[The blond appears in view with an indifferent expression and a cup of tea next to her on her dining room table]

As some of you already know, I have a couple of empty rooms in my apartment that need filling. I’m not going to be overly picky about who fills them as long as they can pay their share and mind their own business. The apartment is on the third floor of Fatality Condominiums and there is a lovely new garden on the balcony. Those who can cook, garden or clean will be considered first.

On a similar note… [she glances around for a moment before lifting the mirror and pointing it at a black and white kitten sitting on the back of the couch watching her curiously.] This was left behind and needs a home ASAP. I think its name is Jerry or Jesse or... something. Anyway, first come first serve, there are some items that can go with it, some need to be fished out from under the couch and probably the beds as well.

[Lily almost moves on after the message but then realizes the location of the apartment mentioned is somewhat familiar even if she doesn't recognize the girl.]

The third floor of Fatality Condominiums? Are you Nanami?

[Video] lol what with putting in Nanami's new garden and all XD

[morecowbell]

I am, who's asking?

My name's Lily Ivory and I was acquainted with the Pharaoh. Did he disappear too? [Since she's looking for roommates...]

[morecowbell]

Yes, Miss Ivory, both my roommates, Sugata and the Pharaoh have been sent home.

[vintage_magic]

[BREW sure seems to be busy lately. Although she'd never spoken to a Sugata.]

I see. So, he's gone too. And you don't think he'll be back? When did it happen?

[morecowbell]

Sometime around the twenty-first. As you can see I made sure to give ample time before making any hasty announcements in case it was a fluke.

[vintage_magic]

[A nod. If it's been ten days, a return seems unlikely.]

I'm sorry about your roommates. I left instructions for caring for the plants with the Pharaoh when I put the garden in. But if you can't find them, I reckon I can write a set for you.

[morecowbell]

[Nanami may seem cold but she does actually miss them.]

Yes well, it happens around here. I am very good at flower arrangements but taking care of a garden is completely different story. Perhaps I can offer you compensation to upkeep it?

[vintage_magic]

Ah, are you not good at gardening? I suppose I could come by once a week for pruning and larger tasks but I don't know if I'd have the time to do more with my other work. I'm also the gardener at the park and run a shop of my own. And the plants would have to be watered more often than that.

[morecowbell]

I'm not.

I'll look for the instructions and make an attempt at keeping them alive until I can find someone to look after them then I suppose.

[vintage_magic]

You could try giving the local gardening supply place a call and seeing if they can recommend anyone. But most of the things I planted are drought resistant so they should be okay even if you miss a day of watering in the meanwhile.

[morecowbell]

That's good to know, thank you, Miss Ivory. I will certainly call them shortly.

[vintage_magic]

All right, Nanami. If you have any other questions about the garden, you're welcome to come find me at the park in the mornings or give me a call. [A smile and a nod and if there's nothing else for now, she'll end the call.]

[morecowbell]

Will do.

[a mutual hang-up here.]
