[Oh look. Claire is once again atop some rooftop or another, thoughtfully staring out at the night sky.]

It looks like we're all going to be stuck here for a while, doesn't it? I was hoping that someone from home would end up showing up, but I guess my luck is pretty much staying as awful as it was back home.

[And despite the melancholy, she

I was invited to share the hospitality of a group joining together for mutual security. But, I have also taken occasional shelter elsewhere. [She doesn't say, but it's the back-stock storage loft of one of the upscale shops.]

Are either of those places in an actual house, or just in one of the shops around town?

One is in a shop. [She admits that much. The other is with some of the Normandy crew, wherever Ashley deemed secure.] This district does not have a large number of residences, not compared to public spaces, from what I've seen.

Are you looking for a place?

[She nibbles at her lower lip, and nods a little.] I might be. I haven't figured out if staying full time in one of the shops counts as an actual home.

[livethecreed]

I have found a place that is suitable. It looked like it could use some work, but it isn't falling down around me.

Do you need a place to stay? [His paternal instincts are kicking in and he refuses to not offer help to someone who looks younger than his own son.]

[regeneracy]

I'm staying in a shop right now, but I'm not sure if I want to turn it into an actual home just yet. [She awkwardly smiles, feeling a little ridiculous.]

I'm trying to figure out what all my options are, I guess.

[livethecreed]

The same as me. Hopefully we'll be able to find houses sometime soon; although the office buildings might suit our purposes better than the stores for the time being.

The same as the rest of us. Unfortunately it seems we're at the sit and wait stage of things.

[regeneracy]

How many office buildings do you think are here? Maybe we could turn the offices into apartments.

Nobody from home showed up here for you either?

[regeneracy]

Nope. Most people would probably be happy about that, but there were some things going on back home that I need to know ended okay.

[shimmerly]

I'd be happier if someone I knew was here, to be honest. [:c]

[regeneracy]

Yeah, me too. I'm starting to feel like a little kid with how much I miss my family.

VOICE.

[regeneracy]

I'm already staying with a friend I met here, actually. [She admits this a bit sheepishly, and lets out a soft laugh.]

I'm trying to figure out what everyone else is doing, so maybe I can find an actual house and stop staying in a store. It's great to be here to find new clothes, but it's not really much of a home.

But hey, thanks for offering.

[ouch. that's...kind of a depressing way to think. Ray smiles, gently.]

Don't be so hard on yourself. It could always be worse.

[She tries to smile for the nice adult that's attempting to humor and make her feel better. She tries really hard, but falls flat.]

I know it always could be worse, but I'm not sure I want to say that and invite worse things to actually happen while I'm here.
