always there, always ready (to scream) | Dreamer Union: lounge, as needed [wildcard]

[Early in the month, Lisa doesn't hang out at the Union much; her services aren't particularly helpful here unless someone wanted low, quiet background music, and the staff probably has the sound in the building tuned for that just fine, so other than occasional drops of emotional support sweets, being in the building without Ai here will just bring her mood down. She does stop by every few days to check in and verify conditions, maybe chat with a couple people to make sure everyone's doing okay. But she really is better served not being here, unless someone needs her for something.

On the 10th, Lisa comes in still dressed in the clothes she'd been wearing to the job fair to inquire about an Excursion to search for Ai's Disturbance, given the Dreamer Union already knows one exists, and given they've confirmed it is hers. But given the last one, she's also intimately aware she is probably not the key to finding it. Harmonic Blend was not where Ai's time went. If her kids really do exist, it's them, and she'd be serving as backup. So she's not going to list the request if it isn't already made. That leaves her to again make the rounds and check on people, but this time morale isn't going to keep her away. She'll be here until someone drags her away, but she's less desperate than she was at this phase of the last Disturbance. She has backup. She has someone to brainstorm ideas with. She... has a lifeline.

Once the Disturbance opens, Lisa isn't here a lot, but she does still stop by, eyes burning with purpose. Rhodonite and Sage are a combat force in and of themselves, but they aren't as strong as a proper Unit, or even a pick-up group with more hands to watch each other's backs. So she's looking for anyone that might need extra Sandglasses for their own search party. Sometimes she's by herself, sometimes she isn't, but she needs to be here to check on things. To check on people. She's... learned her lesson from Junna's Disturbance, not to live in the Dream and put her life on hold to try and save the person trapped inside, but her anxiety still drives her to come and check for news. She's careful to file her reports, too; if someone needs information, she needs to make sure it exists to be had, and Lisa will occasionally be found on her tablet here, typing out a report to hand in, because she could handwrite it but better to digitize it for easier searching. If you're looking for her in a relatively secure location that isn't her apartment, this is it, and if you do need her for something, she's a text away.]
