....Oh! That's right. It is.

[AS IF LITERALLY JUST REMEMBERING THIS]

Don't even remember the last time I had a roommate. This should be fun.

[ "Fun," uh huh. they'll stay up all night doing each other's hair and everything. ]

Do priests not share living areas either?

[ he'll take a quick glance around ]

... Pretty sparse, huh?

Maybe in school, but not in the last several years at least.

[He's nodding a bit as he looks around.]

Pretty much. But I guess I can count our blessings given our captors could have made us live on the street.

So that's what, 50 years ago?

[ bc Hansa is just So Old etc etc ]

Don't say that too loudly, or they might charging us rent. Have you seen if there's any beds?

[ sleeping on the floor is a step up over the road, but only a little one. ]

I'm younger than you, ouch.

[he will say this so matter-of-factly like this is a Fact obviously,]

Sure, knock yourself out and see. I only just stepped in.

[ yeah it's a Fact Hansa's a Liar ]

Wow, you're 15? I never would've guessed.

[ his voice fades a little as he pokes his heads into all the rooms. two bedrooms, a bathroom and... that's it. ]

I think I saw some bedding back on the first floor- ooph.

[ there's a squeaking! and a creaking! it's the sound of a window opening to the great outdoors! ]

Yep. I just look older than I am.

[He will follow Ludger, leaning on a wall as he sees him open the window.]

Need the fresh air? I guess its nice to get oxygen in here.

[ :sus: ]

The air's a lot different here than back in Trigleph. It'd be nice if the circumstances weren't so strange.

[ hmmm, for whatever reason he's poking his head out of the window and peering around ]

Eh... it's a little far...

Far?

[dryly:]

If you're planning on jumping, at least let me bless you so your soul goes to heaven when you do.

I'm not gonna jump.

[ exasperated! ]

I haven't seen anyone go into the units next to us, and I haven't heard anyone moving. I wanted to see how far the windows are from this one.

[ he stretches out a bit more over the sill, hmmmm, he doesn't see any lights... at least not from this angle. ]

Maybe we should break down the door next door and say hi to our neighbors?

[isn't that just breaking and entering?]

Oh. Yeah, I guess that's the fastest option.

[ judging by the sigh and the way he reluctantly pulls his head back in, he wanted to break in- i mean, commit an unannounced welfare check through the window. ]

I'm surprised there's so many rooms here, actually. Do you think it's ever been fully occupied?

And the safest! And not out a window!

[Yeah, he got that sensation Ludger was planning a window heist.]

That's a good question. Personally, it doesn't feel like it. Then again, this place bucks all the rules. I mean, a whole place for...what? A couple of handful of people?

It's only a little far, not too far!

[ do it for the Vine, Hansa!!!! ]

It's way too well stocked for just us - I keep finding more vegetables in the kitchen, even after I use a bunch. And that's not even mentioning the ghosts.
