Transaction 001 - [Video]

[bespectacledsnake]

Good morning

[At present you are being addressed by a seemingly sanguine old man dressed in white linen. His beard is well trimmed and his hair well kept and when he speaks there is a very distinctive accent that gives his voice a musical cadence.]

Please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Semiyon Kleiman. I am a, well, a businessman by trade back home in Israel. Of course here I am just an old man

[His smile widens playfully] 

I do realize this is a strange request, particularly as I am new and most of you have no idea who I am, but you see I am entirely comfortable living by myself for reasons I'd rather not discuss as they are very personal and I wondered if perhaps anyone here might be interested in a shared living arrangement. 

[His fingers lace together] 

I keep to myself and would be respectful of your privacy, you would not have to worry about me crowding you. It is more for peace of mind than anything else. 

Thank you for your time.

Nope, that'll do it. [He's easy, honestly.]

I've got a house near the lab. Three bedrooms, one of which is up for grabs. Temporarily.

[He doesn't want this guy squatting forever, but maybe Semiyon can babysit the specimens while Newt goes off on one of those quests Love was talking about... Newt will need to train him plenty first, but hey, he can always use more assistants.]

[Temporarily works for now. It will buy him time to meet more potential housemates. Or, if he could be truly lucky, Joseph could turn up and he could have things back to the way he liked it.

But for now, Semiyon is a practical man and he'll make due with this arrangement]

Alright. If you are willing to let me temporarily use the room I would be most grateful.

[A pause]

And what is your name?

[completelycrazy]

Sure. As long as you don't mind sharing the space with my work, that is. I've got both living and dead specimens in the house, so two of the three bedrooms are off limits.

[As is the freezer. For Reasons.]

I'm Newt.

[bespectacledsnake]

Also long as the specimens are not in my room then I will be fine.

[He's shared living quarters with worse in his past]

Very nice to meet you, Mr. Newt.

[completelycrazy]

Yeah, don't worry. I'll clear out your room. It'll be specimen-free.

[Look he's had an entire house to himself for months. There was no reason for him to not spread out in every direction.]

You too. And it's doctor, actually, but just Newt's fine. When you heading over?
