[Riku accesses the second level with a purpose, and he looks determined with a dash of irritation mixed in. He is indeed still mad at Dad #1.]

Hey, so, uh... is anyone here hiring? Or does anyone know of places that are? I could use a job, at least till the bookstore's fixed. [Pockets his hands, trying not to fidget.] ... Yeah.

[SIGH, says Dad #2]

Look, Riku. It isn't a big deal. You don't need to find a job today. And...just forget what Dad said about your hair. I like it the way it is, and I know you do, too.

[versuslight]

[shrugs] I have kinda been looking for a job, it's just been put on hold until the bookstore's fixed. [He runs a hand through said hair, half-smiling.] I think it looks better than a crew cut would.

[2yoraedragon]

... He get on your case too?

[versuslight]

Yeah. Like forcing us'll make getting a job any easier.

[2yoraedragon]

I know.

He suggested I work in this weapons shop... I don't know. I guess I'd be okay at it.

[versuslight]

Weapons shop...? [He's marginally interested now.]

[knowsacrifice]

I bet I could get you a job where I work.

[versuslight]

Hm? Where d'you work again? With that turtle guy?

[knowsacrifice]

[Okay, that makes her laugh.] Yes, with that turtle guy.

[versuslight]

What kinda things do you do for Turtle Guy?
