My free month's almost up, and I've... been hit by an unexpected expense. [His cheeks tint as he glances quickly to a rose, slightly battered and propped up in a drinking glass with some water. It probably isn't going to make it.]

I need a job. It doesn't have to be anything fancy, and maybe I'd prefer if it weren't, just. Something. Any help ( Read more... )

Those I live with are moving to a new location and could use some people to help rebuild. The pay isn't much, but it's something.

If you do help, I might be able to help you find another job afterward.

mp_strife February 11 2011, 22:58:54 UTC

...That sounds perfect, actually. I'm decent enough with labor.

Name's Cloud Strife.

Doug Ramsey.

Michael Xavier and Jubilee are the ones you'll want to speak to, though I'll also contact them on your behalf.

mp_strife February 11 2011, 23:10:27 UTC

Nice to meet you, sir.

Um, you don't have to go that far. If you can pass on their numbers, I'll handle it from here.

If you need to pay anything right now then the newcomer fund could help out. We don't want to leave anyone on the streets if we can help it.

[voice] mp_strife February 11 2011, 23:09:36 UTC

...It's been paid, I just. Didn't expect such a high bill.

And no offense, but I'd rather rough it out than take from charity. Other people probably need it more than me. But thanks.

[voice] lawyerific February 11 2011, 23:17:28 UTC

There's plenty of funds, and this is what they're for. All of us were new here once.

[voice] mp_strife February 11 2011, 23:19:58 UTC

... What's the catch? It's nice and all to provide for newcomers like that, but it's a little too good to be true.

I'm guessing you won't want to join the police force.

[Not that she blames him.]

What other skills do you have beyond combat, Cloud?

voice; mp_strife February 12 2011, 01:41:23 UTC

Only because of conflicting interests, Mayer. It's nothing against the SPPD.

Um... [He has to pause to think about that.] Manual labor, maybe. Carting things around. Deliveries. Pretty much whatever an able body with half a brain could do.

voice; proxysearch February 12 2011, 02:06:29 UTC

Don't worry about it. I don't blame you. And you can call me Re-l, you know; we're not in the military.

Any preference?

voice; mp_strife February 12 2011, 02:26:40 UTC

I know, but it doesn't seem very respectful to call you by your first name.

Not really, other than staying clear of AGI or SERO's payrolls. But even now I don't think I can afford to be picky.

I...I thought we were going to get a new place? I mean, you don't have to if you don't want to obviously.

[Video] mp_strife February 12 2011, 23:55:16 UTC

I do! Want to, I mean, move in together. But I don't want you stuck in some crappy apartment, so I need to make sure I can pay my fair share.

[Video] meteor_heart February 15 2011, 07:34:37 UTC

[Whoa, way to overreact Tifa. Maybe it had been the two other times he had been here, but she'd almost missed that he was just looking for a job...not a new place to live.

Flushing with embarrassment she looked sheepishly off-camera.]

You don't need to do that you know, I can take care of us until you can find something you actually want to do.

[Video] mp_strife February 16 2011, 22:24:39 UTC

[Yeah, he isn't really sure what that was all about, but he's just happy she's still OK with this plan. He tries to look as reassuring as possible, maybe let his sincerity bleed through a little.]

You shouldn't have to; it's what I'm suppose to be doing, right? Protecting you. Paying half the rent isn't much, but it's a start.

Found any places that caught your eye, yet?

Well, wha'cha think you're good at?

[After a moment where she's clearly reading and hasn't bothered to turn off the feed because...Really, she's not too concerned about wasting other people's time. Especially Cloud's. Cause wasting Cloud's time is practically in her job description.

After a bit, she kicks the feed over to private.]

I know one of the law boys already gave you the run down, but the newcomer fund? Totally A-okay and legitimate. No skeezy sudden things poppin' out of the works to make your day awful cause you take a few gil. ...Dollars.

[And now she's whining like a brat.]...Exchange rate's weird here.

[He wasn't really expecting to see Yuffie so soon, not after the way he'd treated her when they'd first met. Sure, it had been awhile ago, but it still lingered on his mind, especially after Tifa had told him how they were connected. It made it awkward to look at her now, and even though there were so many things he needed to say to her, the most prevalent suddenly became that-]

You were spying on my calls?
