Welcome to Gaia! ::

Olga was standing in front of the wall display which contained a numerous amount of water filled tanks, complete with numerous amounts of fish. This pet store was like...the mega pet store of pet stores, and it had been the best decision to look for a pet here. Nadia and her room mate had that cute puppy--she needed something too! Something to welcome her home and depend upon her for care and nourishment and love--

And well---a dog or a cat was out of the question. She didn't have the funds to afford the care of one of those, however, a fish--- yeah, she could manage that, but it had to be like the most amazing fish ever.

Except she still wasn't closely inspecting the tanks yet. No. She was still standing a distance away, with her arms outstretched as if she could encompass all the fish within them and hug them. Suffice to say, she was getting some odd looks for standing there with her arms outstretched, basking in the blue glow of the tanks and the hypnotic movement of fish.

"What---" Olga choked, and then spluttered. "I--what, no. No, guy what is wrong with--" She snapped her head to the side to see who thought she was going to eat the fish, but then promptly stared and opened her mouth like a fish, except nothing came out. Oh, and to add to the embarrassment, her cheeks turned red, because she was, once again, in the appearance of another hot guy.

Was this real life.

She wished she had left her country town and came here sooner. She didn't know what to do with herself though--Oh wait, that was kind of a lie. Olga reached into her bag, grabbed her Polaroid camera, and then snapped a photo of the young man next to her as if this was a completely normal thing to do. She plucked the white square once the camera produced it, tucking her camera back into her bag. Olga then started to fan herself with the photo to both A) help the photo develop faster and also B) calm herself.

"I'm not here to eat one!" She replied, gaining some control back over herself. "I'm here to pet one--get one as a pet."

"Yeah--" Olga's black eyes were sparkling at the thought, and hope, that she could train a fish to like being pet. "You sound like a fish pro, guy--" And Olga did in fact, lean to look into his basket as she waved the photo to let it finish developing. Olga let out a loud gasp.

"WOWZERS!" She pointed at all the different colorful fish. "Look at all the awesome ones you're getting---and that tower, what--" She looked up at him with wide eyes. "WHAT? There's a tank that big--" Olga paused, eyeing his basket again before she looked up at him.

"Hey--" She started. "I want to get a pet fish today, but I've never owned one before---think you could help me out, yeah?" She grinned a bit.
