[ Jack's been largely off network for about a month, other than replying to those whom he's closest with. But there's too much to do and too many people who needed him to not be uselessly hung up on his own issues. So he faces the console screen with something much closer to his usual good cheer and Baby Tooth is perched in her usual spot on his shoulder. ]

There's been a lot of new people lately so I thought I'd bring this up again. My name's Jack Frost, this is Baby Tooth and I'm... kind of in charge of the Welcome Center here in the city. For anyone who's arrived lately, the kedan who showed you where your suite was should have mentioned it to you.

[ There will be a location ping that shows a very centrally located address, one that if anyone else in the city has tried to procure a business of their own will know is normally unavailable. ]

If you need anything that the kedan weren't able to provide at your suite, let me know and I'll see if I can track it down. Don't worry about if it costs money you haven't got yet. I've collected information about the city that'll help you get settled in and they're in brochures, there's books you can borrow that aren't in kedanese if you want to borrow them, like a library. Just bring them back in one piece, 'cause there aren't that many and we only seem to get more when we visit a mainland. Oh, and I have a list of some kedan shopkeepers who are willing to take on Foreigner employees so they can start working.

If you want to volunteer some time, just let me know. You don't need any kind of experience, just be willing to answer questions and help people learn about the city.

[ He thinks for a moment but can't come up with anything he's forgotten. ]

Yup. I think that's everything.

[Oh. Now this is convenient!]

Oh, so you're Jack! Rapunzel told me all about you! -Well, not all about you, but you know, enough. Anyway- I'm Anna, and I was hoping I could help out at the Welcome Center! [She laughs a little, brushing some hair back from her eyes.] Hi?

Maker boy, you really need to spend more time in the sun.

[Wonderful first impression there Hawke, as always.]

I've got far too much time on my hands lately.

Sign me up.

[In other words, she needs distractions like woah.]

[She was hanging out in his windowsill. One leg lazily swinging over the ledge below. Back rested against the wooden frame. Eyes closed. Inhaling the fresh air. At a glance, it would seem like she was blissfully ignoring just about everything the boy was announcing over the Network. Maybe tuning in and out at the sound of certain keywords or phrases. Otherwise, lost in her own world.]

[And yes, the moment he hung up, she lazily turned her head in his general direction.]

If you're not careful, Jack, you're going to run out of money trying to take care of the entire city like that.

You need more money?

[A long pause.]

We need to talk.

[hisbabygirl]

[That's all very helpful, Jack, but Sarah's full attention is on Baby Tooth.]

Oh my god, she's so cute!

Do you mind if I see that list about kedan shopkeepers? I figure it's about time I get a real job. [And the Welcome Center, huh...] Also, I'd say I'm up for volunteering!

[Despite the map and the directions from the Kedan, it takes Russell longer than he expected to find the place. He hasn't been here long enough for anything to look familiar, and he gets turned around more than once, distracted by the people, the buildings. Pretty much everything. Still, he finds the place eventually and looks it over. It looks good, very new, very clean. He scrapes non-existent dirt off his shoes before coming in.]

"Hello?" [He calls, looking around.]
