( It's been some months since Rose first showed up at the occult shop, brand new to this place and wide-eyed, her daughter's name tumbling desperately from her lips. Pleading with everyone she came across β Have you seen a little girl?
She's found her. Her little girl. (Not so little anymore, but still Rose's baby, always her baby.) And it's been so strange and surreal and beautiful and frightening. Rose has been handling it on her own well enough (though the dark circles under her eyes might suggest many sleepless, worried nights), but she's beginning to think she needs... help. Needs to make more connections with others here. She's wary to trust the natives of this place, but she's learned there are many Sleepers who seem knowledgeable on the supernatural. The blond-haired man with the strong accent and the shop full of otherworldly things is one of them. She'd also seen what happened with him on Maul's network post, and he clearly has some bite to him. Those are the kinds of people she needs.
So Rose seeks him out again, stepping up to his shop to let herself in, hands tucked into her coat pockets. She takes a moment to walk around, looking at the variety of strange items he has here, and leans in to look at something in a jar with her head tilted slightly. ....Then she starts lifting her hand as though to pick the jar up; clearly Rose isn't shy about getting her hands into things... )
