Aela had fit herself the best she could within the large van. While should would of preferred something more spacious the moving van was the best they could provide for one such as her and she did her best not to feel somewhat insulted and embarrassed that she was being transported like a piece of furniture. She had to remind herself that human vehicles did not accommodate beings her size at all and calmed herself on the matter. The largest downside to the van was she was unable to see the city and get a lay of the new surroundings she would be adjusting herself too that would be so different from her old home.

Aela could only assume they had reached their destination when the van stopped and it sounded like someone had exited the vehicle, no doubt the nuisance of a coordinator that she had been stuck with the entire time she made her case on being part of the exchange program. Her name was Miss Williams, a short and rather skinny person with a mop of dyed pink hair. For Aela she was to energetic and felt her to be somewhat of a cluts. However, the little woman had been the only one to listen to her plea and managed to get her into the program. That thought alone kept Aela from wrapping her in webbing and tossing her off a bridge for her being a pain in her side as well through the entire process pushing her to memorize every detail of the Exchange Bill.

The back of the van doors opened, blinding Aela briefly before her six eyes adjusted to the light."We are here miss Theraphos, don't make me regret this," the oddly short female coordinator stated in a shrill voice, turning her back to the arachne. It took all of Aela's nerve not to bite the miserable little pest of a coordinator as she exited the van looking at the building before. She hoped that the person that would be her guardian did not hate spiders like some of the stories from other arachne homestays. While large breeds were deemed unsafe the other breeds of arachne had been allowed into the program for awhile, but humans seemed to have a rather inconsiderate fear for arachnids as a whole making arachne difficult to place.

"Well Miss Therapos this is where I will leave you to do introductions, don't bite her and you should be good," Miss Williams said breaking Aela from her thoughts. Aela gave the coordinator a grin full of fangs and a small nod, the thought that finally the coordinator would be gone made her happy. At least until the pink mop checked on her but that wouldn't be for some time as long as Aela showed that she followed the rules.


[i]'Oh great, a corpse,'[/i] Aela thought looking at the other girl that was to be part of the homestay it seemed as she walked her way up the path to the building. What little clothes she wore seemed to be in rags, making Aela somewhat happy that she had taken up knitting and sewing to calm herself since it allowed her to make her own clothes rather then make an attempt and borrow the poorly sized clothes at the Embassy that had been provided to her on first arrival. They had barely kept her decent. Still perhaps the other girl would be tolerable. After all it was another opportunity to show that arachne like her could mingle not only with humans but other races without fear.

Aela then remembered that she had yet to introduce herself. She lowered herself down slightly, still standing taller then either her guardian and other homestay but enough to at least feel somewhat more level with them."Greetings I'm Aela Theraphos," she said ",Pleasure to make your acquaintance." So far things seemed to be going well. At least no one was running or screaming in terror.
