[Cue camera.]

[Desmond looks downright annoyed.]

So much for the market, yeesh. Just got my ass booted outta there by a guy who looked like a goddamn shaved bear. I was gonna pay for that shit! But he comes at me all nyeh nyeh nyeh!

You would certainly earn much selling yourself.

[shirley, get out.]

[soldiersblade]

[Well, that was unexpected.]

... how much d'you think I should be asking for? Just outta curiosity.

[thenobledie]

I hardly know the rates of Dismas.

[she was joking! ):]

[soldiersblade]

[LIKE HE'S NOT?]

Crap. Well, there has to be a standard rate for seasoned veterans, pft. Or at least a benefits package...

video; what even is this...

[thenobledie]

[they are going to get along so well! meanwhile, she does look...vaguely amused.]

Of course. One wouldn't want to be unkind to the experienced.

video; daft transpirings, that's what

[soldiersblade]

Exactly! See, you get it. That's why I like you.

[Success! He's not even hiding that grin. My, she's a looker when she's amused... even vaguely!]

video; ...about right, yep.

[thenobledie]

It's unfortunate what slips by most, hm?

video; .... WORKS FOR ME

[soldiersblade]

Well, they all can't be as hip and with it as we are, right? Pff.

[Laughing, now.]

So! What do you do to earn your keep around here? And don't say "bordello headmistress", or we'll be back to square one...

[thenobledie]

[A PAUSE. she is curious where that came from because really.]

Clinic work.

[...not that she has to pay for anything, besides the food she buys now and then.]

[soldiersblade]

[She shouldn't be. Heck, they were just talking about the business of body selling, heh.]

You're a... doctor? Or a nurse? I bet you're a doctor!

[Hey, food's important! He's a 20something year-old bartender-- yeah, he knows what it's like to live off ramen noodles and frozen waffles for months at a time. Feh.]

[thenobledie]

[still! she didn't think she gave the vibe that joking she is a brothel headmistress is appropriate.]

Something of that sort, yes.

[lol magic.]

[soldiersblade]

[At least it's only a joke! He'd be inching away for fear of catching crotch mites or something if he actually thought it true, oho.]

Hummm... well, there isn't much else you could be in a clinic, unless you're a receptionist or something. [Thinkie think.] But nah, I still think you've got more skill than that.

Dunno why, mind you.

[Derp derp.]

Can you sing? Or like... do you like singing? Or trying to?

[thenobledie]

[dskfsd lmf get out]

Why you ask?

video;

[soldiersblade]

Well, cuz I'm a bartender, see, and I intend to follow suit with my chosen career here, if I can. [smirk] And I happen to encourage singing when I work, whether we have live shit going on, or whether I have to start it up myself.

Essentially, what I'm sayin' is that whether you can sing or not, you better come by and help me with it sometime.

If you know anything Irish, that'd help.

[thenobledie]

[has...not the slightest clue what "irish" means. lol, totally different planet and cultures, they're awesome. but she knows some drinking songs! and a few other songs.]

I'll make certain to visit one night.

[shirley likes singing! she probably sang to her comrades now and then before the whole dying thing; it'll be like old times for her. ...sort of.]
