Hey guys.

The tea shop is gonna be open for the festival, for sure. But after all the stuff that's happened, we're gonna need a couple extra hands to work there. You'll get paid for your time.

...But you can't use the work to pay off your debts to my sister. Sorry.

Anyway one or two people to help us serve and stuff during the rush...uh, well, it'd really help us. If there're more then you don't even have to stay the whole time. Me and Zelos don't wanna miss the party either, y'know? So just lemme know if you're interested.

[[ooc: Briefly - Sheena and Zelos are married (!!), and they run a tea shop together. Best tea around, hands down, with little cakes and such to go with it. Oh, and Sheena remembers her attacker as a wild animal (instead of a wild Mithos). Needing some holiday help!]]

My muse is going to hate me so much next week, but this works perfect |D

"Think a certain someone might be too busy to join me-"

[AKA Jet's sometimes unwilling partner and crime/fellow coworker who could be seen being dragged everywhere by Jet, Zuko. No way is Jet letting Zuko out of going to the festival this year- even if he has to take every damn job in his place. And here Jet needed a convenient window to disappear from the festival with too. Perfect.]

"I could use a bit of extra cash though. We talking just the usual busing tables and serving?"

And cleaning up after. Most people in here don't make too much of a mess though.

If you say so. [The sound of a sigh. His debt is a concern in the back of his mind that Giles is always, always happy to lower.

Still. Extra money means more to spend on family during the festival. Giles is always up for that, especially for Vivi, and someone's going to need to pay for his and Helios' drinks.]

What sort of help would you need?

...You're one of the ones on Nami's list, huh? I don't care if you use the money you make to pay her. You just can't use work to get rid of some of what you owe.

I just need more of the, uh, movement-heavy stuff. Serving tables and things like that.

Re: [Voice]

[consultmybooks]

Yes, I'm on Nami's list. So thank you for clarifying.

...is tea for volunteers a part of the bargain at all?

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

As long as you don't drink my entire storeroom dry, then yeah. Most days I wouldn't get by without having any tea of my own while I worked.

Re: [Voice]

[consultmybooks]

Then I can offer my assistance for a while. Not on the first day - I'm, um, preoccupied for the first day. But if you need me after, I can help.

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

Great. I'll let you know the schedule we work out after I see how many people are willing to help. Is that okay with you?

[voice]

Sheena! [COUSIN. Jennifer sounds immensely relieved.]

Are you feeling well? The recent Shift didn't upset your health, did it?

[sundead]

I can help out some, if you want, Sheena.

[He's pretty used to assisting his sister sometimes by now, and extra pocket money is always good. Plus it's an excuse to stay indoors until the sun goes down.]

[voice]

[corrinesbell]

I'm fine. I stayed in my own house and everything. What about you?

[corrinesbell]

...Does that mean I've gotta pay you?

[she's joking, of course.]

[sundead]

Hey, I'm not slave labor.

[He needs spending money too. Borrowing from this family is out of the question.]

[corrinesbell]

I thought that's what little brothers were for.

[voice]

[redroseprince.livejournal.com]

Oh, yes...I was fine when I woke up. I'm glad it left you alone- I was a little worried...with your injuries, I mean.

[voice]

[corrinesbell]

I'm pretty much okay now, actually. Nothing to worry about anymore.

[sundead]

You spend too much time with our sister.

[corrinesbell]

Hey, I let you borrow money without death threats.

[sundead]

And thank you for that.

Re: [Voice]

[consultmybooks]

Perfectly fine. Just keep me in the loop and I'll be ready to help where necessary.

[and knock knock - there is a healer at your door later in the afternoon. She has a different reason for visiting today, but she was glad to hear the news about the shop earlier.]

[ action ]

[corrinesbell]

[and in the absence of an affable redheaded flirt, Sheena gets up to answer the door.]

Oh, Raine! I didn't know you were coming over.

[Voice]

[corrinesbell]

Okay. We're definitely gonna be closed for the tournament, at least.

[corrinesbell]

I dunno what you use money for anyway.

Oh sweet, I don't have to tear my hair out doing everything? You're the best.
