[Whenever Gu Yun decides to swing by the simulation room, he will find that it's already in use. Specifically, it seems like someone has cooked up an exact replica of a two story suburban home — not that he will likely recognize it as such, unless he's been to modern America lately. There's a small foyer immediately when he walks in, and Sheila is nudging a pair of shoes out of the hallway that leads further into the house.
Or, at least, she is until she notices she has company.]
Oh! Hi, uh... Yu Gun?
[A beat.]
... No, I mixed that up. Fuck.

[ this name mixup does not bother him any - gu yun barks a surprised laugh when sheila calls him by it, though, and beams, holding a hand up in greeting. ]
Close enough! [ wonder who yu gun is. he probably has an interesting life. maybe his next alias. ] Gu Yun, but you can call me Zixi, if that's easier.
What's this you've got here? Sorry to intrude.

[Yu Gun will be his new name if we end up giving this ye olde a glock. Petition for the mods to make this happen.
She's momentarily surprised by how well he seems to take the mix-up, before she just rolls with it. Goood.]
Well, I'm Sheila. This— [Gestures at the space around them.] ... Is my house. And I promise to not give you as much shit as I could if you ever screw my name.

[ please. yu gun... glock yun ...
yeah it doesn't bother him any. gu yun waves that hand to dismiss it - no worries, no worries - and glances at the space as she gestures. being in someone's house.. ]
Should I take off my shoes? [ teasing. ] Nice to meet you, Sheila - I'll hold you to it.

[ dw user toesies makes me write about feet
gu yun glances down, and lifts his foot to check the bottom of his boots. they are, in fact, pretty clean? here she can inspect. ]
Suppose that's the benefit of no longer being able to go outside.
[ does he pass the test. ] I've never seen a home that looks quite like this before. Where are you from?

[ hello sheila! it's friday afternoon now, and gu yun's at the bar. there's a glass of wine in front of him, and he's holding his phone, tapping at the screen, seemingly lost in thought, brow furrowed.
there are also cherry blossoms falling gently from the ceiling onto his shoulders and onto the ground? whatever. it's fine. he looks up when he hears footsteps, though, and raises his head in brief greeting. hey. ]

[ ...
realization crosses his face, sudden, surprised. gu yun hops up out of his barstool. ] -- I see.
Will you walk with me, over to the gym? I want to test a theory. Let me know if I'm going to step on any glass or anything else on the floor, if you can see it.

Because, I can't see anything that you just described to me. [ he makes his way across the room, probably stepping in broken glass, and pauses at the door. ]
...But, I think that our situations might be reversed at the gym. I was able to hear something there earlier, and I'm not sure anyone else could, save the people I was with initially.

[ deadpan: ] Good boots.
[ terrible. but, really! off they go.
it's not a long walk to the gym, but gu yun stops at the door. he gives it a test, first, making sure - it's still locked - but otherwise, takes a step back and folds his hands behind him. ] Listen very carefully. Do you hear anything odd?
[ seems nothing's amiss... ]
