Hi, I'm Jason. I'm new and had some questions.

I heard living arrangements here are kind of a free for all. How do people find themselves a place? I get that it's all just up for grabs, but do how do you know which are actually available? Do you just knock on doors or try to open them randomly? I'm kinda worried about just barging in on someone. Has anyone accidentally walked in on someone that forgot to lock up?

And what's the longest anyone's been here? My friend Leo said he knows someone who's been here for more than a year.

Thanks in advance for any answers.

Easier said than done, dude.

I don’t think it’s that hard.
Well, whatever. Why isn’t Leo helping you out, anyway?

Leo let me crash with him but it's not really a comfortable setup for multiple people.

[ hell it's not comfortable for one person, leo's just crazy. ]

And I think he likes having his own space anyway.

I guess that’s fair. I don’t think I have that many neighbors, if it helps.

Well, you might end up with two soon depending on which place we pick.

Oh, so you’re looking with a roommate too. You’re bound to find a place big enough at least.

Yeah, at least size doesn't look like it'll be an issue. Hey, how long have you been here? Have there been regular seasons or periods of cold weather or anything? My roomie was wondering how cold these tree houses get.

Just a few months, so I couldn't tell you much about the seasons. But it was snowing when I showed up, so it's been cold most of the time.
Usually. The weather can't make up its mind sometimes.
It isn't too bad at my place, but it's small and the fireplace warms the space up well. I'm going to guess it isn't that much worse somewhere bigger.

[His responses take a bit, partially because he's actively flying around, partially because of dyslexia, and partially because he's juggling multiple conversations.]

That's good to know.
Do people die here? My roomie was looking for a graveyard.

[ uh, ]

What does he need a graveyard for?

[ uh, ]

Aesthetic?

[Nico's goth, it's not necessarily a lie.]

Don’t tell me they’re one of those weirdos who likes to hang out in them.

He's not weird, it's just a family thing.

[ technically true??? ]

So are there graveyards here or not?

[ what the HECK kind of family thing..... ]

I dunno. I haven't exactly gone around looking for one.

[ because she's normal, thank you. ]

Maybe? I guess they have to do something with the people that croak around here, unless that's one way to wake up back home.
