Is that how--yeah, okay.

[It's close to sunset and Nico is chilling in a graveyard in De Chima. Why? Because she's living her best life, that's why. And it's not that far off her usual route home.]

This thing isn't that different from the WizPhones, but muscle memory-- [She rolls her eyes.]

Whatever. Hi? I'm Nico, I'm new in town, and I've got this thing. [She holds up an intricate silver device with a gold ring at the top, hissing slightly as she activates it. Light crackles in the ring, and a four foot pole telescopes from the end of the grip. The extra length seems to be solid piece with no seams, from the looks of it. Weird.]

I had it back home, too, but I didn't know its name. Apparently, it's called the Staff of One. [If the dossier she read when she arrived is to be believed. She turns the Staff over in her hand, idly.]

Anybody handy with magic? I could use a hand figuring out what it can do.

[She's used it for some things, and seen it used for some others, but she hasn't exactly had extensive practice with the thing. Her mom would insist the Staff isn't magic, but whatever. She's kind of past caring what her mom says.]

If you don't have that--please tell me somebody in this world has taste and goth is still a thing. My wardrobe is looking pretty pathetic right now. [She twists her mouth to one side for a moment, thinking, before going on. May as well try it.] One more thing. Karolina, Gert, Alex, Molly, Chase--if you guys are here and seeing this, speak up.

[Yeah that'll work. Probably not.]

It's a four foot stick. You could try blunt force.

[Did somebody say magic?]

What did your file say about it?

[It's been a while since D33's asked a stupid question. Why not?]

I don't suppose you would mind elaborating on what exactly this "goth" is that you speak of?

[Never mind the freaky staff thing. He sees plenty of that kind of shit on the daily around here.]

[ Have some beautiful green nerd nodding enthusiastically as he follows along with everything Nico's saying. ]

Love the atmosphere, love the look, especially love the magic stick.

You sure as shit won't find anything in the mall around here, as native fashion's languishing in midcentury nostalgia despite being well into the twenty-fucking-first century.

[What can be seen of Ronan's current outfit, though, is rather promising in the goth department. He leans a little more punk than classic, given his floppy mohawk.]

But I may be able to help.

[He wouldn't normally. He just sympathizes with her plight in this instance.]

The "Staff of One?" [ It's physically painful for him to not make a dick joke right now. ] One what?

The file they've giving you usually describes what you can do.

Usually, there are times it's useless.

[Wanda has the heavy/dark eye makeup thing going on, and a deep purple and black ombre look to her lipstick.]

I might be able to help in the magic department.

[A beat, then about the goth thing-- ]

I'd also like to think I have taste.

[this teen is not goth, but he looks exactly like Kurt Cobain. peak grunge aesthetic]

Hey, welcome to whatever town you got dumped in. Cool legendary object, probably? I'm pretty magic and I have a friend or two who might know what's up with it.

Depends on the kind of questions you want to ask about it, but magic is a pretty normal thing where I'm from.

[ ancient artifacts, godly powers, etc etc etc. ]

And I know everyone's already said it - but yeah, welcome.

[ Wow, well here's a Baphomet fan. This chick however, is on a throne of animal bones and flowers because she's living her worst life. ]

No one has taste, goth isn't a thing, and also 98% of the music blows. Welcome to hell.

I dunno what goth is, but I know lots of stores with clothes! There's gotta be stuff in there, right?

[She's very obviously the direct opposite of goth fashion though, with all her excessively bright colors and hearts.]

In my experience, if a staff's got some sort of fancy name like that, it's either really powerful, really dangerous, or both. Usually both! But I don't really know my magic super well, so I can't tell you more than that.

I could probably point you in the direction of a couple of stores, though.

[ It doesn't look like Jaime's the sort of fellow who's equipped to give fashion advice to anyone. HE BASIC. ]

[ oh shit it's tom cruise ]

As far as your fashion goes, I'm afraid you're going to have to — what do they call it? — DIY.

Try Utopia in Nonah. It's next to the mall.

Can't say I know anything about magic, sorry.

Does disturbing the dead help the staff?

[ Totally sarcastic, local necromancer has so many questions. At least he's not alone with the black clothing. He's dressed in black, black bomber jacket that's mostly zipped up. ]

I'm not sure about magic but there should be something in the stores here if goth is a type of fashion style? [she might not know what it is but it's easy to guess since she is talking about her wardrode]

The one thing I can probably help with is that if you are looking for your friends, you can try searching their names through the phone directory since that should tell you if they're here or not. [the other girl might have already gotten responses from her friends but she figures she could at least offer her help with a more practical way of finding them since that is what she did upon arriving]
