[@PaulHaynek] [hr] [h2] Nick's House [/h2] [hr] [quote=Nick] "O-Okay! Yes, let's do that!" [/quote] Dolores felt comforted. She knew it would be a long time before she could even hope to begin explaining what scientific experiments she’d been through. Not that she really knew what any of it did, but she could describe the feelings and actions in full gory detail. [quote=Nick] "So uh, welcome to my house. Your name is Dolores, right? Again, I'm Nicholas Gallagher or 'Nick' for short. I'm sorry if it's not big, I don't have enough money for fancier stuff. I'm also sorry if I upset you earlier." "Hey, if you don't mind me asking, what species are you?" [/quote] “Yes.. It is. But I would prefer it if you called me Dolly.. I don’t like my full name very much. ” She bit her lower lip a little bit. How would she know if this strong and comforting man felt the same way about her as she did about him? Maybe she could try and see if he could read in between the lines of what she would ask. “Hi Nick. I think your house looks comfy. Some things might need a big of cleaning up. But it’s fine, really. I’m just wondering.. do I sleep with you, on the same level or can I get the basement?” Her curiosity spiked. “Oh, and I’m a terranean. But my royal guard status makes me look a bit less recognizable. We’re inherently descendant from termites and other hives do exist. But for some reason there’s been a civil war among the queens. We don’t really have much of a military except for the queens guards, so any and all casualties are civilians. As for the reason of the conflict.. Some people are disputing our ancestry. Trying to relate us to ants, but we’re too lazy. So it doesn’t make much sense to fight over it in the first place.“ She looked and smelled around the room to see if there was anything she recognized. There was not.
