10 | [ visual ] / [ location: a central coffee shop ]

The tablet turns on spontaneously to reveal a slender young woman with riotous brown curls seated at a table in a certain coffee shop not far from Taxon hotel. Coincidentally, it's the very same coffee shop she'd disappeared from well over a month ago in the middle of a tablet broadcast; the very same table too, in fact.

Her spine straightens and a look of mild confusion crosses her face as she stares at the tabletop - didn't she have a cup of coffee in front of her?

"Okay, that's weird," Katherine mutters, frowning. However, she has witnessed stranger things in her long un-life, so a disappearing coffee cup is no cause for concern. Glancing outside, she's further confused to see snow. She's rather certain that wasn't there when she'd walked into the establishment. Granted, she can be blissfully ignorant of things and people not relating to herself and her plans sometimes, but not this much.

"Ugh. The magic hamsterland strikes back," she drawls, distinctly displeased. She hates snow. Realizing her tablet is recording (oh, but of course it is!) this, she grabs the device and gives the screen an unimpressed look.

"Alright, someone explain. When the hell did that holly jolly Winter Wonderland monstrosity outside pop up?"


( ooc | i can't for the life of me remember if the pause glitch was revamped and how it's supposed to work now, but i'm having katherine pick up from the same place she left off without any recollection of having gone "poof" from taxon for nearly two months. feel free to have your characters inform her of what happened if you want. )
