Summary: It's good to have the tower full. Zett busies himself on various floors, then makes visits to a few important people.
Warnings: None, will edit if anything comes up.

[Floor 14]
[Even if you don't know him, Zett doesn't mind coming up to you and asking:]

Hey, want to play a game with me?

[Unlike some other demons who have made suspicious offers, this one's actually completely innocent. It's good to have people around in the tower again.]

[Floor 81]
[Stargazing is one of Zett's hobbies. He seems to be invested in... making a star chart?

Yes, today, he's decided that they're going to name the tower world's stars if they don't know what other people have called them, and the first step to that is drawing every star down on paper. Don't mess up his drawing.]

[Floor 95]
[If you suddenly get a ball thrown at your back or face, Zett miiiiight be the culprit.]

[Dorms 3-18: locked to Enoch]
[Zett knocks politely on the door before speaking up.]

Uncle Enoch, are you in here?

[Enoch's only got one roommate, so if it's occupied, 50-50 chance... assuming Enoch's alive again.]

[Dorms 1-12: locked to Lucifel]
[This door, he knocks on and then enters without waiting.]

Lucifel, are you in here?

[Alive?]

[Dorms 1-02: locked to Romeo, Gamzee, and Veigar]
[At the end of the day, Zett returns to his room and flops down on his bed. It's good to see the tower full again of people rather than shadows.

No matter who's in the room with him, the conversation begins the same way:] So how've you been?

Comments

[sunflowerfairy]

[Not that Yotsuba really minded. She had only really raced with her Daddy back home and tried to race with Red here, so she wasn't complaining about adding another one under her belt.

She just tried her best to run faster, laughing as she did so. This was fun!]

[scentofmakai]

[Who would be the victor? And did it matter?]

[sunflowerfairy]

[Probably Zett, if he ran at full speed, and it did matter to Yotsuba..but only a little bit. Right now, she was just laughing and running.]

[scentofmakai]

[Well, he wouldn't run at full speed... so in the end, he let Yotsuba win.]

[sunflowerfairy]

[So, when they got to the dorm hallways, Yotsuba would just laugh again and throw a fist in the air.]

Yotsuba won! Where are the ter..terminals?

[scentofmakai]

You did great. And they're right over here. [Leading her over to one.]

[sunflowerfairy]

Ah, okay!

[And Yotsuba would happily follow, looking over the machine and all the buttons.]

It looks like what Daddy used to work! How can I use it?!

[scentofmakai]

Well, you use this part here to move the arrow on the screen, to click on things... And when you click this part here, it lets you record yourself saying things.

[sunflowerfairy]

[Yotsuba took down Zetts instructions, doing her best to learn and remember the information.]

Okay! But how do you use the keys?

[scentofmakai]

If you don't want to record yourself saying things, you can also use the keys to write sentences. See?

[He types 'Yotsuba is good at racing' and it shows up on screen.]

[sunflowerfairy]

[While was a sentence that only made Yotsuba's grin grow even more. At that, she though she understood enough to get by and reached for the computer.]

Okay! Yotsuba's gonna try and record something!

[scentofmakai]

Go for it.

[sunflowerfairy]

Roger!

[With a small salute with her right hand, Yotsuba reached for the mouse and did her best to leave a voice recording on the network, not realizing that everyone would be able to see it.]

Hello! I'm Yotsuba Koiwai! I beat Zett in a race and I'm trying out the ter..terminals! It's suuper fun! Who are you? Are you good people?!

[And with that recorded, she would try and send it off.]

[scentofmakai]

That button there sends it.

[sunflowerfairy]

Ah, roger!

[And with that, Yotsuba smacked the button and sent it off, all while looking at the screen.]

I wonder who'll reply?!

[scentofmakai]

Could be anyone.

[sunflowerfairy]

I hope a lot of good people reply! You have to avoid bad ones, or they'll kill you!

[scentofmakai]

That's right. Or they'll do worse.

[sunflowerfairy]

..What's worse than killing someone?

[scentofmakai]

This only applies here, but when you kill someone, they heal right up here, right? But if you hurt their spirit, sometimes that can never, ever heal.

[sunflowerfairy]

[..That..sounded pretty horrible to Yotsuba. How could someone hurt someone elses soul like that?]

That's horrible! How do you hurt someone's soul like that?! It's super mean!

[scentofmakai]

Only really terrible people do that.

[sunflowerfairy]

They're huge jerks! Your souls important, so it's terrible to hurt it! They're like demons!

[..Enoch had explained what demons were like in his world. Zett might want to give her the SMT version of them.]

[scentofmakai]

Like demons?

[He's getting to it.]

[sunflowerfairy]

Yeah, demons! Enoch said they ate peoples souls, so people who hurt other peoples souls are like demons!
