Water Weebs

Oluremi was a nervous wreck. Arjean had their friends come over many times, but Oluremi never had her own friends come over. Now would be her first time inviting anyone into her room that wasn't family. She made sure everything was clean, but that wasn't the real issue. The real problem was her family. They were great at acting all friendly and polite (minus Arjean, but they were two, what did anyone expect?), but whenever they felt threatened they would switch into being passive-aggressively kind. Their talent to be just the perfect mixture of sweet and mean to avoid getting into big trouble was incredible.

Despite her feelings, Remi still kept on her usual impassive face, though at times her eyebrows would twitch and she would pluck out her feathers from her neck without realizing it. She had to tell her family, even if she didn't want to. They were going to notice when a stranger walked in, no matter how hard she tried to rush them into her bedroom. For a moment she thought about having Eiko climb through the window, but her room was on the second floor of the mansion, and she didn't know how to make a detailed map of such a vast and complicated house. Remi also considered her friend getting lost through the words, so that plan was dead before it even took a breath.

Her family reacted well to the news, helping her get prepared, and as always, Béatrice was setting up food for Eiko. Béatrice didn't hesitate to rush out to the store and get a lot of seafood; she also brought back snacks for Remi to put in her bedroom for her friend. When Béatrice acted kind Oluremi was always caught off guard. She could switch between kind to demonic in seconds, bit today seemed to be one of her good days, where her mood was more stable and happier than usual. Arjean even got to skip out on their tests, much to their confusion and anxiety. Instead, Ade was taking care of them, making sure they didn't get in the way of Remi's hang out with Eiko.

Now that everything was finished, Remi hung around the outside of the mansion, checking her phone every once in a while to make sure her friend didn't get lost. The house was deliberately set in a far off area, hidden nicely behind trees, for her mothers' own personal reasons. It was cold too, but that was only natural to Water oricenta. Oluremi would have liked it colder, but she had to deal with things not being too cold on Manta Carlos because of other species. The house should be easy to see if Eiko followed her instructions. It was giant, painted white, and obviously expensive. Oluremi had Béatrice and Archard's flashy personalities to thank for that kind of privilege.

"Nah, you're fine," Remi responded before turning away and leading Eiko into her house."The place can be a bit confusing to figure out, so just stay close."

Oluremi was surprised that Béatrice didn't immediately pop up to greet Eiko, but she assumed she was in the kitchen cooking and was waiting for the right moment. She was thankful her moms had enough sense to not bombard Eiko with questions about what it was like to be a lamia... At least, not immediately.

Eiko was led upstairs to Remi's bedroom. There was a room they had to enter first to get in, which was what Remi considered her computer room. There was a tv hooked up on the walls and, a brown wooden desk covered with sketchbooks and art books, a white and pink monitor and keyboard on it, and a white chair. Underneath the television was an impressive collection of comic books, manga, and CDs for different shows in a white bookcase. There was also a large carpet spread across the room patterned with pink and yellow stripes.

Just like her computer room, Oluremi's bedroom was covered in brightly colored pastels, the most common one being pink. Her bed was set up like the ones you would see in a fantasy book that a princess would lay on, but this was one round with the mattress put on the floor. It had to be round and large so she could fold her wings easily when laying down. The room's carpet was a baby blue with a large, white and purple carpet covered in elegant designs put over it. The walls were painted pink with blue, yellow, and purple dots looking similar to glitter on it. The only thing that wasn't pink was her dresser, which was white and gold, but still had the same princess-esque look like the rest of her room.

"The other room over there," she pointed at the door, lined almost parallel to the door they just entered the bedroom from, "is my music room. I have some stuff set up for dancing there, but I usually do it outside. Gives me more space. You can also see my collection of instruments that I may or may not be able to play in there.

"Also, my moms may end up asking you a lot of questions, so sorry about that. Sorry if you hear a baby crying in the background too." Oluremi often forgot the strength of human hearing, but she assumed that Arjean's crying was loud enough for the deaf to hear.
