[ After the murmurs of job opportunities began to mix through the idle chit chat of the refugees, Ann wanted to get a few questions out to the people who may or may not have already started work. ]

Soooo... this whole jobs thing...
It's not as easy as it seems, right? I know we're suppose to work our asses off to make sure they keep the people in Thesa safe, but — has anyone had experience working with something like... that? Guards, scholars, and uh... adult workers.... It all sounds like some weird characters from a fantasy novel or something. Cliche, but given the past few weeks? Totally legit.

I guess I'm wanting to ask: how are you knowing you're a good "fit" for one of these jobs? Back home, I was...

[ She wants to say model, but she doesn't really give the deets too much. ]

Let's just say the closest I got to any of these kind of jobs were reading Shakespeare in school.

If you know of any normal jobs or have any pointers on talking with the recruiters, let me know!!! My skills include fashion, picking good places to eat, and persevering through unlikely circumstances! o(^▽^)o

Yeah, if you had spy training and stuff. Who knows, though? I just want to not end up drafted into some war or do skeevy stuff.

[ Always a good option. ]

Wellllll..... I need enough to make sure my fridge is stocked, you know? Food above all else! GOOD food, not gross crap, though.

[ She's honestly acting like this is an emergency. ]

[rhygret]

[ It's okay, Rhys sees it as practical and he can relate to the not wanting to do...skeevy stuff. He's not against people who have that line of work, far from it. It's just not for him. ]

Well I work in the market district right now with a few traders? There's this amazing baker there and oh my god like. Seriously you should try the stuff he makes? It is literally to die for no joke. I go there every day.

Proooobably should stop doing that come to think of it. But you could always get a job like that.

[burglarize]

WHICH BAKERY IS IT AND WHERE IS IT? I'm ready to die from badass bakery overload!!!!

[ Sorry, she absolutely is weak for food. ]

[rhygret]

[ It's okay, Rhys gets it. He understands.

And just pretend he's put bakery...coordinates/directions in here. ]

You literally can't miss it: cinnamon bun plaque above the door in the east market. I recommend the cookies with the strawberry icing, they are amazing.

[burglarize]

[ She needs a bakery pal. Okay. ]

You've just propelled to be one of the best people in this city. Congrats.


That sounds so good right now... ugh.

[rhygret]

[ Oh my god yes please?? At the end of the week/day they just message each other about the best east n sweets they've found in town. ]

It's always nice to have your greatness recognized.

But man...if only they did lattes or donuts. You know with the sprinkles? Man I'd kill for one of those right now. You think if I invented lattes for these guys I'd become a billionaire?

[burglarize]

[ Ann, stop befriending semi-shitty adults. ]

I mean, maybe. What if they have some weird fantasy version of it already?

Like, what do the gods in mythology drink? Ale...? Oh, no — ambrosia, I think? Coffee Ambrosia could totally be a thing already. :(

[rhygret]

[ No. Never stop befriending shitty adults Ann it's a great idea ]

If they have a fantasy version of a Latte I need to know where they make it like two weeks ago. I need coffee in my life again.

[burglarize]

[ I hate this. ]

Okay, so that's your mission. Make coffee or find coffee.

I'm either going to be very rich or totally broke.

Welcome to being every teen that stops at a cafe in Tokyo after school. It's lame, but worth it.

[rhygret]

What's Tokyo? Some kind of mall?

[burglarize]

That's the most depressing thing anyone has ever said to me.

It's a city. Like a huge one. I forgot the whole 'other worlds' thing. In one Tokyo, there are dozens of malls. And food stops. And buffets! :)

[rhygret]

Ohh okay, I get you. Wish this place had something like that. The rustic alchemy feeling is nice but I miss air conditioning and vending machines.

[burglarize]

Yeah this is just like some nerd setting in a video game, even down to spells and potions!

I'd kill for an energy drink... a sweet one.

[rhygret]

The potions and spells part is kind of cool though. Back home you only found that kind of stuff in board games and fantasy novels.

[burglarize]

IDK... It's charming at first but then you realize how frickin' weird it is because it sounds like it's from a fantasy book.

This kinda stuff is so unheard of where I'm from. To think this is "normal" just blows my mind. :/

[rhygret]

Trust me, it's weird for me too. Magic doesn't exist where I come from. The space and technology stuff sure but everything else? Straight out of a kid's book.

Only with more man-eating psychic spiders.

[burglarize]

Man-eating psychic spiders....

Sounds like you've had a fun...time..?

[rhygret]

Nope it was pretty much exactly the way it sounds. Which is awful. Nature sucks!

[burglarize]

Wait, no? The beach is awesome and that's pretty nature-y. :/

[rhygret]

Nooo thank-you. I'll take the resort beaches of Aquator over a regular beach any day.

[burglarize]

What does that even MEAN?

[rhygret]

It means unlimited daiquiris and a masseuse on-call at any time of the day.

No way nature beats that.

Like?? Hawaii was AMAZING for that alone! Forget alcohol when you can pig out?
