Name: Bishop
Date: Early morning of the 5th
Format: Video

[ He's sat at the bar of the barely lit diner, Fushimi, weary, confused, and slightly intoxicated by the glazed and unfocused look in his eye. He rubs his face to wipe the slack jawed expression and hoping to find some semblance of focus and motivation in the motion. ]

Uhhh...hi. Yeah. Ummmm, I'm....I-I'm called Bishop and uhhhh....Goddammit

[ He opens and closes his mouth, hesitant to speak or unsure of what to say. Maybe a bit of both, he thinks to himself while looking away rub his face again. ]

God, I've fucked this already! UM! Right. So for those of you that know Enkidu and....Saori Nakagawa, they've, uhh, left. Like, 'gone home' left or whatever it is you wanna call it. So, if someone wants to add their names to that monument...thing, then go right ahead I d-[ He pauses, eyes bearing a glint of anger amidst the shimmering pain. ]

Anywho! I'll be...taking over this place, Fushimi that is, so no worries for anyone who frequents this place. It might be closed for a few days while I...sort out all this fuc--all this paperwork. Make it legal n' all that. Uhh, I will be in need of a few new workers. A chef or two, and a few waitstaff, so if you're interested let me know or drop by, either works. Work mostly nights. Also good with cats, that's important. Mmmmm...

...What else?

Oh, right and uh, I'm gonna need a new bond. Not immediate, I guess. I have a few months before exploding starts to become a concern. I'm...[ sigh ] fucked up...I'm a witch so, any monsters who need a bond hit me up. And, yeah, I think that's about it. Have a good night, or - fuck, shit, wait what time is it?

...

Uhh, make that good day. Bye.

[Wow, this guy seems like he's in real rough shape... He knows what it's like to lose people from this place, for sure.]

Hey, are you alright? If you need a hand or two over at your place I could help out! I'm pretty sure I could buss some tables or clean up or something. I just have some shifts at the orphanage I'd have to move around.

[Sora's rabbit ears twitch, obviously concerned. Maybe this guy just needs someone to talk to.]

Just peachy, kid. Just peachy.

[ He needs something to do is what he needs. ]

Well, you're going to school or anything so - yeah that's fine. Like I said we're open mostly at night so unless your gig at the orphanage is at the same time l, there shouldn't be a [ Hic. ] problem.

Yeah, that's great! I can help out a few nights week! I don't have school or anything like that. My name's Sora!

[What's school?? Don't know her.

All he has is daytime shifts at the orphanage!]

Uh, maybe you should make sure you don't get a headache though! Those hiccups sound pretty bad.

[ Before he replies, he finishes another glass of the spirit of his choosing - gin in this case - and tries to take a mental note of Sora and his details. ]

Sora. Got it.

[ Not that he'll act on it. His body is filled with bad things that need to be purged and alcohol is a great cleanser. ]

Do they? You don't say. They sound pretty normal to [ Hic ] me. Ain't that right Ss-[ Hic ]-Stella? [ And the cat not seen, is now heard by a gentle pitched meow. ]

[Sora, short kid with crazy spiky brown hair and rabbit ears. He's hard to miss.]

Do you have a cat? [The important thing.] I hope she's watching out for you anyway!

[Because Sora is still mildly concerned.]

I most certainly have a fairly small furry feline creature that meows at me for food and enter-[ Hic ]-tainment. [ Meow ] Just like that.

Are you good with cats? That's important cause, she's the greeter and the defacto mascot of the bar.

[ A beat. ]

Actually, hold on a second, how old are you??

[Sora gives a snicker but he does wiggle his rabbit ears.]

I like cats but I guess the real question is if they'll like me.

[He grins.]

But, I'm eighteen! Is that old enough? I know it's a bar but I used to do deliveries for another bar about half a year ago.

[ Eighteen. ]

Oh you're good then.

[ And more drinking. ]

You don't have to worry about the cat not liking you. The fuzzy food machine likes everyone. But just remember to keep her off the bar, and if she looks like she might fall asleep, move her to her basket out in the [ Hic ] front.

Also, I'd have to test you if you can do server stuff. We don't got any big plate foodstuffs, but we got a looot of little ones. And beer mugs. Lots of beer mugs.

[ And Fishimi doesn't have any of those little mugs, he Saori made sure of that. ]

Maybe sometime over the weekend. Afternoon to evening-ish so there's crowd.

Heh, great! I was worried for a second there!

[Who the heck knows what the age restrictions are in Aefenglom? Are there any at all? Sora doesn't really know. He doesn't really care to drink himself but it's not a big deal being around alcohol he doesn't think?]

Sure, I'll be sure to pack a few cat treats just in case! And I used to help cook once in a while at a friend's restaurant so how hard can bussing some tables and mugs be? I can do it! Bring on all the tests!

[Sora is confident to try it out!]

I should write down orders, right? And is there some sort of dress code I gotta follow?

[Give him one of those server's aprons. Please!]

There is a dress co-[ Hic ]-oode but -- generally it's just look presentable. Make your hair, wash your face, trim your fingernails, smell good, brush your teeth before shift, things your mom would remind you about before you leave the house.

[ He pauses for a moment to finish his glass and pour himself another. He's gonna keep going and those hiccups are only going to get worse. Or not. Who knows? Drinking is a mystery sometimes. ]

You'll also have a notepad to take orders, so I hope you write legibly.

[Gosh, poor guy really is going hard on the drinks. Sora doesn't envy him. He hopes he'll be okay!]

Sure, that's normal! I'll come in spic and span! Thanks for the chance, by the way! I think I have neat enough writing too! Leave it to me!

[Even if it might not look like it, Sora actually has that fancy Disney cursive. Lucky!]

[ So one of those annoyingly nice handwriting that just get on people's nerves just because he has to make a conscious effort to make his readable. ]

Not a problem. Just make sure you're on time. I'm pretty generous with most things but opening time is opening time after all.

[ There's an audible meow, several consecutive ones. ]

Even the cat says so. Or she's hungry.
