second; but you don't realize it yourself

[So, since no one discouraged spamming the network, Rose is posting, again. This time, she's indoors, at a shiny new apartment.]

Sooo, hey. I figure, I'm new here, some of you are new here, some of you are old hats, whatever. We should break the ice! And by that I mean I'm super bored. So. I'm having a party! Matisse, Genessia City, Room 102. Best way to break in a new apartment, right? Right. I've got snacks, soda, movies, and most importantly, we're gonna have a bunch of rounds of Truth or Dare and stuff like that. Everyone's invited as long as you have your magic pendant-y thingy. Don't think too hard about that part, please. See you soon! I hope? Seriously, everyone should show up, please.

Action;

[Rose has, true to her word, gotten a big party setup going in her apartment. Soda, snacks, etc of various types are around, she's got a bunch of extra chairs, the apartment is clean, there's some movies playing in the background for noise, and now she's just waiting for people to arrive.

If you arrive very early, you might hear her muttering to herself:]

Was this a mistake after all, are people really going to come, it's going to suck if I bought all this and no one shows, but it's probably fine, people here are friendly, but maybe....

[... Yeah.]

That's good. I hope I can get settled in as quickly. There's a lot to get done after all.

[She giggled like it was a joke, but she already had a checklist ready to work on starting tomorrow.]

There are five cities, correct? Including the main city. Which one do you live in, if you don't mind me asking?

[serrata]

Yes, that's right – though I haven't really seen much of them, myself. I'm living in Fayren and doing a bit of work in Windgate, so that's where I'm spending most of my time.

[heribbon]

I'm sure as time goes on, you'll see more of them. My apartment is in Nova City. I haven't had a chance to look for a job yet, but I may try to find one there as well.

[serrata]

At least you've got a little bit of time to decide before you have to make a choice – those little welcome packs they give us all when we get here definitely have their uses.

[heribbon]

They do, but the sooner I find something, the better.

I'd like to try and make my apartment feel like home as soon as possible. And I'd prefer to save my starting money for only the necessities.

Even so, its hard to resist the want to shop for those things ahead of time. [She giggled.]

[serrata]

Oh, I completely understand. If you're going to be staying somewhere in the long term, making it feel a bit more like you is one of the most important things.

I suppose there's nothing to stop you from window shopping though, just to give yourself ideas. You could start making plans for how you want to set everything out, and that sort of thing can be fun, too.
