Welcome to Gaia! ::

Niemi's eyes were drawn to what had to be one of the most confident women he'd seen in his life. Most of the girls that were in his life had been timid or just quiet, much like himself but Apple, as she introduced herself, seemed to be completely unafraid of injecting herself into a conversation and just taking control. And there seemed to still be that tension between her and Aefes that he had noticed when he entered.

He bit down on his lip as they made their offers, it seemed that the conflict he had tried to avoid had become centered around him. "Ah I..can't just let someone else take my luggage." he was walking on some pretty pointy eggshells with this conversation, he didn't want to choose sides - it was their conflict and he wanted no part of anything so unpleasant. His life had enough problems, drama was the list thing on his to-do list. "After I put my things away I would be glad to chat with all of the house guests." he added, hoping that would keep him on their good sides. But also it was true, he should go ahead and get to know his housemates and hopefully even make some friends, considering how long they would be stuck together.

Soon after their bout of tense subtle arguing though a skuntank entered, she seemed uninterested in them, and in this entire situation. She seemed kind of bitter from what Niemi saw but she did have very lovely hair, the seaking noticed, complimentary colors. And right behind her was a magmortar, and apparently he and Aefes knew one another. That was good, maybe it would help diffuse the hard feelings between Aefes and the scantily clad gengar. "Hello, I'm Niemi." he introduced, in response to the man's introduction.

He was apparently a little late to speak up though because the boy was pounced by the feebas soon after his introduction. He watched their back and forth but it eventually halted when the feebas again suggested that Niemi let him show him to the rooms. "That would be nice, thank you." he responded, giving a small timid smile. He adjusted his bags up on his shoulder, still clinging to his book, he was ready to put his things away. And more than directional help, he would appreciate someone to keep him on task, his mind had a tendency to wander.

Niemi smiled as the feebas got up, grabbing his luggage once more. That was nice to have help with it, he unfortunately had a habit of over packing for trips and such. He nodded as he followed the energetic male. He seemed a tad bit overly friendly, just a tad. Except towards that gengar, he didn't appear to like her at all. Well you can't be too friendly, can you? It was a good thing, he assumed, or rather hoped.

"Hm." he looked around at the rooms, there wasn't many differences in them and Niemi didn't much mind where he slept as long as there was a comfortable bed to sleep in and a lamp to read by. "It doesn't make much difference to me." he admitted with a brief laugh, "You can choose for me if you would like." he offered finally, he would really be fine with any choice that was made. He would be happy to get his things unpacked so that he could take a seat closer to the growing group of people and get to know some of these people, that did seem to be the point of the show - aside from drama that is. And drama was one thing he wanted no part in.

Speaking of drama, the feebas didn't seem to him like the type that would willingly participate in it. At least from what the seaking saw. It made it odd to him that the man would be on a show as catty as this one. "So, Aefes, what made you come here?" he asked softly, small curiosity and an attempt to be more friendly. It helped that he found himself able to keep his head out of the clouds for a while apparently. At least his attention was on his company, as was polite, rather than on dreamier things. Niemi took it as a good sign and hoped that this trip brought only good things.

"Alright" Niemi said in response, he was fine with that decision and continued to wear that pretty smile on his face. But as the feebas emerged and began to contemplate his response it captured the seaking's short attention span. Once the answer came his mind began to drift. His life hadn't been exactly exciting either really. Things had happened in his life, but not really very many fun things. He'd had to learn to appreciate the little things, and most of all just dreaming. He'd learned to just be happy dreaming about the things in life that he wanted.

He supposed that the show did seem lively at least, it would be a switch up from his normal life, and probably a big switch for most of the guests. He was snapped from his thoughts when hands were on his back, leading him into the room that he'd now be staying in. He laughed, a light pink tint rising in his pale cheeks, he had spaced out again and hadn't even taken his things into the room yet, it was embarrassing for him. "Alright, alright, I'm hurrying!" he joked with another bout of laughter. But he was now.

He went into the room and began unzipping bags, everything in them was carefully organized and all of the clothes very neatly folded. The rolling luggage was filled with mostly notebooks, some blank and some obviously worn down with many pages stuck in them. The notebooks were probably the only thing in his bags that was messy and disorganized. He left most of the notebooks in there but shoved one beneath his pillow, one that was more worn down than the others and had a pencil stuck in between the pages. "All done.~" he chimed, spinning around to smile at the man, completely oblivious to the feebas's less than admirable intentions.

Niemi just had to laugh at the enthusiasm and it didn't take long after that before his wrist was grabbed and big brown eyes were staring at him. The way that he stared into the seaking's eyes made the laughter end abruptly as he just stared back, confused as to just what it was that the feebas saw that made him stare like that. It made him feel like the world had dissipated around him and he was stuck in this awkward feeling, wondering what he was expecting to see there. But it wasn't a very long moment, only seemed that way to the spacey seaking.

"I..um..yeah." he responded, pulling himself from the moment as Aefes turned to look down the hall. When he realized that the feebas didn't even know where they were going it revived his laughter. "An adventure it is then!" he said with a laugh, exaggerating the movement of raising a finger to the sky before heading off to lead the way in another direction, looking around in his search. When he caught sight of a stove he gave a wide smile, proud of himself.

He led the feebas into the kitchen. "Success." he said turning to Aefes now, pulling his hand free to clasp both hands in front of himself. "So what are you making for us?~" he teased, though honestly he hoped that the feebas was a better cook than he was because he knew how to make very few things, just enough to be able to take care of himself.
