"Hey."
Their eyelids stir.
"Wake up." a gravely voice asks, gently shaking one of them on shoulder. His voice was tinted with excitement. "Wake up."
Sleepily, one of them flickers their eyelids, catching a glimpse of the room around them. A simple room, really. White walls, stained wood furniture, and perhaps a window or two in the corner. They rather adored the little wood furnace in the corner, but in all reality, they were too tired to care. They resist waking, turning over and trying to return to their quiet slumber, snuggling into the worn couch.
"Come on. Wake up." the voice asks again, using two hands to try to rouse them. "Wake up and see your new home."
That certainly caught their attention.
A few of them open their eyes once more, only to be met by the face of a young man, perhaps in his late twenties, maybe older. He wore a knitted grey snow cap, one that only barely concealed his fluffy chestnut hair. His light blue eyes were lit up with joy as he smiled warmly at them.
"Hello," he said.
Their eyelids stir.
