to get annoyed that she purposely tried to change the subject to not answer his question.
"Randy ~" Nomi said grinning his teeth.
"What, I'm just curious."He protested.
"She doesn't have to answer the question if she feels uncomfortable with it." The book, Nomicon'ed
"Thank you, Nomi." Sketchy said as if she was holding her breath.
"OK Sketchy where do you live in Norrisville now?"Randy jeered.
Trying to be an unspecific as possible she says "Across town." not even waiting for a response she says "I-I have to go get some um, napkins, be right back." she walks away quite fast. Nomi waits until she's far enough so she cannot hear."Randy, be patient obviously we're not close enough to her to learn sensible information!" Nomi scowls.
"How is where she comes from, sensible information?" Randy shouts.
"I don't know, but people have their reasons, just like I have my reasons!"
"Hey, if you guys are done talking about which way is the best way to talk to girls come check this out!" Howard interrupts, both boys turn their heads to see Howard with Sketch's binder.
"Howard put that back!" Nomi barks.
"No wait, just look at the doodles."
Nomi picks up the binder to look."Oh these are good."
After all three boys have examined Sketchy's artwork Randy realizes something. He pulls out a single piece of artwork with the ninja on it. It was the ninja fooling around with all these monsters causing chaos around him sketched in black and white. "What the juice, does this girl have against the ninja?!" Randy blurted .
"Not even the I have a conspiracy about that one, I mean everyone loves a ninja besides Mcfist ,and the sorcerer." Howard said staring at the work.
"Guys put everything back Sketchy is coming back!"Nomi addressed spotting the girl walking back... with no napkins? Randy and Howard shoved all the papers back in the binder and placed it back where Howard had took it.
Sketchy sits down, and takes one look at her binder and says "You guys were looking at my sketches weren't you."
"Y-yeah." Nomi said almost hesitant.
Sketchy with a voice even more hesitant "So what did you think?"
"I personally thought they were excellent, the use of shading was nice" Nomi said.
Howard spoke in "Bruceviant Art, you'll go far."
"Thanks." Sketchy waited for Randy's response, he had his arms crossed with a glare. "Um Randy?"
Randy stands up and put both hands on the table and exploded."What the juice you have against the ninja?!" he yells holding out the paper with the sketch on it, that he never put back!
"RANDY!"Nomi shouts.
"No Nomi I can got this one." Sketchy stands up from the table with her arms crossed."I think the ninja doesn't do his duty as proctor of Norrisville."
"What! What do you mean?!" Randy says
"Take today as an example, instead of dealing with the monster directly he always opens with his one-liner. And where does that get him?! Smashed into some lockers on the other side of school!"
Randy almost looked puzzled to what to say next. He sits down trying to change the subject. "Well now you guys know what I like to do, so what do you do ?" "Howard you first."
"Finally I can talk! Well I like video games, rocking out with 30 seconds to math, and making Shoobetube clips!"
"Sounds fun maybe I can join you sometime."Sketchy said with a smile. "Randy?"
"Um well Howard and I pretty much do the same thing."Randy said, as if their argument never happened.
"OK then." she replied kindly before looking at Nomi "Nomi, what do you do?"
Nomi froze for a second, everything he did involved training or being a Nomicon for the Ninja he didn't know what to say.
"Nomi?" Sketchy asked.
"Um well I...(RIIINNNGGG)well there's the bell better get to class."Nomi said getting away from the conversation.
"Oh well, see you guys around hope to do this again, with less arguing next time." she says as she picks up her binder and walks away.
The school day was pretty normal, except 7th period in gym. Where Sketchy dominated Bash at dodge ball, and of course it's just brought to the conclusion that she was a robot. But nothing else really happened.
~~~~ 3:00 pm/school ended.~~~~
Sketchy walks up to Nomi walking to parking lot as he was about to get into Ruby's car.
"Hey Nomi, thanks for sitting with me at lunch, thanks to that some people are starts to think I'm not a robot!"
"Oh… you knew about that?" he chuckled rubbing the back of his neck.
"Yeah, but I'm not offended, I would be scared of talking to a robot again too if I befriended a one that tried to kill me." She laughed with a different kind of smile.
Nomi stops remembering what she had said earlier about where she had lived."Do you have a ride across town?"
"No, I-I walk."
"Would you like a ride home? Across town is pretty far away to walk, and I would really like to continue this conversation with you." he smiled.
Sketchy takes one look at the car, and her pupils shrink, her hairs stand on end, her muscles tighten holding her binder closer to her chest."Uh no thank you!" she says in a startled voice "I really prefer walking."
"But a-" Nomi tries to speak but she's already walked away.
