Not wanting to bother the neighbors in their homes yet so you were considering instead taking a trip to the laundry room and using that to have some one on one..for almost half a second before saying the idea in your head you realized how horrible it was. In your life you and laundry did not get along, or another view was you got along too well. Without trying you have pretty much become smeared and compressed into countless articles of clothing without going to a room who's sole purpose is cleaning clothes. Deciding not to give fate a helping hand you dismissed the idea as you began to walk down the Tiny Walkway in thought on where to go and socialize. As you were deep in thought of where to go you decided that you probably had a few other options here.
1. Surprisingly enough this apartment complex actually had an working arcade and even more surprising after an ordinance from the city last year called "No Tiny Left Out" or NTLO felicities had to accommodate for tinies to be involved in any activity an "regular sized" person could do. That was how the walk way you were on was made and what that meant for the arcade was inside their was a tiny only game center where they put those miniature game cabinets that were made for novelty sake in for tinies like you to use. You thought that the arcade would be a nice place to meet young people like you and chill for a bit while distressing with some Pac-Man. Although it had it's issues too, it was dark for one so it would be hard for most to see where you were, also junk food and gum littered the floor so it was a mine field to navigate. But the worse was the people that hung out there, you tried going to the arcade the first week Sara took you here to see this place, but when you were out of your sisters sight you were approached by the three high school girls who considered this their "turf", the "leader" eyed you up and asked if you wanted to, "be her lucky charm" whatever that meant and one of her friends was wearing a tightly fitted shirt around her bulging chest but the shirt was one of her sister's Katherine's merch, it depicted your sister holding you in a glass jar the chibi you frowning and your sister laughing. Before the teens could do anything though Sara saved you. Today is a school day and those arcade rats probably wont be there....right?
2. Their was also the gym here, a small place that could fit maybe a dozen or so people, you skipped visiting it yet for two reasons the first being if laundry rooms are a bad idea for someone of your size to explore then gyms were way worse. The second being that the already small gym had to make room for the tiny zone they had to build because of the city ordnance, the zone was barley bigger then a shoe box of course but the gym regulars were still peeved they lost any of their already small work out space. You were told by most of the other tinies to avoid it because the tiny that used to live in your apartment disappeared there. Maybe being the first tiny in a while to go will gain you the respect of your neighbors...yeah that could work..maybe.
3. Another good(?) idea was the sauna, it was a relatively simple bath and steam room that was mostly used by gym goers after a rough work out or people coming back from long work days who wanted their tense muscles to relax. Their were obvious problems with this one the main one being that the worst thing for a tiny is an person not paying attention and the very nature of the sauna meant that its users were either exhausted or so relaxed paying attention to an one inch man would be a tall ask. Also the Tiny Zone for the sauna was practically not a thing, to be fair it would be a tall ask for a small sweat box to be built into the building so the compromise was a red etched square on one of the seats that was encouraged for tiny use only. But from the stories Sara tells you from Vicky (a regular at the gym and sauna) it was mostly ignored and used by everyone.
4. The final choice was the built in pool, longing chairs people used to tan and rest, a huge pool that got to 10 ft deep it may have been an ocean to you, a jacuzzi that was very popular at night and a kiddie pool that was only 3 ft. Finally the tiny pool was a small thing that was long enough to at least get laps done with, when people did not confuse it with a foot bath. Though the thought of swimwear gave you pause, through out your child either by cruel fate or your sister whenever you were near pools or beach's you always ended under or smeared onto bathing suits.
Another reason you did not use the many felicities this place offered was because since the apartment was in your mothers name she also got keys to the felicities and loved to drop by unannounced or lend them to Katherine.
