AC's Apartment
As a life-time citizen of the City and a government employee, A.C. gets a nice apartment. cool
Her Assigned Housing consists of an eighth floor suite with a bath and a half. It includes a spacious master bedroom (with the full bath), two smaller bedrooms, one made up for a child and one for houseguests, a kitchen, a dayroom with one wall a massive window openning to balcony, and an entrance hall (with the half bath). Over the next few years she is pre-authorized and expected to get married and begin raising children. As she progresses in the government hierarchy she is fully expected to entertain. It is fully expected that some people will be unable to make it to their own residences after said entertaining, and that she and her family will put them up for the night in the guest room.
((As yet, A.C. is only 19 and without a boyfriend, as the Law says that no government employee in her position is allowed to date seriously before obtaining a permanent residence.))
She has only just moved in, so there are several boxes in the master bedroom. The bed is made up in blues and whites, the full bath has a towel, washcloth, and soaps on the counter, and the kitchen fridge has some milk and apricot jelly in it. Next the the fridge is cereal, bread, peanut butter, and ramen, as well as assorted paper and plastic dishes. There is also a trash can in the kitchen, and a box full of very carefully packed cooking equipment.
((A.C. owns no real dishes or silverware, although her parents have promised her a set of fine silver once she gets married.))
There is a very solid wooden baseball bat leaning just behind a corner near the front hall, on the side A.C. would have to come from to answer the door. It is dented some near the sweet spot, and has a shallow gouge in one place from a blade.

25 Marks. Like almost every citizen of the City, A.C. starts out with a house, her previous belongings, and exactly 25 Marks. It makes no difference that she already has a job and has lived here her whole life.

Equipped:
black sneakers, clean
dark blue jeans, slightly worn but still very clean
white dress shirt, buttoned all the way up, long sleeved, spotless clean
black tie, tied not clip-on, not shiny, clean and dustfree
one black digital watch, left wrist, clean
narrow wire glasses, low on the nose, clean
Over-all clean, professional-looking without being mistaken for anything but a government gopher/secretary, which is exactly what she is. With her glasses on (as they always are), the top half of her eyes appear to look above the lenses and the bottom half below.
edit: Now carrying the baseball bat from the hallway.

There is the fumbling sound of a key in a lock by the front door. Then A.C. remembers that the door has no keyhole (and she's not holding a key), and she just opens the darn thing. Sensors in the house register copious amounts of alchohol on her breath and dim the lights.
She stumbles in, reaches out for the bat (misses, reaches out again), and snatches it up like a fresh bottle. Drinking it doesn't seem to work, however, so instead she swings it around to rest on her shoulder and surveys the empty house at a crouch.
"Hm. No-fwaldy."
She stumbles out again.
