[Nevy really, honestly, genuinely... hates everyone. Like. Everyone. Everyone except Gil, because Gil is wonderful, but yet again Gil is not here and Nevy has no idea what to do other than curl up in her bed and seethe.

The awful creature was in her bathtub, again. Except this time, when she howled in fury and pounded on the other's door, no one came in to save her. Not Pyro, not the nice girl, Oswin. No one. And so she banged on the door for like ten minutes, before the sulking lizard started attempting to escape its bathtub prison and she shrieked and ran for cover, slamming the door to lock the creature inside the room, ready to forget about it.

Two hours later, when she had to use the toilet, it was there still. Further banging was yet unproductive, and so with an angry huff, she pushed on the doorhandle --

-- and the door swung open, uninhibited, to an empty room.

The neighbors surely must have heart her enraged shouting, but Nevy didn't care! How awful! What a horrible person!

Still in need of the toilet, she chased the creature into the empty apartment with a broom to give her peace and quiet in the bathroom. Halfway through, she heard it scratching at the door between them. Ugh. She had fled to her room and locked herself in, ready to forget about the thing.

An hour and a half after that, she hears scratching again.

She bites her lip, staring at the door. What the heck is she supposed to do with it, even? If it dies, it'll stink up the whole apartment... But she doesn't want it! She doesn't want to feed it or take care of it! Ugh ugh ugh!]

Hi, um. Does anyone know what lizards eat? My awful roommate is gone... but he left his terrible pet in the bathroom again... [Her cheeks pinken.] I don't want it to die, it'll start smelling and I don't want to have a dead animal next to my room!

This is so awful. Could someone please come take it away?

I don't know how big a dragon is...

Oh goodness that sounds so gross, no!

[necrowmantic]

True, I guess they come in different sizes, huh? And the big people-eating ones probably wouldn't fit in a room. So you're safe! ...Unless you fall asleep and it's hungry enough, nya ha ha!

But aww, I'll even bring the mouseys.

[neverymind]

NO!

No, no, no! No dead things, none at all! No, don't don't don't, oh my stars.

[necrowmantic]

What's wrong with dead things? They're nice! But if that's out, you can try giving it grass or something- maybe you'll be lucky and it's a plant-eater? What's it look like anyway?

[neverymind]

They are not nice, not at all! They're smelly and horrible and scary...

And, um. It looks like...

[She sends the same picture she sent to Sherlock of the lizard, because like fuck she's taking another one.]

[necrowmantic]

Man, that looks awesome! Much cooler than I was imagining. I'd love having something like that around, we'd be best buds!

If your other options fall through, I'm totally up for asking it to move in with me.

[neverymind]

Wow, so many people want this thing... I don't care, whoever gets there first can take it!

[necrowmantic]

Don't want to cut off any toes... not accidentally, anyway! Why're you so against having it as a neighbor? I bet he'd scare off any thieves!

[neverymind]

Someone needs to take care of it! And it... it scratches at my bathroom door, and that makes me really uncomfortable, okay.

[necrowmantic]

Aww, he's probably lonely and trying to say hello. Or working his way through the door to eat you. Ooh, any second now he could be tearing through~

[neverymind]

[in lieu of a coherent response there is a short, terrified scream.]

[necrowmantic]

Was I right? He moves quicker than I thought, nya ha!
