[There's a few seconds of shuffling papers before Fred finally speaks.]

So I'm assuming we're going to start getting an influx of people soon, if previous patterns are anything to go by. [And they are.] I'm kind'a having trouble making ends meet, and as it turns out, I live in a hotel. There's a few rooms that are in good condition, and I'm

[Well, you could move into the HoA, but that's a step away from living together and Chuck is twelve kinds of unprepared for that.]

I think the best time to advertise is about a month after the influx starts, when everyone gets kicked out of the Towers.

I figured the timing was off, but it's been pretty... empty here. [A mental shrug.]

[paterelohim]

There are always people looking for roommates, though.

If it's too boring or empty, you can definitely hang here. Even when I'm at work, you know, the door's definitely open.

[Maybe not to his exact apartment, but to the House in general. Kitchen! Den! Pool! Etc.]

[aintnorain]

It's alright. [She has the sound of shaking her head in her voice.] I'd rather try and accomplish something that would help.

[That feeling of not exactly meshing is creeping up again. This could keep her busy and do something good. Two birds, really.]

[Well, he needs a place to put his stuff that isn't a storage unit. And the caves, while great for a few nights, don't really sustain for full time living arrangements.

No, he's not lonely. That would be nonsense. He certainly doesn't miss having a normal house like a normal person.]

What kind of rent are you talking?

[audio | private | hard to hack]

[aintnorain]

I'm pretty negotiable. [Power and heating are pretty covered every month. But it doesn't leave much else. And while she's spent a lot of time getting the lobby and second floor pretty up to date, it's been a little lonely.] Do you have any sort of income? And what size room?

[audio | private | hard to hack]

[limitedrun]

Course I got an income. [He was about to tell her how much he makes to prove the point, but then realizes that's probably a bad idea. There's going to be an upcoming part where he haggles, right?

He's so bad at this.]

There's more than one to choose from?

[audio | private | hard to hack]

[aintnorain]

Single, double, and rooms that have a living space and kitchen. [It's okay. She's bad at setting a price. She doesn't know how much rooms go for.]

[st_murphy]

How did you figure that?

[aintnorain]

Found an abandoned hotel and started fixing it up. Been working on it since August or so.

[st_murphy]

I mean about people showing up.

[aintnorain]

Oh. Every two months, people show up in little groups. It tapers off eventually.
