Welcome to Gaia! ::

:Suri nodded, promptly sitting down on the ground in front of Michiko and Mizu. Secretly she preferred hard floors. If possible, she usually slept on little more than a tatami mat. It was not that she disdained the rich and comfortable, but it had just been another thing that had been drilled into her. Since her back was turned, she only noticed a bright flash behind her and did not notice what Mock had done. Accounting for the rapidity and brightness, she guessed easily. Even though she had died long before, Suri usually kept up to date with the modern world so that she would not be startled on missions such as this.

"Yes, I am settled in. It was not hard work," Suri answered Michiko's first question before moving to the second. "And I believe that Mock just took a picture of us. It is an odd creation. The scene is imprinted on a strip of special plastic. It is similar to a painting, except a lot quicker and it looks far more realistic. Just think of it as the scene of us sitting here just now frozen on a piece of plastic."

She had been dumbfounded at first too, and she understood Michiko's confusion. Even after knowing about cameras for so long and seeing them used, Suri still had trouble understanding how they worked.:

Mock noticed both Michiko's and Suri's look of surprise on their faces, as they turned to face him and his camera... Yes... That's right!!! I love the gadgets around here!... Although I really can't understand how they work either... he said, as he scratched the back of his head This is my first time wearing a Gigai... I've been to Earth several times in the past, but it was always in my shinigami form... So I was never able to took some snapshots as souvenirs... I can't really remember, but I do believe that this was something that I used to do, when I was still alive... It just comes natural to me, that's all!!!...

MockaDash approached the remaining shinigamis and sat on the floor, legs crossed... He turned to Michiko, who seemed to be more unfamiliar with the device he held in his hands, and asked her, while stretching his arms as if handing over the camera to her Would you like to take a photo with it? Would you like to give it a try???

After making his way up the staircase, Tansen began walking down the long and all too familiar hallway that led to his old room. It was as dusty as the rest of the house, but what made this place so different were the numerous paintings lined against the wall. When he was a mere eight feet from his destination, he stopped and paused in front of the large painting in front of him. It was Tansen just before his life had ended. He was smiling happily and next to him was a beautiful woman around the age of twenty with beautiful long blue hair and matching blue eyes. "Rose..." God how I miss you...Those days with you...They meant so much to me...

His mind immediately snapped back to reality as he heard Hitsugaya speaking to him. "Oh, umm...Hey. I umm..." Words were failing to come out of his mouth but he managed to force them out anyway. "Head downsatairs and wait until I come down to get orders, okay? I suggest you deposit your things in your room, they're in the other hallway. Now, if you'll excuse me..." Without wasting another word, he walked away from Hitsugaya, made his way into his old room, and closed the door to settle himself in.

Toshiro nodded and bowed at Tansen before his departure in search for an empty room. He walked down the hall and spotted an empty room for him to settle in within. The floors were highly polished wood of what he though would have been oak. Dropping a small bag in which he carried with him to this mission, it made a loud thud as it impacted against the ground. Inside of it were simple dark blue bed sheets, a stripped blue pillow casing, and dark blue blankets.

He quickly layed the covers over tha bed and easily pulled the pillow inside the casing. He examined the dark room with admiration for it's size. Thinking about Tansan's past, he wondered if Tansan was part of an aristocratic family. The walls lined with a thin layer of white paint. He walked over to the arched window and opened it so that the sun would shine into the room. Not knowing much about the human world, he didn't understand the oddly shaped switch next to the door. He carefully examined it and noticed that it would be able to switch upward. The problem for him was.. would it trigger a trap? Or would it sound some sort of alarm?

Summoning the most of his courage he armored his hand in layers of ice. He pressed his finger against the bottom of the switch and flipped it upward with his face flinching. It made a sharp clicking noise as it triggered a lamp in the corner on top of the desk to light up. Along with it, the ceiling light lit up as well. Jumping to the ground with all haste, he placed his hands over his head and braced for impact. Tilting his head upward after laying there for a few minutes, he got up and dusted himself off. He blushed at his acts of embarrasment. He laughed and walked out of the room. With millions of questons about the human world in his head.

Falling backwards on top of someone, Michiko came sliding down. The camera fell out of her hands and landed with a thud on the floor nearby. Blinking a few times, trying to get rid of the spots she was seeing, she heard Tansen underneath her. Her face went as red as her hair. I did it again!?

"Oh my gosh, I'm sorry Tansen!" Michiko said moving back and forth trying to scramble to her feet, only to stand and trip herself, landing on her stomach on the ground. Feeling her red face going even hotter she was glad her face was to the floor at that moment.

(( XD Again and again.
Anyways I'm off for the night~))

MockaDash smiled as he witness Michiko's clumsiness with the camera... His expression changed to a worried one, as he saw both her and his camera falling to the ground...
Mock was going to help Michicko, but he noticed that Tansen was already "taking care" of that... The camera was important to him, but helping the fellow shinigami not getting hurt, was even more... So, he completely forgot to prevent the camera from falling, while his attention was focused on Michiko... You were lucky Tansen was there to sustain your fall!!!... he said, as he got up and checked if everything was fine with his camera...

I believe this will turn out to be a fine picture of you, Michiko-san!!!... Mock said with a warm and cozy smile, directed at her... He then turned his attention to Tansen, and spoke with a more formal and serious tone of voice Tansen-sama... Do we have our orders?

Hitsugaya Toshiro finally settled into his room and turned toward the all to frightening switch that scared him earlier. Using his right index finger, he flipped it downward and walked out of the door. Closing it behind him. He heard an awful lot of commotion downstairs where everyone was gathered. He walked down the stairs slowly, trying to be as quiet as possible without drawing attention. He walked up to the crowd of people and smiled warmly. "So I guess I was the last one to get settled in... how is everyone liking Earth so far?" He asked softly.
