[ He feels lucky he's the person he is now.

For all his anxieties over being split from Mickey and putting their important mission on hold, he at least can cope with this 'meeting AND living with total strangers' situation better than he would have before. It's not the ideal. If he had to be here with anyone, he'd rather it be Sora and Kairi, but he can manage. He's fine.

Probably.

Riku pushes open the door for his two new housemates and listens to it creak. It's abandoned, but maybe not for as long as some other buildings he's seen. That being said, the insides are sparse and he absolutely feels a draft coming through from the opposite side of the house.

Looks like some repairs ahead. At least he can use a hammer and nails, if he can find them, and keep himself a little busy here. ]

Doesn't look like much, does it?

Comments

[uuuh]

Hmf.

[Her grunt sounds less than impressed. It's so much different than things were the last time she was summoned, even if it is just a house. And there are no orders to follow, no War to struggle in, no promise of obtaining the Holy Grail.

She can sense, however, that neither of the people she's wishing with are enemies to her, and so hasn't seen them as a threat even when they've been given these shared quarters. Unlike most humans, neither of them even ran away from her in fear.

She isn't sure what to do with that knowledge. She isn't even sure what her place is supposed to be here.

Feeling the draft as Riku does, she ventures further into the house, poking at the foundation and the walls in an attempt to find it as she traces the source, fixated and silent.

She might need to be called back if either of them want to talk...]

[decapitated]

[ though they're strangers from another world, having people to live with is a concept that Mami is strangely looking forward to. forced cohabitation isn't the ideal way to start a friendship, but it's definitely a forceful push in the right direction that she intends to use as footing for something more genuine. it's preferable to being alone in a mysterious new world - or alone in general, really.

she'll have to be careful with her magic, but it's a sacrifice she's willing to make. ]

It's humble, but nothing that a bit of cleaning up can't fix. I'm sure it will be manageable between the three of us.

[ doing her best to be optimistic, she glances at the two of them. she won't gather them just yet, speaking to the room rather than both of them individually to give them all space to explore. ]

Having a roof over our heads is a step in the right direction, at least.

[yuugure]

[ Riku watched Fran wander past and trail her way to the other side of the lower floor. Did she feel the draft too? Is she looking for something else? He furrows his brow and frowns. If the floor's bad anywhere, she could hurt herself. He opts to call out to her. ]

I wouldn't wander around on your own too much yet... not sure how great the condition of things are, right?

[ Then he turns his attention back to Mami, shutting the door behind them to keep out the cool air. They've all got some warming up to do after their unfortunate arrivals. ]

Yeah. This isn't the kinda weather where you want to be stuck sleeping outside every night. I think we can put a little work in and have someplace comfortable until we find our way out.

[uuuh]

[She makes a petulant noise when she's scolded, shifting her weight from leg to leg. Isn't it better for her to go ahead instead of a human?

She doesn't venture any further, but she does stand in place, peering curiously into the depths of the decrepit house.]

Uhh. [She points in the direction of what seems to be a bedroom, or at least more private quarters. Admitting that she doesn't need a place to sleep wasn't really what she wanted to do, but it's probably better to take spirit form to conserve energy, anyway. In her gesture is the suggestion that at least one of them try to set up in that other room.]

[decapitated]

[ Riku's light scolding makes Mami smile as she approaches where Fran is. ] Let me join her, then.

[ she gives Fran a friendly smile. it doesn't seem like this girl speaks very much, but whether or not it's because she can't remains to be seen. ]

It looks like there's enough room for all three of us. That's almost too convenient...

[ she isn't about to bite the hand that feeds her (especially because she doesn't know who that hand belongs to in the first place), but it feels prudent to point out. as she tentatively opens the door to one room, she lets out a small gasp. ]

There's a computer in here.

[yuugure]

[ Hey, he gave them a warning, right? They can suit themselves. He's fallen through enough floors and Suddenly Appearing Holes and whale guts to be cautious. It's a consequence of years of dealing with the darkness.

Oh well. There's three of them here if something happens. He starts moving in the opposite direction, treading lightly and crossing through the living area to examine the windows on the other side. ]

Yeah, I won't consider it a courtesy.

[ He looks over as Fran motions towards one of the other rooms and watches Mami travel into it with a feeling of apprehension. Why's he feeling so nervous? This feels so different from his usual world-hopping mishaps. A lot of elements are missing... he can't stop thinking about Aqua... Mickey. What's happening here? This can't be the realm of darkness, can it?

He decides to concede and walk to their side of the house, poking his head through the doorway and frowning. ]

A computer? In a place like this?

[uuuh]

[It's certainly not the same as the device her Master had owned--that was huge and boxy and made of separate part and an enormous waste of electricity.

But it does have much the same feel to it, just in more compact form, and so Berserker hurries over to inspect the laptop--still leading the way in traipsing across the house with less concern for loose floorboards or decaying foundations.

She lifts up the edge of it with surprising delicacy, examining it for a visible power source. Hopefully whoever abandoned this house didn't leave it on all this time, abandoning it to be wasteful.

She lifts it and pops open the lid, holding it out for them to look at.] Hmph.

[decapitated]

It doesn't exactly fit the theme...

[ making sure that Riku has room beside her, Mami leans in to inspect the laptop. there's no power source that she can see on the desk it came from, and it also looks like there are no things to click on other than the monochrome webpage it's open to. ]

It's some sort of message board.

[ she reaches to the touch pad to scroll down the page slowly. ]
