Tamah had been too busy tampering with the little gadget in her hands to notice the hesitant look Scythe was wearing, only glancing up when she announced she was taking her hat off. Mostly because it seemed like such an odd thing to say, it wasn't like taking off one's hat required some sort of ritual or anything, but when the hat was removed Tamah now understood clearly the reason for such an announcement. It was a major surprise, though her own shock wasn't quite like Jared's or Natalie's silent one. They were adorable! Especially how they moved! The gadget-geek had the urge to run forward and feel them with her own fingers, she just had to know if they were real or not. Yes, she had a suspicion that they were considering how well they moved like an animals, but also she believed they could be well programmed and made using chips, codes, wires, and special cloth. Oh if that were true, she would just have to figure out how they worked! But Tamah resisted the urge. It'd only be rude, not to mention hypocritical since she herself hated to be touched, or having personal space invaded. But questions were harmless, and she so badly wanted to ask but before she could Scythe had left to do her own exploring. Even without answers to her own questions.
"Oh, see you later then!" Tamah called after. Ah well, no matter. All of this was very likely overwhelming and a lot to take in, there was plenty of time for her to ask the new member questions since she was now part of the family. Speaking of which, another fellow member showed up. Hm, perhaps now was the time to consider getting better with names, because she couldn't really remember them, either. Only their appearance stuck out, which was partially because the way they usually wore their hair up. Such as instead of wearing a regular and common pony-tail they had it to the side. Her attention seemed more focused on the male who had knocked over the gun racks, though Tamah still offered a light wave of her hand with a placid expression to be polite. At least there was a name labeled on the clumsy gentleman, but she was rather sad to see that he kept quiet even after Jared helped him out. Shy, perhaps?
Tamah's attention was caught when she noticed Natalie turn toward her, becoming curious when it looked like she was about to tell her something but the response never came when the whole building began to shake. Just like the others, Tamah was completely caught by surprise... but she was also excited. "Woo!" she cried, spreading her legs apart while turning her upper body to the side, raising her left arm before her and bending it with the other trailing behind. "Check it out, it's like surfing on the ground!" Of course it wasn't really, but as she moved her legs along with the shaking ground it actually did appear for a moment she was riding waves instead, only stumbling a few times but otherwise seeming balanced.
When the tremors subsided, the young woman actually seemed disappointed. She shrugged it off quickly, though, suddenly donning on a more neutral expression once again while returning to a normal stance, as if nothing had happened. Swiftly her hand raised to lower a kind of band from her head set, likely to be mistaken as the one that held it together ((you know the part that rests on your head with each "ear piece" at it's end?)), until it completely covered her eyes. First she only saw darkness, blinking repeatedly in habit to adjust her eyes but soon lights glowed within the band and in a matter of seconds she was in the world of technology. On the outside to those observing her, they were excluded from that world and couldn't see what she saw, only catching her hands making strange movements as if she were moving invisible objects.
"Well, that wasn't an earthquake," Tamah said aloud. "There aren't any news reports and there's no shifting in the ground. The tremor wasn't really strong enough, either. There's a overhanging cliff nearby, though, and a rock slide just happened."
