[ Chuck was not the kind of girl who took misfortune lying down. Sure, it might be scary and disorienting, waking up in an unfamiliar place and realizing that someone must've undressed and then redressed her in her sleep but moping about it wouldn't get her anywhere. Besides, after her last conversation with the Piemaker this sudden change of scenery came as more of a blessing than a particularly rotten cherry on the top of an already sour ice-cream sundae. At least it gave her something else to think about.

And so the girl called Chuck had distracted herself with picking out suitable clothing, fixing her hair and, which may or may not still be important, picking an alias. Now dolled up in a pretty red dress, scarf and sunglasses, she prepared herself for addressing the network that had humming with activity ever since she woke up, not unlike her own beloved beehives. ]

Hello... Marina, was it? My name is Kitty Pimms. I'm new here. I can't say I know a whole lot about prison etiquette, but it only seemed appropriate to say hi and this doesn't seem like your average prison anyway so... hi! It's nice to meet you.

And, uh... Olive? Emerson? [ A pause that could only be called pregnant. ] ...Ned? If any of you are around, now would be a good time to say so.

((ooc: Chuck is officially in Marina and with no memory of her 4th wall visit! She can be found wandering sectors 0, 3 and 4 if you'd like to bump into her! ))

	Me? [ Well... no harm in telling the truth there. ] I work in a pie shop, actually. And sometimes I help out this Private Investigator I know — no world-saving, guns-blazing stuff I'm afraid, but it can get pretty exciting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I suppose. You never know where life will take you, right? Mine just happened to take me there. [ With a pitstop in a casket on the way. ] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I suppose I'm not really one to talk about odd jobs. You should consider starting a pie shop here; I'm sure it would be popular with everyone. Well, almost everyone. I don't think vampires eat pie. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, I uh... [ Wow that is a terribly loaded suggestion. Not that he knows it. Not that he needs to know it. ] I'll think about it. I should probably find someplace to live first. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2013-09-07 06:53 pm UTC (link)
	[He's observant enough to notice when someone is uncomfortable, and tactfully lets it drop.] Well luckily there are quite a few apartments here. I'd be happy to give you a tour, if you'd like, or I could just point you in the right direction. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2013-09-08 05:36 am UTC (link)
	[ So grateful. So very very grateful. ] A tour would be nice, actually. It seems pretty weird to meet all these new people and not... you know. Actually meet them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's not far; I'm in Sector Four. I'll be there momentarily. [And so he is, suit as impeccably pressed as it appeared to be in the video.] (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ She waits patiently, idly wandering up and down the street to pass the time. Once she spots him she raises her hand in a wave, followed by a friendly smile. ] Ianto Jones, I presume? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	In the flesh. Nice to eliminate the communicators. They can get a bit old. Have you done much exploring on your own yet, Miss Pimms? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2013-09-13 11:50 am UTC (link)
	Just a little bit. I got some clothes- [ Swishing her dress for emphasis. ] -and I've been looking over the map, but there's still a lot I haven't seen. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2013-09-13 06:06 pm UTC (link)
	The clothes were my first priority upon arriving here a well. I'm not overly fond of orange jumpsuits. Have you managed to find any of the apartment buildings yet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2013-09-14 05:03 pm UTC (link)
	I saw the one over there... [ Pointing back towards the complex. ] I should probably find someplace to stay, huh? No sense in sleeping on a park bench if I don't have to. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

I wouldn't encourage the park bench sleeping, no. There's an apartment complex here in Sector Two as well as one in Sector Three and Sector Four, where I live with my, er, my boyfriend. [There's almost a question mark on the end of that statement. Its all quite awkward, mostly because he doesn't really like the word boyfriend but hasn't figured out a better one. Moving quickly along.] They each have similar styles, but they're all fairly similar in size and utilities. It really just comes down to preference.

[ She raises a brow at the "boyfriend" remark, but is far more amused than shocked. She thought he was pretty cute to begin with, but with this piece of news it shifts from "guy she could fantasize about while she's mad at Ned" to "darling gay sweetheart". All in all, it doesn't change much. ]

It sounds like I have some exploring to do. [ Smile. ] I don't really like the look of this place... too sterile, you know? Could we go to one of the other sectors?

[Its probably for the best she doesn't say so out loud. It would probably just lead to awkward stammering on his part since he's still not quite sure how to define his sexuality. He wishes it were something as simple as gay or straight but it's some murky area in between, and he doesn't like ambiguity.]

Right. The Clocktower Estates in Sector Four might be your best bet then. Its a bit cozier; almost feels like home. Which I never asked about, sorry, just realized that. Where are you from?

	[ Nodding happily. Having a cosy place to call her own is definitely top priority. ] Then that's where I want to go first. My hometown is Coeur d'Coeurs... it's on the west coast, but not a lot of people know of it. It's pretty small. [ And her canon never did like going into details. ] How about you? England..? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2013-09-16 08:05 am UTC (link)
	Right. This way, then. [A polite and friendly extended arm.] I'm afraid I've never heard of it, but the same can be said for a lot of places people here come from. And its Whales, actually. Cardiff. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	pushedback 2013-09-16 08:44 am UTC (link)
	[ Such a gentleman! She takes it with a bright smile. ] Oh, I've definitely heard of Wales. Never been though, I'm afraid. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well aside from the rift in time and space running through the center of it and all the aliens you're not missing much. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, if I'm supposed to ignore the rift in time and space... [ Amused. ] It sounds like an exciting place. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	readystopwatch 2013-09-19 06:48 pm UTC (link)
	It has its moments, I suppose. [They've reached Sector Four by now and he gestures towards the apartment building.] Clocktower Estates. There are plenty of empty rooms, last I checked. Most of them come fully furnished, but there are plenty of shops nearby for things as well. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[ She brightens as she studies the apartment building. Kind of like home, actually. ] Oh, that is nice! You know, I've never had an apartment of my own before. It's kind of exciting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
