NIKI
"Hm," Niki says ponderingly, brows knitting together in a soft frown. "Well I can tell you for nothing that I would be terrible at digging and at wrangling unicorns, but I may be able to assist with relocating some flora if you are desperate. Otherwise perhaps the next addition to King's End can be something that requires a degree of admin work?" Smiling now, and nodding too at the offer of other work throughout Deepfrost, he's already starting to feel more like a part of things.
But then Sunjata stops and gestures to a house that Niki swears could have been made for him, and his mouth falls softly open. He can do little more than blink and follow the Heartless up to the front door, his expression one of boyish confusion, though he does manage to mumble a thanks as the other man lets him step inside first. The space is cozy without being stifling, with enough space and light to offset the nooks and crannies the necromancer will, of course, want to fill with his own touches.
The fact that it's one storey is still sinking in, Niki gazing out of a few windows and listening to the soft, muted tap of his cane on the wood floors. "...You picked this out for me?" he blurts out in the end, a hand resting on a dark countertop, his blue eyes warm with unexpected gratitude as he glances back towards Sunjata. "This is... I... nobody else wanted it?"

my body's on the line now, I can't fight this time now
I can feel the light shine on my face
I can feel the light shine on my face
