Are you having a rough time finding the motivation to get up and fight Chaos every night? Is your home situation not, shall we say, ideal? Do you need a helping hand finding the desire to stay on the side of goodness and light? Is the daily grind of not knowing who your friends are or who you can trust driving you up the wall? Florence Court may be the living situation for you!

It's simply a living situation where the characters within it can trust all their neighbors are of Order alignment, whether that alignment is something the character fiercely ascribes to or is something the character is uncertain about. Originally conceived as a safehouse for the purified, it occurred to Silv and I that that was a little bit limiting as far as residency requirements. So, now it's just an Order-specific apartment building with lower/reduced rent (even going so far as free in some cases) depending on your situation. Florence Court has group game events on a weekly to monthly basis to foster camaraderie among the ranks of Order, with a formal lobby on the ground floor and a basement that has been converted into a community space.

There is also free laundry.

If your character is Order-aligned, the answer is yes! However, ICly speaking, preferential placement would be given to people who are considered at risk for corruption: people who are having a hard time adjusting to senshi life, people who feel alone, people who have recently come over from Chaos. While Florence Court will not house runaways on an official basis because laws, if your family life or dorming situation is making it really hard for you to get out there and kick Chaos in the schnoz, provision will be made for you to ""stay over at a friend's house"" or ""intern"" with them. Please note that if your legal guardian comes looking for you, you will get forked over. Because laws. No one wants to go to jail.

They also maintain some nice, safe spaces for Guardian Cats to crash, if the cats don't have a safe place of their own.

User Image
If your character is Order-aligned, but for one reason or another doesn't want to or doesn't qualify or doesn't need to live at Florence Court, you can still get involved. The basement space is open to anyone on the side of Order to use for civilian-form meetings and game nights and sleepovers; there's always some sort of work to be done inside the apartment building proper, and no one is going to say no to people who are willing to chivvy around the newly-purified for new identification or driving tests or whatnot. Florence Court can and will affiliate with movements within Order, such as the Black Watch's CandleTower or any of the myriad teams or support groups, by giving them safe storage and meeting places.

If your character is Chaos-aligned, sorry, but no! Chaos-aligned and civilians may visit their friends, but that's just about it.

Because Florence Court is a safe space for all senshi and knights, there are a few rules to follow to make sure everyone stays safe and happy. While you will not be kicked out for a first or second offense, you will be subjected to Finn Derouen's Good Cop routine, and also Nick Wellington's Tell Me About It Cop routine.

If you are being followed by Chaos, do not bring them back to the house. While this is undeniably a scary situation and you're right to feel scared, this would be better handled by calling Babylon at 757-521-5236, or hitting the distress button on your senshi phone, or doing an all-call on your knight signet. Only in extenuating circumstances should you lead Chaos towards Florence Court.
Do not transform in the house. While it is tempting to henshin up in a known safe space, it puts people at risk; the forces of Chaos might be stupid, but they don't hold the Idiot Ball 100% of the time, and acting like they do puts the safety of everyone at Florence Court in danger. Ask Nick, Tallulah, or Finn about recommended safe henshining spots.
Do not tell Chaos where you live. If they express interest in purifying, but don't know where they'd live or that they'd be taken care of, you can discuss Florence Court in general terms. Do not give them the address, or show them the place.
Do not microwave tin foil. That's just irresponsible.
Pets are allowed. You're responsible for cleaning up after your pets in all situations, though.
Clean up after yourself in communal areas. You're a grown adult, come on.

'Sweat equity' is the main way senshi or knights in need can pay rent. What this entails is, you perform a certain number of hours of work for FloCo and that's your rent for the month. You can definitely pay rent in the more traditional cash method, but this is preferred.

Examples of 'sweat equity' work are: patrolling with new senshi, doing work on Florence Court property, cooking for other residents who might suck at it, and watching the door. Different jobs will be found for different senshi. For instance, Nick Wellington's 'sweat equity' is generally handling day-to-day landlord things with Finn Derouen, but he also helps paint walls, spackle holes, and install toilets. So, once your character's all set up, you can chat out what your character's rent would be!

Sweat equity is meant to give your character plot hooks. A resident assigned to work on Florence Court property could meet people at the Home Depot, or do threads with others with that assignment where they deal with installing cable jacks or something equally silly. You definitely don't have to pay an ~rp tax for having your character live at Florence Court. That'd be stupid.

Florence Court has built-in services available to the newly-purified or awakened. This is a good way for characters who don't necessarily want to live at Florence Court to get involved!

Mistral Squire of Mercury, also known as Anabel Au, is a clerk at the DMV. If you come in near the end of the working day, she will help you forge your driver's license application (or your state residency application) and get you on the road. This service is pro bono.
To arrange RP with this character, PM shibrogane.
Nick Wellington, also known as Super Sailor Oenone, is a resident doctor at Destiny City University Hospital. If you're hurt or injured and unwilling to create a paper trail for your injuries, he can help you out. This service is pro bono.
To arrange RP with this character, PM shibrogane.
Babylon Knight of Mercury, also known as Finn Derouen, is building manager and de facto house mom. If you need a ride anywhere or just want to talk, his door is always open and there's gas in the Jeep.
To arrange RP with this character, PM Silverah.
Ash, a technologically-inclined Guardian Cat, is available to help your characters with higher education get their registry entries changed! She can also do various other Guardian Cat things.
To arrange RP with this character, PM Bluefire Dragonz.

Florence Court is built to maximize unity for the disparate forces of Order, and for this reason maintains a basement community space for team-building events and safe storage spaces. A listing of events, which can be used as plot hooks, is below.

User Image
Alternating Thursdays, Nick Wellington has a "group therapy" session in the basement of Florence Court that is mostly "let's b***h about how much the Negaverse sucks!" Snacks and pizza are provided.

The second Tuesday of every month is Pizza and Sushi and Shitty Movie Bitchfest Night. C'mon out and watch classics like The Room, Rocky Horror Picture Show, In Bed With Ulysses, and the rare actual masterpiece like Legally Blonde. (But not the sequel; never the sequel.)

Character name: Delphine Amary / Eternal Sailor Nemesis
Link to plot thread: Journal
What floor? 3
Roommate? Yes, I have one already (Gehenna, should be posting here soon >>)

What can your character help with? Mentoring! Nemesis may not be the nicest teacher, but she's rather good at physically fighting, and is also really vocal about dedication to the Order side. Basically she just has a vast pool of experience and she needs to share it (whether she likes it or not).
