[ Hi, Lunatia. Have a somewhat bored looking woman here, sort of gong bonkers sitting in this new apartment or exploring at random. She isn't good with this whole preventing herself from going stir crazy thing, but has for once opted to reach out and take other people's recommendations instead of meddling her way through. ]

So far as settling in here, I need a few things. I was hoping someone might be able to offer me a good suggestion or two to look in to on a few items so that this isn't.. quite so jarring.

[ Spoilers : it'll be jarring no matter what going from a glassed-in, engineered Utopia to a nuclear wasteland to a place that's not too far off Romdeau barring, you know. Lack of social and genetic engineering. So hey, up and up.

Long, pale fingers are counted on as she goes through her items: ]

One, I need a place to shop for clothing. I can't keep wearing these things every day.

Two, I'm going to need a place to train or, maybe, a trainer. Getting back in to a fitness routine now that I'm not on the Rabbit every day will be an improvement, I think.

Three... [ She pauses, seems to waver on this one, and finally comes out with it as if it's begrudging : ] ...I guess I'm going to have to learn to cook at least somewhat. Without Iggy or Vincent I'm at a loss, here. So, if anyone can give me instructions past a 'pinch' of salt in water for noodles, I'd appreciate it.

If anyone has anything to offer on any of these I'd appreciate it.

[ A curt little nod, and the video ends. ]

[Ren usually does this sort of thing in person, but they didn't really talk about it when they met, so he just figures he'll reply to this instead. He opens with a cheery wave, seemingly sitting back on something (and with a pair of black cat ears that he definitely didn't have when they met last).]

I can't really help with the training thing, but PrismaPlace, that big mall on Level 1, and Caihong, the really busy market district on Level 3, both sell clothes. Level 1 would probably have closer things to what you're wearing now, though.

And I do know how to cook a little bit, so I could try to help you with that, though it's easier if I know what kind of stuff you like to eat. [Assuming she even knows, given what she mentioned about her previous circumstances.]

there's a place called the spicy subject that i get my clothes at

been hitting the gym i'm not sure if that's what will help you train but it's better than nothing

what do you generally eat

[On the screen is a young man sporting a pair of cat ears atop of his head. If that's not obvious enough, his cat tail can just be seen, idly moving behind his back. There's a look of obvious interest in his eyes, because oh boy, one of his favourite topics!]

It really depends on your style, but there's heaps of shops in PrismaPlace! And Caihong have some stores with different types of styles.

Looks like most folks got ya covered so far...

[In case it's not obvious two syllables in, this man has a hell of a Texan accent.]

I'm used to cookin' on my own. Usually had to do it for either myself, or a crew of about eight other fellas. If you don't mind a little southern cuisine, I can get ya some recipes.

I know a bit about cooking. Won't make you a Michelin chef, but at least you won't die?

You used to be on a rabbit every day?? How fun!

I might shop both just to see what they have... [ Let it not be said that Re-L doesn't like to shop - if she still had the kind of money she did in Romdeau she'd be on an absolute tear right about now. As it stands she just wants out of the clothes she's been wearing since she left Romdeau to go and find Vincent.

Even small steps are better than none, right? ]

For now let's not put any limits on it.. though I have found that sweet things aren't necessarily my wheelhouse.

Spicy subject? Sounds interesting.

A gym would be suitable enough but I think I work best when held accountable. Especially with so much food choice around here.

My choices were much more restricted in Romdeau but here... I do know that I don't have a taste for doughnuts, however. Too sweet.

I'm open to trying different things. [ Might as well, now that she has the chance, right? Bright colors and frills will probably still not be her thing, but she mat give it the good old college 'try' so to speak. There's a part of her that wants to ask about the ears, etc, but.. she stops herself.

At least for the moment. ]

More than likely, though, I'm going to default to black.

[ For a girl who has no idea what Texas is... yeah. The accent sort of quirks her interest for a moment. A brow raises and her head tips slightly, as if a bit amused. ]

I've never had any, so consider me interested. I only know I don't like doughnuts here.

I can't so much as boil water so it's an improvement.

Better than beans and dressing, too, I would imagine.

the clothes are all right. i guess i could show you

im sure someone can help be your sparring partner here but a gym might not be a bad start

i can't do anything fancy but i could probably show you some things i guess. you ever have italian?

It's.. not how that sounds. [ Okay, she knows what a rabbit is and sounds like, so there's a good idea of what they're thinking - ]

It's an air ship that's for some reason called the Rabbit.

I can teach you how to make burgers and sandwiches at your place. They're pretty low-effort foods, good to practice with.

Alright then. I could message ya some recipes. I'll keep the doughnut thing in mind, though... too sweet?

[He mainly asks to get a gauge of her tastes.]

If they're just alright is it really worth the trip? Other than if you're saying some parts are fine and others aren't. Then I understand at least.

Honestly I'm not too sure. i usually just had whatever Iggy prepared or where ever I met with Daedalus for dinner, which was usually the Cradle and they didn't really label their foods with that sort of thing.

Who knows if they even still know, considering how long it's been with Domes.

Much too sweet. [ But, again, this is coming from a girl who lived in a dome post-nuclear winter so. You know. Taste buds might be skewed a bit and her tune may change after more exposure to candy. ]

It seems like something Daedalus would've sworn me off of even if they did exist in Romdeau.

Fine with me. It's better than nothing at all or trying my luck with the food around here.

Though I guess that would be a semi-interesting lottery to play in a way.

Black, huh. You can make it your main colour, and wear accessories and other things to look good.

[Unless she wears all black, then... okay. It's not his style, and it's her choice in the end.]

Well, I usually wear red, but lots of stores would have black clothes. It usually can match with almost any colours.

Can't say I'm familiar with either of 'em, but I'll keep that in mind.

Before you start gettin' any messages from a stranger, though - I'm Dell. Dell Conagher. Most folks call me "Engie," but you can take your pick.

50% of their clothing are pretty good. 50% of it is garbage. worth it to me honestly

all right so sounds like you gotta experiment a bit with some food. there's a guy here named italy who makes some good food actually and you could try his stuff. if you like any of it, some of it's pretty easy to make.

Well, better than wearing the same thing day to day, so I'll have to comb the racks either way.

Italy? I'll see if I see him in passing or on the network.

Probably better that way then just tracking him down..

[ Let's go with mostly black, sometimes purple, and lots of blue eye shadow. ]

That's the bonus of it, isn't it? But typically I prefer darker colors.

I don't think you'll ever see Daedalus around here. And if he does show up he'll be the most overbearing Doctor in this place. [ But then again she'd been more of a pet project instead of just another fellow citizen he'd created, so.. there's also that to consider she thinks. ]

Engie or Dell? [ A pause, and then she can't help her curiosity : ] Why "Engie?"

that's the spirit. they have a sale this weekend so that's when i'll be hitting it up personally

fair enough.
