::Basil unlocks the door and walks inside with Lucia.::

"Here we are. This is the living room and kitchen, which is separate over there as you can see. That door's bedroom one, that door's bedroom two, and that's the bathroom. Bedroom one has an en suite bathroom, which I'm sure you or guests will appreciate."

::Lucia nods. Yes, of course the en suite bathroom will be for the guests... She clears her throat and sips her tea again.::

"Thank you, it's perfect."

::She surveys the living room with a grin.::

"Wonderful."

::Basil grins.::

"Well, why don't I let you get settled and make arrangements for your things and we can sort out rent later? Here."

::He presses the keys into her hand.::

"If you need me at all, I'm right downstairs. Enjoy yourself."

::And he leaves.::

::Lucia tosses the keys in the air and... drops them. She looks at them on the floor for a moment before stooping to pick them up. She tried the toss again and succeeds.::

"Home sweet home."

::She settles on the couch, appreciating the apartment that she can now call her own.::

::After sitting for ages and almost dozing off, Luce decides she should probably go out and run some errands. And even though she currently has a full bank account, she decides she should try and find a job.::

(My bank account will only last so long.)

::She walks about her apartment a bit before heading out into the hallway.::

::Lucia enters her apartment, closing and locking the door behind her. She strips down near the door to her under garments and carries the mass of wet clothes to the washer and plunks them in. She then crosses to the bathroom where she showers. Mmm, shower.::

::Mmm, really long shower. Now properly pruned, Lucia finally turns off the water and begins to dry off. She heads to her room where all her clothing and belongings are somehow put away nicely and whatnot. She sits on her bed listens to the sounds of rain and thunder outside and sighs.::

(First day is quite uneventful.)

::She's ignoring her few first attempts at her power and decides to relax with a book.::

::Almost halfway through said book, Lucia realizes she's read the same sentence about twelve times.::

(Gah. No more reading.)

::She stands and paces a bit and then approaches the door. She looks out her peephole into the hallway and sees part of a person. Poor Luce, with the liking to be around people and not knowing anyone yet! She takes her chance and steps out into the hallway.::

::Lucia enters her apartment again, straightening out her pajama bottoms.::

(It's still early.)

::She curses TPTB for allowing time to pass so slowly. She also curses herself for already being ready for bed. She sighs and pads to her bedroom.::

(I wonder where I put it...)

::After a few moments of thought, she drops to her hands and knees and looks under her bed. She pulls out a mega-sized shoe box and sits cross-legged on the floor with it before her. It has no cover, so she simply lifts a hefty book from it's interior and opens the cover.::

(Retrocognition...)

::It's a book based on Wicca, a dictionary of supernatural powers that her mother gave her when she was young. There was never a proper explanation, except that it might be useful. It looks a fair bit old and the title page is ripped out.

Lucy flips through and finds what she's looking for:

retrocognition: also known as postcognition; the possessor of this skill has the ability to see the past via channeling energy through an object or by channeling energy on the notion of calling on a person's past or past event....::

::Luce reads the definition a few times and then again curses the evening sky for not advancing more quickly. She's wasted her first evening here and also valuable time for practicing her power and learning more about it. She closes the book and returns it to the box and then to the space beneath her bed. She climbs onto said bed and then attempts to sleep, hoping the night well pass quickly.::

::Lucia wakes and stretches, grimacing at her gross morning mouth. She climbs out of bed and immediately goes to brush her teeth. Having showered the night before, Luce dresses and moves to the kitchen.::

(Longest night ever!)

::She heads out, taking her keys with her. Hallway.::
