[Sara had slipped out of the apartment as soon as she'd been able to, although she'd only gone as far as the entrance before she exhaled slowly and stared down at the device ] 

...Does anyone have a room they'd be willing to let me use until I can find a job or some way to support myself? I probably should have looked for one already but...things have been complicated. 

And by anyone, I mean, anyone female, really. I promised to stay put for tonight but in the morning.... 

 [ There's a red letter I on the screen before it pulls back, showing a very irritated looking Sara who's been trying to remove the thing since she'd woken up.]

...I guess this is what they meant by curses, but what is this supposed to even represent?   [There's an irritated huff before she realizes she's actually on the network and then covers the screen with one hand. ] 

Maybe Oniichan knows how to get rid of it or cover it up, at least. 

[And then it goes black] 

[ OOC So Sara's got the Scarlet :Letter curse..]

 [Locked to Charlie.] 

How much do you know about my brother...from before he came here? 

[Action otherwise.] 

[<small> Sara had been more or less avoiding the network over the past few weeks, trying to sort out her own feelings, but today at least, she'd ventured out into the city to try and clear her mind. At the moment, she's sitting on the edge of the fountain, just watching people. </small>] 

[The face of a bedraggled teenage girl appears on the screen, looking worried as she peers at it to make sure it's actually working. A finger taps the screen once before she decides it must be and then speaks.]

I'm not really sure what's going on here but ...does anyone have a place I can stay?

I...well....I don't really know where this is and I'd really like to find a place to dry off and maybe borrow a change of clothes? I...also has anyone maybe seen a girl named Ruri? We were together before I landed in the fountain and if she's here...

I'd just like to know if she's okay.
