video; mcdenny's revived

[enginium]

[A teenager of the modern era though he may be, Iida Tenya has never been especially adept at the finer art of technology. He had engines in his legs, knew quite a lot about engines as a whole, but mostly those of locomotives or automobiles. Technology was an entirely separate beast, and one he knew only well enough to fumble through use of a smartphone with, as one may call it, two left thumbs.]

[As such, he's entirely too close to the camera on his phone when the feed starts, and he startles away upon the realization. As he does so, his surroundings become clear-- a vaporwave nightmare of a restaurant stands behind him, making the light blue of his polo look fluorescent.]

Greetings, people of Lunatia! I, erm. Seem to have come into accidental ownership of this funky little joint my boss called McDenny's, I'm certain you all remember Mister Alfred Jones. I couldn't bring myself to change anything about the place, even if I haven't the slightest of an idea of the style, but McDenny's is now reopened! And if anyone has more experience in running a business, by all means feel free to drop by and lend me your wisdom, I'm afraid I'm very nearly winging it.

[ooc; so my roommate is the former-America, and i've been meaning to make this post for like three months? better late than never, i guess?? anybody that worked for america at mcdenny's is free to assume they've retained their existing positions or abandoned them, iida's just too much of a square to have not kept working even when his boss mcfucking vanished.]

In my defense, I didn't see the harm of it initially.
I am learning the folly of my ways.
None so much as I can find. Mr. Jones was... Something of an eclectic business owner, he sort of just did things as they happened.

[good_ideas]

that's usually the case
but it'll probably be okay if you stop now
or make him pay

and if you can't find it you should probably make a plan
and start keeping track of your expenses and stuff

This is of course assuming he actually comes in for his supposed duty when I inform him of the very stringent guidelines under which he is allowed to rip. ...Which is never, outside of if he were to otherwise be severely harmed himself, if you were concerned.

Oh, that I have covered.
I actually started something of a ledger even when Mr. Jones was still here.
It's more that I'm uncertain how to go about actually running the place, when all this time I've just served tables.
It feels a bit odd to suddenly be in charge.

[good_ideas]

why would i be concerned??
i just want to make sure you actually survive and don't go into horrible debt as a first time business owner

[Which is not concern, okay]

is this the part where i tell you to believe in yourself?
if you already have a plan and know what your expenses are, you're probably going to be fine

[enginium]

Luckily things here seem to function a little differently given most of the currency exchanged is Chroma.
If I were under more real-world circumstances I wouldn't have leapt into this with such wild abandon, I assure you.


Much appreciated! I believe it will work out all right.
Feel free to come by anytime.

[good_ideas]

that's true
it's pretty cheap to do anything here

i won't come by unless i get free food

[Which is a lie, she's definitely going to come by and give him Chroma but she'll never admit to it.

And she never has to because she's anonymous.]
