004 [Video] On the Subject of Employment...

[ex_julianhe]

Hey. So, I've been doing some thinking. [ He swears this isn't a bad thing. ]

I need to find a job. Not that the MAC ain't great, but it feels kinda temporary.

[ That and the apartments are solitary and...we'll get to the rest of that later. ]Anyway, bottom line? I've been here a couple months and I don't figure I'll be leaving any time soon.

Hey, whaddya know, I'm in the same boat. I'll let you have all the job offers that aren't cool enough for me to take.

[ex_julianhe]

Always knew I could count on you, Santo.

[ Iconface :| ]

[rock_it_punch]

You can't say I never did anything for you!

[Also iconface.]

[ex_julianhe]

Yeah, you're like my rock, man. [ Insert eye-rolling ]

So what kind of job you after?

Voice

[emperorshand]

What kind of job are you looking for?

Voice

[ex_julianhe]

Anything that’s going. But if I have a choice, something active. Offices aren’t my thing.

Voice

[emperorshand]

I have active jobs available, but it's generally something the very skilled can do. What are your skills?

Voice

[ex_julianhe]

It’d depend what you need, what kind of job. Are you talking powers? Because I'm telekinetic.

I think I might have something, though.

[chesstotem]

What kind of work would you like? What sort of skills do you have?

voice;

[ex_julianhe]

Whatever I can get. I wasn’t exactly planning out a career before I got here. [ Which is code for, he’s never worked before. ]

If we’re talking skill sets, I take the hero deal here pretty serious. Did at home too, but I’m looking to pay bills. So like I said. Whatever I can get.

[chesstotem]

All right, if you're not against the prospect of some physical labor, I might be looking for some people to help with some construction projects here in the City in the near future. What was your name again?

voice;

[ex_julianhe]

Physical, huh? I'd prefer that to office work.

I'm telekinetic. If you need someone to lift, move, that kind of thing, I've got that more than covered.

Name's Julian Keller. What's yours?

I would have suggested the dojo, but we don't get paid that much, if at all for teaching there. Maybe you could teach at the Institute? You're an X-Man after all.

video;

[ex_julianhe]

Yeah but I’m a student there. I don’t think they’d go for that. [ Considering it’s Beast in charge…yeah. ]

[borntobewildcat]

Isn't Laura a student too, then? I know she's not officially a teacher, but she does those Danger Room session thingies.

You could do that.

[ex_julianhe]

I don’t know about Laura. I don’t even know if she’s gonna do classes there, she didn’t say. [ At this point he thinks you might know that better than him, Tom. ]

I guess I could if they let me. [ He doubts so very much that they’d let him. ] I don’t know, I’d kind of like to do something separate from them. [ Read: Not controlled by them. ] I think I might have something, though, that girl Ariadne says she has openings.

What do you know, now all of a sudden everyone's looking for a job!

The Department of Integration's always looking for ImPort social workers. It's not the most glamorous job, but it's a job.

video;

[ex_julianhe]

ImPort social workers? That…different from a regular social worker?

video;

[maggotbone]

Not really.

[ex_julianhe]

What's the job involve?
