bluh booored
ive been back for what
not even a week
and i think im running out of things to do already :(
i mean i tried talking to a couple of the locals to get their color back
but they dont seem remotely interested in anything
its kind of frustrating

[It's almost like they're only slightly easier to talk to than Aradia was when she was dead! WHO'D'A THUNK. 0m0]

what do you guys actually do around here
whether for fun or in pursuit of the overarching color mission
i keep hearing about jobs for instance
whats involved in those

and on a related note would anybody like to go out and do something tonight

[She picked up that it was Aradia's ID after a second and scratched her head. How did she not know what the hell a job was? Ok, she was an alien from another dimension, but didn't they have something like an economy?]

You don't know what a job is? It's something you do that people want done that gets you paid. I'm working at a local clinic to prep herbs and medicines for them. It's mostly working with plants, adding them to other stuff so people can take them safely.

But, so far, I'm just trying to map this place. There's questions I want answered. I figure this whole coloring book crap will figure itself out. In fact, I know it will. [Not that she actually liked that fact.]

Screw it. What do you do for fun? I need the hell out of the house of horrors. I keep thinking something's going to jump out and eat me. Just don't say 'eating people.'

[It wasn't like she trusted this one, but she needed something to do to get her mind off of the frustration that this place bred sometimes. Her plans were going to take months, and that meant she was stuck here for months. It wasn't exactly cheering.]

Well, it's not as if this place is supposed to be full of entertainment.

Work is involved in a job, generally speaking.

i usually hung out with ar or terezi
but the both got sent home
so usually i got stuff going on but rn i just feel bluuuuh ;(

[OH HEY IT'S ARADIA HI]

Depends on the kind of job you want.

And I'm not doing anything, if you want to hang out or something.

Bored, huh? There's all sorts of stuff to do here!

[It's not really clear - but there's no adults on the homeworld, and the only two industries that exist seem to be entertainment and the military, so...]

oh darn it that is exactly what i was going to say
way to cut me off samantha :p
seriously though
it has been a very long time since i actually did something just for fun but uh
i used to like roleplaying and going on archaological digs
do you think either of those could be done as jobs?
since i dont know anything about plants

Well, if by roleplaying you mean something like what someone told me about, you might be able to turn that into acting. I'm not exactly sure there. The digs will have better odds. I don't think there's anything around here exactly like that, but you've got to be good at keeping records. Try over at the library. I'll bet they could use someone there.

And if you try to eat me, I swear I'll punch you.

[God, please let her be joking about that, especially after Kanaya's little blood drinking 'thing' she'd heard about.]

thats awfully dour
i dont know why theyd put in a carnival and stuff if nobody is supposed to have fun

thank you i would never have guessed that
what i meant is what kind of work
and how do you go about getting one

sent home
when did that happen

[She doesn't know AR, but it feels like she was just talking to Terezi! Even though that was like 2 weeks ago.]

i am open to suggestions!

what kind of jobs are there?
and yes that could be cool
do you have any preference as to what we might do

acting!
oh wow id never even thought about that
i will have to give both of those a try though

and no silly i wont actually try to eat you
wouldnt you taste like sulfur anyway?

[Don't tell her that the amount of sulfur in a cambion's flesh is only trace, and that the scent's pretty light all things considered. Wouldn't want to give her ideas.]

Yeah, probably a little bit, so not exactly prime cuisine. Anyway, you said you wanted to do something, right? What're you up for?

[Anything to change the topic.]

There's always the theme park, isn't there?

I've been thinkin' that myself. This place is kinda dull for my tastes.

Got anything in mind?

yeah thats in my district
id feel kind of silly going by myself though :p
perhaps i should round up a posse first

well there is a carnival thing in my district
i was thinking about checking that out :0

Actually, I heard the carnival is haunted at night or something like that. Just rumors though, nothing I can personally confirm.

haunted
like with ghosts?

[NO, WITH UNICORNS.]

[She'd probably feel worse if she realized Samantha wasn't just joking about the eating-her thing. But for now, TROLOLOL...]

weeell it so happens theres a carnival in our district!
ive never been to one before so itd be fun to check it out i think

[It was hard to tell with her if it was a joke or serious, given that for all her occasional nervousness, she did have a gallows sense of humor.]

There is. I haven't been over there, actually. I think it looks like an amusement park, so it should be at least a little interesting. I'll bring a little money and we can have a look around. Meet me downstairs at the door.

[Weren't there weird rumors about that place in the evening?]

ok!
we might have a couple other people coming though

[Pfft, but ghosts are awesome! NOTHING COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG.]

[That was actually something of a relief to her. She was still getting to know Aradia, and it was easier with more people around, provided they weren't all trolls.]

Sure. Just flag me down at the door when you're ready, and we can head out. The more the merrier.

[ IT'S CANDY MOUNTAIN, ARADIA. ]

Unless you know about other creatures that haunt things, I did mean ghosts. Probably some monsters too from the way people were talking about it.

im not sure
a few days ago i guess
ars room was emptied out and i spent twodays lookin for terezi nbut nothing
*but
;(

Any kind of work that you would typically find in a city. Retail, food service, clerical... Your answer is too broad for anything but a broad answer. You'll have to decide what it is that you're interested in pursuing.

I'm sure a bunch of people would be more than happy to join you. I could invite some others myself.

There's a lot, but you could probably find a pretty easy part time job. Like....delivering things or working as a waitress at a resturant.

You been to the park yet? or the amusement park?
