[OPEN] welcome home.
WHO: Tuuri, Elliot, Akira, Yusuke, their two cats Morrigan and Katkat, ???, and kind souls like you who've gotten roped into manual labor- I mean, helping out your friends
WHERE: off-campus housing somewhere, close enough to the university to walk in good weather, far enough to bike if Akira wants to risk getting run over by a bus
WHEN: September 2nd, all day
WHAT: Move-in day! in which the house may or may not be haunted by a small child; rumor has it that he shows up in people's bedrooms at night and may disappear the moment you take your eyes off him (aka ??? is Pharos because I want to play roommate things too...)
WARNINGS: none
A.
[ It's a bright and early Saturday morning, and while each of the four roommates (the fifth being Ryoji, who is on "vacation" and it's an unspoken rule that nobody is allowed to talk about him) have already received their set of keys to the house, whoever gets here first gets first choice of bedrooms. Will it be Team Tuuri? Team Elliot? Team Akira? Team Yusuke? Fight it out, guys. Or be reasonable people and talk it out, idk.
There are five bedrooms to share or claim as your own, of various sizes and proximity to the kitchen and two bathrooms. There might also be a leftover dresser or coffee table left by the previous tenants, so if you want that, better sneak it into your chosen room and pretend that it was always there, before someone else comes along and accuses you of hoarding all the furniture.
Because unless you're bringing something from home, there is no other furniture. ]
B.
[ AKA IT'S IKEA TIME
Boxes lie in the living room— potential tables, chairs, desks, shelves, it might have been easier to ask friends for spare furniture they can donate, but at least the cats are having a blast jumping into the empty boxes (in the case of a little calico kitten, yowling to be let out immediately after, save her). It's like Christmas morning in here, except Lego instructions weren't this confusing and help would really be appreciated so everything can get put together in time for dinner without giving up and saying screw it all and just using the cardboard boxes themselves as chairs. But also please, for the love of all that is good in the world, only work on one Ikea furniture project at a time, keep close count of all the parts, and don't let the cats eat any screws. ]
C.
[ The house is a bit of a mess, but it's coming together. Someone still needs to make a grocery run or there's nothing in the fridge aside from like... half a gallon of chocolate milk, or a single stalk of limp celery, or a full ice tray that's decidedly not filled with ice because the cubes are opaque white and taste kind of sweet if you lick it (but don't lick or eat any of this stuff if you want to live). There are fridge magnets on the door that consist of an upside down V, a K, the number 1, an R, and another upside down V neatly lined up towards the bottom half of the door. There are no vowels anywhere to be found.
Mattresses are also pretty heavy and a pain to maneuver through the halls, so if you hear muffled shouting from inside one of the bedrooms and see a bed blocking one of the doorways, maybe save the poor soul trapped inside the bedroom and/or find whoever gave up halfway through and walked away from the job.
There's no toilet paper in either of the bathrooms, but there's a full bottle of black cherry merlot liquid hand soap that smells amazing.
The basement doesn't seem to have been aired out in years.
Nobody seems to know the wi-fi password.
This place isn't actually livable yet, but!! soon!!! ]
D.
[ Outside, there's a front porch too small to hang around in, but the backyard is open for everybody to take a breather as you take a well deserved rest/regret coming over to help. The lawn is kind of overrun with weeds, and the birdbath is dusty and empty, but otherwise, it's a fairly large yard. A pool could probably fit in the middle at the sacrifice of grass. A couple of apple trees line the fence out in the back, but while the fruit smile down at you all, it's hard to tell whether they're good to eat yet or not without grabbing them by the face and tearing them off the tree. Maybe test and see anyways, and there might be apple pie in it for everyone as a thanks for the help.
The front of the house features a driveway wide enough for two cars, or a single moving truck that hogs up all the space and forces everybody else to attempt parallel parking on the crowded streets. There's also a motorcycle propped up next to the porch, but it's still there after everybody else leaves. It's going to stay there for the next two-three weeks and nobody questions it because looking up the license plate will show it registered to somebody we don't talk about. ]

[ There are cardboard boxes everywhere, Helpers! Please take some home for your cats. And I know you or somebody you know has a cat, because Recollé is Cat City. Anyways, wildcard for anything else you'd like to play; make your own top-levels and meet up with roommates, friends, and neighbors. Roomies, thank you for getting all this hard work out of the way before Ryoji actually moves in, you guys are the best, ilu♥ ]
