[ OPEN LOG ]
Who: Satoko Houjou and you!
When: Early November.
Where: Around the ADI headquarters
Summary: Satoko adjusts to the new situation she's found herself in, and starts to do her research.
Warnings: None, other than a general "children in dangerous situations" blanket-warning! Will update as needed.
CANTEEN.
[ It’s only been a few hours since her orientation, and Satoko still feels like she’s in shock. It wouldn’t surprise her at all if she woke up any time now to find out that this was all just a strange dream – though it feels like it’s gone on far too long for that...
But the human mind can only handle a state of shock for so long. And so slowly, Satoko’s starting to adjust to her new reality. She had cried, though she’s embarrassed to admit it, upon realizing that she might not ever see Rika and her friends again, but… after she’d let it all out, she’d soon started thinking that crying wasn’t going to solve anything.
Instead, she’s realized… that if she stayed at the ADI, and helped them investigate the supernatural, she might one day find a way home. And with that goal in mind, Satoko vowed to be strong once more, wiping away her tears.
...Of course, that doesn’t stop the loneliness. She would give anything to see any of her friends right now, especially Rika… She won’t even be living with her anymore, will she? Everything about it feels wrong – being separated from her at all makes her stomach churn and pierces her with a pain she never thought she’d have to face. Right now, she’s located in the ADI’s canteen, sipping a glass of juice and ignoring the strange looks she’s getting from the people around her. She knows that she must look out of place because of her young age, but honestly, do people really think her to be that incapable? In Hinamizawa, no-one would’ve looked twice to see her wondering around on her own…
Once somebody sits beside her, she’ll turn to them, a little startled as she’s jolted out of her thoughts. ]
Oh! Hello… [ she starts uncertainly in English, though to be honest, the fact that she can now speak the language is still making her mind reel. ] Did you need something?
I WANT YOU BY MY SIDE.
[ The ADI headquarters… it’s a rather large building, isn’t it? But Satoko doesn’t seem intimidated at all – and she walks down the halls of B3 confidently, as if she knows exactly what she’s looking for. The reality, though, is a little different. She’s already spent around an hour researching the supernatural in the library – it helps that she was genuinely interested in the topic – and now she’s hoping to get a look at the kind of technology that the ADI has available. After all, it’s important to be prepared if she’s going to be investigating real-life supernatural phenomena, right? And Satoko’s sure that she’s bound to find something that come in handy!
But… suddenly, out of nowhere, her eyes widen. She freezes in place like a statue – even her breathing has stopped, as she realizes something incredibly important. How did she not think of it until now!?
Then, with urgency in her step, she’ll run over to the nearest person and look up at them with a desperate expression on her face. ]
Umm! Excuse me, but… do you know if there’s some kind of record of all the arrivals who’ve shown up in this building? …It’s very important!
NEW PLACES, NEW HOMES.
[ Satoko’s standing in front of the ADI housing complex, looking up at the building with something of an awe-filled expression. It’s rather something, compared to her old house back at home. In Hinamizawa, she lived with Rika alone, but now she’ll have many housemates, along with rules that she has to follow… well, it’s not like the rules are too bothersome, but it’s going to take an awful lot of adjusting to. …Though that’s been the case for pretty much everything lately, hasn’t it?
However, just when she’s about to pick one of the buildings and go inside, she spots someone – and immediately runs over to them, unable to hide her concern. ]
Are you quite alright? That’s quite the expression you’re making…

Oh! Yes, I would appreciate that. Lead the way!
[ She eagerly accepts the change of topic, a little curious about the kind of place they'll be going to. It's been a long time since she's lived anywhere without Rika... ]
