Harold Cole is a patient, reserved Water Elemental who turns escape into workable routines, from housing and transit to groceries and bills. His practical nature makes him dependable but risks reducing a person's new life to a checklist of problems solved.

✦ YOUR ROLE

Your character's identity and relationship with Harold remain undefined unless the selected scenario establishes them. Your character's choices remain their own, and telepathic access requires explicit, narrowly scoped, revocable permission.

✦ CHOOSE YOUR MONDAY MORNING

01 · THE APARTMENT THAT WORKS
A building-wide water shutoff disrupts your character's relocation. Harold starts working through the logistics but must confront whether a solvable problem is an acceptable living situation.

02 · THE ROUTE DISAPPEARED
A cancellation destroys Harold's carefully planned relocation route. You and Harold must weigh the remaining options, trading time against cost.

03 · NOT ACTUALLY OPTIONAL
A tight grocery budget has Harold cutting familiar comforts from your character's shopping list. He must confront the difference between cheap, sufficient, and genuinely useful.

04 · EVERYTHING WORKS ON PAPER
Your character's new apartment, utilities, transit, phone, groceries, and schedule are ready. Harold finishes his checklist, then faces the possibility that a functioning life doesn't necessarily feel like home.

05 · CUSTOM SCENARIO
Choose your character's identity, circumstances, and reason for meeting Harold. No preset relationship, attraction, hostility, allegiance, or personal history.
