[Things have gone back to being quiet after the Caliban run. The news of both Gilgamesh and Beatrice gone still weighed a little heavy in her heart. Fatigue from fighting during the Dark Hour frequently got to her as well. When the tea house gets a little slow, she goes upstairs to the attic to take a nap. Wake her up?]

Text (back dated to 24th, locked to April):

Hey, April. I just saw Beatrice is gone. I know you're going through a tough time now and I want you to know you can always come to me for help. Let me know if you want to play with Sirius to cheer yourself up, okay?

[Issei is just searching for his host to talk to her. When he finds Saori, he hesitates a little before going to find a blanket.

Having found one, he sets it on her and goes back downstairs to wait.]

[Saori eventually wakes up, a little confused about the blanket that suddenly covered her. She didn't remember having one when she came up here.

She finally heads back to the first floor and sees Issei.]

Oh, Issei. Sorry, were you waiting for me this whole time?

It hasn't been too long.

[needsteaplz]

Okay, that's good. So, how can I help you today?

[unknownrival]

I'm just here for the tour and some tea.

[needsteaplz]

Sure thing. Let's start off with the tour then.

Well, obviously this is the cafe area where everyone is welcome. All Personae users will get a small discount here of course.

It's upstairs that'll be exclusively for everyone on the network. I realized we need a small base of sorts on property that was owned by one of us instead of that Trey character that owns the hotel.

[She leads Issei to the storage room where the folding staircase to upstairs is and brings it down.]

I plan on keeping this place locked in case we have some people snooping around.

[unknownrival]

I see, that's very clever.

[needsteaplz]

Thank you.

[Saori leads the way back up to the base. It's a fairly spacious attic. There's a sofa and coffee table. She's kept it fairly spartan for now.]

I figured since this place is halfway between the hotel and Caliban, this would be an ideal place for a base. Plus it would be a good place to hide our weapons and supplies. We can use here to also rest up either before or after the Dark Hour and meet up to organize parties into Caliban.

How long has it been set up?

[Even though April won't admit it, she did tear up a bit at that message.] Thank you, Saori. I'll make sure to take you up on that.

And would it be alright if I bring Chitose along?

Of course she's welcome to come along too! I'm sure she could use some cheering up too. Sirius is upstairs in the attic, and so you can pick him up whenever you like.
