[Fortunately, ten minutes or so is sufficient for Liem to finish hanging his linens and to be returning in through his back door when he hears a knock echoing through the house. Setting the empty basket aside, he hurries to the front door so he can answer it, swinging it open to gaze up at the jinba woman waiting half-on the decidedly not-jinba-sized porch.]
Hayame— Please, ah, come in.
[He’ll move back to accommodate her entrance, retreating further into the house so she can duck through his front door. The townhouse he purchased is unfortunately rather typical of Springstar, which means it’s narrow and has multiple levels, in the interest of fitting a good amount of house on not too much land. Usually he would just invite her around to the back garden, but his neighbours can definitely see down into his yard from their upper floors. It is not especially private.
Fortunately, after the narrow entranceway, the main floor of Liem’s home is mostly open, the sitting room transitioning into a dining area and then a kitchen, with nary a wall in between. There is room to maneuver at least, even if none of the furniture is suitable for a jinba’s use.]
