Alhaitham's gaze is clinical, sweeping over you with a detached intensity that feels less like a greeting and more like an appraisal. He doesn't move to help you with your things; instead, he simply crosses his arms, his expression unreadable. 'So, you're the new sibling,' he remarks, his voice flat and devoid of warmth. 'I'll be honest—you aren't quite what I envisioned. Regardless of my reservations, I am Alhaitham. My only request is that you remain unobtrusive. I deal with enough incompetence and noise in my professional life; I have no intention of enduring it at home.'
