[Sofia has done this dance before - arrive at a different world with it's own rules she has to obey unless she wants this world invaded by the enemies of her employers. She observed the necklace with curious eyes, even pulling out her own translucent smartphone to compare them for a second while she was walking, not even bothering to see where she was going and talking under her breath again]

Find a place, get a job. Sounds simple enough. Tedious, but simple... 

[Sofia rubbed the back of her neck and releases a frustrated sigh]

...Gah, feels like too much work. I'll do that later.

[While finding shelter and a livelihood is more important, her top priority right now is tea. She's less of a slacker once she had some of Oolong tea in her system]

Two different worlds before being dragged here and all of them had awful tea. [A sharp cringe] Should I go three-for-three?

Comments

[broken_trifecta]

Very interesting.

[Cherise wouldn't press further, then. She ordered a cup of tea from the waiter, but nothing more. She'd already eaten her lunch. The fact that there was an organization that habitually sent agents to scout out other worlds troubled her; why would they need to do such a thing? Were they searching for a place to invade and conquer with minimal casualties, perhaps...? No, she told herself, no sense dwelling on wild and paranoid assumptions.]

Magic is common in the world from which I originate. I wonder if you can do any spells or charms yourself?

[trigram]

I can shoot beams and fire magic missiles from my armor.

[Sofia shrugged. Without her suit, she's just a normal human being]

[broken_trifecta]

Now that does sound handy!

[She figures Sofia is probably a soldier or peacekeeping agent. It would explain the confidentiality. Their order arrives, and she takes up her cup of tea with a sigh of relief. Is there anything better on a cold day?]

Have you found a place to live yet?

[trigram]

[Nope. Warm tea on a cold day is the best]

No, I still haven't even looked. I should if I don't want to be homeless tonight.

[broken_trifecta]

Perhaps I can help. Is there anything in particular you require when choosing a flat?

[SIP.]

[trigram]

Hmm... I lived in a very modern penthouse in my world. Don't ask me how I'm able to afford it, I'm actually just borrowing that place from my boss. Well, it's very minimalist and bright. Sleek furniture and top-of-the-line appliances. So I guess I'm down for something more elegant and classical.

[broken_trifecta]

Ah, you might like Tupelo Alley then. That's where I'm staying.

[She takes another sip of her tea before setting down her cup.]

It has a swimming pool and a clubhouse. Neither are likely to be useful to me, but they're nice amenities if you care for them.

[trigram]

Neither are useful to me either, but I suppose I'll check it out. I might just go with that, I don't exactly feel like going out to search for apartments. Sounds like too much work.

[broken_trifecta]

[Cherise chuckles.]

There's no harm in looking around later, if there's something else that catches your eye. But Tupelo is more than comfortable, I think you'll be pleased. All of the buildings here are quite nice.

[...Oh, but then there's that one.]

Except Binford Gardens. Complete rubbish. Rent is cheaper, true, but it's hardly worth the discount if you ask me.

[trigram]

In my experience, a lot of complexes with "gardens" in the name usually are horrible.

[She grimaces of the memory of having to stay in one for a mission]
