How did you get into this building? This apartment room? What the fuck is going on? Let's refer back to this page for a semi in-depth, wow so detailed, explanation of your current situation. You'll also have a letter slipped under your door with some explanation about your whole coven situation, as well as info that explains you have magic now! And yet what kind of magic is conveniently left out. Are you up to speed? Great. Now, here's the question of the hour: what are you going to do about all this? A ▢ If you're the sensible sort and want to explore your new digs before slinking around Shehui, you're in luck! You've got easy access to your apartment, and it's luckily not on lockdown right now. Feel free to check out your room, raid the fridge -- oh, and saying hello to your roommates should also be on your to-do list. B ▢ Let's say that hanging out with these people is a little overwhelming...that's fine! There are plenty of things to do in the apartment building without interacting with roomies! There are vending machines to prop up, a leisure floor that contains a totally vacant air hockey table and a nice garden to relax in. C ▢ But ah, there's also venturing outside! Out front is the job board, which is a nice place to hit up if you're looking to add to your currently fat but depleting credit account. The problem is that the jobs are currently disappearing quickly, and those around you aren't giving you such nice looks. This apartment building is a known problem area at this point, and your signet doesn't do anything to settle their fears.

D ▢ With new year's week coming to an end, the residents of Shehui are feeling more celebratory than somber now. A lot of businesses are closed in order to enjoy themselves and ring in the new year the right way. A lot of restaurants and bars are currently offering specials, from free drinks to cheap food in order to pull in the holiday crowd. If you're looking to meet people and socialize in Shehui, this is the best way to do it. E ▢ Also because it's the post holiday season, stores are trying to push out the rest of their overstock merch. One item of note that's being peddled quite often is a cell phone. From tiny flip phones to the latest Orange product, cellphones are a necessity in this modern society. Get yours right now and begin texting right away! There are a few social apps that are installed, so you might be lucky enough to connect with another coven member! They also have Redmolar capability, which will automatically allow you to text those with phones in the area. Maybe send some mysterious stranger texts? F ▢ While you're hustling around Shehui, you may realize that the telepathic messages get stronger -- perhaps the new coven members are near? In general, you may be subject to telepathic messages about current Shehui goings on, random thoughts or requests to meet up at so-and-so location. A.K.A. let's utilize that telepathy...it may not last forever! G ▢ Because the week of remembrance is still going on, flowers are littering the streets, though most of them are dead. Bunches of flowers are being sold, and flower fortunes are a popular activity during this part of the holiday. There are fortune tellers on the street who will give you your flower of the year, but it's more fun to have them read with one another! There are digital cards that you can buy that will allow you to read fortunes on the go -- simply tap the screen of the card and your flower will be decided. Not happy with your choice? Too bad! It won't randomize to something different, no matter how hard you try. H ▢ While a lot of Shehui citizens are trying to avoid the coven members like the plague, a small alien child isn't so much concerned with who helps her, just as long as someone does. She accidentally left her house's door open and her five new kittens are suddenly missing! Where are they? Who knows! But she'd certainly like some help looking for them. I ▢ As the day winds down, snow falls on Shehui for the last time this season. The government is getting rid of their supplies that create the festive weather. This is old hat for older coven members, but for newbies? You better enjoy the snow while you can. After an hour or so, it piles up enough to truly be utilized for merriment...this also means that it's pretty easy to get snowed in if you happen to be in a building during the snow fall, which also creates some interactive opportunities. J ▢ Wildcard! How will your character interact with this new and unusual world?

I am. I take it that you haven't run into the others yet?

[ She can't help but smile. She's glad that he's well. ]

I'm glad that you're doing alright.

I was. [ To answer his question. ] Would you like to look for it together?

[dividepain]

Does that mean everyone's here too?

[ If this is true, it's such good news! ]

Of course! I haven't made any progress yet, to be honest. And that girl is still so sad...but if we have a look around together, I'm sure we'll find them all.

[humenity]

Everyone except Rokurou. Have you run into anyone else? [ She's assuming that he hasn't seen Velvet just yet... ]

You're right. [ She says softly. ] We can go over where we've looked, and then look where we haven't together.

[dividepain]

[ Does she assume that because Velvet wouldn't let him wander around alone... ]

Oh...I hope he'll join us soon, in that case.

[ He's not too worried about him—Rokurou can take care of himself, after all—but it would be nice if they were all together. ]

Okay! I walked around the girl's house a few times, but her neighbors didn't allow me to check if they're not hiding somewhere nearby their houses. I wonder why is that...

[ Laphicet remember them talking about some explosions and a festival, but that's it. ]

[humenity]

[ Or vice versa, really... ]

... Let's listen to their advice. Knowing how cats are, a lot of them will usually stay from people unfamiliar to them, anyways.

[dividepain]

That's what I'm worried about...

[ What if they don't manage to find them? That girl was already heartbroken and Laphicet definitely doesn't want to bring her bad news. ]

Where would you hide if you were a lost kitten, Eleanor?

[ This is...definitely an interesting approach to the problem. ]

[humenity]

[ ... Interesting, but it's not a bad idea, persay... ]

... My guess is that I'd hide where others wouldn't be able to find me. Though, there is a chance that we could lure it out with food or something else that cats like.

[dividepain]

You'd lure me out immediately with mabo curry...

[ Wait, that's not what they're supposed to talk about— ]

Um, what I meant is that maybe we could buy some cat food? Or maybe even a fish?

[humenity]

... It's true that I can't exactly imagine you saying no to mabo curry.

[ She has to smile at that. It's... a little off topic, but still. ]

Those two might work. We could see if we could get a hold of some tuna.
