 So, um, wow...

This is going sound incredibly stupid on both counts, but would anyone mind lending me some advice on a couple of things? It's nothing really personal, it's just I'm having a little trouble with a couple of small things. (A breath, calm yourself, calm yourself.) Okay, so for starters... I need to look for a job. I used to work at the cat cafe, but that's gone now I think. So, I was thinking of something that I would like to do. And I kind of think I wanted to start a business again. I used to do that. A scooter rental shop in my own world and in another place I was at I ran a consignment shop...

I think if I was going to do that again, I would want to start a bakery or something like that...

(She might even be smiling based on her tone of voice now.)

What kinds of things would you want to see sold? How much do you think I should charge? Should I think about doing something else? What's setting up something like that going to take? What am I missing here...

(Oh, right. She has to ask about this other thing too.)

And now for the second part...

Does anyone know how to build those really cool, big pillow forts? I thought it would be something fun, but I'm having trouble even keeping this little tiny fort upright.

Well, on the second count, I think you need a zoning permit first.

[Miles, you ass.]

A bakery would be awesome.

[It's not like there's any shortage of bakeries in Keeliai, but one run by his roommate has several advantages: 1. recipe testing 2. friends and family discount 3. someone who actually knows what the hell he's talking about when he requests specific Earth pastries.]

And I've still got that liquid nitrogen generator sitting around, if you want to throw some ice cream in there.

Also, pillow forts? You remember I'm an engineer, right? [Yes, that includes structural engineering. Tony builds the best pillow forts.]

...a pillow fort?

That...doesn't sound very secure.

[The voice on the other end is very recognizably Irish.]

If you decide to start a business, I... could probably help with dealing with the Merchant's Guild, if you like. And a bakery sounds like a great idea.

[lasergrenades]

Okay, one: neither of those things are stupid. Two: if you start a bakery does that mean the house gets to be the test kitchen and can I please help taste test things?

[Pepper is obviously excited about these ideas.]

I know a bunch of the cafes and bakeries in the city, I might be able to help with, like, price comparison and stuff. They try to imitate Foreigner food sometimes, but maybe if you focused on Foreigner favorites?

I'm sorry, I'm not familiar. What's a 'pillow fort'?

[ Is she talking about like... the head cushion? A fort made of pillowy material would be unsuitable for any purpose she could think of. ]

[lostundercover]

Why not start with a decent cup of coffee?

[Because bakeries are just venues for coffee right]

There's been a few other businesses of the same type. You might want to check if any of those might be available for re-opening.
