((Couldn't really fit it into the title, this thread is for Mercy and any monster[s] that would like to try two at a time.))
Katarina emerged from her class with a sigh. The course work here was actually fairly standard, nothing particularly challenging or interesting, yet. Her next class pertained to her major though, so she figured it should at least keep her attention for more than five minutes. Her mind wandered as she took a meandering pace in the general direction of her next course, going to university was not exactly how she'd pictured it thus far. So entangled in her thoughts was she that it took her a moment to realize that the halls were nearly empty now. Her eyes wandered to her wrist and gaped when she saw the time. Was it that late already?! That in mind she pulled her books up against her chest and broke into a run, the empty halls making her passage that much easier. Blindly she rounded one corner than another, taking a dash up a staircase and began to watch the room numbers about her for the right one. As she rounded a final corner her eyes caught an obstruction in her immediate path, a person no less! So caught up in her looking at the room numbers she didn't notice the person around the corner until it was too late to really avoid her. Katarina did her best though, side stepping before losing her balance and falling flat on her bum. Her forward momentum did what little was left and she slid harmlessly up to the other girl's feet, her books splayed chaotically behind her. The first words out of her mouth were, "I'm terribly sorry, I should have been watching where I was going!", as a furious blush ran across her face.
