Hearing his voice and his gentle reassurances that she wasn't in the wrong, Vanille relaxed a bit, her smile matching his. For just having randomly been woken up by someone, especially some random person who was nosing in someone else's business. Or in this case, nap. His demeanor seemed to match perfectly with how she found him, comfortable and just going with the flow. He seemed very easy to get along with, to her pleasant surprise. "I guess you must be a heavy sleeper, or really like naps. That's how I feel, at least. I sleep like a rock and naps are just the best."
Her attention was most definitely drawn to the doll as the boy spoke to it, noticing that the doll was actually... moving. Like it was alive. Upon further inspection, it was the same doll that she had noticed earlier. So it was just some kind of possession of the dolls, housing.. what exactly? Some kind of creature. Perhaps a spirit? That would make sense. A few kids at home had their own spirit dolls, but Vanille never quite got around to making one. There was a whole section on that stuff in her spellbook, but then again the book tailored itself based on her needs, so who knows what it actually did or didn't have? Either way, the doll was cute, just sleeping in his arm.
"Ekayon. It's nice to meet you." Vanille took her hand back as he mentioned Gnome and the others. Others.. so there was multiple... ah! An idea struck Vanille, and she leaned forward a bit to smile at the bushy-haired boy. "So you have others like Gnome? Yknow, I'm a witch from another dimension, and I have a pretty cool spellbook. If you wanted, I could make you enough dolls to hold all of your friends at once, dolls that would show their real appearance. Or not, if you really like the sack-doll look. Or, I could make them visible and tangible to everyone, or just me if youd like, so that they wouldn't need a doll to be seen or interacted with. Yknow, as repayment for interrupting your nap?"
Ekayon scratched his head jostling his mane of hair while doing so. He did enjoy napping, though it wasn't of his own volition most of the time. His gift to commune with Gnome and the others was amazing, but his body hasn't fully adjusted to the abundance of power he harbored. As a result his narcolepsy was more of a side effect from his lack of control. Yet this narcolepsy extended to a small area around him. Like an odd form of hypnosis. "Well as far as naps go I do like them, though not as much as Gnome here. I'm actually more surprised you're awake. You must have a really strong will to stay awake around me. I was afraid I wouldn't be able to make friends because of this odd power of mine."
He was relieved to know that Vanille could resist his aura. Hopefully he would meet more people that could resist it as well so that he may make more friends. The two spirits still hiding within his hair, Sylph and Salamander, looked at Vanille with curiosity. She seemed nice enough and Ekayon seems to have trust in her. Perhaps it's because they enjoy the same things? Sylph sniffed the air around the girl. She definitely didn't smell like she was from this plane. Then again, from what Sylph could tell, most if not all of the other students here were the same way. Salamander looked closely into Vanille's eyes. Undine had once told her that you could see a lot through the eyes of a human. Salamander stared into her violet eyes for as long as she could before she gave up. "I don't understand what Undine means. How could anyone understand humans through their eyes? Hearts are easier to read. Hearts don't lie!" Salamander said aloud. Though only Ekayon could hear her.
Ekayon looked over to his right side. He saw Salamander struggling with her thoughts while hiding within his hair. A gentle, low sigh escaped his mouth before turning his attention back to Vanille. She said she was from another dimension and something about a spell book. Ekayon was taken aback by the notion of her being from a different dimension. He knew this school was special, but so special to have people fro different dimensions was beyond him. He was still trying to wrap his head around the idea that angels and demons are just walking around all willy-nilly. Still the thought that other people would be able to see the spirits would be nice. And if they didn't have to be channeled through the dolls that would lift a huge burden off of his shoulders. He mulled the thought over a bit more before coming to a decision. "I suppose that wouldn't be too bad. It would make it so I don't have to focus so much on maintaining their forms while in dolls. Plus I think the others would like to speak with you as well. If you can make then visible and tangible I'm sure that would go a long way for everyone involved."
((Sorry it took so long to reply @Lumina. I've been recovering from a double ear infection and I just started working again. I'm still recovering right now but I thought I should at least make sure you knew I was still here. I'm gonna be in and out for the next few days so I'm sorry in advance if I don't reply within that time frame.))
