{01} Intro
Characters: Aphrodi and whoever he bumps into!
Setting: Room 1-18 for most of the morning, everywhere else in the afternoon
Format: Action, but I can match!
Summary: enter obligatory confused!introduction! And perhaps a little bit of sulking around since he doesn't want to be here.
Warnings: teeny reference to death, possibly language and um, that's it for now. Will update if needed!
[Room 1-18]
[ The first thought that pops into Aphrodi's head when he wakes up and finds he can't move is that, damn, he's dead again. The fact that he even had to wake up in the first place was a huge giveaway to something weird having happened but once the sleep paralysis passes, things stop making sense.
He can get up. So he's... still kind of alive. Okay, that's always a good thing. Aphrodi tugs at his collar a few times to try and get it off but it refuses to budge. That's not so okay. It's not the kind of thing he usually wears, and plus its implications are rather scary to think about (being owned by something is certainly not what he planned to do in his remaining days on Earth. Or not Earth, it seems). And then he sees the notes, which makes things even more not-okay, and then he starts to panic a little.
So, fellow dwellers of Room 1-18, you have yourselves +1 roommate (still in the clothes he woke up in) currently obsessively brushing his hair, generally being jittery and pacing the room and some feathers scattered about. He tried to pick them up at first and put them on a pile on his bed but gave up. ]
[Everywhere Else]
[ Aphrodi managed to calm himself down by the time the afternoon rolled around and finally got himself dressed into something more casual -- although the collar is still annoying and wouldn't come off, so it's covered with a scarf that only kind of matches the outfit. He's stomping around and trying to memorise every single room and corridor that he comes across.
Not to mention he's kicking a soccer ball around because he finds that dribbling it helps keep him grounded when he's in a situation where he has no idea what else to do; what better than to keep on doing what's familiar? He'd already thanked whatever gods (and himself, of course) brought his soccer ball along with the rest of his stuff.
...He's not being too observant, so if he does bump into someone or kick the ball at them a little too hard, it's completely on accident. ]

[ Okay fine. Aphrodi holds out a few locks of his hair for Sea to touch because clearly he's a hands-on learner. It's supershiny and soft because he
spends far too long on ittakes care of it well. ]no subject
... Why would you want to make your hair better?
It's just hair.
no subject
Because it's.... better? Hair is part of your appearance, and appearances should be kept and nurtured so that you're always looking your best.
no subject
[How has Aphrodi not noticed that this kid doesn't have the best appearance. Covered in tiny battle scars, and thanks to the lack of power this last month, he's not that clean. And he's underfed, too...]
I mean, I guess if you want to impress someone, but... I don't know.
It seems like it takes too much time, to me!
no subject
I guess it just feels good to know that I'm looking my best? It isn't necessarily for impressing people -- being at your best also boosts your own psyche!
no subject
[He leans back, arms crossed as he thinks that over.]
... I guess that makes sense...
But it still takes too long, doesn't it?
no subject
It doesn't matter if it takes long. In fact, if it takes a long time, it feels more rewarding by the end.
no subject
[He's too lazy for that kind of effort, Aphrodi! At least, when there's only a little to be gained...]
no subject
Okay. Maybe you've never used it before, that's understandable. But once you do, you'll understand why it's so important. And really good. [ Hair ruffles for you this time. And a sigh. ]
no subject
Where I come from, though, we don' have stuff like that. ... You might wanna talk to my friend Tetra, too.
She's a pirate, and sails all day long!
[She smells like... like pirates. 8|]
no subject
Okay, good. [ HE HAS MUCH TO TEACH YOU. ] You'll just have to learn here, then! You can borrow some of my stuff if you want.
[ Usually, he guards it closely. ]
You might also want to introduce me to Tetra one day.
no subject
[... Borrowing some of Aphrodi's stuff is going to be weird.
Will his hair look like Aphrodi's?]
no subject
[ One day, if you're lucky, maybe it will. ]
no subject
Do you think you can teach me how to play your soccer game, Aphrodi?
Kidou's always busy, and Sakuma's really grumpy...
But you're really nice! And I think it would be fun!
no subject
[ ...He snorts a little at the "Sakuma's really grumpy" part though. ]
