Who: EVERYONE!!
When: Day 1, early morning but not so early that you'd encounter monsters from last night
Where: Port Perplex
What: You have arrived to the kingdom!

[you weren't sailing that treacherous sea for long--in fact, the ride seemed surprisingly swift, if not potentially sickening. but here you are now, standing in the port of Port Perplex, unloading yourself and your belongings as the old ship sounds its obnoxious horn for the seventh time. and, well, come to think of it, you're not the ONLY one getting off the ship!

on land, you and the others are bombarded by a crowd of cheering townsfolk! they throw confetti over you, try to drape flower neklaces around your neck, and also blast horns PROBABLY RIGHT IN YOUR EAR, ow.]

"Who are these people? Oh... OH! They're here to help us!"

"Thank you! Thank you!"

"Please, have some petals. You like petals, yes?"

"IS MY HORN TOO LOUD FOR YA? WHAT? WHAT DIDJA SAY?"


[...anyway, it doesn't take long for them to disperse and leave you be, assuming you aren't getting caught up in their antics. should you explore further into the town, past the harbor, you'll find that the colorful town looks like it's on the brink of a festival--banners, streamers, bunting, balloons... they're everywhere! is it because of you? one might wonder, but you'll come to find that the town will always look like this from here on out. on the contrary, the beach/cliff area surrounding this little town leaves a LOT to be desired.

the Queen said you'd get a room of your own at the inn if you got a part-time job. well, the Dolph-Inn's visible in the distance. in an act of kindness, the innkeeper will gladly allow you to keep any of your stuff in a room until you get a job! however, should you return jobless by nightfall, the innkeeper will just as gladly toss your belongings onto the street and shove a cardboard box into your arms. yikes.

so... what are you up to?]

((QUICK LINKS: F.A.Q. - SETTING - THE INN - BUSINESSES & JOBS

NOTES: Just a reminder that job acquisition is ~handwaved~, ie nothing about it needs to be actually threaded, and you don't need modly approval to say if your character taking this job or that job is ok or not! It's in your hands, assuming your character takes a job!

ALSO backtagging is totally ok if you join in late, and you are certainly allowed to make posts of your own when you're ready! But just as a reminder, posts should steadily progress time in a linear fashion!))

[ Said kitty shall be staring at him. ]

It sounds like some of the places might be willing to give training. Which is good news.
ninetyninelives: (yellow pearl my city is)

[wiggles his fingers at the cat, hi~~~~~]

I'm thinking of getting a library job, actually. I shouldn't need much training for that. My brother reads all the time.

[ Kitty will playfully paw at those wiggling fingers. ]

You're welcome to pet him. And library? I haven't stopped in there yet, but it does sound like a nice job to take.
ninetyninelives: (another clever word)

[personal profile] ninetyninelives 2015-08-15 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[yessss PETS THE KITTY]

There's a lot of options around here. None of the jobs sound too bad.

[ Kitty seems to enjoy the attention, soft purring. ]

I'll have to do further exploration before I settle in on my choice.

Explore quickly! The inn won't let anyobody stay unless they have a job.

At least I have a companion I'll be staying with here, so that isn't as pressing of an issue.

[ What a slacker. ]
ninetyninelives: (i don't know the mind)

[personal profile] ninetyninelives 2015-08-23 05:32 pm (UTC)(link)
That works until you get both of you kicked out for sneaking in a freeloader.

I wouldn't want to put Arthur out of house. I'll get to looking for something, even if it's just a temporary place.
ninetyninelives: (no hiding my feeling)

[personal profile] ninetyninelives 2015-08-23 11:48 pm (UTC)(link)
Any particular job skills?

You could try being a salesperson at the weapons shop.

That's not a bad idea. I could put my talking skills to work.

[personal profile] ninetyninelives 2015-09-05 10:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Sales is all about convincing chatter.

It sounds like you wouldn't be too bad at it, either.
ninetyninelives: (i must excuse myself)

[personal profile] ninetyninelives 2015-09-09 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Thanks, but it's the library for me.

Think you'll ever test any of the other places out while you're here? To try on the experience?
ninetyninelives: (i'm going you tell me)

[personal profile] ninetyninelives 2015-09-11 10:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Mm, maybe if I get bored.
