[video/action] Jobs and houses

Mar 11, 2011 14:56

Welcome, new feathers. I hope you all found the way to the clothes shop. If any of you have any trouble finding a place to live, let me know!

I've been wondering, what did most people do for a living back home? I've heard a lot of strange tales about jobs I didn't even know existed.

[If anyone's out and about, Tsuzuki is taking a well- ( Read more... )

[Oh, he remembers this voice.]

I am a certified astrobiologist.

Hi Robert!

That still sounds like a cool job. If a meteor struck Luceti, would your job be to investigate it?

[Voice] semper_cogitans March 11 2011, 23:53:35 UTC

[Robert smiles a bit, both at the recognition and the question.]

Well, I suppose I could, but my career is more slated towards analysis of living organisms rather than non-living specimens. That being said, I would certainly be fascinated to inspect such a meteor regardless.

... But this makes me wonder what your job is. [And now the mun is wondering if Robert even knows Tsuzuki's name yet...]

Oh, I get it. Have you inspected a lot of alien organisms?

[If they forgot to introduce themselves I will be amused.]

I investigate mysterious deaths.

[They totally did. :| Robert nods a bit, thoughtfully.]

Not directly, for the most part...

... So you are a forensics worker, essentially? [There isn't much call for them on Terra anymore, outside of the extremely rare murder crime or the medical industry.]

... And I just realized that I forgot to ask you for your name the last time we spoke. Bah, you must excuse my terrible informality. Though you seem to recognize my name, but... I am Professor Robert Alexander Hastings.

I suppose you could say that I work with dead bodies. [But only if you have a bad sense of humor concerning his coworkers.]

Sorry! I can't believe I forgot to do that. How rude of me. Anyway, my name is Tsuzuki Asato. It's nice to meet you. Again.

It is nice to meet you as well, Tsuzuki Asato. [Robert's pronunciation of the name might be a bit stilted - it isn't one he's used to at any rate.]

Forensics work is certainly an interesting profession, if somewhat... morbid. But if one does not object to one's body being used for scientific purposes, there is no harm in it in my opinion. After all, it is a way of collecting data - though normally there is no need for autopsies due to technology essentially compensating for it, physical evidence can be helpful in certain cases.
