[ See Nero. See Nero frowning, his mouth like a wire-thin slash across his face. He adjusts the gear for a moment before speaking. ]

Got fired.

[ Come to think of it, this is probably why he and Buster are out and about in the middle of the afternoon, when Nero would usually be working; now a big, thick-shelled Shelgon, Buster is scurrying after

His name was Tiger? [yep, that's all he cares about :'|b]

[video]

[guitarnero]

Went by Wild Tiger. Wasn't his real name; he never said.

[video]

[allmyraeg]

Any reason why he didn't want people to know his real name?

[video]

[guitarnero]

Hell if I know. He didn't say, and I didn't give enough of a crap to find out. [ Maybe if Tiger had acted suspiciously, but he never did--he was just...a really nice derp. :| ] Why do you care?

[reasserts]

... you mean there are jobs out there that don't deal with dumbasses?

voice.

[guitarnero]

If you find any, I'm all ears.

voice.

[reasserts]

Pass. It'd be nothing short of a miracle. I mean, I'd say research, but...

voice.

[guitarnero]

Research. [ He says the word like it's toxic. ] I'll take being a cashier, thanks.

Finding a work place free of the ass impaired is surprisingly difficult!

S'why I try to find ones that let me be direct and blunt with anybody who gets mouthy.

[video]

[guitarnero]

Had any luck?

[video]

[manlymanly]

Worked at the desk in a hotel before, let me have minimal interaction and tell people off for being stupid about stuff.

... still had to play nice most of the time though.

[video]

[guitarnero]

Yeah, I'll play nice all right--just as long as other people play nice first.

[ And anyone who's spent ten seconds in retail knows that this not often the case. ]

Someone suggested security. Guess that'd suit me.

[ ...oh snap. He can't lie to Kyrie. Hell, he doesn't really lie in general, but especially not to her. On the other hand, though, he doesn't exactly regret his actions. ]

On her part? Maybe.

[guitarnero]

No. [ A pause, then: ] But I'm pretty sure.

[ He glances away, then back at her, then slides his eyes away again. This is code for 'you're not angry at me, are you?' ]
