Narraine couldn't help but smile. Her own favorite color was light purple. it was rather surprising how many similarities they actually had that existed outside of their species. Hobbies, tastes, and even colors were suggesting that they would continue to get along very well together. If anything it meant that decorating was going to be easy.

If Iesha was not interested in a desk, then at the very least Narraine was going to look into some sort of soft rug that Iesha could stretch out on. now that she thought about it perhaps a similar rug could be used in her own room. Something plush, or shag perhaps. she could almost picture it stretched out in front of the bed, waiting for her to lay on. "Ok... So we don't need a desk. That's ok. I might get one for myself, cause I get a lot of homework. As for books, I think what we need to do is go to a used bookstore and get every book we can carry."

The question was turned around on herself and she was delighted to tell Iesha of what kind of things she intended to get for her own room. I was thinking I'd like a nice lamp, a very large plush chair that I can wrap my tail around, and settle into. Some really flowy curtains for the windows, and for the door frame too. I'm not really used to having solid doors. Back home private rooms were separated by curtains. I think I might try to recreate my old room, from my world."

She wondered now If Iesha would be excited to find out they shared a similar color taste. "My favorite color is light purple. But i also enjoy warm color's, like reds, and yellows and oranges. And i don't mind green."

Iesha places an index finger on her chin, tilting her head when Narraine suggested that go by to get used books.

"U-used books? There are places for that? That is good! W-we should... g-give them new homes... r-right? Right." spoke up Iesha, excited with the thought of having more stories to devour. Iesha would then listen to Narraine as she goes on about the objects that she would fill her from and much like herself she planned to fill familiar decor that payed homage to their home. "O-oh? Your not used to them either? Maybe we could... pull them out? A-and replace them with curtains? T-t-thats what we also did back at m-m-my home too! A-a-and... I... don't like having these doors to be true-ful... feel trapped when they are closed."

Iesha fidgeted her fingers and her tail curled up a little tighter, it sounded silly now that she said it out loud but she disliked the feeling confined. Closed rooms just remind of her being in her little cage. "M-m-maybe I am just... not used to doors either... so... ummm... ummm... w-w-we do not half to replace them if... if you think its too much trouble..."

Iesha would then smile as Narraine told her about all the colors that she liked, mostly colors associated with warmth and energy. What really got the young Lamia's attention was the color of light purple... the color of her own eyes.

"O-oh! I LIKE THAT COLOR TOO! I-i-its the same as my eyes~ T-t-there are... nice eyes right? A-and I like red too... it reminds me of... errr..." Iesha paused, then spoke up "... cause red is a nice color too... yeah."

"You know. I think I am ok with no doors too. I mean except for the main door that protects us. We can pick out lots of curtains, though, and put them up for the doors too." She chuckled a little at the notion. it was nice that they both agree that the doors were not a great idea for them. In Narraine's eyes, it also helped to ensure that Iesha knew that she could always come to her. A closed door would only make the young girl feel cut off from her.

When Iesha asked if her eyes were Nice Narraine nodded and gave her a smile. "Your eyes are stunning. They suit you so well." Narraine had loved Iesha's eyes. They were so full of life, and promise and their unique color was so wonderful to look at. her own were red due to a lack of pigment. they were basically nothing special. If anything people had thought her to be a monster because of them so she wasn't to keen on her own. Even when the young Lamia spoke up that she had also liked the color red. "Red reminds me of warmth. It makes me feel toasty warm even on a cold day." That was probably the best thing to associate the color red with.

"I wouldn't mind getting a fish tank too. I love looking at fish swimming around. It always makes me feel calm no matter what is going on." She had always loved the sea back home. She would go to the coasts often and watch the waves, and when possible the fish that would bask in the shallow waters.

Iesha was a bit excited when Narraine agreed with her suggestion to just replace most of the doors with curtains as well as her idea to get a fish tank. It was a fun idea to have little fishies that she could look after!

"O-oh yesss yesss yess! I-I think I would l-like that too! T-the fishies I mean!" insisted Iesha, then end of her serpent-like tail wiggling back and forth in her excitement.

"D-do the fish calm you because they remind you of water? C-cause you like to swim too m-m-mhhaybe?" questioned Iesha.

Iesha was curious. Dispite living in desert Iesha loved being in the water, she used to swim in the small cave pool that was also their fresh water source. At least until she got to big to swim in it. Her mom and sister were never much interested in swimming or even bathing so... she was curious about Narraine's love for fish tanks stemmed from a general love of being in water like herself.

Narraine laughed thoughtfully at Iesha's new sudden excitement at the idea of a fish tank. There were even a few walls that would do well for a larger aquarium in\f they wanted. It would be like having a little slice of the ocean right there in their own home.

"I do love to swim. I used to all the time, though I haven't had much of a chance to go to the pool here in town. We should get some swim passes and make it a regular thing. We could go a couple times a week if you like. And then when it warms up a bit more we could go to the beach and swim in the ocean." Swim passes were not too expensive. They could get them easily, and then they would have another regular activity to do. Swimming would also be good exercise, especially since Narraine felt she wasn't getting enough lately.

"Actually... I should ask... How is your shedding? cause we could always go to the spa and soak in the big tubs when you need to shed too. It helps a lot." Back home shedding was always something done in private, but the days leading up to a shed were often social events, where in many Lamia would gather to soak in communal baths for hours. For Narraine herself it was a great chance to catch up with friends who she did not get to see regularly. As of lately, Jared would accompany her and her sister, but having another Lamia to go with her and Aylin would be even better.

Iesha was a tiny bit thrilled with the idea of going to the beach... sunning herself in the warm sand and cooling off in rich blue sea waters! At the very least they can go to the pool together whenever they wanted to swim though swimming in such a public setting would be... different. She was used to swimming and bathing by herself... and in the nude. Iesha had learned that it was customary to wear designated clothing the the purpose of swimming... maybe she and Narraine can pick out something for her?

"O-ohh! T-that sounds fun... ummm... but... I'm... I'm going to to need... ummm... ummm... ssswim... clothesss?"

Iesha wasn't sure if that was the correct word but... maybe Narraine would figure out what she meant. The topic of shedding however made Iesha's cheeks flush a little red. It was always something that she found unpleasant and private, especially during her time in captivity her captors. They used to collected her sheded skin and would later have to help with peeling of the skin from her body due to multiple incomplete shedding. She always disliked them rubbing filthy hands on her scaly coat... made her feel almost violated in a way.

"M-my shedding? Ummm... well..." Iesha looked at her scales, it has been awhile since she last shed and her scales where awfully dull. Probably two or three more days until she slips out of her old skin. "... been having... problems shedding... I... have to... peel it off in patches..." spoke Iesha with displeasure.

"Y-y-you... umm...you think a ssspa will... h-help? Isss... isss it like... a bath?"

Suddenly, Narraine wasn't sure of the protocol for taking a child swimming here on earth. Back home females went swimming, it didn't matter the age or blood line. There was never any need fro clothing, or things of that nature as modesty was not something Lamia concerned themselves with. Here though there was a sort of ban on exposure above a certain amount. Tops were required along with bottoms even on the public beaches. This was especially a nuisance as a Lamia's figure did not allow for traditional swimwear to be worn. The Spa's had been different, though, they had certain rules in regards to such things, in most cases isolating genders to different sections, separated by privacy walls. She herself had never used swimwear when visiting the mineral spas with her sister.

"Yes. We will need a swimsuit for the pools. We will need something custom made, but don't worry. There are a few shops that can make you something" She thought back to her own swimsuit now. She had had a custom one tailored for her, to surprise Jared with, but it wasn't the kind of thing she could wear around Iesha. She would need to get something else made up for the public pools. "I don't think we need anything for the Spa's though. They have a girls only section."

In regards to whether or not a trip to the spa would help with shedding, Narraine knew for a fact that it would. "And the Spa's do help. They make all the difference in the world. They are like large pools full of mineral waters. I like to soak in them for a couple hours the day before. It makes everything easier."

She sighed looking at her own scales. They had become dull again, she had only just shed a couple weeks ago too. Perhaps a soak sooner than later was in order.

Swimsuit! That was the word that Iesha was looking for! There were so many words in English that it was hard to remember which words where the the one you meant to use. Miss Narraine seem to have understood what she meant and told her that the two of them will go out and get their own swimsuits together. That would be... sort of fun. Iesha never really had the luxury of custom clothing fitted just for her... what few cloths she did have were often modified from the spare clothes and clothes from human settlements.

"O-oh... ohkay... y-yeah... custom... thats nice. Soo... umm... will it... only be us i-in the sspa? I... I-I-I rather not... be around... o-others when I bathe..." Iesha fiddled with her fingers a bit, it wan't completely true. She just didn't like the idea of other people watching her, even if they were females as well. After a pause, Iesha spoke up with "A-a-and... ummm... m-min-erals... umm... w-what do the min-erals do? I... I dont.... know what min-erals are... the word I mean..."

Narraine herself had never been a shy person. Granted she did enjoy being alone when needed, however, she never felt the need to pull away or hide from others. So when Iesha explained that she would not wish to be around others in the spa, Narraine was a little confused. After a moment or two, she smiled though, as she suddenly understood. It was hard sometimes for her to remember that not everyone had an upbringing like her own that had encouraged her to be so open.

"Oh. Yes of course. We can go just the two of us if you like." She said extending her smile. she wanted to do whatever it took to help Iesha settle in and be comfortable. even more so she wanted the young lamia to be comfortable around her. she wanted to get to a point where she could hug her, and where Iesha didn't feel the need to be so formal. She wanted everything to be happy and well. Being here though, in this new home where She could look after her, they were well on their way to a better life.

She would go on to explain what the minerals were and their benefit when bathing. Even going so far as to pull up the website for the spa on her phone, to show Iesha pictures of the large bathing pool they could stretch out in. She was even able to confirm they could have a private mineral pool to themselves. All in all, it would shape up to be a good weekend if they decided to go.

We could probably end this one here and move onto the next thread.

Iesha wasn't sure about spa idea when Miss Narraine first mentioned it but... the longer she explained benefits of bathing in warm mineral waters more appealing the idea became. Especially when Narraine showed her the size of the spa, all of which appeared to be large enough to fit the both of them quite comfortably. While the idea of bathing with others did put her off... so long as it was only her and Narraine, whom has been nothing but wonderful to her, Iesha figured that it would be okey it was just the two of them.

Iesha would to going to the Spa with Narraine and would later move the nature of the subject onto cell phones as they were but magical device to her. While Miss Narraine was neither her mother nor her sister... Narraine was certainly filling in the niche of the caregiver that Iesha so desperately needed. For the longest while Iesha thought she deserved to alone by herself but with Narraine... maybe... maybe she could open herself up to her and their now home.

((Alright! Lets wrap this thread up then ^.^ ))
