Ienzo had set his coat aside and folded it up neatly. The furniture was in well-ordered heaps outside the shop, but everything needed to be cleaned and painted before actually bringing things inside. He didn't even want to consider what they'd have to do to make the upstairs comfortable and livable. He reminded himself that he'd have to mention the apartments on the upper levels; people might be pleased to find a place to live that wasn't the hotel.

The ground floor was large and mostly open, though the space could be conveniently divided so that each business would have its own area. It did have back room space, fortunately enough, so that they didn't have to think too much about creating their own back areas. One of the back areas currently had several crates, one of which Ienzo suspected that several of the adults would prefer to get into sometime soon, given the general stress levels. Still, that would be a question for when they were open for business.

Ienzo took up a broom and headed towards the back to begin sweeping things out.

Ienzo tipped his head to the side. "Well, I know that you, Namine, have never been to a large party where you don't know everyone and I assume the same is true of Xion. One of the dangers is that people will add alcohol to drinks - either to a communal bowl or to your own individual drink. If you do not know what alcohol tastes like, you won't necessarily recognize the flavor and therefore can inadvertently become drunk. Being drunk impairs judgment and sometimes motor skills; without friends to look out for you leaves you vulnerable." Namine at least would recognize the need to not be vulnerable in an unknown crowd. For that matter, given the company they had kept at Castle Oblivion, she was likely painfully aware of the need to not be vulnerable with a known quantity.
