You guys usually have weather like this? Nothin' but rain and sleet... it's enough to get anybody down. [He looks back at the video feed, grinning.]

That said, since the weather's keepin' me in, thought I'd bug ya all with a question or two.

First, I'm tryin' ta fix up a place to stay. This place doesn't happen to've dragged in a hardware store or somethin', does it? Anyplace I could pick up some tools? Be nice ta get my hands on a bit of paint an' plaster, too.

Second thing is I've been hearin' a lot about what happened last week, and somebody told me weird things happen every other week 'round this joint. Anybody willin' to tell me stories about what they've seen when? You never know, maybe we can figure out what's comin' if we look at what's happened before.

Hm, all right. Somebody mentioned the mall for art stuff - sounds like it's worth checkin' out.

[He's making notes industriously on a couple scraps of paper.]

So you could feel discomfort, just not express it?

Exactly. We never get much warning.

Just the regular schedule, huh. [He shakes his head.] Well, thanks, little lady! I appreciate the help.

How've you been?

Just fine. Trying to winterproof our own house a little bit, but that's not easy.

I hear ya on that. That's what I'm lookin' for the tools for, honestly -- got a couple cracks in the wall where we're stayin', busted window, that kinda thing.

[Chuckling.] Not ideal for snowy weather, that's for sure.

Maybe there's something we can scavenge from other buildings for you. Insulation or - something. Those cracks will definitely need to be filled.

There's just the one big one, but a little extra insulation couldn't hurt. Stuff in a bit a fiberglass and then plaster or clay over it, maybe...

[Shrugs.] Seems like it's gettin' ta be wintertime, so the sooner the better.

Well, if you need any help, the girls and I will do what we can. I can promise that much, Hanekoma-san.

Thanks for the offer, Tomoe. I think we oughta be okay, but if it's lookin' like we need help to get it done before the cold weather hits I'll give ya a ring.

[Mami flashes him with a sunny smile.]

Not a problem. Some other people may be able to help you with information about the events that happened before I got here, and you may be able to look over the networks, too.

[greatcuppajoe.livejournal.com]

Some guy who's been here a couple years is givin' me a bit of description -- I'll probably hit the networks tonight. [After it gets too dark to work on the house. He hasn't found anything that might make a decent lamp yet.]

[stepford-smiles.livejournal.com]

I've got some errands to run, but you seem to be settling in well. Please take care, Hanekoma-san.

[Another flash of a smile, and she ends the feed.]
