With the colder weather comes some discomfort. ... For myself, in particular. [a soft clearing of his throat.]

I am looking for some help in heating up a room-- heating a flat preferably, but even one room would be enough. A small device might not be enough for me, because... well. [for a few seconds, the video feed is on, showing a pale hand around something tube-shaped and covered in lustrous black scales, very long, the ends disappearing off-camera.

it's a snake tail. his tail, specifically.]

I am quite sensitive to the cold and will become sluggish, perhaps not as much as actual serpent-beasts, but still. I can't very well brumate until the weather warms up again, now can I?

I shall repay anyone who can help.

[prozaic]

I don't understand why you are insistent on your way.
Indeed, I need help, but if that help is more of a detriment to my health than the cold, I must decline it.

[boarwitness]

Have you found any better solutions?

[prozaic]

Yes. A number of people have already come forward.

[boarwitness]

[oh

huh.]

And?

What did they suggest?

[prozaic]

Fixing the central heating, or finding another place to live.

[boarwitness]

I don't think there's anywhere else that's free, but warm.

[is he asking to be contradicted, or starting a fight? it's hard to tell.]

[prozaic]

I have my ways.

[boarwitness]

In that case, you should share it with everyone else.

[prozaic]

Very well.
Find an unclaimed house or flat well-suited for you. In essence, squatting, but is it truly squatting when no one owns it or is renting it out?

[boarwitness]

That's pretty bold, considering we have no way to check if someone does own it.

Maybe it's time for me to move.

[prozaic]

I am not adverse to moving again if the house has an owner. But I prefer to be meticulous in my research, and if it turns out the abandoned house or flat needs work, I have no issue with working on it.
