video | slightly backdated | no shitposting here, nope.

[ Cashmere's coming to the network from Connor's couch, though Connor is not in the video and she does her best to not swing the camera around and reveal too much of her background. this is absolutely, totally not a shitpost designed to make Connor laugh. nope. (yes it is)]

I hope everyone is done being a bummer because I need everyone to get it together for an important message.

[ she takes a breath, as though this might actually be an important topic that she needs to discuss with everyone. ]

Should I cut my hair? [ it's hanging loose down her back, and she flips it forward over her shoulders. ] It's gorgeous, I know, but I look just as good with short hair.

[ she smiles. there's a spark in her eye that says she hopes you think her question is stupid and want to fight her on it. ]

Also, I'm looking for a housemate or two. Please submit a 500-word essay or 3 minute video describing why I should pick you.

Sounds like at least one trust issue there. [Natasha doesn't judge that, and she doesn't ask it as a question.] I can't blame you for that though. It's your hair.

You're not wrong. [ she's better about that - trust - than she used to be, but there's some deep rooted old habits she'll never be able to shake. ]

I already have a bald spot. Hope's not always so good at putting people back the way they're supposed to be.

[Natasha could hold back the dry snort of laughter her comment stirs in her, but she doesn't. Not quite. It's subtle, but a sign she's in on the joke.

Especially if it's not a joke.]

No, it isn't. But sometimes, that's what you have.

[She lifts a shoulder.]

So you're going to cut it yourself.

[ she likes you, Natasha. and she can see why Connor does, too. ]

Well, let's say that I am my own first choice for the job should such a decision occur.

Fair enough. Let me know what you decide, though. Curious to see how this turns out.

[Not that Natasha's exactly invested, but she's devoted this much time to it... and it's an excuse for a second contact, if another one doesn't come up.]

How's the search for a roommate going?

Off to a good start - I've already found one person. There's still a few empty rooms, but I guess there's no rush.

It'll just be nice to have someone else around.

One is a good start. And it's not like we're splitting bills around here. If you wait a while to get another...

[A shrug.]

Who'd you land?

Jack. Do you know him? He's friends with Connor, too.

If it's the same Jack, we've met. He seems like an interesting guy.

You could do worse for a roommate.

I think he's the only one. Plus he has a pet, which is always a plus. [ her roommate standards are clearly very high. ]

Does he? What kinds of pets to people have here? Doesn't seem like the kind of place that has a humane society.

More... carnivorous plants popping up when new people show up.
