The exhaust from a nearby truck filled the air surrounding a dark-brown haired human figure. He grunted as he lifted the final box onto the moving truck, all properly labeled with "To: Graslan". His name was Ross, simply put. He wore a checkered shirt, camo shorts, and seemed to have a mischievous aura about him. His eyes weren't out of the ordinary, but he always possessed some sort of grin. Ross was a tad muscular, but not over the top. He wore sneakers to match his attire. It was moving day for Ross. He would soon step into a new world and be pit to live by himself, get by with selling, the stalk markets, etc., perhaps make a friend or two. He hoped the town wasn't lazy as a whole, and that their personalities weren't... monotonous. He liked a variety in a group. A perfect blend of individuals that didn't collide with one another. Of course, that doesn't mean he doesn't enjoy someone with the same qualities and common interests as himself. That'd be... Well, that'd be awesome, right?
"Alright, guy, that's the last of 'em. You know the way there, right?"
The driver gave a slight nod in response, though to be honest, he wasn't EXACTLY sure.
"Oh, you'll find your way. Just... Just follow the bus, they know what they're doin'. And thanks, man, much appreciated" Ross stated with a small smile, casually strolling off towards the bus station.
'To: Graslan', the sign read. Off from the distance approached a yellow bus, much like those driven to and from a public school. Ross stood with a leg crossed in a laid-back sort of fashion, despite laid-back being the last thing he was. A green... being? A green, monster like being opened the doors to the transportation vehicle. Ross hopped on-board, greeting the Kappa with a "'Sup?". Kapp'n turned his head and gave a hearty hello to the newcomer.
"This be yer first time takin' the bus, eh?"
"Yeah... Wait, you remember all of the people who take your bus?"
"Well of course, lad! Why wouldn't I? Garr harr harr!"
"Well, alright, I guess."
A purple-tinted cat peered from Ross's side. He greeted the newcomer as well. "So you're new, huh?" Rover stated, smiley as ever. Ross held back a, 'You're adorable' comment. It conflicted with his masculine personality, this love for the adorable and, naturally, the color purple. Mixed in together, Rover was INCREDIBLY adorable. But he'd never state that. "Yeah, I am, actually. Name's Ross, you?" He said, introducing himself as first nature. Rover smiled wider. "My name is Rover. I don't mean to pry, but, is this your first time living alone?"
"Yeah."
"You're gonna love it here" Rover quickly stated.
'If the residents are as cute as this ball of fluff is, I really am.' Ross thought, beginning to grin unintentionally.
"See! You're already smiling about it! Nice to meet you, Ross." Rover said with a softer smile.
Kapp'n interrupted the conversation. "Yarr, Graslan's coming up into view!"
Ross leaned over his chair to see the land. It was quite beautiful, though missing a few trees. The forest-like town was PERFECT for jogging... And there were a ton of rivers! Fishing! There seem to be a ton of bugs, he doesn't mind that at ALL. There seems to be a few animals in the distance. He spies a duck with... nice fashion sense. He wasn't much for fashion, but she was obviously very stylish. In competition with her, an almost-gothic bunny. And, to contrast with her, an adorable pink and white bunny. There's a gray bear with a bandaid on his forehead. How'd he get that? There was a small blue mouse with green-seeming hair. A ninja-like bunny. Three bunnies, wow. Off, far in the distance, he leaned over and squinted to spy a pink horse and a brown bear. They seemed to be the pair most interested in the bus. It was all fantastic, can't wait to see how this all turns out...
