Oh--!

[Linneus has some experience with technology - it wasn't without learning anything that he lived on Amoi for the better part of three years - but he's still a little taken by surprise when the video starts up, startling and straightening from where he had been fiddling with his device]

Ah- good day, everyone.

[heavens, but starting addresses such as these never feels any less awkward, even if "good day" has always served perfectly well. In contrast his familiar, Bisou, is nothing but at ease, a little ball of light bobbing contentedly by his shoulder]

I fear I am here again only to trouble you once more for help, as I am... searching for somewhere more permanent to live. Only I have never house-hunted on my own before and I'm not necessarily confident as to where to begin?

How does one start, exactly - beyond, say, a list of what they might like?

I would say that starting with what you might like is an excellent beginning.

[But beyond that? Hm. Admittedly, being here was the first time Jane had really needed to consider finding a place of her own and she had had an easy time of it given that she had been offered a place to stay with somebody.]

Then I suppose that... location would be important, and whether or not you want to live alone. I wouldn't have chosen it myself, it's a little lonely, but the woman I moved in with isn't here anymore.

[The only problem is the cooking, really. Jane is not the best cook.]

I think that you are! At least, you're taking similar steps to the ones I took and I didn't do too badly out of it in the end.

[Even if she would like to get a housemate again at some point, probably.]

I've travelled a good deal but I always had my father with me. I know how hard it is to get used to a new situation. [There's a touch of sympathy in her own smile, too.] If I can help in any way, I'd be happy to.
