[Raining. Fortunately, Cameron is nothing if not a little pra- okay sie's not that pragmatic, but sie is sweet and sie is a little inventive. Having found a Sphere at the item shop a day before the rain starting falling, sie's been experimenting with hir magic. The upwards limit of hir abilities is low, but enough to make a practical

"Spring rain:
telling stories,
a straw coat and umbrella walk past"

... My teacher taught me that one. It's a poem about youkai.

[kissdiet]

-Ah, forgive me, Cirno, but I don't know what "youkai" are?

[baka_jyanai]

It's a Japanese word. For like... stuff that isn't like normal people and animals and stuff. Like, because I'm a fairy, I'm called a "youkai".

[kissdiet]

...I'm sorry, I'm afraid I still don't understand. I don't know what a "fairy" is, and nor do I know how you differentiate "normal" from "abnormal" in this case.

[A small hesitant pause and starts off singing Stormy Weather.]

There's quite a few others I can think of, but it's a good old classic.

[voice]

[kissdiet]

...You have a very pretty voice.

[voice]

[doubleppk]

Thank you very much!

[voice]

[kissdiet]

[Oh. Sie should say more. A light cough]

So that's... a song from your people?

[coolstempers]

[And when Cameron stops by Piers is actually home and awake amazingly enough. Actually, it was pretty good timing because he will likely be leaving for a time once the weather gets a bit better.

And the door will open not too long after Cameron first knocks.] Ah, good morning, Cameron.

[Though how Cameron found out where he lived is curious enough. Someone really needs to meet the rest of the neighbors already.]

1/2

[kissdiet]

-Oh, Piers, I didn't know you lived here. Good morning.

[Sie's a bit too surprised to think a moment. It's mild, but still enough to throw off hir plan a moment...]

[kissdiet]

[but then sie recovers. A little excited, actually]

We're neighbors?! I didn't know that!

[coolstempers]

[Well, that's a surprise and a bit of a relief. For a short moment Piers had been considered Cameron was stalking him or something.] I didn't know it either. Obviously I should meet the rest.

[And then he remembers his manners and opens the door wider.] Come in. It's rude for me to leave you out in the hallway like that.

[As Cameron enters the appartment Cerule greets hir with a smile. How did your gift giving go, roomie?]

[kissdiet]

[A little tiring, but overall very well. Sie smiles right back, giving a nice little nod]

Our floormates seem to be very nice, all things considered.

[onlykissesgirls]

[Maybe Cerule should have joined Cameron... but that would run the risk of meeting boys, or worse. Jack. She stands to give Cam a kiss.]

[kissdiet]

[Kiss. The charge isn't much because Cam doesn't hold it long. It's just to let the other speak, right?]

[honorbeforeall]

[If that's Jack she swears she's going to--

--oh. Well, that's a good sign. Though you're not particularly familiar.]

Can I help you?

[Action]

[kissdiet]

[Oh good, this one looks more or less awake. Cameron smiles and just presses straight on into the introductions]

Hello, I'm Cameron and I just moved in to one of the other apartments on this floor with a friend of mine. I thought it would be... polite to give a good will gift to my new neighbors, so I brought you something.

[Holding out... a box. Same thing in it as all the others.]

[Action]

[honorbeforeall]

[Hohh. It seems for every overly rude person in Luceti there's someone who takes it to the other extreme. She reaches out to take the box with a faintly perplexed look, but does glance up after a moment, giving a faint nod.]

Your gift is appreciated. Cameron, was it? My name is Karai.

[Action]

[kissdiet]

That's right. [And... polite smile. Let's win them with charm!] It's nice to meet you, Karai. I hope we can build a amicable neighbor relationship.

[...Yeah sie's a little awkward. but sie means well.]
