For those of you who show up and have no secured lodging with a friend or family member here, where do you end up staying?

[ From the clicking sound of doggy nails on the floor and the whining of you have the leash WHY ISNT IT ON ME RIGHT NOW YOU CRUEL CRUEL MAN, it would seem Yusuf is getting ready to take Pancake on a walk. There is a metallic click followed by a moment of silence. ]

Should anyone see Ariadne today, please ask her to stop by.

I found a comfy park bench.

Honestly, it's as if you can't take care of yourself for ten minutes.

[meaningful_connections]

And what took you so long to track me down? Met someone?

[waitinthecar]

I found the Welcome Center. They had pamphlets. And beds, imagine that.

[ Not... sure... he should add his two cents with this couple but.... ]

He did find his own park bench.

He has an interesting relationship with furniture. [ Mostly he sits on the floor. ]

It's a good question, the one you posted. There really should be more accommodations for people if this kind of thing occurs regularly.

[ Yep, she's going to be smooth. Cool. Not at all freaked out by interdimensional travel. (Well, a little. But she's hiding it.) ]

Your coat must be well insulated.

[ Because you kind of aren't, but nbd bro. ]

[meaningful_connections]

Didn't say it was ideal.

[diastereomer]

That you did not. [ There is a fat corgi trying to identify the color of your socks-- sorry about that. ] Are you particularly used to sleeping on a park bench?

[meaningful_connections]

[ Nice doggie. Yes, the socks are very silly, I know. ]

More so than, say, you might be, judging by your clothing. But I didn't bother with sleeping, so that was a plus.

What about you - why so curious?

This- [ Yusuf indicates the space the other man is taking up, meaning the situation in general. ] Happens once every couple months. As a scientist, I'm interested in the logistics of it all.

[ Liar liar pants on fire. ]

Have you used your device yet? [ Yusuf motions to the man's coat. ]
