Hey Mathew, it might be a good idea to stay far away from Memiri's cousins, Ivan and Misra. The two are also known as The Belle Siblings. Those two... aren't the greatest of people...

- 🌊

“My brother isn't the greatest,, but I still love him. Shitty people have hearts.”

[matt-man]

Matthew, what do you think of Memiri?

“I.. I don't know.”

“I mean,, i don't think anything bad i just— i don't know.”

[matt-man]

How do you milk an angel...?

“No- No it's not— it's vanilla extract and sugar in milk...”

[matt-man]

[For the q&a]

What's your favorite food?

“Deer meat, or any hunted animal really..- my brother used to always hunt for me.”

“But really? I'd prefer something sweet..- like.. Angel's milk.— but that's a drink.”

*A sudden stream of air blows by Matthew as something in a yellow outfit dashes by in a second. About a minute passes before what dashed by dashes back, stopping next to Matt and revealing herself to be a woman, around 25 years old, in a semmi-causal yellow and white outfit. She has long, brown hair, a light skin tone, and grey eyes.*

I don't think I've seen you here before... are you new to Tumblr Town or something?

(Ooc : the text without the * is what she says to Mathew.)

Well, I've never seen you around here before and would like to meet new people.

Also, sorry if I made you a bit jumpy... I kinda have powers, the one I use most often being super speed, and I think I might accidentally startled you. I don't want to scare you or anything.
