♡ Call 001 [video]

[reassigned]

Gooood morning, Saeng Song!

[Oh my god, who could be that perky this early in the morning?

Three guesses, and the first two don't count, as the winged, pink-haired girl on the screen waves cheerfully at the camera, apparently enjoying the fact that it's 8 am and she's awake. She's also already worked out, had breakfast and planned out the majority of her day- what a champ, amirite?]

I'm one of the most recent arrivals and let me tell you, someone definitely picked the right girl for the job!

[She clasps her hands together, and when she pulls them apart to gesture at herself, a small, glowing deluge of small hearts scatters from her hands and disappears.]

My name is Cupid, goddess of love- and I'm here to help in whatever way I can!

[Wow. Someone sure is... happy about this, isn't she?]

So! If you need advice on how to approach someone for contact, or even just a helping hug or two, I'm the gal to talk to! You can come find me in room 2-08 in building one, or- as soon as I get it working- hit up my inbox and leave me a message!

And of course, don't hesitate to come talk to me about any kind of romantic problems you might be having either- it's what I'm best at, after all!

[She smiles thoughtfully, then nods.]

Why not? It's not as if I have anything scheduled, here. I might as well take a look around if I'm going to be stuck here a while.

[Pepper sighs ruefully.]

[reassigned]

Used to being on a schedule I take it?

[But she nods her agreement.]

Either way, I'll hop downstairs and meet you in the lobby?

[spicyworkaholic]

[She chuckles.]

You have no idea - and the lobby would be fine. I'll see you in a few minutes.

[Coffee with Cupid. It should seem strange - but between what was going on her own world and the fact that she still wasn't completely certain she wasn't dreaming or dead, enjoying a latte with a mythological being seemed almost comforting. Unlike some 'gods' she wasn't leading an army of aliens to conquer the world.]

See you there!

[Cupid is, for all intents and purposes, as benign as deities come. She's not all that inclined to meddle with people unless they ask her help or advice, and she's not much for fighting either.

She is, however, unbelievably friendly, so Pepper had better be prepared for a quick, surprisingly strong hug when she arrives.]

[spicyworkaholic]

[Pepper is wearing business casual when she makes it downstairs - old habits dying hard despite the fact that she has anything but business to do in this city. She's looking around curiously for the person she met on the network.

Bright pink hair shouldn't be hard to find, should it?]

[reassigned]

Oh, over here!

[Cupid can spot someone in a crowd with alarming accuracy- but thankfully the lobby isn't too crowded, and she makes her way over even as she waves Pepper down. She stops as soon as she gets to her, if only to be on sure footing when she reaches out and gives the redhead a hug.]

Hi! Love the outfit- very CEO-chic- are those heels Louboutin?

[spicyworkaholic]

[It's Pepper's first real physical contact since arriving in Saeng Seong, and she is instantly surprised how even the few seconds make her feel...better in a way she isn't expecting. When she had heard about the requirements for living here, she hadn't really believed them until this moment. Then again, maybe it's just in her head...

She gives a friendly smile at the compliment, surprisingly not staring at all at Cupid's wings or clothes. As CEO and PA before that, Pepper has met all types. She tends not to judge.]

I wish. They don't have any names I recognize here. There are some that look really similar, and have the same quality, but the brands aren't ones I know.

[The not-staring is appreciated. As self-assured as Cupid is, having people constantly question how real her wings are gets a little disheartening sometimes.]

Well that's a shame. I guess I'll have to do a shopping survey when I head out later. I'll let you know if I find anything the right quality for it.

[But she holds out her elbow with a light chuckle, tilting her head toward the door.]

Shall we?

[spicyworkaholic]

Keep me updated.

[The strawberry blonde says with a good-natured chuckle, glad of anything to keep her mind off the hard truths of her condition. She takes Cupid's elbow, surprised at a soft surge in good feeling, barely enough to notice, but there nonetheless. Maybe the 'touch' thing really does exist.]

Let's.

[reassigned]

[Cupid appreciates Pepper indulging her by taking her arm- and is then immediately surprised by how it seems to give her a boos of sorts, and she leads Pepper out of the building and down the road at a leisurely pace.]

I have to admit, this place is a lot nicer than the last place I was in. All that sand was murder on my wings.

[She leads a turn down a side street, which melds into another, and then points out a little black and red sign.]

And that's the place.
