[Phone call: open to all]

Okay, so, all that zombie stuff is over, right? I see what you guys mean, now. That was terrible! Is everyone alright? Do you need anything? I know I'm new here, but I'd like to help if I can. Anything, you name it!

Oh, I also got a call yesterday from the elementary school, asking if I was actually going to come into work today? I didn't know I had a job. Does this normally happen?

--

[Later on, Aurora will be found in the following places:

A) At the elementary school! Welcome the new reading teacher, kids. A perky teen dressed perfectly in her 1950s clothes, looking excited to be there while writing her name on the board: Aurora Belle Jenkins.]

Hi! I'm Ms. Jenkins, but the drones will tell you I'm Mrs. Gell-- um, Mrs. Jellv-- Well, it doesn't matter. Aurora is just fine!

Ah... To be perfectly honest with you all, I don't know the first thing about teaching. Things are pretty different where I come from. And a reading teacher? I'm not sure what to do, really... [She picks up her teacher's guide and flips through it, looking unsure of what to do.]

Well, how about this? Since it's my first day here, we'll take it easy! Tell me about yourself. Let's get to know each other!

[And every single student shall be called on. NONE SHALL ESCAPE.]

[B) After school, Aurora will be out and about the town, glad to not be locked in the house any longer. She'll be at the department store, looking at clothes and trying them on, not bothered by the 50s style at all. She actually seems to like it.

Aurora will also be stopping in at the record store, perusing the selection. She'll occasionally pick up a rock 'n' roll album and look it over, thinking. There's something about it that's strangely familiar, but she can't quite put her finger on it. She doesn't know it, but Aurora was born in 1960, so a lot of things in Mayfield have a comfortable and familiar quality about it. But thanks to her status as a ghost, she can't really remember.]

Yeah, I was stuck in the house alone for a few days, but I'm okay! What about you?

Yeah? I think you're right... Thanks a lot!

[She holds it up to herself, looking in a mirror. Pink does go well with her dark features.]

I'll have to try it on. See, I've got a job here now, so buying some new outfits feels right for some reason. Even if all my clothes here are all technically new, I guess...

I see! And they're a common household item?

Trust me, it'll look even better on you than it ever could on that hanger.

The name's Greed.

[Do you know who sometimes has to buy his kids clothes?

This guy. Wearing his "costume" at the moment and frowning at clothes for girls.

Spotting Aurora.]

Hey, kid, you good at matching colors?

[Don't mind him... he's just curious as to what you're doing over there by the records.]

Finding anything interesting?

[ Yes, she looks much too old to be an elementary school student. Yes, she looks much too young to be an elementary school teacher. She may or may not be here because Gilgamesh brought up killing his teacher once before. So she does checks every so often. ]

Wha-? You can't be serious. You want me to introduce myself?

We have one in our house here. There's a few of these in the house already, but I want some more. Plus, I remember this guy! [She holds up an Elvis record.] He's really popular!

Oh, that's pretty far off, then! It's pretty different from this place.

[She beams!] Oh, I hope I can afford it then... But I can try it on at least.

Greed? [Odd name, but hey, this is Mayfield. Her 'husband' is called Norway.] Nice to meet you, I'm Aurora.

[What's the problem, Rin? Surely you want to make friends with everyone!

Aurora cocks her head, looking confused. Was this an odd thing for her to request?]

Sure? I mean, we're going to spend a lot of time in here together, so we might as well get to know one another better.

Oh... Actually, I am! [She is very excited. It's not often you remember the things you're good at as a ghost.] What do you need?

Oh, um... Well they all sound interesting, really! I'm not familiar with most of them, though a few of the names do seem to ring a bell with me...

[She flips through the rock records, thinking.]

It's a lot different. I don't really like this place.

Just a little overextended. I'm doing a little baking for therapy.

[Kotetsu is casually looking through some of the records when he spots Aurora. He wanders over to her and waves.]

Hey! Know any of this music?

[ A job? She's older than he thought she was.

Not that it bothers him any. ]

What kind of job?

Oh yeah? Huh, guess I'm not familiar with well... any of them.

[Hajime grins]

I'm Hajime and I'm so happy you're a regular person!

[Her enthusiasm is cute.]

You been here long?

Maybe there's already one in the house, then. I'm interested in learning how to use these!

Oh, hi Kotetsu! Um, I think I do. Some of it's really familiar. That's really exciting for me. Like these two guys! [She holds up two records from her pile - Bobby Darin and Ray Charles.] I don't recognize the names of the songs though, but maybe I'll remember them once I actually hear them.

A lot of people don't. I can see why, with everything that just happened. But do you see any good points in it at all?

Mmmmm, all the new friends?

School teacher. I'm really not sure what I should be wearing... My closet already had dresses like these in it, and these are all over the stores, so I guess it works. Which is nice, because they're really cute.
