It occurs to me that in a place like this quality management may be difficult to find and even more difficult to keep. To that end, I'm certain that one of you may be in need of someone with my skills.

I would like to speak with those of you currently in need and see if we can come to an equitable arrangement. I assure you, you will not be disappointed.

If necessary, I can provide in-City references.

I must say that was quite the... enlightening weekend. I understand it was not entirely unanticipated, but I still noted the lack of... precautions that were taken in event of the curses. Are there any here who routinely take preventative measures and if so, what kind?

[Private to Niko]

Are you feeling better?

I'm feeling clothed. Did you know about Robin's little excursion to the laundromat?

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

No. Why, what did he do?

[cal-sitter.livejournal.com]

Oddly enough, when he washes the clothing he took someone to the hospital in, it takes him an entire day.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

...imagine that.

Promise, what happened this weekend? Not the generalities. I know those. The rest of it.

You're looking for a management job?

Yes, I am. You're Blue, aren't you? You run the Blue Note?

I'm Blue! It's the Blue Light, and I've been looking for a manager forever. I can do it but I really prefer just handling the music.

You're from Ishiah and Robin's world, right?

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

Ah, my sincerest apologies, how embarassing, I'm still getting acclimated.

But yes, I'm from the same world as Robin and Ishiah - and I do hope you don't judge me by the former, he can be a... handful.

Personally, I keep a private log of things in case I forget the City or my friends in it. Or I have a part of my closet dedicated to human-sized clothing when I get turned into one.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

That's an excellent suggestion. I take it you're not human, then?

[captainshort.livejournal.com]

Nah, I'm an elf. But the physical differences between my kind and humans aren't much except for height and ears. I'm three feet tall, normally.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

Ah. Elf. From a world that more closely resembles the myth.

I'm Promise, by the way. Promise Nottinger. Pleased to meet you Miss...?

I hide my gloves before midnight.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

And your gloves, what is their significance?

[mercifulsun.livejournal.com]

They are Lost Technology-it could be dangerous if I was cursed to be aggressive.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

Ah, hiding the weapons lest you are tempted to use them.

[priorcommitment]

No matter what locks one uses, the curses are designed to get around any preparations that we make. To that end, preventative measures... I'm not so sure they are easily taken.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

Still, I'm sure people try. I'm curious to see what they've come up with.

[priorcommitment]

Padlocks don't work all that well, so I'm assuming they rely on other contacts. A social net.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

Holly mentioned notes to herself, keeping additional clothing on-hand...

[winewomenand]

Enlightening.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

Yes. Enlightening. As chaotic as it was, for someone as new as me it was an excellent change to see the myriad things the City can do to us seemingly at will.

[winewomenand]

I always consider it best to not consider anything outside of the realm of possibility.

[missesthestars.livejournal.com]

So you just able along hoping that the next curse doesn't cause you to cause harm?
