WHAT
WHERE
WHEN "Day 44"

[the hip goth store Spicy Discourse is still hiring (come see Reaper if interested), but in the back breakroom, there are a bunch of cupcakes and fruit bowls for ~EMPLOYEE MEET & GREET.~ so if you are one of the edgelords or nerdlords that Reaper hired, come say hi to each other. You may be COMPELLED to do so.

Other than that, it's cloudy and drizzly today, with a lot of rolling thunder. The Thing in the lake is swimming around, and the item flashers are having a 10% off sale. Mingle away!]

[AT SPICY DISCOURSE: ALL YOU NEW HIRES COME SAY HI TO EACH OTHER.]

[Meanwhile this guy in black leather pants and a black hoodie with a skull on it, hood up and just a black void with red eyes inside it, is sitting against a tree. He seems tired maybe? Slumped? Maybe he's just meditating.]

[did you mean: SCARF FREE CUPCAKES]

[staffing the Spicy Discourse counter, looking bored and also less scruffy than previous days, thanks to her sweet employee discount.

or you can find her exploring the mall when her shift is done, either way.]

[ just sort of appears next to him out of nowhere, as fuckin usual ]

Ah, it really does look cool.

[ He's folding clothes.

And then folding them again.

And again.

It's not a terrible job but it looks like he has no experience in it................ ]

[Hello I am here for a job at the spicy discourse I guess. So I guess loitering around the store.]

[jerks back into focus.]

...What?

[here is the boss. what the fuck is this guy? what's up with the spooky mask??]

Hi.

[what's up with his weird deep reverberating voice???]

[buddy. Reaper isn't usually around the store itself but he is while he's looking for hires, so here he is to comment.]

Figuring things out?

[A customer!! At Spicy Discourse. She is currently sporting recent-arrival fashion of jeans and a t-shirt, but she's pulling stuff like this off the racks and holding it up to herself contemplatively.]

[laaaaughs]

Ah, did I wake you? My apologies.

[grunts]

I don't sleep. Just didn't catch that.

[Dude. What is up with the spooky mask and voice??? He will... Not stare though. If people wanna be extra that's cool. He's not here to judge extra-ness.]

Are you the guy to talk to about a job?

[you should see his casual leather daddy outfit,,, right now he's just wearing black jeans and a hoodie. and the mask.]

Yeah. I own the place.

I was just saying that you look pretty cool even without the mask. What are you exactly, anyway?

Thanks.

A human experiment, mapped by nanomachines, brought back from death.

[milling around his store for once, since he's got fresh employees. when literally all of them fucking suck, he sighs and floats over.]

You're new.

Having fun?

[Surely he pulls off the leather with the power of extra.]

Great. You should hire me.

[obviously!!]

Yeah? Why?

[she does a quick double-take at all of Reaper's... Reaper-ness... but rolls with it. She's seen stranger fashion choices. Though floating is a bit weird.]

Yup, you got me. Means I don't have a lot to spend for now, to be honest, but I can come back later.

I'm pretty good at dealing with bullshit. I've got a good head for numbers. And if I try to cheat you I can't run very fast.

[You know, being in a wheelchair. It's a joke.]

Nanomachines...

[peering at him curiously with that weird penetrating gaze. and then she just sort of. huffs.]

It really is pretty amazing, what human technology is capable of.

[shrug.]

Good enough. Vet?
