Tristian turned quickly, blushing, eyes wide as he felt Opheliah's presence enter the kitchen. Oh! he squeeked, dumping the last of his water back into the sink, setting his cup on the counter. I was just leaving! he assured her, moving sort of around the kitchen as though he were slinking around something before making an attempt to run. With another nervous laugh, he waited for Phelia to move more into the kitchen so he could make his way out.

"Hey, wait a sec . . . "
She slipped in, but caught his elbow lightly, smiling, a little shyly.
"Don't let me run you off. I was just on my way out . . . "
She hesitated, smilign softly nd held out a hand.
"I guess you live here? I just moved in . . . . "

Tristian blushed deeply as Opheliah took his elbow. He looked to her hand a moment before offering a smile, taking it in his own and giving it a soft squeeze as he bowed his head slightly. I haven't lived here long...he told her, biting his lip as he looked to the floor in thought of his lover, smiling as he moved his eyes back to the girl. My name is Tristian. he offered, bowing his head to her again.

Yoshiko stretched at her easel, squinting and rubbing at her forhead. "lord, how long have i been drawing?" She glanced around her spare room, taking in the fading light from the windows, and stood up. "too long. I'm talking to myself."
heading for the door, she poked her head out into the hallway. though she couldn't see any signs, it just felt less empty. "I've been in here way too long..."
She found herself wandering down the corridor towards the stairs and the landlord's office.

She smiled, brightly, blushing a little (she was still a little shy of strangers) and gave something half between a bow and a curtsey, chirruping,
"It's lovely to meet you, my name is Ophelia. Or Phelia, or whatever you like, I'm not picky."
Bastian had flopped down in his desk chair, putting his feet up on the desk, and dug through his drawer. He pulled out a handheld gae console, and started to fiddle with it, music coming from it sounding quite nearly identical to the Katamari Demacy music.

Yoshiko perked up as the music reached her ears, dancing down the hallway towards the source and singing along softly. ".. -ri Dah-mah-shi...Dont-ah worr-i, do your best!" On 'best', she poked her head into the office and smiled at bastian. "hello there!"

It's nice to meet you, too, Opheliah...Tristian squeeked, bowing his head again to the girl. Do...you live here alone? he asked, slightly curious to know more about her, almost forgetting why he'd left the basement.

Bastian glanced up, surprisingly unsurprised and unstartled by the intrusion, for as involved as he'd been.
"Oh . . . uhh, can I help you?"
She shook her head, leaning back against the counter.
"Hmmm-mmm. I just moved in with my boyfriend, Saber DeLucas. What about you?"

Tristian blushed rather horribly at Opheliah's question, for he'd forgotten to realize it would only be kind to tell her the answer to the same question. I...er...I live with...um...m...my boyfriend, Lucius, in...in the basement...he studdered, biting his lip and averting his gaze as something about telling this new acquaintance that he had a male lover was rather...unnerving.

She blinked, a little unnerved herself. That . . . name . . .
She shook her head lightly, sighing. There had to be hundreds of boys with the same name. She smiled again, warmer than before to make up for the look she'd worn before. She reached out, feather-light and turned his head back towards her, so he could see that it didn't bother her.
"Really? I'll bet Saber would have liked the basement, if he could have gotten it. You must have been here before us."

Tristian blushed and offered a smile, letting a little laugh escape his throat. We've only had it a couple weeks, I think...Lucius got it for us because he said I deserved better than what he was living in before. He bit his lip again, still smiling to Opheliah. Maybe you and Saber could come and have a drink with us sometime? he offered, liking the thought of making more friends within the complex.

Yoshiko entered the office fully and extended a hand. "Sorry for interrupting your game, it's just such fun music. I'm yoshiko green, apartment 1-1. I assume you are our new landlord?"

She smiled, still just a fraction nervously at the thought of the too-familliar name.
"I would like that a lot, Tristian. But . . . "
She smiled, brightly, getting an idea.
"I was jsut about to go out and find a Chinese place, and get some take-out for me and Saber. Would you like to come with me?"
He smiled lazily, slowly, clsoing his game (after saving, of course) and leaning back in his chair.
"Uhhh, partially. My sister and I own the building in conjunction. But generally, yeah. Miss Yoshiko, my name is Bastian Quinn."
HE stood and bowed deeply, reaching out to take her hand, kissing it gentilly.

Chinese? Tristian echoed, tilting his head as a smile spread over his lips. I think I know where there's a place...one of my half-sisters found one in the mall she said...he chimed, offering a bright smile as he bowed his head to Opheliah. I'd love to go!

Yoshiko giggled and dipped in a fomal curtsy. "Nice to meet you, Bastian-san. "she paused." There seems to be a rash of hand-kissing going around... and he was a Quinn, too!" The girl's eyes widened delightedly, as if she'd just realized something. "Is Lucius-san perhaps related, then? Oh, how lovely!"
(she's feeling a bit flightier than usual, methinks.)
