Attention, everyone!

If there are any aspiring butlers or maids in this sewer looking for a job, know that I'd be happy to help your budding careers by hiring you to be my full-time caretaker. As the position's unpaid you'll be working for exposure, but I'm totally willing to write you a great reference after I release you from my service.

Veterans with at least five years of experience in the industry are also welcome. You think you're first rate now? With my help you could be the best.





In the meantime, while I wait for applicants to pour in, could anyone lend me a shirt?

I too am used to having everyone do things for me. But you'll not find the same is available here. I've had to learn how to do many things for myself.

I can teach you to do laundry if you wish to learn.

[floozie]

You seem like a rational person, Sparrow, so I'll be completely honest with you.

I have no desire to learn how to do my own laundry. If I did, I would've written a message that said "Attention, everyone! I'd like someone to teach me how to do boring chores!" You know?

[arcadedragon]

I am preemptively offering so you do not need to post such a thing when it becomes obvious that no one will shoulder your personal responsibilities.

Should you wish to keep it quiet that you do not know how to do them.

[floozie]

There's always one person in a dozen who's willing to do what others aren't. It's worth a try, isn't it?

But I'll keep you in mind if I suddenly decide I want to lower myself to everyone else's level!

Were you some kind of noble before this?

[arcadedragon]

[From one rich boy to another: it's not gonna be pretty when you flood the whole living area because Dishwashers: how do they work?]

Heir to the Shimada clan. Not noble.

[floozie]

(dishwashers are an entirely new hurdle for spoiled brats to jump, genji. don't bite off more than you can chew!!)

A clan?

What's your full name?

[arcadedragon]

Genji Shimada.

If you're going to try to assassinate me I'd recommend against it.

[He managed to only flood his kitchen which he's considering a minor miracle.]

[floozie]

(i'm so proud of you, man... brings a tear to my eye...)

I'm not in that kind of work, don't worry; I was just clarifying something for myself.

Turns out I don't know you at all. Great news, right?

[arcadedragon]

[Lil cyber ninja growing up.]

If you say so.

Should I know who you are?

[floozie]

Nope, I'm just a rich, handsome man with too much time on his hands.

Zelos Wilder, at your service.

[arcadedragon]

What kind of service?

Rich and handsome isn't exactly useful. Especially since the rich part did not follow you here.

[floozie]

That's just a polite thing people say that doesn't actually mean anything, but I don't have to explain that to you. Besides, I'm rich in plenty of other qualities lmao.

What's your story, anyway? Do you know how you wound up here?

[arcadedragon]

If it doesn't mean anything then why say it?

I went through a teleporter and wound up here. And yourself?

[He was thrown through it. Shh.]

[floozie]

I don't know, ig I just grew up saying it. Good point, though; I'm going to strike that one from my usual greetings.

I don't remember a lot from that time, so I couldn't even begin to guess. Turns out it doesn't matter, because the way home's blocked anyway. Don't we have any whizzes around capable of fixing the damn thing?

[arcadedragon]

A few. They are working on it.

The teleporter only seems to work one way. They're trying to reverse engineer it to create another one but it's more complicated than that.

I think. I'm not a scientist.
