The lanky guy, until recently busy with reading a book gruesomely titled "Death Planet" - though he has barely made it through the first twenty pages - violently jerked at the unexpected sound, dropped his reading material on the floor and quickly sat up, his slightly elongated head swinging from side to side on the thin twig of a neck made to look a bit thicker by his collar, with long and glossy hair flailing around and hitting him on his... face Yes, for a lack of better word, this one would've had to do. Quickly noticing the presence of a new face and noting the lack of hostile intent, the eerily spider-like man - one could only hope that nature didn't do such cruel things to a girl - calmed down and smiled - if a display of thin, long and incredibly manifold teeth could be called a smile - before quietly chuckling and mimicking the newcomer's gesture with his own hand. An unproportionately long limb unfolded into the air in a way that could make a less vary observer think that it had more than one elbow, and two slightly twitching, milky white and nail-less digits protruded upwards from a clenched fist.
As if to drive some uncertain point further, the ugly, emaciated guy shook his hand in the air a bit before finally replying to the greeting with proper words - his voice was thin and high, though not quite reaching for contratenor, and very slightly, almost unnoticeably undulating:
"Oh joy!" Man's right hand finally came down from the air and connected with the other one to produce a singular loud clap, signifying his happiness.
"Someone wants to make friends!" "I'm glad that you're so happy. Don't be a sad little thing like me. But don't be a gruff and rough meanie either." He briefly paused, thinking of how to continue the conversation.
"Oh, should i wish you a happy birthday? That's what friends do!" - Somehow, Ψ noted to himself, he knew that it was exactly the thing good friends wished to their friends. Strange, really - for him, his birth's day wasn't very happy. On the contrary, it was sort of sad and filled with things and events he did not found at all acceptable or right. Still, he knew that a Birthday was always Happy - two words went hand in hand.
"Happy Birthday, uh...""Freishutz! Freishutz? Free... lock? Rifleman? What does that mean?"
