[IC] Monster Musume: Everyday life with Monsters.

[Natsume Honnaji]

Today was the day Kimiko had been waiting for all of her life. Finally she could leave the forest without getting scolded by the elder and her parents. Finally she'd be able to interact with humans who aren't afraid of her. Her new life would take some adjusting to but in her eyes it was very much worth it to finally see her dreams come to life.

Kimiko watched the new city fly by out of the window of the car with excitement gleaming in her eyes her large fluffy tails swaying happily. "Oh boy oh boy! Look all of these buildings and people, I can't wait to learn more about it. I have all kinds of fun tricks and pranks planned for my new housemate. I wonder what kind of person they are, maybe their mean, but then maybe their nice!" She giggled lightly to herself her excitement reaching it's peak when the moment the car stopped outside of the place she'd be living now.

These buildings and roads were all new to Kimiko having lived in a forest all her life. She couldn't wait to explore however first she must meet the one who would be taking her in hoping they were nice. She walked to the door and knocked on it gently ready to greet them with a wide smile her tails standing upright. "Hi hi! My name is Kimiko Takahara and I shall be living with you henceforth. I do so hope we get a long! It's a pleasure to meet you, please be nice to me." Kimiko let out a soft childish giggle her voice gentle and high pitched.

Aela Theraphos

Aela had fit herself the best she could within the large van. While should would of preferred something more spacious the moving van was the best they could provide for one such as her and she did her best not to feel somewhat insulted and embarrassed that she was being transported like a piece of furniture. She had to remind herself that human vehicles did not accommodate beings her size at all and calmed herself on the matter. The largest downside to the van was she was unable to see the city and get a lay of the new surroundings she would be adjusting herself too that would be so different from her old home.

Aela could only assume they had reached their destination when the van stopped and it sounded like someone had exited the vehicle, no doubt the nuisance of a coordinator that she had been stuck with the entire time she made her case on being part of the exchange program. Her name was Miss Williams, a short and rather skinny person with a mop of dyed pink hair. For Aela she was to energetic and felt her to be somewhat of a cluts. However, the little woman had been the only one to listen to her plea and managed to get her into the program. That thought alone kept Aela from wrapping her in webbing and tossing her off a bridge for her being a pain in her side as well through the entire process pushing her to memorize every detail of the Exchange Bill.

The back of the van doors opened, blinding Aela briefly before her six eyes adjusted to the light."We are here miss Theraphos, don't make me regret this," the oddly short female coordinator stated in a shrill voice, turning her back to the arachne. It took all of Aela's nerve not to bite the miserable little pest of a coordinator as she exited the van looking at the building before. She hoped that the person that would be her guardian did not hate spiders like some of the stories from other arachne homestays. While large breeds were deemed unsafe the other breeds of arachne had been allowed into the program for awhile, but humans seemed to have a rather inconsiderate fear for arachnids as a whole making arachne difficult to place.

"Well Miss Therapos this is where I will leave you to do introductions, don't bite her and you should be good," Miss Williams said breaking Aela from her thoughts. Aela gave the coordinator a grin full of fangs and a small nod, the thought that finally the coordinator would be gone made her happy. At least until the pink mop checked on her but that wouldn't be for some time as long as Aela showed that she followed the rules.

'Oh great, a corpse,' Aela thought looking at the other girl that was to be part of the homestay it seemed as she walked her way up the path to the building. What little clothes she wore seemed to be in rags, making Aela somewhat happy that she had taken up knitting and sewing to calm herself since it allowed her to make her own clothes rather then make an attempt and borrow the poorly sized clothes at the Embassy that had been provided to her on first arrival. They had barely kept her decent. Still perhaps the other girl would be tolerable. After all it was another opportunity to show that arachne like her could mingle not only with humans but other races without fear.

Aela then remembered that she had yet to introduce herself. She lowered herself down slightly, still standing taller then either her guardian and other homestay but enough to at least feel somewhat more level with them."Greetings I'm Aela Theraphos," she said ",Pleasure to make your acquaintance." So far things seemed to be going well. At least no one was running or screaming in terror.

Interacting with: Kimiko Takahara@Natsume Honnaji
Zack cleaned the house from top to bottom. He was excited and nervous. He had signed up to be part of the exchange because he felt like he was ready to have people in his life again. It had taken him years after his mother's death for him to find himself. He had gotten lost for while. Once he was able to find his footing and move on the huge house felt empty. He had thought about renting some of the rooms. Or turning the old Victorian into a bed and breakfast but he didn't want people that would only be part of his life a short period of time. So neither of them as an ideal solution. But the exchange was perfect because the demihumans could be part of his life permanently.

Zack took a deep breath when he heard a knock on the door. His first demihumans was here. He was expecting two. He had had plenty of room so he didn't think it would be a problem. He wondered which one it would be as he headed towards the door. He put on his most charming smile as he opened the door. He chuckled at the woman's greeting. "Hello. My name is Zachary but you can call me Zack. Welcome to my home. Please come inside and make yourself at home. You can chose any of the empty rooms." He told her. This was the start of a whole new life for him.

Shau

When Shau reached the door and opened it she found herself face to face with her new monster. The girl was actually quite beautiful and Shau reached out to draw the girl in for a warm hug. She turned to her other monster, a great big arachnid like monster. She tried to give her a hug too but she found herself wrapping an arm around the spider's leg and moved away quickly.
"Well, welcome to my home! My name's Shau and I'm a university student. Here's a couple of keys for you guys to access the apartment. If you guys follow me to the guest rooms I can show you guys your spaces."

Even though Shau had only one guest room she had managed to convert the storage room into another one that almost resembled the original. She thought that the arachnid would like that one. Wasn't she friends with the other spiders? Shau really didn't know.

She quickly pointed out all of the different rooms and tour before asking "So what do you guys want to do?"

Nick's House

--------------

"How nice of you to be so well prepared, Mister Gallagher."

Miss Smith

"Huh?"

Apparently Nick's extraspecies housemate had arrived. He was so flabbergasted that he could not say anything as Agent Smith explained to him who was staying with him as well as the rules of the Cultural Exchange Program. There was also an evaluation somewhere down the line which would determine if he was able to host an extraspecies. That only added to his surprise.

Agent Smith explained that his housemate would be some sort of termite girl. Nick's imagination quickly formed some sort of insect girl but insects varied heavily and so he was in for a surprise no matter what he expected.

“Yeah, yeah, plural housing, whatever… Dolores! Get over here. I want you to meet your host family.”

Miss Smith

Dolores. That would be her name. It sounded a normal girl's name to Nick but perhaps it's just like that. Men with boxes barged into the house and it was obvious to Nick that those were the extraspecies' belongings but along them was a girl. A girl who had big, red eyes and purple hair though her most notable feature were the pink tendrils that hung from her head as if they were hair.

She also had a... strange sense of fashion but other than that, she looked like a human. Nick had expected more... extraordinary features but he figured there was probably more to this girl than meets the eye.

“Well, that settles it! See you happy two in about a week!”

Miss Smith

She and her men went as soon as she arrived, leaving me alone with this termite girl. Nick silently admitted that she was more humanoid than he expected but he would welcome her nonetheless.

"Uh, hello there. My name is Nicholas. Nicholas Gallagher but you can call me Nick." He introduced himself. "I guess we're going to be living together."

The Duchess: Living together

---

"Uh, hello there. My name is Nicholas. Nicholas Gallagher but you can call me Nick." He introduced himself. "I guess we're going to be living together."

Nick

Dolores did not see anything yet, but she heard a nice voice. Grabbing for Nick's arm, she caught hold of... something. Hoping to have grabbed his wrist and gently moved it up and down.
“Hm.. well I hope it’s an arm?”
The light of a new dawn caressed the duchess every shape. And though she was short, she was quite a sight to behold.
With a smile on her face she now laid eyes upon the green-eyed, brown-haired hunk standing before her. When she could see him look back over the box she was holding, she got cold feet and hid her face by slightly lifting the box.
“Oh my… Well.. I could only hope for something good, but this?…” She thought to herself as she started to sweat slightly and got overexcited.
“Oh, his hair!.. and his smile…, those cute cheeks.. the broad shoulders.. And I’m certain he’s hiding a few rock-hard abs underneath his shirt… ”
Her face turned with a creepy smile. A mixture of mischief, romantic desire and burning passion. She looked at her feet trying to avoid eye-contact. She couldn’t let him know she liked him, that would be weird. “I hope he doesn’t think I’m weird..”
But her cheeks had turned entirely red when she realized she was staying with this handsome a man. Driving her knees closer together, she was desperately trying to change the subject and get away from this situation as fast as possible. For she knew not what she would do to him if she let her fantasies go on so uncontrolled.
"Yes... eh... Do you... eh..”

She was at a loss for words. “Room” The only thought that came to her that could really save her from this situation. Her room. She threw out the words as fast she could.

“You think I can put these in my room?”

Not waiting for an answer she, blindly, tried to run past Nick and up into her room.

“Thanks!"

She said. Not knowing she would trip at least once along the way to the door.

From the darkness she appeared without warning, her feet shuffling along the floor with all the poise and grace and speed of an undead person reanimated for some purpose or other. Sara Kimoto looked ever much like a zombie as she slowly walked out from the comfort and security of her work room. Her eyes appeared to be glazed over and her mouth was open at the corner, though mercifully no drool had managed to drip forth. How long had she been in there? There wasn't a clock and she didn't really look at her phone for the purposes of time just in case it was more than she figured; most days she knew it was night only because the faint spots of sunlight beneath the closed curtains eventually disappeared.

A tactical error was made in Sara's daily routine. It was rare to see her leave the room so shortly after entering but she had left a vital part of the process behind. Sitting on the kitchen table, right where a plate of egg had sat, was a canned beverage that was by now past the chilled state and more into the undrinkable room temperature status. Sara noted the lack of drink when she made to grab at it and only came back with air; she would've gone and gotten it earlier but she couldn't simply pause. That defeated the whole purpose. She had to finish it through even if it meant shambling out well before normal hours.

It wasn't as if anyone would be there to comment on it.

Sara stopped when she felt the crisp warmth of the outside air wafting in. Slowly her head turned towards the door, spotting the person in a much too fancy suit as well as two beings that Sara most certainly did not recognize. The people in her Circle hadn't looked like that apart from the one time one of them did a rather terrible cosplay...but besides that none of them knew where Sara lived. So it couldn't have been her Circle friends. Nor was it co-workers since no one at the magazine ever wore a suit. She didn't interact with the neighbors much but she would've remembered if her neighbor consisted of a being that seemed to be blue haired creature from some sort of...well...some other plane of being. The other woman seemed a bit more...regular but Sara still couldn't say she recognized her.

There was really only one possible explanation for this, and when the realization set in Sara's eyes opened wide - almost in a mixture of confusion and, strangely, excitement.

"Are you here to rob me?" Sara asked in her light, airy tone of voice. Her knees started to shake gently and her body trembling as well. Fear, it seemed, had gripped her. "Well...I don't have much but...just to be sure I don't run away to the police...shouldn't you tie me up nice and tight...with plenty of rope... and tell me not to move!" Her tone took on a giddy sort of glee complete with smile as she spoke about the mere idea of being robbed and tied down.

So maybe it wasn't fear that she was feeling in the moment.

Haruka

@ineffable@Argetlam350

In the dooropening stood a beautiful girl. She had long brown hairs with wonderous grey eyes. She was a tad taller then Haru so she felt a bit jealous but Haru stopped growing after she had died so that was a practical given. The girl was dressed nicely for the moment unlike Haru, now she felt somewhat bad for not having cleaned her clothes.

Haru poked out her stiff arm at the girl wanting to give her a handshake while displaying an energetic smile on her face.

"Hello nice to meet yo-"

Without a word the girl digged in and gave Haru a warm hug. Haruka was taken off guard. Haruka let out a short 'huh' staring forward not knowing what to have expected. Her skin felt so soft, her hair smelled like flowers her body was so frail and warm. But what was with this reaction. She just started hugging Haruka out of the blue. Couldn't she talk? Didn't she have any questions for her? Like how her body could be so cold or why she had a piece of paper hanging from her forehead? That was all just normal? No weird looks? Was she just a massive airhead perhaps. Or maybe she was just a little anxious and didn't know what to say? Probably the best bet. It at least showed she was happy with Haruka.

Haruka savored the nice feeling of warmth when she eventually let go and took a small step back herself. She expected for both of them to head in but that was when the corner of her eye caught a glimps of a big shadow moving towards the front door and Shau moving herself over towards the bigger shadow.

A cold sweat went over her body as her head slowly turned towards the creature behind her. Her knees softly crumbeling after having gotten a better look of it.

A terrified screech erupted over the whole neighborhood for many other monsters and their homegivers to hear. No horror movie could ever produce this good of a horrified screech.

Standing before her was a big, hairy, well endowed spider! She had never seen a spider as big as this before and that Shau just goes out of her way to hug something like this. She was paired up with a crazy person. Tears of terror filled her eyes as she watched the two of them hug around the corner of a nearby car.

"P-p-please get that thing away from me. B-back around t-two years ago a spider jumped onto my hair and I couldn't get it out... I WAS HORRIFIED. NEVER AGAIN... NEVER."

Haru sobbed for a few moments behind the car calming down a little before she got herself back towards the other two. Tears were still stuck in her eyes as she gave a continuous mad pout at the spider keeping her distance in the meantime.

Shau welcomed the two and gave a short introduction, she had already given them both a key of the house which was pretty nice of her. She was a very trusting person. Haru looked around on her own body a little to find a place where she wouldn't lose it as easily as all her other stuff. She ended up dropping it in her shoe which was probably the second best place with on first swallowing the key.

"Hmmm? I have my own room? I don't think I ever had my own room. This is already a good deal! Hehehe."

Short after getting a tour through the whole house they were left in the living room again, Shau asked what they would be wanting to do. Not a very hard question.

"Getting some spider traps and spider repellant!"

She gave a mean look at the spider again after stating that she hated spiders once more.

[KawaiiKyouko]

Niyoki

The yokai proudly stepped through the unlocked door, the hair fluttering wildly about making her seem much similar to a mad scientist. Guiding both the being of the void and the agent through the door, noticing their apparent surprise with a smile. And once inside, she started to look around the room, her eyes driving up and down the walls, along the furniture and the floor. Well, it was quite obvious that it wasn't taken care of perfectly. Well, whatever, that's something she can help with. She flashed another smile to Light and the agent, their entry had been a success! Sort of.

The sound of footsteps echoed through, her ears perking up in excitement to see whom she was to live with moving forward. Tilting her head, her eyes almost preying, her body bending slightly forward while her arms stood out, making her seem similar to a scarlet velociraptor on the hunt. Her grin mischievous and her eyes searching as the footsteps came closer and closer. Was she playing around?

Finally the form made it's entrance, her eyes immediately inspecting the person in front of her while noticing her own studies of the group. Well, she wasn't sure if she should feel disappointed, but one thing was certain; This woman is more zombie than human. As if all life had been drained from her, as notified by the heavy bags under her eyes and her shabby clothing. Niyo fluttered her eyes lightly as the woman spoke up, and in utter confusion she simply tilted her body sideways while peering onto her. Rob? Niyo did not know that word. Tie her up? Niyo wouldn't do that. Why does she suddenly seem so full of life? Niyo was happy about that atleast.

The agent took the word before either Niyo or Light could speak up, a short cough followed by his echoing, manly voice, giving the suited man with his sunshades actually seem like a person and not just a pillar of black. "Miss Kimoto.. We're not here to rob you or... indulge in your perversions." He opened up. Seems like he was quite the people-knower, this one. "Do you not remember you applied to be a houseowner for demi-human beings, in our program to unite our species? That is why we are here." He shook his head, he was aware that this specific houseowner was... lazy and messy, but this was on another level. "Check the date. Either way, I'm just gonna drop these two off here, alright? This blue thing here is Light, a creature of the void. And this one is a yokai, Niyoki, more specifically a Futakuchi-Onna. Take good care of them. Bye."

How abrupt. He up and left afterwards, leaving Niyo blinking in even more confusion. She slowly turned back to the woman, offering a shy smile before nodding. "Watashi wa namae.... etto... wait... Engrish, yes yes. I is Niyo, ettooo... tomodachi yes?" She frowned lightly, she knew this was horrible English.. considering it was a mixture of Japanese and English. And suddenly, she began shaking her head rather violently as if fighting some possessive spirit, before stopping up, her expression all changed with a devious smirk on her lips. "Fuck that Noyi, I'm Yoki. You'll be my personal pet from now on, both of you." She said in perfect English. She grinned.

Aela Theraphos

Aela watched as her host first hugged the corpse who's name was Haruka. At least there host seemed to be nice but she had not been ready to receive such a reception as well. Aela was somewhat dumbfounded by the sudden hug around one of her front legs, while happy to see that her host wasn't absolutely terrified of her she had thought it might be some time before such an interaction would happen. Things were going better then she expected, at least until the walking corpse Haruka caused everything to come crashing down.

A piercing shriek broke the nice introductions, with Haruka running off to be behind some car while shouting some odd tale of why she was terrified of Aela and seemingly spider's in general. It seemed this house stay would be tougher then Aela thought now she was trapped with someone who was terrified of her.
'I wonder if anyone would mind if I got rid of her,' Aela thought ignoring most of the corpse's sobbing. Eventually Haruka came back though she seemed to keep her distance from Aela.

Their guardian introduced herself as Shau and gave them a nice tour of her apartment after giving them their own keys to the apartment. Aela decided it best to put the key somewhere safe, unfortunately she had no pockets and unlike the corpse had no need for shoes. She swiftly put it between her well endowed assets embarrassingly when no one was looking making a mental note to make clothes with pockets in the foreseeable future. She quickly then scuttled after Shau and Haruka as the tour began of Shau's home. Aela assumed that the program helped renovate the place to allow monsters like her to be able to walk around with relative ease. She had to say they did do a rather nice job. It was nice to see she would have her room, at least she could get away from Haruka and had a place to do her knitting in peace if her aggression got to great to handle.

Once the tour was completed Shau had turn to both of Aela and Haruka to ask what they had wish to do. Honestly Aela was uncertain what she would of liked to do. Being new to the city she did not know much on what could be done there. Of course Haruka made a suggestion that took every ounce of control for Aela not to bite the corpse and paralyze her while simultaneously ripping her limb from limb.

'Not biting the corpse is going to be tough,' Aela thought irritably after Haruka's rather rude suggestion.

"Perhaps we should also buy a shovel to dig a hole for the corpse while we are at it as well," added Aela sarcastically looking at Haruka ",That and and air freshener to purge the air of rotting flesh."

Aela then cleared her throat and did a few deep breaths to calm herself down before she did something to drastic like throwing Haruka through a wall or tieing her up to the cieling."Forgive me for the outburst. I know very little of this city so what would you suggest Shau?"

[GarlandChaos]

Melissa felt a little confused when she heard the nice lady give her name. Charles? She had heard the name Charlotte or even Charlie before for females, but Charles was a bit too...masculine. Oh well; she didn't want to be rude, so Melissa didn't comment about it.

"Good bye, Mr. Agent!" Melissa called after the agent as he left, sending him off with a wave. "Miss Urdien will take very good care of me! I'll make sure of it!~" She giggled, taking a sip of grape juice. It tasted quite lovely, even if it was just your normal, everyday fruit juice. "Thank you for the drinks, Miss Urdien," Melissa thanked as the young lady grabbed a set of files, presumably about Melissa herself.

However, she wasn't quite prepared for what Charles would say next. She was a man? Well, the name kind of hinted at that, but the make up and whatnot said otherwise. Oh well. "My apologies, Mr. Urdien," the ghost apologized, bowing apologetically. "Your outfit had me confused, and..." Melissa then shook her head and cleared her throat. "A-Anyway. For our first outing, how about we go to a museum? I'd feel right at home, what with all the priceless artifacts and whatnot." She giggled, taking another sip of her grape juice.

@KatherinWinter

Kimiko looked her new housemate up and down assessing him. He wasn't half bad, nice guy to boot. She's definitely going to have fun teasing this one. "Alright Zachy it is, you can call me Kimi." She giggled softly to herself as she jumped at him giving him a tight hugging embrace. "Any room I want?! You're the best I'm going to go look now and pick right away!" She put no effort into hiding her excitement that was shining through in her speech and her posture as she walked into the house shaking her hips lightly. Her bright red yukata has white rose patterns adorned all over that accentuate her figure nicely.

As she wondered the halls looking around at various rooms her large fluffy tails swaying back and forth behind her making it difficult to get around her if one were to try. She stopped at the last room in the hall and opened the door peering inside curiously. Much to her surprise it was a rather large room, perfect for the decorations she intended to fill the room with. She turned back down the hall and proclaimed loudly. "I'll take this one! When can we go and buy all the wonderful things I want to decorate it with?"

[Archmage MC]

Well the effect of Ms. Yokai doing a bit of breaking and entering, without much of the breaking, had the effect Light figured it would. Sure the 'host' that the two ladies were given didn't look like much. Heck, they looked to have some massive lethargy! And considering that, from the looks of it they had just got up, they didn't even notice the suits escorting the two monster ladies, instead thinking she was going to get robbed or something.

And before she could make a joke, starting to point her thumb at one of the suits, the suits jumped in and explained things to the probably caffeine deprived host. Explaining the basic origin of both her and the Yokai, then departing without even waiting for the host to reply and leaving them at the mercy of both Light and Niyo. Echoing Light's confusion at the situation, Niyo went off and started to jabber in her native language, then after failing, her expression changing as well as her tone, started to speak pure english.

And what she said wasn't the nicest of things, especially considering how dramatically her expression shifted. Looking at Niyo, who was calling herself Yoki now with a suspicious look, Light said. "Yeah no. I'm not going to be a pet. You could've said something like 'playthings' or something to be cuter you know." Even if this was some kind of dual personallity sorta thing, Light would have to keep an eye on this yokai. Especially considering how squishy the host is in comparison to herself.

@liferusher@Argetlam350

Shau

Her monster tenants looked relatively happy with their placements and she was glad. Well, as glad as she could be until they both started throwing death threats at each other (who knew monsters could get so creative and sassy in their insults?). Shau was used to seeing this at the university, in human form of course. She saw it almost all the time and so it didn't shock her that her two newest friends would show some sort of wariness towards each other. After all, one of them was a huge (albeit fluffy) spider and the other was what seemed to be a lifeless corpse. Maybe a zombie?

She acknowledged Aela's apology with a small nod and smile. It was good that her newfound friends were both in different rooms or else she would probably hear screaming from Haruka all night as well as insults from Aela.
Shau turned to address Haruka.
"Now Haruka, I know that Aela here might scare you ever so slightly but she is a good person! And isn't she cute? You shall not be afraid of her, she won't bite, I'm sure. And you yourself seems like a lovely lady. All of us will be very good friends soon!" She tried to give an encouraging smile. They both were very different than what she had been used to after all.
"As for what we should do there's a lot of things! If you guys need anything extra then by all means we can go shopping! Or we can explore the town and say hi to the other people in the exchange program! There's a lot of things to do in the city and I hope we can do them all!"

Thinking about it, Shau had never seen any of the other people involved in the program. If her monsters were weird for her then probably there was a lot more monsters who were even weirder than she thought so.
But after all, she had gotten the better end of the deal. Both of these girls seemed very sweet and they had very different personalities as well. It would be fun getting to know them!

This was more than a little surprising to be sure - and Sara was almost disappointed that it wasn't some sort of robbery-slash-hostage situation; how often did those happen to the every day person? Sure she had heard of the demi-human thing, or as it was known among people she knew the 'monster in the closet system' (and that was one of the more..friendly terms used) but she hadn't signed up for it. As far as she knew the people that willingly participated were in need of some extra living expenses or else had some other, often more private reasons for doing so. Sara didn't especially need the extra money given her spending habits consisted mostly of perishable goods and electric bills with the extra being used for her collection and supplies, and no matter what people assumed or knew about Sara the nature of her particular interests didn't necessitate demi-humans.

"There must be some mistake," Sara shook her head, the unkempt strands sliding along her forehead, "I didn't sign up for-wait I don't have a perversion!" Though she protested to the agent, in actuality she was protesting to air as the suited man had left without so much as an instructional manual. That her face was still blushing red at the mention of her non-existent perversion was a fact lost on her.

Sara took a glance at the two guests - now residents - and then at the room they were all standing in. The front room, or the living room, was fairly spartan. A simple couch that could sit four, a television atop a stand which contained various books and film cases. A coffee table inbetween couch and television with the only thing on there being a half-full tray of various nuts, almonds, pecans, walnuts, things for the rare guest to be tricked into thinking Sara had people over often enough. On the wall were various pieces of art, none of which cost more than thirty dollars and only two of which were done by Sara herself - they were the two that stood out and didn't fit with the aesthetic of the other pieces which were countryside and seaside scenes. The kitchen was connected to the living room and the kitchen itself was connected to the dining room. The hall to the left was Sara's territory with her bedroom with connected bathroom, and her work room across the way. The hall to the right was currently being used as storage, but it had a bathroom and a bedroom as well.

Sara was quite glad she kept a mostly spartan life since the house was shockingly clean. She might've been easily absorbed into whatever went down in her work room, but she wasn't living in a pigsty and she was shockingly hygienic in that she took regular showers. This was likely not her best first impression but in her defense she had no idea to expect something like this.

"Uhm..." Sara blinked and stared blankly as Niyo spoke; Sara had Japanese ancestry on her mother's side but she wasn't exactly fluent conversationally yet. She had once thought to take the proficiency exam but her hobby got the better of her at a crucial moment. "I'm...Sara Kimoto. I...didn't know you were coming...uh..." This was awkward. Did host families prepare speeches? Wait, did Niyo have a second voice? Sara turned her eyes to the one who called herself Yoki. Sara lurched forward, her fingers gripping the back of the couch to keep herself from fainting in delight. "P..P...Pet?" Her blush increased, and her expression morphed from panic and confusion to utter joy. Surely signs of the 'perversion' the agent mentioned. "M...Miss Yoki...how wonderful...Did you hear that, Lighty? P...P...Pet! Is there anything you need Miss Yoki? Come in, come in, both of you!"

Maybe this wouldn't be so bad for Sara.

[Aka]

He watched her as she acted in what he would see as a normal matter. Well so long as you would put in sitting in a room with a man who for the most part dressed up like a woman in order to see the torment of others to be normal. Hell, he wasn't limited to just that as he would figure out other ways. But in the end it was merely of his own sick pleasure of people shutting down and dying on the inside. Their fear was so fun. Of course...there was the occasional one who would be all ready for it either way. He'd have to dissuade those types in a different way. He watched the ghost woman carefully as she spoke. Her regal and means seeming to be something set by her own standards maybe? He truly didn't know. Not that it matter.

He dropped the files on the desk before unbuttoning his shirt a bit and leaned forward, his hands sliding on the table as he pulled his entire self on it. His eyes looking at her as his hair fell down more over his back and shoulders, hanging mid air, even some of it touching the table from it's length. He bit down on his lower lip as he moved towards her closer. Keeping eye contact as he breathed slightly heavily. Though moved to change his voice back to his more female sounding form. “Would you rather me as a woman or,” moving to return his voice back to man he came as close as he could to her without forcing her to do anything. “A man?” It must have seemed odd though he was aware of all the make up he put on that he didn't really take off. He had natural long eye lashes, but that didn't help out either. And he would compose himself in more female like stances but that didn't just make him that way. He swayed his hips lightly side to side as he moved closer to her. “I'm sure the museum will be Q-U-I-T-E T-H-E T-R-I-P” He whispered the ending lightly into her ear, his hair possibly brushing up against her arm if it was still where it was originally. He had moved around the cups, but he didn't care to much about dropping them so long as they fell down away from his house guest.

Niyoki

A soft snicker escaped the yokai's mouth while examining the host and her failed attempt at responding to Mr. Suitman, as Yoki dubbed him. Her eyes' judgmental, crude yet oddly mesmerizing gaze danced across Sara's blossomed face, as well as noting her pose. As if molded perfectly to be this yokai's little slave from birth, her masochistic tendencies were quite... obvious. That also means this sadistic bitch of a yokai could push her to the limits, she thought. Her trademark smirk appeared again.

Although Yoki was never the most interested in houses and furniture, well interior in general, she did pry an eye across the living area. Be it a gentle curiosity to her new home or, perhaps, a search for potential items to abuse a certain lazy homeowner, one could not know. The artsy stuff was Noyi's thing, not Yoki, and she just shruged at the sight. Well, it was in general a normal house.

Prying her eyes filled with mischief towards Light while her incredibly long, scarlet hair rose up in the air, a confident smirk on her lips. A stray lashed forward towards the void creature, only to gently and softly caress her cheek while softly muttering "Humm..." Retracting her hair afterwards, her middle finger and thumb crashing together, a soft snapping sound escaping. Her expression did not change, her body arching forward while her index finger raised up to her own lips. "Playthings...? Hmm~ I suppose Ms. Light could be my plaything~" She mused softly, her index finger entering her mouth before pulling out a stray of saliva, gently tapping it on the creature's forehead. Not soon after, her eyes dashed sideways to her new pet, her all too confident and foul smirk never fading from sight.

The sight of her new toy so flourished at her chosen words made her nod appreciatively, Indeed, pet. You will call me Goddess, and when Noyi's around you damn better call her a useless piece of shit. Quite similar to what you are, I'm sure. Introductions are done, verbal abuse is now greenlit for action. She did after all seem so turned on that it's only a matter of time before Sara needs to change both underwear and pants. Wouldn't surprise Yoki, after all.

Nodding in turn, she wrapped her hair around the arm of Light, gently pulling her along after Sara showed them in. Again her eyes lazily examined the area before settling on the couch, and before anything else she leaped down on it, laying across it with her arms wrapped behind her back and her legs crossed. Peering up at the two while she settled in to this new house as fast as a sexually frustrated cougar downtown would hit on the numerous boys, her smirk still lingering. "As for what I want... Lunch, perhaps some white bread and fried eggs, sunny side up, with tomato beans and bacon. I'd also like a cold drink, perhaps some good sake if you have that? If not you'll have to run out and buy it, of course. Afterwards, I'd like you to give me a footrub. Oh, ask ms. Light what she needs as well, you dumb bitch~"

Nick's House

----------------

Nick was very much confused as Dolores took her time answering him. She also hid her face which made him think she was pretty shy. It was also possible he was so ugly that she couldn't bare to look at him. Nick didn't think he was that ugly but beauty was in the eye of the beholder after all.

"Yes... eh... Do you... eh.. You think I can put these in my room? Thanks!”

Dolores Dutchlanders

And after squeezing those words out, Dolores bolted away. Well, tried to anyway for in her haste, she lost mind of her footing and tripped to the floor. "Hey! Are you all right?!" A concerned Nick asked, quickly moving to help Dolores back to her feet.

"Why don't we calm down for a moment?" Nick smiled at Dolores to try and stabilize the situation. "We're not in any rush or anything and I'm not going to bite."

Haruka

@ineffable@Argetlam350

As they were about to enter the house a cold shiver went down Haru her spine, as white as a zombie Haru glanced back at Aela feeling as if she was planning to do something to her. Haru could see a wicked smile and sinister eyes if it wasn't her imagination. Haru slowly turned her gaze straight ahead again while taking a big gulp as if she wouldn't survive long living in this house. Surviving the first night would be her top priority right now.

The spider had suggested to buy a shovel while they were at it to burry poor Haruka. This spider was getting quite mean too. Haru gritted her teeth as her foot lightly tapped the ground. Her eyes widened as Aela told her she was also stinking like rotten flesh.

"You stink like an old shed baka 6 eyes! I wash myself everyday so my skin doesn't smell rotten!"

Haru folded her arms and faced the other way with a mad pout on her face. She might have the biggest mouth but is still the youngest of the three. Her child like tendecies haven't disappeared over the years.

Shau tried cheering her up by saying that Aela wasn't such a bad spider and that she wouldn't hurt her in the slightest. Shau still ended up praising Aela and Haru both but Haru didn't think that spider was all that cute. She looked horrifying to Haru, enormous big hairy legs which could probably easily kill her. Instead of two she had four eyes. No she couldn't make out what was cute about that. With a bit of a regrettable look she faced Shau.

"I'll try..."

Haru looked back at Aela for a moment and pulled down her eyelid while sticking a tongue out of her mouth giving Aela quite a mocking look. Haru tried stopping with the mocking for a mere moment as Shau asked them both what they would have wanted to do.

"I don't really need anything and preffer to stay in the shadow during the day but we can go someplace close or indoors I guess."
