[ Anyone walking near House 6 might find a pair of feet sticking out from under the porch, swaying in time to some inaudible melody. Investigate further, and you'll find a pretty cozy little home under there. The floor is covered in worn, old gym mats that have been cleaned, and blankets and pillows cover the entirety of the place, creating a warm, comfortable nest. The 'ceiling' is a kaleidoscope of thread, scraps of fabric, and other odds and ends that have been carefully hung. Beth herself is lying on her back, embroidering a thin piece of old fabric. It could be a bracelet, or necklace. Or it could be just a way to pass the time, who really knows.
When she spots anyone curious enough to look into her home she stills and gives a lazy wave. Once her shitty needle is tucked into the fabric, she sets it aside and pulls out her device to type out a greeting.
Every so often the words that appear on the screen are garbled nonsense. ]
There something you need?

[ A milenia alone has turned Beth into somewhat of a gremlin when it comes to manners. She's used to spending her time people watching, and so on slow days that leave her restless, she wanders out to do just that. Which often means she can be found places she isn't really supposed to be. Like people's homes, poking around in people's things, or just sitting around watching people.
She's not trying to be an inconsiderate, breaking-and-entering demon woman, but it's been a real long time since she's had to worry about anything resembling tact, manners, or boundaries.
If someone approaches her with irritation, she'll sometimes flicker out of existence for a fraction of a second before reappearing as though nothing had happened at all. ]

[ Beth takes her job patroling pretty seriously. Now, she's not entirely sure what she's supposed to be on the lookout for, and she's not...exactly a beefy lady, but she still keeps her eyes peeled just in case she runs into something suspicious. She's never really sure how to talk to the people she's assigned to patrol with, though. She's used to talking at people (and being kind of shitty because they can't hear her) so talking to people is...well, something to be reacquainted with.
What are conversations even. How do they work, how do you start one??? ]
Gossip?
[ A+, nailed it. ]

Then he walks back past it, glancing with his eyes but not really seeing.
Then, seconds later, he comes tripping backwards.]
Ah-
[He catches himself just in time, swallowing back the sound. Instead, he signs the best he can.]
What?
[He wanted to say, "What the heck are you doing?" but he doesn't know all the signs. But he knows this girl isn't a resident of House 5, and he definitely knows she isn't Noctis.]
no subject
She looks up at Prompto, sort of half-shrugs, and signs back at him; ]
Hi.
[ Okay so it's maybe not the greatest response to someone catching you doing a b&e.
She fishes her device out of a pocket.]
Just passin through.
[ YOu know.
Your house.
nBD ]
sorry for the late!
just passing through our house??
[Because seriously girl.]
C have u met them
his screen lights up just as he falls into step with her and he doesn't bother preventing the lopsided smile the one word message gets. ] how do you think kylo ren got his scar?
no subject
He's the pale, loner lookin boy, right?
[ The best part about watching people is that even if you don't know them, you usually know OF them. Especially if you're a gremlin that figuratively looks through people's trash. Anyway, since she can't hum thoughtfully, she over-exaggerates some "I'm thinking" poses. Hand to her chin, finger to her temple. It's like a professor Layton puzzle solved gif over here. ]
You know those toys that are like aeroplanes but not? With the big propeller on top? [ She means helicopters. ] I think he got smacked in the face with a fancy one and couldn't handle the shame. Went all dark and broody to cover it up.
[ Says the grown ass woman rocking dark clothes and combat boots. ]
no subject
[ only one creepy loner with a scar through his face, really. even before she gets to the punchline, her poses are killing him. frank nudges gently at her arm with his massive elbow. she's 2 much ]
a helicopter?? [ stop it. ] i think he has a spaceship.
[ frank isn't one who can talk about dark-and-broody types either, dressed in his black jumpsuit, a black hoodie and cap, and tall black combat boots of his own. but that won't actually stop him either. ]
no subject
[ She's had no reason to know what the fuck a helicopter was before now. People went apeshit when Airplanes were first a thing. Not so much with helicopters. But she files that word away so she knows wtf it is if it comes up again. ]
He's got a spaceship? He doesn't seem the NASA type.
[ He doesn't even have one of those bubble helmets. Lame. ]
no subject
see when i see that scar i think one thing: he got his ass kicked by a girl. [ his gaze slides over to catch her reaction. ]
