Characters: Nepeta Leijon (OU) and open!
Setting: Around room 2-07 and the dormitories.
Format: Action preferred, but I can go either way.
Summary: Nepeta's new to the tower, so time to look around.
Warnings: Mentions of death, probably not much else.

[The act of waking up is a strange one when you don't expect to wake up at all. Freaking out is also mitigated when you're stuck still in--what is this, a human bed?--for half a minute before you can get up. It gives Nepeta the chance to, if not calm completely, get a push on the way there, and also realize she's not in pain anymore. But then what is this place? It doesn't look like the lab, and again, she's pretty sure she didn't have something soft to lay on when her eyes first closed.]

[Once her limbs decide they can move again, though, she's up instantly. Three things come quickly to her attention: the collar around her neck (which gets some pokes, prods, and tugs before she gives up on removing it), then the two letters. Being told her world has been destroyed is no news at all - Alternia is already pretty much gone! - but the rest is unexpected. This is a place to live. There's things here to help in that. And again, most importantly, she's alive.]

[So what does this mean for everyone else? It's a stab to the gut to think back on what happened to Equius, and she can't stop a sharp hiss at the thought of Gamzee potentially being here. But if they could save her, maybe, just maybe, they could save her friends too.]

[After one last delay spent checking the contents of her trunk, she's out the door to get an idea of this place. Her nerves aren't totally settled; her feet carry her light and careful through the halls of the dormitories. For all she wants to see who's here, she can't afford not to be wary.]

[The unusually vicious streak in the sweet girl's voice is enough to halt Gamzee right in his wobbly tracks. The clown's sudden stop might have been considered quite comical if not for the strained circumstances, although he still had no idea why she seemed so defensive. It almost scared him. Fuck, it did scare him. Was she all right? Maybe one of the monsters here had frightened her?

That seemed unlikely. Nepeta was a fierce huntress, powerful enough to take down most of those ferocious beasts with her bare claws. Gamzee was pretty slow, but the idea that something as trivial as that had gotten her freaked out this badly was a stretch, even to him.

He wasn't... really sure how to respond to her unexpected belligerence, so his expression changed slowly, lazily as he tilted his head in confusion. Surprise, befuddlement, anxiety, concern. They flashed across his moronic painted face as he stood a few feet away from her, rooted obediently in his spot.

Or, as obedient as he could be with such a short attention span. A smile quickly returned to his face. Maybe this was a joke? She'd always been into that pretendy shit, hadn't she? Was she putting on her warkitty persona in a playful (albeit not-so-playful) greeting? As he eagerly reassured himself of this, he stepped forward. Slower this time, to be sure, but reaching an arm out to her as he approached.]


Heyyyy, kitty. Time all the fuck out for a quick motherfuckin' blink while I'm all to be like, gettin' my wicked greet on of a girl! 'Cause a brother haven't all to been seeing at her in a motherfucking while, yeah?
