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.

he'll ask soon enough, but he'll let the man concentrate.
there are some squatters around, like shalem, but those are few and between... and they're about to scurry away because of the presence of yet another stranger. it's annoying and a bit distressing to them, thanks to a number of reasons.
shalem himself has mostly curiosity, but also a hint of resignation-- he knows that there's a big chance the building is not salvageable, and he'll just have to move.]

Shalem won't have to ask, because Mister Rambleman himself is about to report his findings. ]
Yup. There are a handful of them down there. Couldn't really discern the number, but I'd say no more than a dozen. They're not very happy to have us around, and I wonder if they can also detect me.
—For the record, I'm a psychic. I can read the emotions of others. It may be troublesome, but I think we should try to reach out to the other squatters and see if they're willing to talk to us. Worst case scenario is that they get territorial—and if that happens, then I wouldn't be opposed to helping you find a new place to stay.
no subject
If they do get territorial, I have a back-up plan and a new location in mind. But... [his tail flicks behind him, making the blanket flutter.]
I appreciate the help in any case.
[then he looks around himself, attempting to see if there's anyone around so they can get started. but he's disappointed when he actually can't see anyone, nor scent them. and then shrugs.]
Shall we get started?
i'm so sorry i lost this one in my inbox hjgkhsgh
[ Kaito takes a few steps towards the decrepit flat, then snaps his fingers. A head-sized sphere of silver energy forms above him, casting a beam of light down onto the ground. He cocks his gaze back to Shalem. ]
I'm gonna hazard a guess that they're either using a hidden passageway or a trap door to get underground. My abilities unfortunately don't really help me find secret entrances, so we'll have to do this the hard way.
npnp!
I do not expect you to fix everything for me, especially not within the span of a night or two. [indeed, shalem would be ashamed if he simply sat back and let someone just do things and he reaped the rewards after.]
I am not afraid of a walk, Kaito. Don't worry.
