Tandy and Dori meet each other for the first time.

Walking down the hall with a 3DS in her hands playing the Zelda: Ocarina of Time lost in her own world until she heard the sounds of a familiar game. Pausing her game she turned the corner and saw a girl sitting down and pressing the keys. Walking over, Tandy peered over to see what she was playing. "Oh nice." The blonde said when she realized it was SWTOR. "Sorry, I heard games and I came." Holding up her own 3DS.

Dori pulled off the headphones and looked over, "Oh hey, you're one of the new girls, aren't you? Hi! I'm Dori, but I'm sure that was obvious because of the tail," she said happily.

"Yea I remember you introducing yourself over the journals. You went to Disneyland right?" Tandy said and took a seat nearby. "Yea, Tandy is my name. I like your tail." Actually looking at it for the first time since seeing Dori.

"Yep, I have a hat for you if you want it," Dori said, "And thanks, just don't pull it. It's pretty sensitive. Oh, and this is Monkey Joe," Dori said, as her friend made his way from her shoulder to her head where the slightly oversized squirrel looked at the new girl like he was sizing her up, "Don't let his tough act fool you. He's really a big baby."

Monkey Joe started squeaking down at Dori.

"What? You SO are."

"Thanks. I like hats." Tandy smiled at Dori's kind gesture of getting her a hat even if they hadn't met yet. "Oh I won't. Pulling someone's tail just seems...wrong to me." Also it was awkward and something Tandy wasn't planning on doing.

Looking at the squirrel, Tandy never been so close to one. "Aww he is super cute. Like a stuff animal...Can I pet him?" Tilting her head to the side as the squirrel speaked and Dori answered. "You can speak squirrel too?"

"Yeah, you can pet him and yep, I talk to squirrels," Doreen said happily, "He puts on a tough show but he really likes belly rubs and stuff. Like a pudgy cat."

Tandy reached over and gently gave Monkey Joe a good pet on the head. "Belly rubes huh?" Looking over at the computer. "I mostly came over here cause I saw you playing..."

"You play SWTOR?" Dori asked, "What server?"

"Infinity Gate currently. PvP. Play a smuggler. You?" Tandy asked, half wondering if she found a potential raiding mate.

"Same," Dori said, "Well, same Server. I have a Jedi Guardian though," she had gone a different route than what she did in WoW. There was something to this tanking business that was really, really fun.

“Wow. Small world. Nice, I haven’t yet played a Jedi. What is your level? If we are the around the same level we should totally group up and hit those group quest.” Tandy said, she was totally nerding out right now.

"Fifty," Dori said, "I have a lot of alts though because, OMG Bioware."

"Oh nice. Forty-Eight for me. Almost there.Let me guess, WoW fan as well?" Tandy asked with a knowing look.

"Yep," Dori said, "Gnome warlock."

"Human Warrior and I also have a Blood Elf Paladin. I can't choose which one I like more, both are pretty awesome." Tandy said and looked over at Dori. "We should totally play together...if you want."

"I think that'd be awesome!" Dori said happily.
