"Oh, hello there..." the man with purple hair in a turquoise suit and fedora she was talking to responded to her, and coughed slightly. Was it because of her being dusty? Sapphire made a mental note to take a shower as soon as she got into a room. She was glad though, that she was heard.
"If you mean what I mean.... Then, yeah... I'm onyx... and you?" he answered her question.
"Ni-nice to meet you On-Onyx. I'm Sapphire." she stammered, hoping she hadn't screwed up her greetings, then she heard Onyx tell her that someone was behind her before stepping back. "Hey, do you know that guy? He's talking to you..."
Sure enough, there was a male with black hair and blue eyes staring closely at her. "Madam, are you alright ?"
"I-I'm fine!" she managed out, he was staring at her too much and she felt a little uncomfortable with it. Thankfully an owl landed on the guy's shoulder, which must've been his pet or something, it caused him to stop staring at her too much. Was he a birthstone too? "I'm the birthstone Sapp-"
"Kitten!" she heard a girl call out and turned just in time to see a small white dove fly into a girl with blonde hair. "Hello," the girl said lightly, "Name's April"
Sapphire might have nodded and smiled a little too enthusiastically, but she was happy that people were introducing themselves.
"So, nice to meet you all" April nodded. "The name fits the place, don't you think? Well, I mean, it's a good name for a place where a Gemstone lives"
A young looking girl with a teddy bear and what Sapphire could clearly identify had enormously heavy bags and a red haired girl arrived.
As soon as she said that, a new soaked girl with golden eyes dragged a...gir-no...a guy a long, seemingly out of breathe and announced herself. "Hello hello everyone! I'm Aquamarine and welcome to La Maison des Joyuax! French for 'The House of the Jewels', which is ironic because this place looks everything but French."
Aquamarine then did a fluid-like motion with her hand and all of the water that was currently on her, hovered and formed into a orb in her hand. Sapphire watched in awe. That was so cool. So this was the Aquamarine who had invited the birthstones to stay here. Sapphire had a feeling they might get along pretty well.
"Yeo-reum, April, Ada, Saph, Devan, BQ! You're all here!" the brown haired male greeted them. He knew all their names...
“Thank you for the invitation Aquarium.” the red haired one said rather politely, however she got Aquamarine's name wrong. “Your home is beautiful”
As Sapphire had expected from the generous Aquamarine, she smiled and corrected the red haired girl, as well as adding in about how she loved the place and had to buy it right away.
An incredibly rude male pushed through everyone, announcing his name as if he didn't really care about them, which might've been the truth. He was really just aiming for the nicest room there was in there. Sapphire didn't really like the guy. Amethyst...pfft. She could tell the others didn't really like him either.
"Well I hate to break it to you Amethyst dear, but you won't be finding any nice rooms until I open the door." Aquamarine told him, before opening the doors and inviting them inside.
The girl with the teddy introduced herself to Aquamarine, Sapphire caught her name. "Hello. My name is Yeo-reum Ahn. My name means Summer. I'm June." she stopped for a second thinking, then giggled. "I'm Pearl. Thank you so much for inviting us."
"Oh.." Pearl said, laughing, "This is my bear. I thought... I thought I put him back in the bag. I guess not." she was sounded so absent-minded and cute. "But, thank you again."
Sapphire watched as the girl stacked heavy bags over her shoulders. "Oh. Heavy. Where do I put my things?" she asks huffing. "Hopefully it's not that far..." she looks up, "...or that high."
Sapphire knew exactly what to do with Pearl. She approached the girl carefully, not wanting to trip and accidentally hurt her or anything. Sapphire felt a little comfortable around Pearl, since she wasn't as intimidating or big as the others were. She placed her fingertips on Pearl's shoulder.
"Hey...Pearl, right? I-I'm Sapphire. Let's help with the heaviness...alright?" Sapphire managed to sound really gentle and mellow instead of scared. With her touch, she lessened the gravity of the bags, making them weight a lot lesser, almost as if they were just a regular backpack. Sapphire smiled rather sweetly at the girl, her dark wavy hair seemed to splay around elegantly from her gravitation. "There, light enough for you?"
Sapphire felt good. So far she hadn't messed up and had managed to end up helping someone for once. She turned to Aquamarine to bow, but instead, she hit her forehead into her luggage bag's extended handle, emitting a loud whack and a cloud of dust from the impact. She wailed for a short while before rubbing her forehead with both hands to ease the pain.
"I-I'm Sapphire, thanks for inviting me. I was to arrive three days ago...b-but I got lost. I'm a little clumsy and absent-minded sometimes, but I'll try to be on my best behavior." she said meekly with tears in her eyes and a rather red forehead. "I'm sorry if I appear filthy...I'll go freshen up as soon as I get into my room. "
