"I think I would need one.... I don't know to keep a room clean" he was visibly embarassed for admiting it. Even though he had to keep his room tody back at home, it was his mother who did the cleaning

"Okay then. Thanks"
Even though Newt was a janitor, cleaning up a whole room felt like too much to ask... specially considering the state of this one

"I'll t-try to stop by!" He smiled, backing towards the stairs, "B-but I n-need to get back to work... it's a l-large villiage."

Cody watched as Newt proceded to his duplex, waving him a goodbye before he went to his
End

[New RP]
It was dusk. Nita had spent most of the day in the jungle, practicing climbing trees and just sitting around. It was peaceful there, in the shade, even if it did get awfully humid. The beach was less muggy, and there was a breeze, and with the sun going down it was cool enough for Nita's furry body.
Her hair was braided as usual; she wore a tanktop and her old jeans which were practically shorts now. It was a good thing they sat rather low on her hips, now that she had a good two feet of ringed tail. Nita sat quietly with her chin resting on her knees, simply staring out across the ocean.

Alec had spent the last few days around village and in the jungle, only ducking in to gather some food for a meal a few times a day to keep his bottomless stomach satiated.
He couldn't bear the thought of staying inside at this point and he was too aggitated to sit down and relax anywhere, so he'd often find himself wandering aimlessly. The teen was thankful he hadn't bumped into anybody yet, hoping the lucky streak would continue as he fumbled towards the beach.
Bare feet kicked up sand as he huffed to himself, making a path straight into the water. He'd gotten as deep as the premature fins on the back of his heels when he stopped and merely stood staring. What to do? Go for a swim? He wasn't the best swimmer either.

Nita raised her eyebrows (which were now rather oddly defined) as the familiar form of her downstairs neighbor walked right past her and into the shallows. Alec seemed almost contemplative, or maybe just a bit stunned. Shrugging, Nita stood up and brushed the sand off of her pants and tail. She wanted to thank him for helping her that night... She vaguely remembered being seriously screwed up.
She padded the few yards to the wet packed sand, making little clawed footprints. Standing a bit to Alec's left, she said, "Hey there..."

Alec flinched and swung around as if a large bee had stung him from behind without warning. His face had the expression of fear for a moment though his mind hadn't registered who or what was infront of him yet. The look slowly melted away when he recognized the orange hair and furry complexion even though she was much more changed than the last time he'd seen her.
"Huh? Oh... Aye Nita." He numbly responded, his coursing adrenaline now nothing but a dull pain in his temples. He then realized how utterly stupid he must look and took a few steps away from the tide to try and save himself the embarassment. It was then he recalled the weird last encounter with the furry girl in her duplex. "'Ow are ye?"

Nita jumped backwards, ears flattened against her head. "Woah, um.. Sorry. Didn't mean to surprise you." She attempted a smile. "Yeah.. I'm okay now. I was having some trouble with my meds." Understatement of the month, she thought wryly.
She shifted back and forth slightly, hands clasped behind her back, tail moving slowly. Nita hadn't quite got the hang of moving the new appendage deliberately, but it seemed to know what to do. "Just, ah, wanted to say thanks. For helping me that night when I was.. weird." Her ears moved back to their normal upright position. "So.. how have you been?"

Nita's twitchy movements made him want to react the same but he did his best to control his nerves and calm himself down. He knew he'd been driving himself nuts these past few days and it wasn't good for his health, mental or otherwise. "S'ekay." He shugged, moving to plop down beside her in the somewhat damp sand as if he didn't care if his shorts were soacked or not.
"Glad ye betteh." The punk teen slowly began as he picked at the displaced sand before continuing. "Ye were fookin scarin th'shite ou' a me. Like ye were g'neh start chattin 'n latin n' crawlin th'walls." He managed to make himself snicker. "'ave been.... ekay. F'theh most par'."

Nita worked to control herself; she didn't like being so nervous and twitchy. Red pandas aren't exactly fearsome predators and full of confidence. She settled into a crouch, balancing delicately on the balls of her feet, claws digging into the sand, pulling her tail across her lap so it wouldn't get wet.
"Thanks," she said again. "I really didn't mean to freak you out. It wasn't much fun on my end, either." She quirked her mouth into a semblance of a smile. "For the most part?"

Alec shrugged again, not wanting to make a big deal out of his mini-mental breakdown. "Ye... been a lil bummed ou'.." He stopped and looked at the odd image of Nita squatting in the sand, suddenly finding much amusement in her new appendage. "Ye've been buseh." He smirked childishly and reached out quickly to poke at the flickering, puffy tail. "Cute."

"Yeah..." Nita agreed. It was easy to get bummed out, especially if one didn't stay distracted. "Hey!" Her tail jerked away from the offending finger. "You know, you're the second person that's told me it was cute." Nita grinned. It was kind of cute, actually. Even if it did hurt like a b***h to grow.

"I' is sorteh, looks like a teddeh's." He admittedly nodded to the description of her tail, finding it not as disturbing to look at as some of the other oddities he'd experienced. come to think of it, a fluffy girlfriend wouldn't bo THAT bad.
"Realleh now, ou's else said i'?" Now he was just pushing his luck in being nosey, boredom must have been so bad that he was resorting to such a girly tactic as gossiping for entertainment.
