House of Cards RP

Things have been eventful in the 24 hours since the Queen of Clubs disappeared. Säde isn't as immediately concerned with her disappearance so much as the circumstances of it. There's been a flurry of doors of the new houses being boarded up, the people who've tried to live in them being forced out. They've been given places to stay if they won't live in the castle. Now that she's received the reports that all that's been done...

Well, she's firstly going to spend an hour or so throwing knives at targets, out in the cold. Then she's sending messages to all the Face Cards in all Suits, requesting they meet. Whether they come to Diamond Castle or wish her to come to their own makes no difference to her.

[ooc: catch her on the training grounds or any of the castles.]

They're not moving until closer to the wedding, and most of this, Zoe thinks, will be given away or put into storage. Her shoes are already being separated into keep and discard piles, some of her clothes, too. Books are going into boxes, and she's tagging the furniture to either be moved from her quarters to the new, shared suite...or into storage. The small set of rooms she'd gotten last year as a new Four of Spades will be cleaned out and reallocated to another Spade.

Which is fine, really. The space is well-decorated (it's not like she could really redecorate Victor's rooms, after all), but she's never really lived there, so it's always had the feel of a showroom. She likes her couch better than Victor's, but that's not a battle even worth starting, so his horrible plaid couch will travel up one floor. She's taking her bed, though, no discussion. It'll be moved up there today, since it's not like she's been sleeping in it.

Not yet, though. Right now, Zoe's sitting on the floor surrounded by boxes with the door wide open. Some of them are taped up, some of them are still open, and she's working through the things to pack and things to give away.

She's going to need to go into storage and get another bookcase, it seems. And possibly a filing cabinet.

The thing about possible emergencies, is people suddenly want to start stocking up. And it's not that the regular stores didn't carry all of the normal necessities (candles, bread, water, etc), but some people were getting a little more...prepared.

So in came the orders for things the stores didn't stock. MREs, solar panels (something about how all the power had gone out last year), space blankets, propane heaters, and one rather odd request for a custom Tyvek map of the Deck. That one would be interesting to do without actually letting on it was a map of a real place. And he didn't point out that it seemed like the Deck's topography was changing on a daily basis so a map might be relatively useless here.

Anyway, he can be found in his office, making lists, and preparing for a business trip off-Deck to see what he can bring back for people suddenly terrified their lives might be torn apart. It wasn't that he wasn't also concerned, he just figured that this was the best use of his time for such a situation.
