"From a distance, the city appeared to teem with life. Neon lights tracing the contours of towering skyscrapers, sidewalks bustling with people. As she drew nearer, however, everything began to resemble one of those dreams you desperately wish to wake up from. They weren't people! The streets were filled with mannequins, and an eerie emptiness enveloped the surroundings. Who had arranged them here, and for what purpose? Suddenly, those faded films came back to her, the ones that showed how they tested atomic bomb explosions by constructing entire model cities — it sent a shiver down her spine. 'Calm down,' she thought, 'this can't be real; this city is genuine, made of concrete and steel.' Abruptly, one of the mannequins toppled over right in front of her, and on its back, a label read, 'Property of Supaya Corporation.'"

This has always been a really cute scene, but after reading Ikuma's chapter I'm just realizing how special and divine it really seems from Ikuma's perspective.
Ikuma being a poor and currently-starving ghoul in a new town, and God sends him the unhinged ghoul ally with an extra black coffee on him

i’m moving to new york in like 5 months because i got a job offer and just kinda impulsively said yes… any advice for new ppl moving to new york :’) im kinda worried
first off congrats on the job!! That’s so exciting and will probably make things easier in a lot of ways, that was the hardest part of getting an apartment for me and the job market here (like most things) is pretty competitive.
That being said I highly recommend looking into what apartment hunting is like here well in advance. Not just researching neighborhoods (it’s good to check which trains go to where you work, if you’ll be going in) but also dealing with brokers fees and knowing what amenities you need, figuring out if you’ll want roommates, etc, since my experience was basically that you need to be ready to apply on the spot when you tour, especially in the summer. There’s a lot of resources and a whole Reddit page dedicated to renting here that I found pretty helpful. I had a sublet for 2 months so I could have time to find an apartment. Things on there go quickly but listings project can give you a good idea of what’s out there, I think I found my apartment on streeteasy but toured like 15 places altogether.
In terms of other things, you’ll figure out the trains and navigation with time. What I wish I had done differently is doing as much as possible with the initial inertia of when you first get here: reaching out to any connections, dating, buying crazy shit on Facebook marketplace, exploring neighborhoods. It’s totally overwhelming but also highly motivating because you aren’t grounded by anything yet. Once I got settled and more secure I definitely lost most of that energy and I wish I had done a bit more when I had it, I feel like I’m just now trying to explore on my own more months later. Oh and download the got2gonyc bathrooms google map, it will probably save ur life at some point.
Honestly everything else (friends, activities, go to spots) I’m still very much figuring out for myself! It’s a unique city from everywhere else I’ve lived and it’s normal to take a long time to adjust (again I still am). Say yes to any opportunity you can to meet new people and try new things. Read up on the history of where you live and the places you go and be mindful of others around you. I find that New Yorkers are not always “friendly” but tend to be mindful/look out for others and are quite willing to strike up a conversation, at least compared to the PNW where I’m from. In general, people are pretty open to meeting up but it can be hard to really get to know one person. Wishing you all the best with the move and again congrats 💓💓

Okay so it looks we're not going Oreburgh just yet. Dawn wants to explore the city, and we just got offered some poketchs if we find three clowns.
So then Dawn points to us and goes "I already found them"
These 10 year olds are ruthless.
