[ ayano li's house. ]
Built along the outskirts of Ame's Capital City, a small appartment stands beneath the ever-tearing sky. It seems newly repainted, in the shade of offwhite; the roof pieced together with black shingles. The only frontal features is has is an black, old wooden door attached to rusty hinges, and a broken window next to that, set in a similar black frame. It seems to stand out against the neighboring buildings, who were all decorated in fairly neutral colors.
The house appears to be only one story high, but from the inside, it's easy to see that it is built down, and not up. The above-ground section has three rooms: a kitchen/dining room mix, a bathroom, and a parlor. All are situated with fairly old-looking furniture, as if they had been handed down among the generation. The kitchen and bathroom are tiled with a black and white diamond linolium flooring; while the parlor has a warped wooden floor.
Hidden in a closet-appearing addition in the living room, a set of stairs roll down to the floor below ground. Here, there is no natural light, and only two rooms. The first room entered from the stairs, out of another closet, is a bedroom. There is a single lamp on a bedside table, and a couch that looks like it can be pulled out to form a bed. There's a small dresser, and beside that, another door.
This is the main room of the house, and where the owner spends most of her time. It's the largest out of all four previous, taking up much of the bottom half of the building. One whole wall is lined with paper, and there are various art tools spread out along the floor, random tables, and other such things. Here, there is a light switch near the door, that activates a light handing from the ceiling above the center of the room.
