[forever_cheery]

[Phone call: open to all]Okay, so, all that zombie stuff is over, right? I see what you guys mean, now. That was terrible! Is everyone alright? Do you need anything? I know I'm new here, but I'd like to help if I can. Anything, you name it

[notsaul]

Yeah, happens all the time. Basically, like, the day after they stick you in some weird house, they give you some shithole job. Fucking sucks.

[forever_cheery]

Really? So you don't get to pick which one you want? I don't know anything about being a teacher, but it sounds fun, at least.

Do you have a job here?

[notsaul]

Yeah. Florist. [Considering that some plants can kill her? Not too happy about it.]

[forever_cheery]

Oh, that sounds nice! Though I wouldn't know how to take care of flowers, either. Then again, I think I'd have a lot of learning to do for any jobs here.

[His turn? HIS TURN.]

Jenkins-sensei! My name is Gilgamesh.

[forever_cheery]

Hi Gilgamesh! Jenkins-what?

[kinpika]

Jenkins-sensei.

[forever_cheery]

What's "sensei"? [This is a new one to her. But a lot of things are.]

[Greed's not really a fan of the clothes in his closet, so he's browsing the men's clothing when he spots her.]

This look suits you, girly.

[forever_cheery]

[She's holding this little number against herself while she looks in the mirror.]

You really think so? It's pretty great!

If I could wear red, I would want that dress now...

[all_ofthethings]

Trust me, it'll look even better on you than it ever could on that hanger.

The name's Greed.

it's pretty amazing

[forever_cheery]

[She beams!] Oh, I hope I can afford it then... But I can try it on at least.

Greed? [Odd name, but hey, this is Mayfield. Her 'husband' is called Norway.] Nice to meet you, I'm Aurora.

[Shion is totally captivated by everything he can find in the record store. To his knowledge, none of this can be found outside of museums and stories, so he's absolutely fascinated by everything he sees.

Give him a moment to look for the nearest person and quietly tap Aurora on the shoulder.]

Excuse me, what sort of device would be used to play these?

[forever_cheery]

Oh, um, it's a... [She makes a spinning motion with her finger.] A machine... A record player!

[skinprint]

I see! And they're a common household item?

[forever_cheery]

We have one in our house here. There's a few of these in the house already, but I want some more. Plus, I remember this guy! [She holds up an Elvis record.] He's really popular!

[mathisradical]

[ Oh, look. Niou's lurking around the girls clothes section again. It's completely normal to show an interest in female attire where he's from, really! He steps out from behind a rack of clothes and watches. ]

You'd look good in pink. It goes nice with your skin tone.

[ He's holding this in one hand. For himself, actually, but if she takes an interest in it, he'll pretend that's why he has it. ]

[forever_cheery]

[She beams.] Oh wow! That's great! Oh, do you really think so? I do like pink... Can I see it?

[Yeah, she wouldn't immediately think it was for him.]

[mathisradical]

[ He hesitates, but not long enough for it to be noticeable. He holds the dress out to her. ]

Sure. Especially in lighter shades like this one. Brings out your eyes.

[forever_cheery]

Yeah? I think you're right... Thanks a lot!

[She holds it up to herself, looking in a mirror. Pink does go well with her dark features.]

I'll have to try it on. See, I've got a job here now, so buying some new outfits feels right for some reason. Even if all my clothes here are all technically new, I guess...
