Floyd marches up to Mareena with a big smile on his face and hands her his Rank-Up ticket

"Now where did you get something like this?" She takes the ticket, stretching it between her hands and examining it. She brings her hands together to crush it, then opens her hands to show the remnants mysteriously vanished. "I take it you wish to spend some time with me, then. Shall we be off to the park for a bit, then?"

Floyd's eyes sparkle at the magic trick and he nods happily "Yep I thought for a long time about who to use it with and then I remembered that night at the beach and well The Park Sounds Great!"

You head to the mall in search of Mareena. You make your way up to her shop and find a note on her door. "Closed until evening." Well, that's unfortunate. You take a few steps to Mareena's usual perch and look down at the people coming and going from the mall. You spot Mattea in that little cafe, then realize she's working as a waitress. Tom, the one you've seen with Alice a few times, is just coming out of a clothing store with a small bag. And you think you recognize one of the girls in waiting in line at a pharmacy from the meeting the other night. Also, Tia's in the pet store. Carrying a bag of what you think is rabbit food.

Spying an opportunity, Nora will make a beeline for Tom. "Hello!"

"Huh? Oh, hey. What's up, Nora? Hanging out at the mall?"

"Well, I started working as Mareena's apprentice and stopped by to see if she was busy, but seems like she's not opening her shop until later today. Would you like to grab a bite to eat, hm? My treat. There's something I want to pick your brain about."

"Yeah? Normally I'd say we hit up that place and bother Mattea a bit, but sounds like we should head somewhere a bit quieter. There's a nice sandwich joint that doesn't get much traffic. I'll show you the way."
Tom leads you deeper into the mall, where the crowds fear to tread. There's noticeably fewer people than the groups gathered around the big, outer stores. "So... Apprentice to Mareena, huh? That was fast."

Nora gives a small shrug. "Mareena knows talent when she sees it, and I am already quite good at fortune telling. Though I do need to work on my people skills more."

"Hm. Can't say I know enough about the whole 'fortune telling' thing to really weigh in on that," Tom says. "But I do know sandwiches. And this place has a good sandwich." You arrive at a small deli that's abandoned other than one older man sitting in a seat near the entrance. When he sees you come in, he gets up and shuffles behind the counter, washing his hands while Tom takes a menu from a stack and hands it to you. "I recommend any of the deli meat sandwiches. So, what do you want to talk about?"

Nora looks over the menu for a moment, then orders a roast beef sandwich. "Ah, yes. What indeed. Am I right in guessing that you've known Alice for a long time?"

Tom
Tom pauses for a second. "Yeah, we met in first... no, was it second grade? So it's been a while. We'd play together from time to time, but I wouldn't really say we were friend-friends until middle school. Even as a little kid she was kind of... intimidating?" He orders a BLT.

Nora smiles. "Childhood friends, hm... That sounds nice. I'm afraid I don't have one myself. So I imagine you know her pretty well, yes? You see... I've found myself rather fond of her, much faster than I had anticipated. And she's not doing well, so I want to help her... But I'm not foolish enough to think I can help her all on my own. So I wanted someone else to talk to, and bounce ideas off of, and to help her too... And my intuition told me you would be my best bet."

Tom sighs. For what you think might be the first time, he takes his sunglasses off, sets them aside, and taps his temple. "That's the million dollar question right there... There's so much off with Alice right now that I don't even know where to begin. She's always been the type that acts tough, and now everyone's seen her limping around and she can't not freak out every time she gets close to an elevator. She prides herself on being self-sufficient and she's been stuck relying on people just to walk and eat. She's always been a leader, busted her ass with the president thing and no one seems to care, chose Mattea instead for whatever. She's bad at showing it but she likes to help people, and she's stuck thinking that all of this happened because she was trying to help - Tia and Laura both. Every time there's been an incident in the Otherworld she's been involved... so getting completely dismissed the other day hurt her a lot even if she doesn't want to show it. Oh, yeah, and her team placed second in the trivia competition. Against Mattea's. So, like, every bit of her self-image has been friggin' obliterated. I've been doing what I can, but, like... fuck, y'know? What do you even do when you wake up and everyone tells you you can't be who you decided you want to be?" Tom rubs his temples. "I don't really think there's much we can do."
