Damos walked into his new home, carting two overly large suit cases. He glances around the lounge nervously sitting in an empty chair, spinning the ring on his finger as one of his many ticks.

Liz heard the familiar sound of a heavy suitcase before she looked up from her book to see the boy around her age sit down in one of the empty chairs. For a moment, she considered just going back to her book but he looked quite nervous and he'd clearly only just got here. Scrunching up her nose slightly in thought, she made the decision to put her book down and actually socialise.
"Hey," she said gently, hoping not to startle him or make him more nervous, "I'm guessing you're new. The names Elizabeth Follett, you want some help finding your way around?"

He jumped in his seat but not too much "Oh Sorry I was absorbed in thought" He sighed as he turned and smiled at her and attempted to get up to shake her hand, but kicked over the suitcase "Darnit...., Anyhow Hi my name is Damos Leonis pleasure to make your acquaintance" He bowed and took her hand kissing it out of forced habit from being drilled with manners "And who are you Madam, would you care to be my friend and help me out..." He rambled nonsensically and attempted to make a good impression.

Jake was on one of the sofas with his earphones in, listening to music. He couldn't sit normally on it, though; no, he dangled his legs over the back of the saet and his head where his feet were supposed to go. Why sit the normal boring way?
He kept his eyes closed as the rythmic beats played, his friend, Liz, reading some boring book like she always did. Once she picked up a book, it was hard to get a single word out of her. However, he could make out muffled voices over the sound of his music. Opening his eyes and taking out one earphone, he looked at the boy she was talking to. A rare occasion, stopping mid way through a book.
The boy stumbled over one of his cases and Jake couldn't help but laugh. He was clumsy at times but that was usually only when he got nervous or in a crowd of people. When he walked over, Jake rolled his legs over himself to be stood in front of the sofa. He turned and introduced himself: "Hey, I'm Jake."

Liz laughed softly before picking up the boys suitcase and then turning back to face him. Laughing quietly once again at his aged formal greeting, she smiled widely at him, "a pleasure to meet you Damos and, as i said, my name is Elizabeth Follett and I'd be glad to help you out"
She looked sideways, amused at Jake's entrance into the conversation, grinning at him and saying "Do you always enjoy showing off when you meet new people or is that specifically reserved to remind me how non-athletic I am with all your rolling."
