Eefa can sleep through mumbling pretty easily.

Permalink

Pelape sleeps pretty late even though the curtain is very far from blackout. They were up so, so late. She walked so much.

Permalink

Eefa's been keeping odd hours but isn't going to leave the room without her protector. She has a bit of stale bread stashed away under her clothes but that's all she has so she's not eating it right now.

Permalink

Eventually Pelape yawns awake. Opens her eyes and looks at the room. Closes them and sighs very deeply. Opens her eyes again to check on Eefa. "You up?"

Permalink

Eefa nods.

Permalink

"Good call coming here, seems like a nice place so far probably. Did you have any plans for what to do if you made it this far or are we making it up from here out?"

Permalink

"Need to find food."

Permalink

"Yeah."

Permalink

Eefa can wait by the door for Pelape.

Permalink

Pelape cleans herself up with her power, reads the bathroom sign, visits the bathroom and comes back somewhat dismayed, and will then accompany Eefa wherever she wants to go.

Permalink

Eefa accompanies her to the bathroom and isn't at all disappointed by its state.

There's food in Elysium; two meals a day come with the room. It's great by the standards of the locality. It might be the best restaurant on the planet. It would probably get seven stars of ten from a reasonably discerning critic in Lina but Pelape usually eats at places that would get three to five because they're cheaper, so quality-wise it's fine, exotic but fine. Lots of fresh vegetables. Strawberries. All slightly alien to Pelape.

They get to spot Saffron in the dining hall. Prosperously plump, button shirt worn open over a shirt that doubles as a bra, cutoff jean shorts, the best-armed person in the room. She swings by where Pelape and Eefa are eating. "New faces - I never forget one and yours are new. Names?"

Permalink

"I'm Pelape Milath and this is Eefa."

Permalink

"Saffron Fall. You got let in overnight, and they forgot to check you for weapons - anything to declare? You haven't got to hand it over unless I don't like your vibe but I need to know."

Permalink

"I've got a pistol."

Permalink

"Don't have anything."

Permalink

"You know the rules?"

Permalink

"I read the sign about the bathroom and I was told that if we did violence we would die. Are there more?"

Permalink

Not many; Saffron rattles them off pretty casually.

Permalink

"And the rent situation, do you let people work for their keep here?"

Permalink

"Oh, of course, lots of people like that arrangement. What do you do?"

Permalink

...wow, she's just actually under no obligation to say "I'm a grey", is she. They don't seem to do that around here.

".......I have a telekinesis power that is pretty good at cleaning things and might also let me do other stuff I haven't figured out yet."

Permalink

"Covering the kid too?"

Permalink

"Yes."
