IC INTRO - JUNE '18
After the fight with the siren has settled, those characters with phones hooked to the KEystone network will get a text -
Okay, everyone, you had better come back in. There's a storm brewing just off the coast.
Even given Up's usual professionalism, it seems rather... subdued?
----
For once, there are no androids at all to greet you upon your return, or arrival, as the case may be. A shelter has been set up for the boats on the shoreline of Glitterstone, however. By the time you tromp up the lighthouse stairs to the level of the Station itself, the sky is beginning to grey with the promised storm.
There's not the typical feast outside, but there is a fairly extensive taco bar set up in the common room, left unattended as well. The room sign-up sheet and boxes of freebies are also there, complete with the Braille versions, and a note at the bottom of both room sheets reads "If all rooms are full, space has been made in the meeting rooms on the top floor. We'll have additional rooms available as soon as possible."
It does appear that someone has updated the murder counter while you were away, however, for the turning of the week. It now reads 15 weeks without murder.
Other than that, you're free to explore, including in the newly finished sections of the Annex (should you be willing to brave the storm to get between buildings). However, wherever you go, the androids are almost conspicuously absent - even in the medical bay and Down's workstation in the command center.
The meeting room they have for their own private use is securely closed and locked.

At least it's not a bear, she finds herself thinking. ]
Well, that was rude of them, wasn't it? Don't worry, though, Elize-chan. We'll keep and eye on you until they can come find you. You and Teepo.
Have you had anything to eat since you got here?
no subject
[She really, earnestly believes that. Because they're her friends and friends don't abandon each other. So they'll be here.]
Oh! Um... [Elize pauses, looking down as she thinks. Well, now that she thinks about it...] No, not yet.
no subject
[ She's not quite certain of the Station enough to give a proper tour, but she can at least show Elize how to get too and from the kitchens and the rooms. That's a good enough start. ]
no subject
Yeah, chow time!
[Elize blushes slightly at Teepo's outburst. Well, he is awfully loud, after all.]
no subject
[ Yuuri seems to be taking it in stride, at least. It'd be rude to do otherwise, and again: at least he's not a bear.
Off they go, then. ]
You don't have any allergies or anything, do you? There's plenty to eat and we've got all sorts of leftovers, but if you need to be careful then we can fix something up.
no subject
Yeah, Elize'll eat anything!
[Elize quickly pulls Teepo down a little.] D-Don't say it like that...
no subject
Alright then. That makes things easier, doesn't it?
[ She'd thought the girl was all by herself and maybe that's not quite the case. It's concerning that she's here at all, but she obviously has a friend with her. ]
And what about Teepo? Is there anything you'd like?
no subject
[Dang it, Teepo, don't just blurt out stuff like that. Well, speaking of her friend...]
Oh, um. Teepo doesn't eat. Or, not food, anyway. So he's fine.
no subject
[ And here's the kitchen – she's picked the one that'd been closest when they'd set off, but of course she doesn't know which room Elize is going to take. Oh well. ]
Here – there's another kitchen, though, so don't get worried if someone's using this one. There's a laundry room in here too, if you need to wash your clothes.
[ They should really start thinking about putting together a map for newbies... ]
