Console | Video | Hotel Announcement

[purered]

Good evening everyone. It has been some time since I've made use of the console, but I would like to express my gratitude to Kedan and Foreigners who came together in the aftermath of the hurricane.

While much work remains ahead of us, it is important to reflect on our accomplishments, and the difference we can make standing together.

Our Kin'nal friends have also chosen to stay in Ioa Elanog, and I would like to bid them farewell, and wish them the best in building their new settlement.

I also have an announcement with regards to the hotel. We are currently looking to hire on new staff. If you are interested, there are fliers in the lobby listing available openings.

The greenhouse has also been repaired, and cleaned up and is open to guests to use. Given the shortage of perishables, it may be wise to grow your own. I'll be heading into the Wood District tomorrow to see about getting some fruiting trees for the courtyard as well.

Thank you, and I wish you all well.

Actually, I could really use a job again. [Seen as his last place of employment kinda...vanished. ] I might come by and check it out.

I'm glad the Kin'nal have found a home they can settle in. I know it was much tougher for them to stay it out here.

I would be glad if you did.

They did not seem well-adapted to the fluctuating weather - I hope their new home is stable for them.

I can help with busboy stuff, if you need. Or even odd jobs around the place. That's what I used to do.

Me too. They can have a better life, hopefully.

That would be immensely helpful. There's a young lady your age working in the kitchen - do you know each other?

[purrns]

[Jesus, Klaus, not all teenagers know each other. GOSH. Though...in this case... ]

Yeah! She's my girlfriend.

Re: Video

[purered]

[Aw! Young love!]

Then you both have my congratulations.

I'll try to schedule break times and days off so they align then.

[He flushes, partly form being please, partly from being a little embarrassed. He's still getting used to the concept, honestly. ]

That's really kind of you, Monsieur, thank you!

Re: Video

[purered]

I am happy to oblige.

I'll add you to the payroll and adjust the schedule so that you can start your training in a week. Does that sound agreeable?

[purrns]

[Such a good boss. Great boss. ]

That's great! I'm looking forward to working with you.

[purered]

Likewise, Adrien. I hope you enjoy your time here.

[Hotels are everywhere in Tethe'alla. Zelos never once thought he'd end up working in one. Having a fling in one, sure -- more times than he can count. But he's never had to work before and he's got to start somewhere.

So he grabbed a flyer the day before, and he's taken a little time to look it over.]

Hey! Still need a bartender?

[It sounds fun, and it sounds pretty easy. What could possibly go wrong?]

Re: video;

[purered]

I would be glad for one and so would Lang-Hin. Have you done much bartending in the past?

[choiced]

Nope.

[This doesn't sound even slightly sheepish.]

But I get the general idea, and I can learn.

[purered]

I'm sure it will work out.

[It's not like they serve actual alcohol.]

...You have, at least, been to a bar once or twice?

[choiced]

[Zelos laughs.]

Oh, yeah. A lot more than just once or twice. The ones here seem a little different from what I'm used to, but like I said, I can learn.

[purered]

Well, if you think you can manage, then I'm happy to welcome you aboard. When you have time, stop by to fill out the paperwork, and I'll add you to the schedule.

Midnight Hotel

[commandandcontrol]

[ Klaus was an easy man to spot in the hotel, when Sonja came in. ]

Hello. My name is Sonja, I came to inquire about the administrative assistant position you have open.

[ Bookkeeping wasn't exactly on the same scale as nationbuilding, but she was good enough at it, and she needed the money. ]

Re: Midnight Hotel

[purered]

Ah, welcome Miss Sonja. Please -

[He gestured to the seat across from his desk.]

- Make yourself comfortable. Would you like some tea?

[commandandcontrol]

Some tea would be wonderful, thank you.

[ She takes the seat, as directed. She's confident but also nervous, so her hands are fidgeting a bit. ]

[purered]

[Klaus steps out, returning shortly with a pot of hot water, some cups and a couple canisters of blends and tea balls.]

Please, help yourself.

[He returned to his chair, folding his hands on the desk.]

Do you have prior experience to working in this sort of position?

[commandandcontrol]

[ Don't make it sound like this is below you. Don't make it sound like this is below you. ]

I was an intelligence analyst back home. Data management is kind of my thing.

I've also been working at the shelter doing bookkeeping work for the last couple of months.

[ She opens the tea canisters one at a time to smell. ]

Very aromatic. Do you mix these yourself?

[purered]

[He gave a small nod of affirmation. He was very. Very. fussy when it came to his tea.]

I do.

[But back to the subject at hand.]

That is a considerable task you had prior to your arrival here.

[A skillset he'd look for more in an employee for Libra than the hotel really. But the basic gist was the same.]

Will you be continuing on at the shelter as well, or will you be looking to take on a full-time position here?

[commandandcontrol]

There's a decided shortage of those positions in Keeliai, though. [ Dammit. ]

I will be continuing at the shelter, although I was looking to make it more of a volunteer job than a paid one to not put it out as much as I am. Honestly it feels wrong taking what little I am paid, considering that Brigid hardly leaves me any work as it is.

[purered]

[She tried.]

That's understandable. Is your schedule at the shelter fairly consistent? If you give me a copy, that would make things easy.

[commandandcontrol]

[ More consistent than Brigid's lately. ]

Yes! [ She starts writing out a chart. ]

Ah, what language would you prefer? If we share any common ones, that is.

[purered]

I'm fluent in English and German and I'm conversational in French and Spanish. Chain has assured me that my Japanese is charmingly guttural and mostly intelligible. So whichever of those you would be most comfortable with.

[commandandcontrol]

'Charmingly guttural,' I like that. But how well do you read and write it?

[ She started to fill out the chart in both English and Japanese for ease of use. A few hours most days in the morning. ]

I can alter my schedule as necessary, I'm not needed at any particular times.
