[Hello, Asgard. The entire city is treated to this lovely smiling visage.]


Hey there, Asgard. So, after a lot of thought, I've come to realize I really need to get a job. Preferably not at a pet store.

[Sorry, Scott, but if he had to work around Isaac and Derek, it was likely there'd be some sort of war involving projectile puppies or kittens. No one wanted that, man. No one.]

A man needs to be able to buy the finer things in life. Maybe some of the not so fine things as well. I don't know what the job market's like out here, but Stiles needs some dough.

[He needed to be able to impress, not that it had ever helped him before.]

Is there a sign up place? A help wanted section? A newspaper? Ye olde job market? Come on, help a guy out. I shouldn't have to state the obvious, but heavy lifting isn't my strong suit. Neither is anything involving having to move. Or do things that require effort.

[Okay, so it wasn't that bad, but he wanted to make sure his potential employer had lowered expectations. He might need to slack off to help a certain best friend out and if no one expected anything from him, that gave him a lot of leeway.]

So, any takers?

[teenyoda]

Hey, is that anywhere by Jade's pie place?

[Because he'd so been totally talked in against his will possibly convinced to work there.]

[holyfight]

Eh heh, Jade-san is my co-owner!

[teenyoda]

No way. You guys own a restaurant and a pie place? Or is this the same place and I'm just dumb?

[silverkhaleesi]

[She's not upset at you, don't worry. You don't really want to see that. And well, she doesn't want to think about Jorah right now, so she'll go with the zoo topic.]

Oh? A zoo? What is that?

[teenyoda]

It's a place where they take exotic to semi exotic animals and put them where people can see them. I don't know how good this one is, but the ones back home I guess were for people that couldn't travel to see things like elephants or giraffes or whales. I have no idea what a place like this would have, but it might be worth taking a look?

[silverkhaleesi]

[The queen frowns at that for a moment.]

Would they not want to put Drogon in a cage as well?

[teenyoda]

What? No. Well, maybe. But they wouldn't. They don't take animals that belong to people. That's sort of rule number one. They usually catch ones out in the wild, or ones that have been bred to be around people but the owners couldn't take care of them anymore. They're not just going to yank him off your shoulder or anything.

[dreamspinning]

I'm here all day. Come at your leisure.

[it's actually a very cozy bookstore, ushahin has just had an interesting life.]

[gymnast]

Yeah, I do. [ Even if Scott didn't tell her, she stops by frequently to see him. Shut up, they're adorable.

There's a brief pause before she lets out a soft laugh-like sound, nodding slightly as she does so. ] And now I get your point. Have you gotten any offers yet?

[teenyoda]

My hook's been nibbled on, if that's what you're asking.

[They're sickeningly adorable. He's not fully behind it until she lets him watch. How can he live vicariously through his best friend's sex life if he can't witness it? Rude, Allison.]

What about you? Where do you work?

[gymnast]

[ Her eyebrows pull together slightly in amusement because that? Definitely could be taken the wrong way.

And no. Stiles never gets to watch. Ever. Sorry, bro. ]

The Citadel and the Roadhouse. The latter mostly because a friend asked me to come on part time. [ The former because it not only allows her to train every day but she also gets to teach others how to do archery. It makes her feel good. ]

[teenyoda]

[Allison, if that hook was being nibbled on, he wouldn't need to live vicariously through Scott's wang.

Mean. You're just mean and hurtful.]

Uh... great. Sounds good.

What are they?

[gymnast]

Here. [ She filters through a few things on her bracelet before sending over the information about the Citadel. ] The Roadhouse is a bar, basically. I'm a waitress there.

[teenyoda]

Dude, can I just say that these bracelets are frigging awesome?

[Because they were and he wanted one back home.]

Oh? That wasn't the one we went and drank at, was it?

[gymnast]

Once you get used to them, I guess. I still don't get why they couldn't just give us phones. [ But it's not like she understands anything the gods do. ]

Maybe. Scott was a little too drunk to remember when he got back to the room. [ Which she was both amused and irritated by. ]

[teenyoda]

Phones? Phones, Allison? These are way cooler than phones. And you won't lose them. And you can call people from in the shower.

[Not that he'd ever call anyone from in the shower. Nope.]

And they're holographic. They're so much cooler than phones.

[God, Allison. Stop harshing his geek squee.]

We... might have stopped in at a few on the way to... somewhere. The place had nuts. They were good nuts.

[He remembered that much.]

[holyfight]

We make a little bit of everything, so it's probably the same place! At least I think it would be!

[teenyoda]

I have to go pick up... something first, but maybe I'll stop by on the way back?

[Stay away from his pie, bird. Seriously.]

[teenyoda]

I don't know about the everything, I just know she said Ryan made pies and that I could come get one. I'm doing that, you know. Coming to get a pie. A delicious chocolate strawberry pie.

That will not end up up my nose.

wow stiles wow

[thoughtless]

[ nope still special. not everyone gets to be a lizard.

the first line's easily ignored, the second not so much. jackson can't quite muster a sarcastic rejoinder, and his tone levels out, mockery replaced by thinly controlled hostility. ]

Keep it up, Stilinski. Maybe I'll do a reunion tour.

What? (innocent)

[teenyoda]

If Derek can't scare me with his huff and puff routine, you're SOL, buddy. Nice try, though. I'll give you a B minus for effort.

[Was he getting under your skin, Jackson? Good. Eat it.]

[dreamspinning]

That would be considered at your leisure.

Ah, and I nearly forgot. My name is Ushahin.

[because sure, it comes up on the bracelets, but it's not the easiest name ever]

[teenyoda]

Ushahin. Right.

[Weird name, but really, who was he to talk.]

I'm Stiles. I'll see you in a bit, then.

[dreamspinning]

Indeed.

[when stiles eventually makes it there, he'll be finding this, more or less. the raven, for better or worse, is nowhere to be seen.]

the real challenge of playing jackson is not hanging up on everyone

[thoughtless]

Derek's an idiot.

[ says the guy who's legitimately scared of his huff and puff routine. derek killed him once, okay. it's a thing. anyway, turning this conversation back to inane things like pet stores and jobs, thanks. ]

Why the new job? Did you and McCall break up?
