hey, so i got some pricing info on places to stay. seems like even one of those ridiculous repurposed cars are about 2000N which would be paying to trade down so, no? ever. looks like a studio apartment can go for around ~12000N. i saw a few 2 bedrooms like that, which would be 6000N a month split 2 ways. they're still not that great, everything else is trending up from that.
i get the feeling that it might be a little hard to rent in the nicer areas, though. got some weird vibes talking to some of the landlords, and they were understandably hesitant about renting to people from other worlds entirely. i guess it's not the most stable situation if you think about it?
[ He just. Doesn't lead in with who this is because Chuuya's lame and picked his name as a username. So's Momo, though, but he added some frills... ]

[As well as the username, Momo only ended up chatting housing with one person, so at least it's pretty easy to guess who it is.]
Oh, you've been busy! I've had my head too far into other stuff lately (*/ω＼*)
[Like trying to suss out the entertainment industry here, and the mood of the city, and the weird brain fog-like situation he's had going on hasn't been helping. So he appreciates the extra info.]
Looks like we're gonna have to wait a bit then...
Money aside, if the landlords don't want to rent to us then we'll be out of luck anyway (´•ω•`๑)
It's early days, so I can understand them not wanting to take the risk
I doubt they're lacking for locals to take the spots (;＾◇＾;)ゝ
[Even if it's a closed ecosystem, so to speak, he's seen how densely packed the city seems to be.]

yeah, that's another issue. i'm not even sure if just 2 people will be enough for a split? i guess we can keep an eye out for more people if need be, but i'd like to eventually not be in dorms owned by the people who brought us here specifically.
[ Just as a personal preference!!!! And he doesn't know anyone here from home. ...again, not that he'd room with most people he knows willingly. ]
people seem to be calming down some, but who knows how long that'll last?

Yeah, I don't mind another person if that turns out to be necessary to get somewhere decent o(〃＾▽＾〃)o
It'll be nice to live somewhere more private, it's been years~
[Any surveillance happening in the Valentia aside, Momo is unfortunately used to paparazzi holing up in the building across from his back home to take photos into his apartment. So even multiple roommates is more private than that.]
I really hope things stay cooled down...
I get people being upset, but lashing out is just going to make everything worse for everyone (´⊂_｀人)

let me know if anyone comes to mind eventually. seems like a lot of people here do know one another from their respective homes, so i assume a lot of them will stick together.
[ So he's just decided that he and Momo can be LCWs over in a corner? Apparently? Don't question it, Chuuya just knows he doesn't want to be stuck in the dorm housing forever and he's practical enough to know he needs someone to split the load if he doesn't want to end up in a terrible car apartment. ]
i think the worst i've seen anyone do is wreck those annoying robo things?

Sure, I'll keep an ear out when I'm chatting to people~✧
See if we can't hook someone else flying solo
[Or someone who isn't but doesn't necessarily want to house with their own world's people.]
I had to stop a few people from doing that... |ω･`)
But that's still lashing out, right? Not to mention that fight pit...anything short of incapacitation is still a lot of potential harm
[He almost got a chunk taken out of him by a dire wolf, and did take a bite to the stomach that's still several truly disgusting shades of bruised. The only reason it's not worse is that he was Shifted into something with an exoskeleton that took the brunt of the hit.]

you're almost definitely the more social one between the two of us, or better at faking it.
the fight pit was kinda fun but i threw a few fights because people weren't into it. i'm not really a fan of fighting for entertainment, but it was a good chance to try using that shit and testing it out. i'd really rather just hook up with someone for a spar away from prying eye though.

It'd take a lot of energy to fake with how much I socalise ( ◞･౪･)
Yeah, both of my pit fights ended up staged even though one started real, but my partners chose to take the dive...
I was on the same sorta logic, I wanted to test the powers somewhere safe (´・ω・｀)
Though I should probably brush up on my fighting a bit more considering how experienced most people here seem to be
[Having a good grasp of self-defense and where to hit people to bring them down quickly doesn't compare to actively having to fight for one's life on the regular like a lot of the people he's spoken to.]

Sure, sure~☆ I'm so used to being busy I need more going on to pass the time anyway ( *’ω’* )
We were going to split one of them, but...something happened to her on the way out, I think. I couldn't contact her to arrange it, and I haven't seen her since (*´ｪ｀*)
The one before left while I stayed in the arena, and she didn't even mention it - I don't think she was comfortable with the arrangement at all, even getting something out of it...
Oh, would you? I've got a good handle on self-defense stuff but I don't have to use it that often at home, so if you're more of a fighter then that'd be super helpful!! (○'ω'○)9

Ahaha, some jewellery business you must've been running~!
Though how vague you were being about your job did have me wondering what was hiding underneath (*´艸｀)
I'm up to do it pretty much whenever you're available, I'll try not to get rolled too quickly (ノ*゜▽゜*)

Oh, you're into the proper underworld stuff, then?
[The awfully casual phrasing of that might be a giveaway that this isn't Momo's first time getting to know someone with underworld connections. Chuuya has been a lot easier to get on with than most underworld types he's met, though.]
Nights are fine with me, gives me something to do when I'm so used to staying up late anyway (੭ु˙꒳˙)੭ु⁾⁾

yeah, i'm looking for some kind of job for the saving up to get out plan. pretty sure any "good" jobs are out. tagging katalyth is one thing but i don't think it can be a sole income source without some negotiation...
so getting some practice in will be helpful to keep me from feeling like i'm gonna claw my eyes out.

okay, so. i guess i should warn you that the living together idea now comes with the probability of someone breaking into the place on the regular. he wouldn't do anything but be annoying & you would be allowed to throw him out each time though. security measures won't really work but throwing him bodily does.
in case that's a dealbreaker

Are we talking "break down the door" breaking in or "lockpicker" breaking in~?
As long as we don't have to pay for damage I don't really mind ┐(´∇｀)┌ I'm a hard guy to annoy
Does this mean someone from your world showed up ( *’ω’* )?
[He does remember Chuuya mentioning spotting someone he sounded a bit vitriolic about during their first discussion, so he would not be shocked if that's come back to roost.]

lockpicking. he won't break the door or anything he's just fucking annoying and can get into anything if he feels like it.
and yeah. you'd recognize the name if you met him and he didn't give some bullshit alias. dazai osamu.

Ok yeah I can live with that ˚✧₊⁎( ˘ω˘ )⁎⁺˳✧༚
Dealing with paparazzi has raised my tolerance for annoying household things I guess~
Oh, I remember you had a bit of a tone about him when we first talked...
I'm gonna laugh if the bullshit alias just turns out to be a different author from my world though (*≧▽≦)ﾉｼ))
