Lili ==> Search for Library (or something like that)
Making sure not to wake Brutus, Lili tiptoed away. Instead, she decided to look for some sort of library... the base was kind of fancy. Maybe they had an information hub if they had a communications room?
> Searching for Library...
> Dice Pool 3
> 3 Successes on Search
> Huh... there wasn't a library before but now I guess I kinda...
Lili exited the hall which seemed to connect all the living quarters, figuring that wouldn't really be a place for a library. Logically, anyway. Instead, she backtracked through the hallway which her groggy mind felt was the way back to the comm center. Then, when she got to the end of the hall, where they'd called up Felix the day prior, she looked through a doorway to the right.
The door was already open when she got there and inside was Germana, sitting at a cozy-looking armrest, absorbed in a book she held in her lap. The room itself changed thematically, from the simple, neutral grays of the hallway to tiled floors with a faux-fireplace and cozy rugs. The room was more textured than it was decorated, as many rugs added to the warm nature of the room.
The walls were impossible to see, as they were littered with bookshelves filled with books. All of them, however, were written in the Octarian dialect. Not impossible to read, but even from afar, Lili could tell they would take time to sit down and understand.
It seemed that Germana hasn't noticed Lili. What now?

Alga ==> Search for Someone
Groggy from just getting up, Alga decided to shake the sleep off by taking a walk and looking for someone. Maybe they'd know where the bathroom is...
> Searching for... someone.
> Dice Pool 3
> 1 Success on Search
> Well... you'll find someone.
Alga left the room and immediately she was hit by a buzzing sound. But... that was familiar... something about it... as she got closer, she could make out that it was... snoring. Well, she was in the living quarters and it only made sense that someone might still be sleeping.
As it turned out, this "someone" happened to be Brutus. The sign outside the door in crude handwriting with subpar spelling made that horridly clear.
So... do you wake him up? Or keep looking?
Damn it, I forgot this is a quick action. If you do one this time, I'll respond within a day... this was my bad.

Canchi ==> Yes, this is a Telltale game.
"So..." Canchi began, drawing out the 'oh,' "how long have you two been living here?"
"Umm..." One began to stop and think. "I think... w-we've," he began to look to the door his mother had disappeared into. "we've, um, been here? Uh..."
"Two months," came Beth's voice, confidence where One's was stuttering.
"Two months?" Canchi echoed. "And I haven't seen either of you during that time? Someone's packing a ton of Zekko Hoodies or something..." he quietly mumbled.
"...what's a Zekko? Wh-what's a hoodie?" One asked, legitimately curious.
Cross Radar ears as one of One's powers. Canchi thought in response. What's next? Telepathy?
"Zekko is a clothing brand and a hoodie is a shirt or sweater with an addition for your head, which is a little... thingy for it. Keeps out the cold and rain too." He explained as best as he could.
"I see..." One mumbled. "But yeah. I'm not, uh, s-supposed to talk about coming here."
"I'll explain in a little bit," Beth noted, from the other room. "Do you prefer sugar with your tea? I don't, but I can get it out if you do.”
"I like sugar with my tea. Just a bit though, it'll become sugary water otherwise." Canchi replied.
"Got it, I'll bring out the cubes and you can choose how many you want."
"Okay."
Canchi waited for her return from the other room.
It wasn’t much longer before Beth returned with a teapot covered in a cozy and a cute, Judd-themed ceramic filled with sugar cubes. She didn’t hesitate to set the cubes or the pot down on the table, which made Canchi think it would stain the table in passing… before realizing the cozy would prevent that.
An odd thing to note as the mother set down coasters followed by teacups.
That was when they heard a knock on the door and Magabelle was invited in. Everyone has arrived. What now?

Magabelle ==> Go To: One's House
Well, things were at least a little cleaner now. With that out of her mind, Mag worked her way out of the house--over the sound of the vacuum cleaner, it wasn't hard to slip out quietly. She didn't want to interrupt her dad, after all.
The outside was looked a little neater, with the largest obstructions out of the way. Trees and power lines were picked back up quite efficiently and sorted off to who knows where or repropped up. There was still plenty of wreckage, mind, but it made the short walk to her neighbor's less alien than before.
Mag knocked on the door and, in time, Beth opened up. "Come on in," she said, warmly. "I just made tea."

Max ==> Examine Mental Map
The sewers were as rancid as he remembered them. Max had been down here once before, considering a plan on attacking the monsters that lurked beneath... but it had never gotten far. As such, Max had no idea as to where he would be going.
The sewer, as he'd entered it, had a maintenance bridge that allowed him to walk in one of two directions... neither of which led geographically in the direction of Inkopolis Tower.
So close, but so far. He'd entered in through the sewer grate nearest the Tower, making sure no one was looking as he did. He'd hoped that it would be clear which way to go but... no dice. There had to be something... anything he knew that would make this clearer...
...but nothing came to mind. He'd just have to keep in mind the direction of Inkopolis Tower and search from there.
If you start searching, let me know. I'll respond within a day if you poke me.
