[The video opens on a grey outdoor scene. Conan's beaming broadly at the screen. He's wearing what should be a uniform jacket on a grown man but on Conan is more like a ankle length coat. He also has a matching cap that looks like it belongs to the 1950s. The reason for this quickly becomes clear.]

I have a job! It's not a very exciting or special -- but I got one! I'm delivering things for the post office in Hel! I'm still learning my way around the city, so if you see me somewhere looking lost, help me out okay? As a thank you, I'll deliver stuff for you too!

Oh, and if you're heading outside today, make sure you've got a scarf and gloves! I think it's getting even colder out here.

My uniform jacket? Laurent-niichan's taking it up for me so it fits!

[ So there's someone who can tailor clothes, then? Laurent... Jr. doesn't know him. ]

Gotcha!

[ He wonders how useful it would be to compile a list of people with such skills... ]

So what's the plan now, Conan? You free or are you heading back?

Though if you're looking for a tailor, one of my other friends just got a job as one -- she's saving for her own machine.

I think I'm free!

Man, Conan! You're a directory of people here!

[ He doesn't need a tailor right this second, but it would definitely come in handy for the future. ]

Her own machine...? [ Machine...machine...what does that mean? It must have something to do with being a tailor...

Oh! Those antique machines to sew clothes? A sewing machine? ] Who is this tailor?

Ah -- not quite! Like Loki-sama says, I've only met about a tenth of the people here ...

Nakama-neechan!

[ Loki-sama!? That earns Conan a curious look, but the following answer takes Jr.'s mind off that avenue. ]

Nakama? Huh. I didn't know she could sew.

[ Sounds like everyone is getting a job these days...Jr. dourly notes that he should probably start looking for one himself. ]

Say...how did you guys all get jobs? Did you find openings or did you just ask around?

I looked around for someone with a job I thought I could do, then I followed them to see where they went. Then I just went into the post office in Hel and told them I wanted a job. They were nice to me -- maybe 'cause I live in Hel.

Nakama-neechan got a job in a district that isn't where she lives, so it was harder for her. She had to show them an example of her work and everything.

[ Jr.'s expression says it all. ]

Whoa. I mean, when I was exploring this place, I sensed a bit of a House bias from district to district, but...

[ That definitely puts a damper on things. The major location in Freya's district is...the comfort house. Jr. shudders. ]

Dammit. Hey, I know I just asked if you were free, but do you mind if we raincheck it? This job market deal is something I really want to look into now.

[ Plus, the last time he hung out with someone...he was embarrassed to realize he had no currency to spend. ]

[holmes-fanatic.livejournal.com]

Raincheck -- we'll catch up again when it's a better time? That's fine with me, Junior-niichan!

Good luck finding a job!

[designerchild]

Thanks, Conan. I'll get back to you on the books.

[ For now, Jr. is a man on a mission. ]

[Salutes!]

Bye-bye, Junior-niichan!

[designerchild]

See ya!

[ TO THE LIBRARY for great justice. ]
