( closed ) boring, cheap, & cheerful

[gitanes]

Who: The merry crew of House #30, or: Cayde-6 (exorion), Cheryl Blossom (sweetwater), Lila Zacharov (gitanes), & Peter Parker (webdesigned)
What: A meet and greet. Peter develops an ulcer, probably.
When: After Descent Log #3.
Where: House #30
Warning(s): Definitely language I'm pretty sure, otherwise idk.

[It was a beginner house just like any other beginner house: kinda small, kinda cramped, not very much personal space. Two mean girls, one robot, and one super-nerd enter. Who will leave?]

[Probably not Peter. Let's just be honest.]

[The second Lila walks in, she puts her hands on her hips and makes a proclamation:]

This place is a dump.

[It really isn't. But Lila's ungrateful, and coming directly from a penthouse in Manhattan via a trip through a garbage swamp, she's not in a position to be pleased with anything.]

I can't believe there are only two rooms. Not that you could really call these rooms. Everything's so open. [Gross.]

[sweetwater]

There are jail cells larger than this. [ probably, anyway. the scowl on Cheryl's face says she feels just as excited as Lila does about their new home. ]

What do they expect us to do? Share? [ they can't be serious about that, can they? Cheryl doesn't share anything! well.. until now, anyway. ]

[gitanes]

[Gross. Sharing. Gross.]

Seems like that's the idea. We're supposed to treat this like summer camp or something?

[DOUBLE GROSS.]

[sweetwater]

Ugh. [ she doesn't even know where to begin with all this. ]

This can't be right. There has to be a secret door to larger bedrooms or a second apartment. I can't stay here, my claustrophobic will act up.

[gitanes]

[Oh, cool. She hadn't even thought about that. It's not actually that small--smaller than she's used to, sure, but not atrociously small--but now the thought's planted in her mind. Thanks, Cheryl. So much.]

Maybe you're on to something. There could be a second apartment out there that's not being used. Nobody's stopping one of us from taking it over.

[sweetwater]

And who could tell us no? It's important that we're comfortable in our new home. [ she looks around the apartment again... why this? what have they done to deserve this fate? ] And this is not comfortable by any means.

That being said, it seem highly unsafe for any of us to be alone. We don't know what's out there.
