MUZZLE AND MUTE [Okay, no one is okay with this right? That's Aaron's first real thought after it became easy to have thoughts again. First the room with dust that clouded his senses and his mind. Then the new clothes. Weird, new clothes. Who wears jump suits? Aaron does, obviously.
The device is special. Something a bit too futuristic for his tastes. The woman's doing sign language, right? He knows that's a thing though he doesn't quite know if that's actually what she's doing. The device is kind enough to translate. He wants to patronize whatever spider is behind this but he leaves it be. Getting his one question out of the way he takes a breath and decides to see just how much self control he truly has.
Out in the town he walks along the sand, bare feet presses in and he moves like a man ready to sprint, ready to bolt or chase. He doesn't though. Seeing others look at their devices it takes him an embarrassingly long time before he realizes he should check his. Oh, rules. More rules. Great.
Reading the rules, mesmerized by the lit screen, he doesn't quite what where he is going or who he is walking into.]
MAN IN THE HAT part 1 (House 3 prompt!) [Aaron finds his new home and plays along to see just what this town has. As far as furnishings go he's not too picky. All he wants is something not too hard to sleep on and something to put his belongings in. Oh, and a mirror. He's not vein, they're just so very useful. For a lanky young man he's got a lot of energy.
Oh, and he's going to be bad with personal space, making his way to the other rooms and seeing who else is in this with him. Might as well make friends, he's going to have to apologize to some of them later if he loses his patience. So for now he's greeting his house mates with a big smile and a friendly wave. He'll even flail his hands around trying to portray that he will aid them with moving things.]
MAN IN THE HAT part 2 (Party prompt!) [Aaron finds the memento that seems most useful to him. There's a piece of rose quartz hanging on a wax coated string. He plucks it from the pile, watches it sway on the end of the cord and pockets it quickly. Good. Good start.
The party itself is really, really lame. Aaron has really crappy dance moves but he doesn't seem to care. He's careful not to jostle anything too much but he has fun with it. It's going to take some getting used to socializing through text. Aaron's never even had a cell phone. Still, he's starting to pick up how the natives communicate and mimics some of their styles.
Jarred pickles are fine but he's going to avoid following a strange man in a hat to his home. That just doesn't seem like his sort of party.]
SOUND EATERS part 1 (Closed to Ivor Grames!) [Paired up and set to task? Okay, not really what he wanted to do but for now he needs to get a feel for this place. Which means trying to blend in a little until he knows just how to work it. So that means going on patrol with the person they put him with.
While taking stock of his surroundings and trying his best to find something that might be out of place to the townsfolk, he tries small "talk" with Ivor. Playing with the messenger, using the practice he got the night before, he starts with an easy question.]
So, Toto. How far do you think we are from Kansas?
SOUND EATERS part 2 (Everyone | Town Hall) [Well, this dampens Aaron's mood noticeably.
Risk himself? Sure.
He's bound to survive somehow. It might not be pretty but he'll survive.
Risk a stranger whose only crime was having Aaron arrive in their town? Not so much.
So Aaron keeps his voice down while greeting people but even his usual easy smile is absent at the moment as he's forced to really think on this one. Ghosts. He should be able to fight ghosts right? But he might be wrong. He's fast but not super fast. He's still not sure what room reset means and though that's curious he's not going to risk killing innocent people over this. Instead he tries to meet as many people as he can while his voice is still usable.]
