⚠️⚠️PETSITTER WANTED⚠️⚠️

This is a serious post, I am truly in need of a petsitter.

Notes:
-This is 100% a petsitting gig, but it's not an animal it's a person.
-Not some weird kink thing, you'll understand when you meet him.
-It's an easy job, we can work out whatever compensation you find fair.

The job:

Basically, my friend is a high functioning magic savant and a non-functioning everything else. That is not hyperbole, this boy will go into a fugue state and not eat for three days if you let him.

Your responsibilities are:

-Feed him three meals a day. He's not a picky eater. He just needs food set out in front of him three times a day or he won't eat. If you can't be there to physically put food in front of him, make sure he has sandwich fixings at home and harass him until he texts you a photo of his sandwich. Make sure he hydrates as well.

-Make sure his bills get paid. He will have more than enough money to pay for the bills, your job is to make sure they get paid every month. I'll put everything on auto-pay that has auto-pay but just keep a general eye on his finances. He will not know what month it is half the time he is asked and he's never had to deal with bills before.

-Keep the fridge stocked. I will provide a list of foods he can prepare for himself. Once a week check everything and toss out anything expired. I will provide the money to purchase anything he requires.

-Take him out for walks. Literally just makes sure he gets outside at least once a day. This won't always be necessary, he is outgoing and likes to socialize so he will often venture out on his own without prompting. However, he will also sometimes accidentally stay inside working on a project for a week straight if left unsupervised and that's where you come in.

In short, feed him three times a day, make sure bills get paid and groceries get bought, and make sure he's not collecting a thin layer of dust. That's it. That's the whole job.

He's a kind, funny, and generous person, so if you get along with that kind of personality it won't even feel like work.

That said, he is kind and generous to a fault and if you take advantage of that in any way, I will not kill you. That's the threat. Whatever I do to you will not at any point involve death. So be nice.

Let me know if you're interested. There's a few more detailed instructions for whoever lands the gig but we can cross that bridge when we come to it.

'Huli'?

Well, I do believe I am wholly unsuited to the task, as I tend to be more like your friend himself. If I didn't have my husband reminding me to eat and sleep at relatively reasonable times, I'd probably forget too if I am absorbed in something.

But if he ever drops by my house or I see him outside, I'll gladly invite him for a meal.

[descendency]

Oh, it's a nickname. He goes by 'fox' like, the animal? I thought it'd be cute if I called him Fox but in Chinese and it stuck.

You're a good person, Beitang-ge. I'll make sure to introduce you guys! Is there a good time to drop by?

[beitangmoran]

'Fox'. We... may have met already. I did meet someone who introduced themselves as that, at least.

The door is usually open and there's someone at home at all hours. I tend to be at the Luna Scientia in the middle of the day, but otherwise I should be in.

Will you also require regular feeding?

[descendency]

Nah, I can take care of myself. I'll come visit, though.

[ he is Lying. this used to be true. it hasn't been true in a while now. ]

Was he about this tall? Freckles? Real cute?

[ mingyu gestures a little higher than shoulder level on himself, smiling proudly. ]

[beitangmoran]

The height and description matches, although I shall leave the potential 'cuteness' up to your interpretation.

[Aka, he doesn't really pay much attention to that, Mingyu. This is the guy who when asked point blank if his husband was attractive answered 'I don't understand the question'.]

We tried to make some plants grow with Chroma. Quite.... energetic young friend you have there.

[descendency]

It's nice of you to say it like that. Used to diplomacy, huh?

[beitangmoran]

I am, yes. It has been ingrained in me from a very young age.

Being kind first is never a bad thing. Besides, he cannot help being this enthusiastic and restless. It wouldn't be nice of me to be unkind about it. I can always remove myself from the situation if it gets to be too much.

[descendency]

Ah, diplomatic and thoughtful. That's a rare combination.

Can I count on you to help me keep an eye on him then, Beitang-ge? He really doesn't need much, just. Help.

[ ...and moran genuinely seems like the decent sort, like mingyu can relax a bit around him. that feeling doesn't come easily to mingyu these days. ]

[beitangmoran]

I can most certainly keep an eye out when I am free.

And you should come by too, if you'd like. The door is always open.
