Viviana was deep in her studies when she heard a knock and a voice at the door. Startling her much more than anticipated. Her practice was going no where fast, not aided by her verbal impediment and the lingering thought of that very rude man and his comments. She was no wizened adult herself, but how human society could see such a person as mature simply by way of years was beyond her. She placed her notebook face down on the bed and turned to answer the door, making sure her face hid as much of her frustration and embarrassment as possible.
"Oh, that sounds lovely thank you!" Despite the chirpiness in her voice, the gratitude as genuine as she had the ability to be, hints of confusion could not be fully suppressed. From their voice to their... appearance, this person seems incredibly odd, impossible to pin down in a multitude of ways. This was one of the people she passed earlier, and she was still unsure as to if they are a man or a woman. Either way, they at least seemed nicer and more understanding than that 'Wheelo' fellow.
She clutched somewhat to the door way as she stepped aside to allow access to the room. "You can come in or you could show me out there, which ever you are more comfortable with... there is no one else in here in case you were wondering," Something about this one's presence left her more at peace, even as their appearance seemed to scream in the face of everything her family stood for. In contrast to her own simple, very conservative clothing, this person seemed beyond brazen, brash to the point of eliciting embarrassment from those who themselves were quite concealed. People like her.
"My name is Viviana by the way, what is your name?"
