bathed in scarlet from the setting sun
Who: Yuuri and you!
What: Yuuri does something that bears a passing resemblence to settling in at the Keystone Station. In practical terms, this translates to sticking her nose into just about everything and doing a metric fuckton of stresscooking.
When: The week or so following the IC intro log.
Where: One prompt in the kitchen closest to Room #43 and one in the annex! As well as a general wildcard.
Warnings: Nothing currently worth warning for! Some passing references to murdergame unpleasentness might come up in the comments, though.
[ It's been a few days since the group of new arrivals landed back at the station and apart from the little pizza party set up for them, Yuuri hasn't really been up to mingling. She's not been shut up in her room, but she's been keeping to herself and the people she knows, for the most part. It's safer that way.
Restlessness is a funny little thing, though, and when you've started getting used to a life beyond staring at four walls again, it creeps up on you faster than you'd like. So as anxious and wound up as she is about this whole... everything, Yuuri figures that there probably isn't any harm in starting to familiarize herself with their new surroundings.
She mostly sticks to the main building, like she doesn't want to stray too far from the people she'd arrived with. While she's out and about, you'll mostly find her on the viewing deck and the roof – nice, outdoorsy places. If you want to catch her for anything, you might as well do it now. ]
annex
[ Yuuri's already looked around the annex briefly on her first night here, but she'd been a bit too frazzled to really take any of it in. Now, though, she's more prepared to explore.
She starts off poking around in the changing rooms, with a slightly hopeful look on her face. This whole setup looks very much like a public bath and her hopes are raised even higher when she opens the door and sees what looks like a huge bath. But then she gives the rules a proper look, sees the words hot tub and scrunches up her nose. Boo, disappointment.
Thankfully, the greenhouse is much less of a disappointment. She gives the place a long, slow circuit, and without even realizing it, she's already started to smile. After having a whole garden to tend to, the downsize in Tokyo had been a little hard to get used to. But a whole greenhouse? She's right at home.
If you're the planty sort as well, you'll probably find Yuuri here at some point or other, tending to the flowers and the plants with the easy, practiced hand of an experienced gardener. It's the most relaxed she's looked since arriving. ]
kitchen
[ Because of course Yuuri would end up in the kitchen. Of course.
It's not a one-off occasion, either. There's kitchenettes in each of the apartments, of course. But those seem to be a little too small for Yuuri's purposes. Mostly at mealtimes but occasionally at odd hours, too, you'll find her in the kitchen, busily cooking enough food to feed an army. Most of it is Japanese food, but some of it's decidedly not. And sometimes it's not even food at all, but baked goods.
But it all looks and smells very good so you might as well come and investigate, right? ]

Well, I'm not modest enough that I'll tell you not to call me that. You can grab a bowl if you'd like a serving before I start putting it away, though.

[ and there goes a big ol' helping of beef stew right into the bowl. ]

[Connoisseur of neathy delights she may be, but there's still something uniquely satisfying about good, rich, surface-raised foodstuffs. Even the most well-adapted human citizens of the Neath are on some level creatures of the Surface by nature.]

[ it would sort of suck if the lady she just made a big show of cooking to ended up hating her cooking, huh ]

Very nice. I think you're right, though, it could use a little while longer to simmer.
no subject
[ And back to the broth to give it a considering little stir. ]
I'm glad you liked it, though! There should be plenty of it left over if you want some for yourself later.
no subject
Ah, but I don't think I caught your name? I'm Sonja.

[ What with the interdimensional kidnapping and all. ]
Have you been here long?

How are you settling in?
