[ Some people, when they first come to a brand new place, like to introduce themselves. They maybe get to know people, socialize and make friends or at least make nice with those who have been around longer — you know, that sort of thing.

And then there's this guy. ]

Tell me you have a clinic here.

Or a bar.

I'm not picky at the moment.

[ There's a newcomer wandering the halls of the mansion today, the brim of his baseball cap tipped low, body language cagey at best. He's doing his best to keep his head down and his hands firmly in his coat pockets — except for when he's got his device out and is tapping out messages to post to the network rapidly. It isn't long before he comes to a stop at the stairs between the fourth and fifth floor, lifting a hand to rub at his temple idly as he lowers himself down to sit for a moment.

He seems tired — exasperated, almost, but run down more than anything else. And if he happens to bear a resemblence to another recent arrival, well. That's probably entirely coincidental. Probably. ]

And that's not all! As a part of our package deal, you have access to the closets, which can provide unlimited amounts of almost any item you can think off. All absolutely free!

[ elena's passed off the newcomer's pamphlet which has been very informative, if not also entirely bizarre. ]

What a treat

"Almost" any item?

Almost. No grabbing specific items that were left behind.

And by that you mean . . . ?

Say you wanted your favorite, one-of-a-kind, chair from your living room. The closets might give you something similar to what you want, but it won't be the particular item you requested.

So, an imperfect replica?

That or nothing at all.

No middle ground?

Interesting

On the other hand if you want high quality cigars, there's no trouble. Just think, open the door, and it's there.
