... Would you like help with that or shall I assume you've got it under control?

[ Primrose is just lightly placing a dagger (sheathed) on her bed, having glanced over to see this maneuver. ]

I'm fine.

[Automatically, but she doesn't seem that fine. I mean, she can lift it, but it's awkward. Eventually, she lays the sword down on one side of the bed. Why.]

[ vira doesn't seem to have any weapons on her, except presumably a kitchen knife. instead, she just watches this display from where she's sitting. ]

...Are you planning on leaving that there? I'm sure there's space in the closet.

I'd prefer to keep it with me.

[Though as soon as she sets the sword down, she has to stop to catch her breath; she looks oddly winded and a little ill.]

Oh. But there are three of us, and only two beds.

Perhaps you should sit down.

[ She's already stepping forward, in case she needs steadying. Though-- ]

Also, I don't mind sharing a bed. I believe I oughtn't kick.

[ Shouldn't she use a lighter weapon if this one affects her so...? There's probably more to it. Vira nods along. ]

Ah, yes—I am fine with sharing our accommodations as well. I can be a fitful sleeper, but on those nights I'm happy to sleep on the couch.

I'm all right. The sword is cursed, but I'm afraid I'm attached to it.

[So. That's fun for everyone. Anyway, she's relieved to hear that - she hasn't felt safe sleeping alone for some time now. Even if these girls are strangers, their presence will help.]

I don't mind sharing, either. I'm accustomed to sharing with my - my sister. However, if neither of you mind, I've a preference for the bed in the loft.

I've no real preference, so that suits me fine. More importantly...

[ Uh. ]

Is this a particularly dangerous curse your sword holds?

[ Sharing a bed is something she'll need to get used to, and these two seem all right. But... curse??? Girl?? Vira shoots her a dubious look. ]

Will it harm either of us if we stay near?

It may be dangerous, but it won't harm either of you. Only I have ever been affected by it.

[Hmm.]

Still, I'd prefer neither of you touch it all the same.

I'm not in the habit of touching other people's personal belongings as it stands, so you needn't fear that much. Will you be all right?

[ GIRL YOU JUST SAID IT WAS DANGEROUS ]

[ harrow? harrow?? she makes no move to get her hands all over this horrible cursed sword, though she puts on a thin, serious frown. ]

It seems to cause you hardship. Must you keep it so near you?

I must, I'm afraid.

[So that's that.]

I have an attachment to it. But I will be all right.

If you insist... [ She's still slightly concerned, but surely this girl knows what she's talking about at this point. ]

[ she takes another look at the sword, biting back a sigh. ]

Very well. You can keep it on your side of the bed, and we will divide ourselves into rooms as necessary. I doubt space will be an issue—these beds are clearly designed to be large enough for company.

[ there's so much sex stuff around ]

Of course. I wish to be of no trouble to either of you. Let's make the best of our shared living arrangements.

Ah, on the subject of that... are we intending for company to be had?

[ Might as well address that now. ]

[ they're adults, they can talk about this. she hums. ]

I wasn't intending on it anytime soon. But you two can do as you please, of course.

[She's a little embarrassed, but would like to be as casual as the two others girls.]

Likewise. . . I had no intentions, but I wouldn't be troubled by it. I would prefer if no one were to stay overnight unless I'm told beforehand.

Agreed. We can inform the others beforehand, and then the one bringing someone into the room can have the room with the door.

[ For. Obvious reasons. ]

That sounds like an excellent arrangement.

[ and now they can go without ever talking about this again. next on the roommate agenda... ]

Ah, right—she shouldn't cause any problems, but I arrived with a... [ a thoughtful pause ] a friend. She shouldn't cause any trouble, but if she alarms you, please feel free to shoo her away.

[ as though knowing she's being talked about, from behind harrow pokes out a curious creature, not much larger than a cat, slowly extending her tentacles(?) out to poke these new and exciting people. ]

[She's a little startled when the creature comes out, but her surprise turns to interest. She isn't an animal(?) person and doesn't have the instinct to reach out her hand or introduce herself; she just watches it.]

What is she?

[ Primrose watches her, a little cautiously... before she extends a finger to let the tentacle prod at her hand.

She's honestly wondering the same thing, so she has nothing to add here. ]

In our world, we would call her a primal.

[ she'll spare them the lore in their casual roomie hangout time. she taps her cheek. ]

But here, she's not so different from... a cat, I suppose...? The most she requires is pets. You can call her Luminiera.

[ lumi prods back, before circling primrose excitedly at the attention. ]

She shouldn't cause any trouble, and likewise I would like to be a conscientious roommate to you both. For who's to say how long we may be staying here?

[She'll follow Primrose's lead, reaching out to let her touch a finger.]

I'm sure she'll be no trouble.
