[She did have a fair few art supplies, as well as the larger painting- perhaps a luggage cart would be sensible! With the two of them they might struggle.]

Can we take one to use? If we bring it back when we finish.

[In the meantime, she grabbed the duvet off her bed, slowly easing out the painting from its hiding place so she could wrap it up safely. The duvet would do nicely for that, wouldn't it?]

[roundandaround]

Probably! That's what I did when I moved! They have stuff like that in apartment buildings. I can come over, what all do you need me to bring?

[ashenrose]

I don't know maybe boxes and blankets to keep everything safe

[Nope she had no idea about this, at all, and was going to undoubtedly spend more time pacing in circles in her room than actually getting any packing done.

...Would this be alright? Rinku was kind. She was her friend.

But she couldn't find out, Mary told herself, going back to protectively wrapping up the canvas in bedsheets. Whatever happened.

It was only after setting that thought in her head that she remembered her manners; ]

Thank you

[roundandaround]

Okay! Thanks, Mary-chan! I'll be right over!

[action]

[Rinku arrives at the starter apartments with a bunch of large boxes in assorted lengths and widths taken from the recycling, as well as a stack of blankets, all on a flat cart from the nearest home improvement centre. (She'll give it back later.) She waves up at the windows and calls Mary.]

Mary-chan! I'm here!

Cuties <3 They're doing their best!

[ashenrose]

[Hopefully the home improvement centre won't mind these two borrowing their cart for now!

When Mary had first arrived, she had been so frightened of anyone getting near her belongings, that she'd barricaded her apartment door- fetching duct tape and other supplies as a first priority. Yes, she had definitely let her guard down.

Perhaps it helped that people had accepted her here. That they were kind. And she wanted to believe Rinku would do the same.

She still jumped when she heard Rinku's voice, though! But it didn't take long to get her composure back, and she ran over to the window, standing up on her chair to peek out and answer- giving her room number as she did so.]

Rinku! Come in, come in, I've just got a few more things to pack-

[Her place is in chaos. Art supplies everywhere, clothes very roughly folded in a heap, and one rather large canvas carefully wrapped up by her blankets that she moved to lurk protectively near. That seemed about the only thing she had packed with any care.

Mimi, her droopy-earred Mimikyu, was sticking close to Mary, whilst three creepy-cute blue dolls- one big, two small- lurked nearby. Sure was odd, how it looked as if they were watching Rinku when she came in.]

[roundandaround]

[Rinku leaves the cart outside and comes up with all the boxes and blankets. She sets them down on the floor and waves happily at Mary and Mimi, then at her dolls. Mary says the dolls are alive, why shouldn't Rinku greet them?]

I can help pack this stuff! I'd let Mecchan and Hina-chan come help, but they're little, so I dunno if they can fold or lift anything. What all do you want where?

[She starts sorting the clothes into one of the boxes.]
