Downstairs Kitchen, Night

Maybe it's not normal to cook in the middle of the night, but she's got a craving and Rose isn't sure if she’ll be stepping on any toes with red team on kitchen duty.

Whenever she’s uprooted, she wants comfort food, and even after three centuries that still means one thing: chips. Delicious pieces of potato deep-fried until their nutritional value is in the negatives, preferably from one of those little shops where everything is fried.

Sadly, she can’t just pop out to pick up an order--her usual MO--because she's been effectively shanghaied by this train. At least all of the necessary ingredients are in stock and she can make a respectable version herself. It takes time but eventually she produces a plate piled high with steaming hot chips.

She looks down, considering the portion. Earlier, it had seemed like a waste to go through all the trouble of cooking from scratch to make just enough for herself, but maybe she'd overcompensated? It seems unlikely that there'll be many hungry passersby to share this with at this time of night.

"That might be a problem."

Garden

Rose doesn’t like the garden carriage and not just because it’s basically an enormous window to the headache-inducing void.

She can see how others would find it peaceful and beautiful, but whenever she passes through, she can’t help the shiver that runs down her spine. Still, her unease won’t stop her from learning the layouts of each car and today was the day she’d chosen for this one.

She deliberately paces her way along the pathways, noting potential obstacles and changing textures underfoot. During one of her circuits, she pauses to stare at one of the statues. Her expression is complicated, more so than a simple stone figure should warrant.

Spa

Rose is reading, though not in the most expected of places. Wearing a purple swimsuit (not her color of choice, but if the powers-that-be want them color-coded for their convenience, she’ll play along for now) and with her blonde curls piled on top of her head, she’s lounging in the heated pool with a book from the Merry Little Voidtrain series.

It’s one of several, the rest stacked neatly outside of the potential splash zone. It looks like she raided the library for information on the void, though there are some more non-fiction in the mix as well.

It looks like she'll be here for a while.

Wildcard

It’s her first two weeks on board so she’s still learning where everything is and the general rhythms of train life. Find her cleaning up as part of her purple duties, training, and generally poking around.

Wild card - sorry I have two CRAU kids who know another Rose

Clef was in the library, as usual. The mage looked like he was all of ten and dressed out of his parents cosplay closet. Nothing he wore matched any of the team colurs exactly, being sort of a lilacy blue with a bit of a shimmer, and certainly nothing in those starter bags included the cloak that covered his whole body, or all the gems he wore. He was sitting atop a large rock that left him eye level with the average adult human male, a tall staff laying on the stone beside him. A large book floated before him, two blank ones floated to one side, and a notebook and hand carved wooden pen floated to the other side.

He glanced up to see who had entered as he generally did, then stopped and blinked. He offered a warm smile and the book he had been reading floated up above his head and out of the way. "Rose," he said, gently. "It has been a while. But given the nature of this train-entity, I must ask, do you recall who I am?"
