First Day
Twilight woke up. She and Ivan had been unpacked in a warehouse, filled with older appliances.
The "dominant appliance" was an old Kirby 1C. Celia was her name. She wheeled into the warehouse, her wheels squeaking. "Hmph. Maybe I need to oil that." She turned to face the two newcomers. "Ah, no one told me that there were new faces."
Ivan wheeled up to her. "Uh, hi. We just arrived yesterday."
Celia tapped a clipboard. "All right," she pulled out a pen. "Sorry. I need to register your names. It's something I do with all new residents."
"I'm Twilight!" Twilight said.
Celia filled in an empty blank. "And you are a... Thermalli Rainbow?"
Twilight nodded.
"Mistress has one other of that model, I think in a pastel shade?" Celia remarked. She wheeled towards Ivan. "And this is a Hoover... Innovation perhaps?"
Ivan nodded. "Ivan."
Celia scrawled down Ivan's name. "Perfect! Everything's all settled."
"So, what is this place?" Twilight asked.
Celia turned around. "Mistress's family has a history of collecting old or rare appliances. I'm one of the oldest residents here, if not the oldest."
Twilight looked around the warehouse after Celia retreated to her spot. A very fancy toaster, possibly made in the 1910s, sat beside an old bulky 80's computer.
"Maybe they should sort us by era," the computer said. "I feel... awkward near some of these specimens."
"That's Tandice," a very colorful 70's lamp said. "Mistress had to send her to a specialized repair center."
