[ a new voice comes across the network today, low in pitch, fantasy british, but with little inflection, like this is a person who is used to hiding her innermost thoughts. she considered using the video function, but she's still a little too cautious for that. ]
Right. So. Got a few questions. First: Anybody got a lead on good coffee 'round here? Best places, preferred makers or types? Haven't been this long without a cup since I was a teenager.
[ and nobody wants to see her make her own. it'll work for her, but, well.. the results are terrifying. ]
Second: I may be in the market for something to do. Back home I've a reputation for finding things, researching. Might be interested in helping out.
[ people who are good at reading between the lines can pick up that she means she is definitely interested in helping out and putting her expertise to good use. ]
Third: Any leads on writing ink? My pen could use a refill and I have more than a few notes to go over already.
Fourth: ...nail polish? Or is that too much to hope for?
[ this is something of a distraction. yes, she loves keeping her nails painted (specifically in teal) and her eyeliner game is to die for, but a lot of what she's asking for is also a way for her to judge who reacts and how. those reactions will tell her a lot about the type of people are here and who can potentially be trusted for what, who has what kind of information, and the like.
her connection game starts here. ]

[ and truth be told, her wall is still more organized than half of what comes out of bellara's mouth. if the lighthouse crew can circle her thoughts back around to the task at hand, they can deal with neve's wall of notes. ]
And here Lucanis gave me a wounded look when he discovered I boiled a pot once. Will definitely have to try it. [ to be fair her coffee also turned to sludge and the assassins' poison expert called it "unsettling." ] Thanks for the recommendation. I think it's different from what Lucanis makes at home, but coffee is coffee. All I need is something hot that keeps me awake.

[ Pffft. The thing is, the consistency could be completely off if not done right. So it could turn into sludge, he supposes. ]
Kavs has that style. Personally, I wouldn't suggest ever having me around dishes or a stove or whatever else belongs in a kitchen. It's definitely not the place that I thrive.
[ Because he is, in fact, a poison expert himself ]
Anyway, it'll be interesting to see what you make of this place after a while.

[ she's the one woman mage clean-up crew for a reason... ]
I'll let you know. Check back in after a month or so.
