"Someday. Someday. I will murder those gnomes...someday."
The haunted house is as unnerving as ever. Toki meanders this way and that, trying to find a way back to civilization, regretting ever taking directions from gnomes. It is just so dark --
"What? This is so soft--OOOF."
The wall she stumbles into wobbles...and falls to pieces around her, burying her in some sort of textile.
"Gah! This is...huh? ...Socks?"
She starts brushing the pieces of sad, lonely, unpaired socks off. She tosses one away with particular fervor, and it lands on a coat rack--wait. That's not a coat rack.
"My apologies! I did not mean to hit you with the sock. Are you hurt? I hope not. Socks are quite soft. I mean, I don't know if these have been washed recently, but they are soft nonetheless."
She sits there, still covered in discarded pieces of cloth.
"Hello, hello! We have not met before. Are you looking for an exit as well?"

"Working...oh. You must be a human! How nice. There are so many of you in the haunted house! I suppose one cannot avoid this area if one is performing workplace duties."
This human (who is most definitely not a coat rack, she is glad she did not say that aloud) looks nice, but a little...nervous. Perhaps she should keep a polite distance. She decides to stay in place, surrounded by socks. It is very comfortable, as long as you try not to think about how long they've been gathering dust here.
"You know, I have not actually seen anyone in trouble here! It is strange. I've heard stories around school of people dissipating in this area. ...I would very much like to avoid that. You are working, hmm? You would not happen to have a map of this place? Or know how to get out? I am very, very tired of being lost -- ooh, how rude of me! I have forgotten introductions completely."
She waves one long, long sleeve. A few socks are knocked loose. Her camera drops out, and she quickly catches it with her other sleeve before it hits the ground.
"Oops! Whew. I am Toki! It is so nice to meet you."

Oh dear. This person doesn't seem comfortable at all. She stops shuffling and watches him fidget for a second.
"Are those earrings? They are so nice! Very sparkly. You wear them very well. Perhaps I should pierce my ears... And no, no. I do not kill people. My kind bring luck, you know. The only time they get scared is when they think we're going to leave! Hoho. I can understand how they feel, though. No one wants to lose their treasures, hmm?"
She's actually quite proud of this, and is preparing to go on a ten-minute monologue about ancestral history and family lineage, but sees him eyeing the camera.
"Oooh! Have you noticed my camera? You have good taste. It was a present from my father. It is...I think it's called a polaroid camera. Well, it is somewhat outdated, but I have taken pains to brighten it up!"
She rattles it. Diamante pieces are flung off into the sock-filled abyss.
"Come, we should take a photo together! What is it you call it? A sellfy?"

"OH MY. How dramatic! I personally never saw the need to carry a weapon, but that is certainly a fantastic way to do so. I am envious of your weapon thing. It is so convenient."
The human seems more comfortable, but still somewhat reticent--that is good in its own way. Everyone has their own personality. Besides, she will blabber enough for the both of them. She eyes the glowing rings with disappointment as they fade away, and starts rummaging in her sleeves again.
"Hmm. I would not say very many! Ahh, I cannot find my photo album, forgive me. I have met, um...honestly, sometimes I forget basic introductions. Seren, Rhys, ah, a few more right here in the haunted house, Zane, Henry, the twins...oh my. I am much better with faces than names. I am sure you spend much more time with your fellow humans than I!"
Perhaps she should open with "Who are you?" instead of "How about a photo?" from now on.
"And now I have met you! How fortuitous. You seem like a very nice young man. We should take a photo to commemorate. I hope I am not holding up your work. Come, come, one quick photo and you can be on your way!"
She (finally) extracts herself from the pile of socks and walks over, fiddling with her camera.
iloveyouDIE if you have a particular expression you want for him in the photo, now's the time to do it! +A+b

"Oh, how nice! I hope you do not have a bad impression of us and our school. But, maybe, uh, I have heard some students are not that friendly, so perhaps keep an eye out..."
She holds out the camera.
"Come, smile! Yes, yes, just like that--eh?--"
She glances to the side and realizes he is, in fact, frozen to the spot and not exactly smiling, but she is a fraction of a second too late, and the camera flashes.
"Ah, uhm...d-don't worry! You need not smile. Not everyone smiles in photos, you know. It gives people a more, ah, mysterious air! Yes. H-here, why don't you keep a copy?"
She pushes a copy of the photo into his still-frozen hand.
"I, uh, should probably return. Classes and all that, you know how it is. It was very nice meeting you! And do not worry! You look very good in the photo!"
