They were a group now, him, Xevphera, Lalna, Rythian, Sips, Lomadia and Nilesy. He was happy to be with a group of friends now and not just on his own. Lalna was quiet a good roommate, he was a laugh. They all had the same classes together and got to know each other quite fast, it was only the third week of the term, but they were already really good friends.
Xephos felt like he could open out a bit when he was with them, especially with Xevphera, who was starting to come out of her shell a bit aswell, and soon enough he learnt that she had a knack for getting into trouble and playing pranks. By the middle of the second week when they had only been hanging out for a few days they decided to give the two newcomers nicknames. The rest already had nicknames for each other that actually suited them.
Lalna was amazing at science, mostly biology and was nicknamed 'the mad scientist' because whenever they had to do an experiment him and the elf would mix a bunch of random things together and watch it overflow laughing with the rest of the group. Apparently he had been like that his whole life. Rythian's nickname was 'the mage' because he was quite scary and because his eyes reminded his brother of wizards he used to watch on TV when they were kids. Lomadia's nickname was owl queen for obvious reasons, Xephos wondered weather her mail was delivered by owl like in Harry Potter or something. Sips' nickname was dirt trader because she loved to dig dirt on other people and share it with the rest of the group, she would make quiet a good reporter for a newspaper or something. And Nilesys' nickname was pool boy from a party the lot had had when they threw him into the pool he had helped his parents build. Apparently they arranged a small party between the five of them but it got out of hand when the black stuff Lalna had made got involved and everyone had shown up, it didn't sound pretty and Nilesy ended up being chucked into the pool.
It was only a matter of time before the newcomers got nicknames aswell, hopefully not as weird as the ones the group had. It had started on the third day of them being friends, they were all talking about their hobbies and having a few secret drinks in their dorm. They were in Xephos's and Lalna's room away from the jocks. Lalna had burst out laughing and the others joined in not having the first clue what he was laughing about, and neither did he. He ended up turning to Xephos and calling him a spaceman, probably because of his peculiar personality and alienality he portrayed to the group and the way he stood out from most of the people at the academy. And that was now his new nickname, spaceman. He kind of liked it and thought that it suited him like the others nicknames did. When they didn't call him spaceman they called him 'glasses' in a joke bullying way that the group did.
Xevphera's was made the next day and it was pretty obvious what it would be they had called her elf at first but it didn't seem to suit so they ended up calling her Elfling instead it seemed to work better. She didn't seem to mind the nickname but told Xephos she would have preferred to have a shortened version of her name instead. Xephos had thought on this and decided to call her Xevph the next day, she seemed to like it and the others started to call it her aswell as Elfling, she seemed happy about this and thanked Xephos.
Now on the third week the rest of the students in the class started to realise that the group had nicknames for each other and got pretty annoyed at this. They decided to laugh at the group, but then the group of jocks were laughing at Xevphera. The elf didn't seem to mind at first and just ignored them and got on with what she was doing. Xephos felt bad as their friends looked to her, but she just looked down at her work. One day the jocks were making fun of her as the group of friends walked down the isle in the cafeteria, out of nowhere the elf turned round and punched one of them in the nose. He backed off holding his broken and bleeding nose. The others looked surprised at the elf as the jocks legged it away. Wow! The quiet elf could hit hard!

Do you have Spock as one of them?
I think I would be called the enigma, because I am one, Liz T Sigma is my OC, and enigma Sigma rhymes and makes sense.
that or the Skylord. Or something like that

Yeah, but it doesn't have the awesomeness as the 'Mad Scientist' has to it.
