Someone new might have been more cautious, might have lingered in his or her room for a few days, only venturing out after being pulled from their cozy little shell of safe existence, away from whatever madness might be going on out there. And maybe then, just a quick peek at the outside world before going back to hiding beneath their covers.
Not Arya. He walked from his room the moment he figured out he was in a room and wandered. None of the faces were familiar, not even the same race (and a few times he had to question if they were the same species or not). But he didn't talk to anyone, oh no, he just wandered.
And, eventually, managed to navigate his way directly into some guy sucking on something that looked suspiciously like a blood bag. Arya looked offended, if maybe only for a second, but backed away, stared down at Nicki and, finally, asked someone.
“Oh for heavens.. .” Oh, hello there. Nicki briefly wondered if he had blood on his face (He did) “This is the Kitchen, Monsieur. Its where the food comes from. Oh dear..” his he made a face “You’re one of the new ones, aren’t you? Someone’s lucky, just missed himself a bit of mass sacrifice” he sucked on the blood a bit more, and in a flash kissed the boys cheeks “Nicolas de Lenfent, love. And you’re dead. Welcome to the good ship afterlife”
Arya stared first at the blood, then back up at Nicki, then back to the blood. He was barely registering the words. Nothing really made sense around here to him. Something about him being dead, this being Hell, everything being all messed up and nonsensical and now this Nicolas character was giving him a kiss and jumping to love faster than Arya did. "Emi...? What...?"
He sort of pulls his lips into a pout at first and then shakes his head. "No, no, no, no. I have to get back to Ajay immediately, last thing I know, stepdad has a knife and Ajay could be seriously hurt!"
"Sorry, there isn’t any getting off this place. I’ve tried, heaven knows" Nicki rolled his eyes lightly “You’re dead, this is some bizarre attempt at redemption, but you missed the Aztecs, so I suppose you’re in luck. Quite unpleasant, that was” Nicki’s nose crunched up at the thought “Its not so bad, there’s good food. Are you human?” he leaned and sniffed “You smell human”

"Where am I?"
