[ You can hear her tinkering around with something metal. Something heavy will clunk down once in a while, or you'll hear the grating of steel on steel. The voice, when it comes, is a little bitchy and very English:Here's how it fucking is.

You know someone else who likes chikkinz?

steamologist January 9 2011, 02:06:10 UTC

No, just you.

[ More mildly: ]

I'm making you a chicken pen.

That just leaves actually getting the smelly buggers. And a bigger place.

Psychic seems like a job that would be in demand. As long as you're not a fortuneteller or something.

What's wrong with fortunetelling?

[voice] oedipilot January 9 2011, 03:26:43 UTC

A lot of them out there. I guess not all of them are fakes - I believe in a lot more stuff now that I'm here - but I bet many are.

I don't think I can see the future anyway. Not that I've really tried.

I might be able to provide a job opportunity, actually. I am opening a garage and have need of a qualified mechanic to work there.

As a psychic myself, I plan on making the place friendly to such, figuring that someone with talents and abilities, as well as interest in the job, will do a good job.

Really? [ Maybe a little surprised. ] I'm bloody well qualified. I can kick any piece of shit into working order.

[Confident.]It should take about two days for the paperwork to be completed. I am more of a tinkerer myself, though I have worked as a mechanic before. I simply wanted a chance to do so again, and wanted the business not to suffer when i was not available.

Perhaps in two days time, we can meet there, and I can have you show me an example of your expertise? The garage comes with several cars already there, from clients who defaulted or the like. One of them should show enough challenge to let you prove your claims.

I'll be there. I like a good challenge.
