My new gal Ida is ready for the world and I'm on a plot hunt for her. There's a couple things I'm looking for, but then I'm also always open to suggestions for other things too.

-People in need of help. Ida is trying to do good deeds to unlock her charm and so she's out hunting for chances to be helpful. Of course, there's a decent chance that the helping will go horribly wrong.

-Friends-ish. Could probably go for some characters who are too nice for their own good that she could use in some way. Don't really expect a lasting friendship from that. On the other hand, she could use a troublemaker of a friend that she could mess with people, have fun, and be a dweeb with. She'd probably be a bad influence.

-Someone to give her a job, probably temporarily. With the days at her current place of residence numbered, Ida is going to need work, but most places probably wouldn't hire her. This would basically be her getting hired out of someone cutting her slack and then her probably proving to be a huge screw up and an awful worker.

-People to live with, be it for free while she gets her grips or something cheap. She could also go somewhere where she works or serves some purpose in exchange for a place to live even if its just a closet.

-Someone to help her get better at interacting with people. Might discover Ida just generally sucking at dealing with people and then lend a hand.

-Enemies. Ida tends to get angry with people and often has a difficult time doing anything directly due to her lack of strength. She would mess with people in other ways like dumb pranks and such in a sad attempt to make their lives more miserable. Basically just looking for people for her to try and mess with and possibly to teach her a lesson the hard way.

@PixelatedGlory gave me his blessing to say: Ida could totally move in with a bunch of other demons at Grovefire Manor. Grovefire is Colten Morey's home, and he welcomes other demons to live there with him.

Uzza / Violet also lives there, and is liable to become a mom friend for your terrible child.

Grovefire is pretty sweet, I’ve sent Alby in there before. That would certainly work. Would it be Uzza who invites her in or asks Colten if it’s alright or how would that play out? Also once she’s in, will her personality be fine or will she get the boot if she doesn’t act grateful?

haha Sazz would work great for that, Ida already hates his guts. I could maybe see her stumble upon Sazz heading to work and then attempting to get him fired by sneaking around and framing him for stealing snacks or something.

@Mint we would have to ask @PixelatedGlory how Colten would deal with Ida's personality and whether that would be a problem. There's probably any number of ways she might hear about the place and get there, including a conversation with Uzza or Chloe. Either of the Chloes could do it really.

So Uzza could be a mom-friend who tries to help Ida be better, or at least behave acceptably. She might also end up in situations Ida could help with.

And, after that ICC bit, Madeline could join the frenemy squad. Being "nice" to Ida, while also being mean about it.

Okay, we can probably either have that conversation come up in an icc interaction sometime or if not we can just say it happened in the background or have it happen in the beginning of a thread or in a short thread.

Uzza acting as a mom friend would be good for her and probably help prevent or at least to prolong the amount of time Ida stays at Grovefire before getting booted out.

And Ida certainly doesn't think too fondly of Maddie at the moment after the icc interaction. So if Maddie ever needs an antagonist for a plot, Ida is game.

Ftr Colten (and Grovefire staff in general) are reasonably used to dealing with ornery guests so she wouldn't be immediately tossed to the curb for being a little shit. But if she insists on thieving from the manor or being too disruptive after being spoken to a couple times she would be cast out.

But they do have significant connections so at the very least she could be fed and clothed and offered help in finding a job (and potential resources if she gets into trouble)
