[Hey, hey, this isn't her house. After some frowning and snooping around the unfamiliar room she's woken up in, Marica heads out into the living room to see if she can find out who's responsible for all of this.

... Later on, when she has a firmer grasp on what's happening, she goes to her proper home. Sheik? Boys? Anyone there? Soon afterward, she decides to address her journal.]

All in all, this shift could've been worse. It was actually kind of uninspired this time, I'd say.

[Action]

[realityanchor]

Okay, good luck. I'll stick around here a little longer in case any of them come back.

[Action]

[She waves him off! As the door closes behind him, she still gets the feeling that going out the front door is too ordinary an exit for her very unique cousin.

Later on, she leaves the apartment. A note on the table reads: "Emergency with the band! I'll be back for dinner! -- Marica"]

[And while Marica is on her way home, Piers happens to be out looking for some of the members of his giant family, especially one nephew whose father is missing...again.

Of course, he won't mind running into a friend.]

[HER PIERS SENSES ARE TINGLING.

She spots him immediately, but... but... Would she seem too clingy if she called out to him? Would she come off as annoying?? He looks kind of busy. Maybe she shouldn't bother him. He's probably thinking about important things, so she'd just be interrupting his train of thought. Y-Yeah, maybe it'd be better to just leave him alone...]

[Action]

[coolstempers]

[Well, he does have that giant family to look for, but he's heard from a good number of them at least.

But he'll go ahead and call out to Marica instead.] Oh, Marica! Did you end up in a strange place like everyone else?

[So far he seems to be one of the few that wasn't.]

[Action]

[realityanchor]

O-Oh! Piers! [Well, problem solved. She's waving, waving! And then she awkwardly makes her way over to him.]

I did, but at least I knew the people in my house. Um... H-How about you?

[Action]

[coolstempers]

[He'll go ahead and wave back. And being the dunce around women that he can be now, he doesn't even notice Marica's nervousness.]

I actually woke up in my own place. I don't even know why I seem to be about the only one I know not affected by this strange Shift.

[Action]

[realityanchor]

[D-Dammit, Piers's calmness isn't helping. She fidgets a bit as she talks, but she does her best not to look like a total wreck.]

Th-That's pretty lucky. Are you just out here looking for your family, then...?

[Action]

[coolstempers]

[Denseness, not calmness. And even if notices her nervousness, he's going to attribute it to the Shift anyhow.]

Mostly Amiti. I don't know where Alex disappeared to this time, but he's gone again. The rest of my siblings and nephews and nieces and cousins seem to be fine.

[Action]

[realityanchor]

[Heck, they're the same to her.]

I'm sure you'll find him soon. Oh, but uh, it would be faster if... S-So why don't we... [And she just kind of trails off.]

[Action]

[coolstempers]

Just because I'm looking for him doesn't mean I can't check on a friend too.

[Action] 1/2

[realityanchor]

-- So why don't we look together?!

[Action]

[realityanchor]

Oh, oops. Sorry, what did you say?

[Action]

[coolstempers]

[And this would be why Piers hasn't dated in a few years now. He thought Marica was going to say he should go look.]

Oh, I thought you were going to say you didn't want to keep me. I'd not mind looking together.
