[So, one day Vince woke up and found out that he wasn't a barber anymore. Cool, cool, he's always one for a change, can't do the same thing for too long. So, he went to go find out where he was gonna work for now on.

And entered the land of his darkest nightmares.

You will find Vince at the butcher shop in various states of catatonic shock. He might

[This is Miku visiting her not!dad at the butcher shop. Gotta congratulate him on his new job, after all--wait.

...What on earth is he doing with the freezer?]

...Vince-sama?

[numanstan]

Stay away, Miku!

Stay away!

[perfectvoice]

Is something wrong?

[numanstan]

It's just not somethin' little girls oughta see.

[btw in his eyes you're like eight]

[Once the drone has her package, Howard just shoves her aside and leans over the counter looking vaguely terrified.

He doesn't seem to notice Vince's horror. Actually, he doesn't really notice much of anything--He looks quickly over his shoulder before he speaks.]

Vince. I need your basement.

[numanstan]

[just completely and instantly recovers from all horrors]

... Why do y'need my basement?

[jazzersizing]

Oh, you know. A man's got to have a base of operations, and it's got to be the kind of place where he's free to come and go as he pleases. A place where he can...relax without a care in the world.

[Basically he needs a place to hide from Old Gregg.]

[numanstan]

No way are y'leadin' your crazy fishy girlfriend to my bloody house.

... 'Sides, he already knows where I live. It's the first place he'd look.

[He's been waiting patiently in line, and sighs as you FINALLY finish serving the customer in front of him]

I'll have 4 sausage links, please.

First day, I presume? [Regular customer! Who will probably recognize you once he's heard yer voice]

[numanstan]

Do y'know what's in sausage.

[It's been a very long day and Vince is five seconds from going Greenpeace on somebody's ass.]

[reluctantnanny]

[For now Germany's more concerned about his lack of sausages than identifying voices, looks like.]

...Yes. I'm aware. I'd like the one with pork in particular, please. [He's trying to be sarcastic and make fun of the poor selection available at this market. SOMEBODY'S FEELING SNARKY TODAY.]

[Guess who's back to doing ~husbandly duties~ since his wife's perma-droned? This guy, who looks none too happy about it. He comes up holding a list to make his order when he spots you looking positively sick.]

Hey, since when did you work here?

[numanstan]

Since today, I think.

[freakinblur]

[Blinks at you

Vince looks positively green.]

So how's that workin' out for ya.

[numanstan]

Not... very good.

[numanstan]

No.
