[Streaming live from the office at Merlotte's, it's Sookie on her dinner break! And she only looks half-exhausted, bless.]

Hey y'all, so I'm looking for some roommates. I've got a good sized house, and I'm staring to realize it's just a little too much for one person.

[And it has nothing to do with the fact that she got straight up dream kildt and can't sleep in an empty house anymore. Nah.]

Big things first: I'm just on the edge of De Chima, kind of far out there. The house is pretty old, so there's gonna be a lot of creaking and weird leaks. I've got two empty rooms, one's kinda small on the first floor off the living room. The second one's on the second floor and it's a little bigger. And [She winces, because this next part is bad.] there's only one full bathroom, just to be honest.

I'm just looking for other women, and I'm totally pet friendly. [Wait, no, hold on.] Unless they're scaly. Annnnnnd.....I think that's all I have for now? If you're interested, just let me know.

[And she's gonna leave it at that, because she's been on a nine hour shift and a woman needs a damn moment to herself.]

Only one full bath and no scaly friends? What kind of living arrangement is that.

[wordaday]

Well, it's mine, for one.

[And she's perfectly happy for it, Newton.]

[driftsintobuffetline]

[NEWT. Don't let him hear you calling him Newton.]

Oh, well, that's cool, but you're going to have trouble finding roomies, I think. I mean...only one bathroom and no reptiles? Pretty lame. And I'm not being sexist here with the one bathroom thing. Hermann and I could barely survive sharing the one sometimes, and then we had Sophie and--three people. One bath. That's not easy. I'd consider moving if you're not too committed to the place. Bathrooms are legit deal breakers.

[wordaday]

[It's a small blessing, she thinks, that she hasn't had to interact with Newt in real life. His brain probably goes so fast it would give her a headache.]

Y'know, I didn't move in with a mind to end up sharing the place, and I'm not gonna move just because someone might not wanna share a shower.

[driftsintobuffetline]

Uh.

Share a shower or share a shower?

[wordaday]

You know what I mean, don't be nasty.

[driftsintobuffetline]

There's nothing nasty about it. But, look, sharing is great, but sometimes more than one shower is kind of a necessity.

[wordaday]

[Oh Lord, how the hell did he ever convince someone to marry him?

Yeah she reads the tabloids, shut up.]

Alright. But I don't have the money to put a second one in. Do you?

[driftsintobuffetline]

[Hey, HERMANN asked him! But Newt doesn't know how either]

Uh no? Not after my wedding, honeymoon and new house. Kind of puts a legit dent in a guy's wallet.

Where do you work?

[wordaday]

I work at a bar [You obnoxious jerk], so if I don't have the money to put in a new one, and you're not going to front the cost though you're complaining about it, how about we drop it?

[Not that she's saying Sam doesn't pay enough! But waitress money is still waitress money.]

[driftsintobuffetline]

Alright, fine, we'll drop it. See if I ever visit the bar and leave a big tip!
Though, money things aside, working in a bar does sound kind of ...interesting. I mean, aside from drunk people. Any good stories?

[notsheepish]

I'm not really looking right now myself, but if I find out anybody else is, I can let them know to reach out to you?

Re: video

[wordaday]

I really would appreciate it. I can't really get someone who's, y'know, local, so it's either this or move closer into the city.

[notsheepish]

Which you're looking to avoid if possible, I'm guessing?

[wordaday]

Yeah. I've never lived in a city before, which is why I picked this place in the first place. It kinda reminds me of home.

[notsheepish]

If it makes you feel better, I literally just moved out of the city to open a business just like my grandmother's back home. Even gave it the same name, so... [She shrugs.] You're not completely alone.

[anon just for her good friend Sookie]

ok hon
why tf are you living in the sticks and trying to lure roommates out there


even your cute face cannot make up for the serious creep vibes

[wordaday]

[Hi fairy anonmother, nice to see you again. She sure would like to actually know who you are one day.]

1- thank you, I actually did my makeup today

2- I've never lived anywhere near a city before so it reminded me of home out here. It's not a bad drive at all! just 30 min into town

[nastygram]

[ ~ someday ~ ]

omg you hick
driving is for s u c k e r s


how far away is the supermarket

[wordaday]

[wordaday]

[nastygram]

[faderbroderson]

You wouldn't rather move somewhere smaller and more central?

[No judgement here, just curious Godric being curious.]

[wordaday]

[Oh, ah. Hi there, Godric.]

Not really. I've lived out a little ways all my life, I wouldn't know what to do living in a city.

voice;

[shifting]

Let me know if you need anyone vetted.

[also heads up that's probably going to happen anyway. Don't be surprised to find a dog on the lawn sniffing around whoever moves in, Sookie.]

[zee_zatara]

Hi, I'm Zee. How do you feel about rabbits?

[wordaday]

As long as you're not going to be eating them, I'd be happy to have one around.

[Look, she's got some weird friends. It's a Legitimate Concern™.]

[zee_zatara]

Nope, I'm a magician. They're stage-rabbits. And pets. And, like me, vegetarian.

I also cook. If you don't mind falafel in place of beef every so often, that could be a plus.
