I would stay still, pretending to not have awoken from my slumber. One of the two who had entered the room would approach me from behind. I heard their footsteps and tried not to flinch. Something soft would wrap around my leg, a tail. I received a firm poke on the back of the neck.
"Hey you, asscrack, are you alive?" It was the first voice. Now that it was closer, it sounded like an average female. The tail would unwrap from around my leg and she would step away for a moment, only for another tail to slap me across the face, forcing me to stop pretending. I got fur in my mouth, and spat it out onto the desk. I looked up, seeing a pale, x-eyed neko with artificially dyed blue and purple hair right in my face. I jumped, surprised, only for her to hold me still. She stared straight into my eyes, which made me start to sweat. She backed away after a moment, a sly grin spread across her face. "Dremon, get over here. This must be the new guy." She spoke with an almost elegance to her voice that I hadn't noticed before. Another approached, a shorter normal-looking male, with brown messy hair and a hoodie. He looked almost as nervous as I, yet there was something otherworldly about him that I couldn't shake away. He stuck his hand out towards me, which surprised me.

"You might want to get up, there's no point of sitting here in #welcome forever." He seemed friendly. I was too surprised to respond. He took my hand and pulled me upward, and I nearly fell over. He caught me before I could, however, his arm around my waist so I wouldn't topple over. This kind of interaction startled me, my face growing a little warm. He must have noticed my dazed expression and turned towards the neko.

"Ruin, new guy must be in shock. Can you show him the way to #general so he doesn't get lost?"

"Aight, hand 'em over Levi." This Dree, or Dremon, or Levi, or whatever his name was, passed me to Ruin, as if I was an inanimate object. Ruin held me by the arm, her grip not being too tight. I wasn't too steady on my legs yet, so I nearly fell again. Ruin would groan in annoyance, wrapping her tail around my leg as she had done before, but this time to hold me steady. Now I had noticed she had two tails, the other simply dragging against the ground.
