i've been trying to figure out what people even use this "internet" thing for and it seems like most people just write whatever they want on it, right? that's what it seems like. i saw a bunch of questions and some ads and some introductions.

there's an observatory here apparently. they let you go there and look at the stars at night if you want to. i guess the stars would be different here than they would on earth or wherever else. they have different constellations too which i guess makes sense. different star patterns and different cultural basis for deciding what shapes they look like to begin with.

every place is different. they all do things differently. around here you're supposed to hold hands or hug or fuck and maybe here that's no different than taking your shoes off when you go in the house or saying itadakimasu before you eat. i guess you're supposed to just get used to that. living here means that's just what you're stuck with.

i ran out of cigarettes.

so is that what people do when they decide they need money? just go on here and write "hey i'm out of cash anybody want to moonlace"? like it's a fucking bathroom wall or something.

yeah, i know, or get a job. last i checked you can't get a job in the middle of the night on no notice.

cigarettes. candles. incense. maybe someone who knows how to do calligraphy or draw. guess that's a shopping list that'll have to wait until morning.

[ciao]

in that case it is a restaurant that would make your nonna cry
other Italians I have met here feel the same way about the spaghetti shack

If you work at the bath house you’ll be treated with only the finest italian cuisine regularly

[starmark]

that's ok
my nonno already has the monopoly on that one

[EAT SHIT JIJI]

what do i have to do at the bath house
i don't have to help people bathe do i

i still get to wear clothes right

[ciao]

ah that kind of man huh?

we don't offer those sorts of services
so no you don't have to help people bathe
and yes you get to wear clothes


as for what to do, let me ask you something
what kind of position do you see yourself in any business?

[starmark]

jiji's definitely that kind of guy

and that's good to hear i guess

uh
i don't think i'm really a business person
i guess i'd be good at throwing people out of places
or
...lifting things?

[ciao]

i'm sure he has his good points, and that's why your nonna cares for him

good good!
it's always good to hear what people feel their greatest strengths are
afterall, who knows you better than you right?

but don't worry, you wouldn't have to do anything on the business side of things
germany is the director of operations and i myself just kind of oversee the final details
and work on as pr as well

but with these little details
do you think you'd be a better fit as a manager? or concierge?

[starmark]

i don't know

which one doesn't have to pretend to be nice to people
whichever one does less of that
that's probably a better fit

i don't want to ruin your business or anything
and i'd probably just scare people away if i had to deal with them a lot

[ciao]

I think a position as manager would be the right fit for you

You needn’t worry about dealing with customers too much, just when matters escalate
So for the most part you’d deal with employees

It sounds like you worry a lot about your demeanor
Have a little more faith in yourself, people are a lot more open than you realize
We can meet up any time you’re ready

[starmark]

[internal screaming is this how getting a job really works]

uh
okay

it's the middle of the night right now but i guess
anytime is fine other than that

tomorrow morning?

[ciao]

ah yes of course
I’m a huge mess right now since I’ve been painting so I wouldn’t make a good impression

We could certainly meet up after my sparring session with megumi in the morning
Do you enjoy espresso?

[starmark]

it's ok
it's not like i drink it every day or anything
but i've had it before
italian relatives

anyway that's fine
i can meet you wherever
