[She steps inside, flipping her fur collar down to uncover her ears.]

What a waste. The fire damage is extensive, and unfortunately none of the money I had when I arrived is usable. Finding a way to help repair that will be troublesome...

[But she's going to do it anyway because the place was pretty and she actually liked it there.]


And this wind is getting on my nerves. [Catches sight of a pamphlet in her room and scowls harder as she reads it before wadding it up in a ball and tossing it in the trash.] Really. Is that supposed to be some kind of joke?

( Private//hackable )

It seems as though the officials have offered me living quarters until further notice. Ch', it beats spending all my paycheck on a hotel room for Hyne knows how long. Now all I have to do is find out where Lawrence Street is.

[Looks oh-so-delightedly-thrilled about this, but whatever.]

Also, does anyone have any concrete information about these phantom marks I've been hearing about? I have a feeling I'm going to need to know about this in case the proverbial shit hits the fan.

[There's a young woman dressed in what looks like black motorcycle riding leathers, a dufflebag slung over one shoulder and a large scabbard strapped to her back. She's scowling up at the nearest buildings like she's annoyed with everything, and in a way, she is. She's on a cellphone, and is attempting to be polite.]

I wish to speak with the President please. ...What do you mean? Yes, the President of Template of course--what? Mayor?

[She glowers even more darkly, her lips pressed into a tense line. She pulls a folded piece of paper out of her jacket, unfolds it, and looks it over again before putting it away. She is Not Amused. This does not reflect in her voice, as she remains calm and collected.]

No, it was simply a misunderstanding. Thank you for your time.

[Snapping the phone shut with one hand, she sighs heavily, reaching up to rub a scar on her forehead as if to ease a building headache. Somewhere, somehow, something had gone wrong. Again.]

Coming soon!
