With this new discovery of his, Orion decided to try his best to make positive it really was not a fluke.
That he did in the form of floating around the area Roxas sat during lectures. Poking at the other males pencil whenever he took a break from notes; sometimes knocking the pencil to the floor. He even straight up sat in front of the other male to obstruct his line of sight. True, ghosts were see through, but when they sat right in front of you and stare right into your eyes it is anything but easy to ignore them.
Eventually Orion pushed Roxas to the edge, causing him to almost scream mid lecture.
If he did, he would get questionable looks so he tried to avoid that. Instead, he shot a death glare to his unwanted companion and lowered his voice. “Scram. I can see you and yes, you are annoying. If you want to talk so badly, wait until later.” His tone sent otherworldly chills down Orion's back to which he pouted and nodded. Though his pouting didn't last long at all for he quickly flew off to return to watching his beloved in another lecture hall. This way he could also be sure to not let Roxas escape.
Since Albel was unable to see or sense the ghost male, Orion took it upon himself to do as he usually did. He looked over the larger man's shoulder in attempts to read and take in the notes...though everything went right through him. Ghosts had no need to cram in all this knowledge. So when he was bored of that, Orion busied himself with just taking in the serious posture and overall feeling of Albel.
Perhaps the biggest downfall to being undead was the boredom.
Groaning in frustration Orion laid atop the tabletop on his back, eyes closed and arms folded under his head as a makeshift pillow.
Unbeknownst to himself, he eventually fell asleep and was only awoken to the sound of the professor loudly proclaiming class over. It caught him off guard so much, his concentration broke and his body fell through the table. Groaning, he sat up, head poking through the table and towards where Albel ran to meet up with Roxas at the door. Roxas noticed the floating head, rubbing a palm against his head in frustration.
“Albel, I'll have to cancel our plans. I have some...business to take care of.” Albel gave a understanding nod and gave his buddy a goodbye wave while rushing to catch up with another group of friends.
Once the lecture hall was empty of everyone else, Roxas turned his gaze to the man in the table. “You.” Orion flinched and pointed again to himself to be absolutely certain. “Yes you. Do you see anyone else here? If I knew better I would ignore you until you left me alone...but from what I can tell you're here for more than me.” Orion was never even given a chance to respond as Roxas continued on. “You can come with me quietly to my place and explain yourself, or I'll find an exorcist or something to exorcise you.” Orion shivered at the idea and decided hey. Why not? It wasn't like he'd lose time over this.
All he had was time.
It wasn't everyday a ghost like himself could have a conversation with someone where they would respond back.
“I'm coming!” He stood up and made his way to Roxas. His new companion. Maybe even future friend? It was exciting!
