[Just ...reading a book in the background. If he's noticed the strange new housemate he hasn't said anything.]

[Turning about to walk by him...]

[DOUBLETAKE]

[Oh fudgesicles an adult. Even with knowledge of human social structures there's something very unnerving about this intergenerational hive-sharing business.]

I assume that you are the male adult custodian.

[Looks up from his book.]

I suppose that's one way to put it. My name is Johan.

I take it you woke up here?

[cantwhinnyemall]

[Man up, Equius; he's not even particularly intimidating you are perfectly capable of holding a civil conversation.]

That is correct.

I am Equius.

[hungry_monster]

[He's very polite looking.]

You'll be staying here then I suppose.

Has anyone told you about this place yet?

[cantwhinnyemall]

I am aware of the common pitfalls of the setting.

[hungry_monster]

[He nods.]

Feel free to ask if you have any other questions then.
