Summer 10 - newcomer mingle

[kollomods]

[ It's late morning when the ferry comes around, landing on the jetty and letting off a small but valued group of new arrivals. Olivia is out there, greeting and handing out information packets.

Later in the afternoon, there's a small welcome party set up at the community center. The tables are laden with cinnamon buns, elderflower lemonade, fresh strawberries and an assortment of small cookies and other treats. There's also thirium lovingly set up to the side of the buffet, for the android population. Ingvar shows up a little later with his accordion, setting the mood with some traditional folk songs like he's wont to do. ]

[ All the things Haein could potentially be doing in the privacy of his own room...!

Like changing his shirt, for example. Which he is actually doing right now. He'd already established being left alone with his other cabin mates, so he's not exactly expecting anyone to come peeking into his room.

Jokes on him, apparently. He freezes for a moment when his door opens, all wide-eyed staring with his newly changed into shirt still not entirely on him, before he quickly makes for the door to shove it closed and yell through it for her to hear from the other side. ]

What the hell are you doing!?

[ Some kind of pervert has moved into their cabin. ]

[Okay so Umi wasn't expecting much when she stepped off the boat, but some peace and quiet? Yeah, that was the plan. Not Magical-Chairs-Find-The-Room-That's-Not-Occupied. And she definitely wasn't expecting some half-dressed dude when she first opened this particular door, so full of hope, as if she'd finally be able to put this dang bag away.]

H...HAH?!

[Luckily the door slams in her face before said guy can see the flabbergasted shock plastered all over her now-red face...but she also has her pride, so she somehow manages to sound like this is Definitely Not Her Fault.]

How the heck do you expect me to figure out which room is mine when all the doors are CLOSED and UNMARKED, huh?!

[unwieldy]

[ There's a whole lot of angry huffing on Haein's end as he pulls his shirt down all the way. The peaceful and quiet Lingonberry cabin over. Time for all hell to break loose.

He wrenches the door back open in order to face her down, expression darkened with his usual scowl. ]

Are you incapable of knocking? Isn't that usually the first thing people do when they see a closed door?

[ Hello, nice to meet you, this is Haein the asshole. ]

[summonceles]

[On a normal day, and with a normal response, this is where Umi would issue an apology. She's not a monster, after all, and she does tend to feel bad when she does something dumb. She does feel embarrassed, too, for just sort of assuming the place was empty just because she couldn't hear anything.

However. However. If this guy's gonna double down on being a jerk, who needs manners anyway?!]

Agh-- whatever! Sorry for interrupting your weirdo strip session, then!

[It. It's called changing clothes....]

[unwieldy]

[ Oh no. Haein isn't one to back down ever. He'll stubbornly stand there and argue all day if he has to, don't think that he won't. ]

Strip... strip session?

[ That's a downright horrifying thought. He can't even change his clothes in the comfort of his own room now without basically being called a stripper! ]

If that's what you took out of it, you're both mannerless and a pervert.
