[[Aaron answers the door, seeing here there and noticing that bit hanging out of her pocket.

Well, this is awkward.]]

Umm... I never thought you were... and... uh... you have something sticking out of your pocket.

[ and she totally freezes mid-polite bow and she kind of starts trembling a little ]

[latelyblooming]

[ aaaaaand you get this face ]

If it wouldn't be too much trouble would you mind closing the door, and I'll knock again AND WE CAN OVERWRITE THIS FIRST MEETING FROM OUR MEMORIES?

[ not realizing that her voice is getting shriller and shriller until she's reaching a pitch only dogs can hear man ]

[pants_yourmove]

It's okay, I swear... just uh... push it further into your pocket...

[[Somehow, he is sure he won't forget this meeting.]]

[latelyblooming]

Excuse me then.

[ bowing again and then turning around and shoving the thing out of sight. when she turns back her smile is like LET US NOT MENTION IT. ...it's a little manically cheery ]

I know that this is going to sound strange especially after that thing we won't talk about, but would you mind if I take a look inside your house?

[pants_yourmove]

Ye... I mean, it probably wont be a good idea!

[[Remembeing Warren's general temperment.]]

Maybe, if you tell me what you need, I can help?

[latelyblooming]

[ her dignity dies a little bit more ]

I- Well I just arrived here and when I woke up...

Ah, I'd always thought I'd be more the kind of person who'd keep a cooler head if something like this were to ever happen. But it looks like that illusion was broken for me.

I ran out like an idiot. Now I don't know which house I came from. I know that it's supposed to be my "home" now or something!

Before I left, it looked like there were pictures of me around the house...

[pants_yourmove]

Oh, you're new. Okay, don't worry about it. Getting lost here happens to a lot of people at first.

Did you see a street name as you ran?

[[Going to try and be helpful.]]

[latelyblooming]

Not really... although I'm sure it's still on this street since I don't think I got far. [ fortunately ] ...well I just wanted to check to be sure if this wasn't by any chance the house I ran out of. But I guess you would have noticed if that were the case! Thank you for your help!

[pants_yourmove]

Oh... uh... okay.

I'm Aaron by the way. If you need anything else be sure to stop by.

[latelyblooming]

[ realizing that it's not really good manners to attempt a home invason and then dash off without introducing herself so Aaron could at least... warn people about her lmfao ]

Oh! I'm sorry! My name's Ohana Matsumae. It's nice to meet you... even if it did happen the way it did.

[ and then shuffling her feet all awkward ]

Well if I haven't inconvenienced you too much already... I do have a few more questions?

[pants_yourmove]

Nice to meet you. Don't worry about it, I've been greeted in worse ways.

[[Like being attacked.]]

Sure, what's on your mind?

[latelyblooming]

[ or a cleaning rag to the face! ...yeah being attacked is worse ]

Aha... well this is one of the friendliest first meetings I've had in a while so I'm glad!

[ dropping her voice low as if she doesn't want to be overheard ]

Well, is it true that we can't leave?

[pants_yourmove]

[[That first part makes him smile but it fades quickly with the question.]]

Yeah, right now no one knows how to leave. People are working on that though.

[latelyblooming]

If I were to try... would something terrible happen to me?

[latelyblooming]

I know it wouldn't be a good idea!

But there are people who are counting on me. If I didn't even try, well I just couldn't be satisfied with myself.
