She has arrived.

*humming*

Our rather short story begins with a brand new doll arriving at a brand new place of residence. She is slightly nervous, and the third person omniscient narrator is slightly incompetent in her line of work, as the omniscient part is not entirely truthful.

"I hope this is the right place." She said. Out loud. Because talking to oneself out loud gives off a teeny bit of confidence (to she who is talking), and more than a teeny bit of the impression of madness (to everyone else). It is debatable whether the talking out loud technique should be used, and requires careful weighing of the pros and cons of doing so- whether you want confidence or presumed saneness. It worked rather well for our protagonist, for the teeny bit of confidence was gained and no one but the third person omniscient narrator, who is apparently all-hearing as well as all-seeing, heard.

She knocked in a decidedly assertive fashion on the door.

 And was met by a nearly disconcerting guard armed with a ballpoint pen. "Stand down! Be you friend or foe?" Bellowed she who answered the door.

She blinked. "Umm friend, last I checked."

"Would this be 7644 East Swamp Road North Dollworld?" She added, glancing at the smudged scrap of paper in her hand.

"Yup. Are you our new roommate...sister...friend...thing?"

"Something like that-Gwen didn't say much."

"She never does. What's your name?"

"Rylan Kaimana Parker ."

"All three?"

"nah, whichever one you like."

"'K"

Rylan or Parker or both or neither gestured to the weapon "I'm glad to see that someone aside from Shakespeare has figured out that pen is mightier than sword."

"Mmm, thanks." Andie said, proudly fingering the pen.

"Do you greet everyone like that?"

"Yeah- I wouldn't use it on you, though."

"Good to hear." 

"Come on in, I'll show you around. I think Lilly made cookies."

It was at that point that The third person not-quite-omniscient narrator got bores of portraying Andie's awkwardness and decided that it would be much more fun of a task to play with Rylan Kaimana Parker's hair for a while. Or perhaps take more pictures for Maddie's AGPC or Izzy's poster contest, which is due om may first, I think, so I should get on that.
