[ When the feed's video flickers to life, people watching may notice one of two things: the first being that there's something a little different about Yuri's hair; it's been braided, after all! And the second? She's wearing something that, surprisingly, isn't the uniform from the afterlife.

After coughing into her mouth - it's a fake cough, don't worry! - she clears her throat, finally speaking up, her voice clear, concise, and somewhat serious. ]

Things seem to be normal at least. That means I can finally ask. I'm low on cash, so it seems that I don't have much of a choice: is anybody hiring? I don't mind learning from scratch, but only qualifications for a job is that it has to not kill me and that it's not perverted. As long as it meets those two, anything's fine. That means no cosplay cafes or pole dancing. If you even dare say something that breaks those requirements, well...

[ There's an innocent grin that curls on her lips as she speaks up in a cheery voice, her eyes widening like a child who just got a candy from a candy store. ]

I won't hesitate to punch you in the face, alright?

[ Then she goes back to her serious... or at least, somewhat serious voice as she tosses her hair aside, folding her arms over her chest as she continues. ]

And now that's out of the way... Are there any girls, women, any person, human or not human of the female gender who are willing to go shopping with me? I'd go with somebody-- but the people I know are idiots and are guys and I don't want them bringing up all their perverted, lewd, lecherous comments while I'm trying to get new clothes. So, if anybody's up for it, message me back.

"I haven't gone shopping with another girl for a while now, I'd definitely be interested."

[leadthebeats]

Oh, that's good! I was hoping that at least one person would say yes. [ Except for the fact that the feed is on audio, which leads Yuri to say: ] Or at least, that's what I would normally say. You don't mind switching to video just in case, do you?

[unbroken_chain]

The feed switches on, revealing - a perfectly normal fifteen year old girl.

"Sorry, I was kind of hedging my bets."

video

[leadthebeats]

Well, at least you complied.

[ She sighs, shrugging. After all, she would have punched the person if they were pretending to be a girl... ]

[all_wound_up]

[Oh hey, look, it's a robot girl wearing cat ears and a maid outfit.]

The cosplay cafe isn't that bad... most of the time.

Re: Video

[leadthebeats]

But considering who my friends are, I don't want to risk having to wear something embarrassing

Video

[all_wound_up]

Oh... I'm sorry.

video; oops, apparently my e-mail ate my punctuation marks!!

[leadthebeats]

Don't worry about it; you didn't know.

[ Though it's not too hard to find out, considering that she's so open with this type of information. Time to change the subject-- ]

Anyway, you're a girl, right? [ Even though the fact that she doesn't look human is a bit... unusual. Not that she cares much; she's seen worse. ] You don't happen to want to come shopping with me, do you?

[ ... she needs more girl friends to come with her, really! ]

[selematpagi]

... P-Pole dancing??

[ Yukko blinks, her cheeks aflush. ]

D-Do they even have that sort of thing around here?!

video

[leadthebeats]

I wouldn't be surprised if they did.

video

[selematpagi]

[ Yukko comes back without the blush. She's calmed down. ]

You could always just make your own job! That way people can pay you for doing... non-creepy things?

video

[leadthebeats]

Well, I could sell bracelets since I just learned how to do that recently.

[Video]

[eyewillprotect]

I'm a little busy, but depending on when it is I might be able to make it for shopping.

[ video ]

[leadthebeats]

It honestly doesn't matter to me, really.

[ video ]

[eyewillprotect]

Ah... did you find someone else to go with already?

[ video ]

[leadthebeats]

Well, I'm going with several people at different times, it looks like.

[Video]

[bondsofsuffering]

I don't know of any places specifically, but it shouldn't be that hard to find something. Just pick a district that seems like fun and go around asking about how they prefer you apply. You're a Visitor, so they'll probably let you work without much of a fuss.

[leadthebeats]

I don't just want to get a job without knowing things from other people, though.

video;

[bondsofsuffering]

So then... are you trying to find a job that someone else has worked?

[electricyousei]

"I don't have much shopping experience, but I'm not a guy. I'm not sure if that's what you are looking for though."

[leadthebeats]

As long as you're not an idiot or a pervert, it's all good.

[electricyousei]

"Everyone is an idiot sometimes, but I try to keep those moments limited."

[frequent_flyer]

[Cosplay cafe? Pole dancing!?]

[Hinata spends a few minutes mulling over the content of the feed, only to be subsequently brushed off by her request for female companionship before he can even get anywhere.]

[Ah well. They're not really the SSS anymore anyway... considering there isn't really a "God" to fight, per se. He might as well pick up some new clothes.]

[So there he was, in the shopping district, trying to decide between two seemingly identical red t-shirts. Maybe he needed some help "branching out"...]

[leadthebeats]

Just pick one already.

[ And there's Yuri, who's right behind him, carrying a bag filled with clothes slung over her shoulder. ]

[frequent_flyer]

[He's rubbing one of the shirts between his fingers, trying to decide if he likes the cotton blend when she comes up behind him. He jumps at the sound of her voice, turning to the source and offering a small grin.]

I haven't done this in a while..! I've been wearing school uniforms for... [He went to count on his fingers, giving up on that endeavor very quickly. Keeping track of time in the afterlife was a fool's errand.] ...a long time.

[Had he forgotten how to go shopping for clothes? Or had he never actually gone on his own? What a momma's boy. He gave her new outfit a once-over, having never really seen her in anything but a school uniform before now.] ...You look cute. Where'd you get those?
