"UGHHHHH!" Ethan bangs his fists and head full of white-blonde hair with blue and pink highlights on his colourful bed sheets. 

"UGH! Where have you been?" he cries as Saturday enters the dorm by opening a section of the big round window with the spider web pattern. The tall, black haired boy was back from his investigation of Bianco's dormitory, and he was more than a little annoyed at the self appointed black King.

"I'm literally having a heart attack right now." he panics as he approaches his roommate.

His face was flushed and he was wearing a light yellow, orange, hot pink, medium pink and light pink sweater with matching shorts filled with coloured flowers and a hot pink shirt on the inside. He was also sporting a red apple watch.

"Yuki is in the infirmary!" he exclaims, his face full of anguish as he paces on the spot.

"What happened?" asks Saturday cooly and calmly, standing by the window.

"Garlic bread incident at dinner. He had a major allergic reaction which means he's out of the Poe Cup and I don't have a co-pilot." Ethan says all of this very quickly, his voice trembling with emotion as he continues to pace.

"It wasn't an accident. Bianco's behind it." Saturday immediately replies expressionlessly glancing at the floorboards.

"How do you know?" cries Ethan in surprise.

"Doesn't matter. You and I are going to take him down tomorrow." says Saturday, the dim lighting of their dormitory making him look deader than ever, though his obsidian eyes were shining like black stars.

"Wait. You're joining the Black Canines?" he steps forward, a bit into Saturday's space and the black floppy haired boy instinctively moves back a step. "You're willing to do that?" he asks hopefully, his tone soft, clasping his hands together. "For me?"

"I want to humiliate Bianco so badly that the bitter taste of defeat burns in his throat." says Saturday icily.

"Yeah, but mostly you're doing it because we're best mates, right?" asks the handsome werewolf carefully, now out of his sulk.

Saturday turns around to face the webbed window.

"Tell me how he keeps winning." Saturday orders.

"It's a real brain cramp. The past two years, no other boat has made it across and back without sinking." Ethan says defeatedly.
