[03 || CITY'S MILKSHAKE MAKES ME HAPPY]

[sweetdeath]

Hisoka? Hisoka, the faucet in the sink is running chocolate malt milkshake. Oh, and I found a guy who's looking for waiters for his restaurant.

I-if it weren't that we still have to pay rent I would think I was in Heaven.

The bathroom sink is caramel apple flavor!? Someone pinch me, I've gotta be dreaming.

You got a cell phone that takes pictures five years ago? You've got to be from the future. Or something.

...and sorry if it's rude but I don't think I've ever heard of a 'Lifestream' before. What's that?

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

Probably a different world altogether, considering both of those questions.

It's... the life of the planet? When people aren't living as individual people or things, they live in the Lifestream. A tangible afterlife, I guess.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Different world it is. I definitely would've run across something like that if it existed in my world.

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

Well, yeah. Everyone knows about it, where I come from.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

That, and it'd be relevant to my job!

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

...You don't seem like the scientist type. Not creepy enough.

Spiritualist?

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

In my experience, scientists aren't that creepy. Unless they're offering cake.

Something like a spiritual detective, actually.

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

...You obviously don't have my experience.

How does that work?

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

I guess not.

Investigating weird things. ...I wouldn't recommend the job, the pay's lousy and the paperwork excessive.

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

I'm not one for paperwork, no. I am shameless in my admittance of enjoying grunt work.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Oh really? What did you do for a living?

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

It's a bit of a mess, but I used to be a high-ranking "SOLDIER" operative. Then some shit happened and I became a fugitive, and Shinra treats their fugitives like in-season game on a firing range, if you get what I mean. That's how I ended up here.

I'm not really looking for the same kind of work now, in any case.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Ouch.

...Yeah, sounds like a career change is in store. So what do you think?

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

The underground here reminds me of a place at home. I'm thinking about asking around and seeing if any of the clubs need some more security.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Not a bad thought. Wonder if they'd give you an employee's discount on the drinks?

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

Not when I'm working, I don't think. It looks like I have a different place to get smashed at - a friend of mine's really fond of the Lux.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Well, I meant after your shift.

The Lux? I'm really going to have to explore around here more.

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

It's next to building 3, near the Academy. It's a pretty nice place - live music and everything.

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Is that so? Well, hey, maybe I'll see you around there someday.

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

Sounds good! Let's make it a promise - celebration of new careers, yeah?

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Sure thing!

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

Which building are you in, anyway?

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Building 8, room 42; I'm staying with my partner and his cactus.

[plz-2-b-an-hero.livejournal.com]

..."Partner"? Oh, that detective thing, right?

Ha, and no kidding! Cloud's in building 8, too, so I might see you around regardless!

[cinnagami.livejournal.com]

Yeah, exactly.

Oh? Is he a friend of yours? I haven't met him yet, but like I said, it's only been a week since I got here.
