is the place that doubles as an arcade seriously the only bar in town? where do you people go to get plastered and make bad decisions?

yeah!
I was paid to be arm candy for rich older men who wanted a trophy girlfriend, mostly
not the most interesting client base but it had its perks

it depended on the client
sometimes no, sometimes that's what was necessary
I guess I say my job was being arm candy, but my actual job was getting information off those men
turns out a lot of them would tell a pretty woman showing them interest a lot of things they shouldn't

haha yeah
I was surprisingly good at it!
but haven't been in that line of work since arriving here, obviously, so just trying to figure it out

surprisingly?
nah
I was like all ready for that but
most people who know about it have been... pretty cool, actually

[personal profile] hasitsthorns 2025-03-03 06:20 pm (UTC)(link)
yeah!!
most people here are pretty cool, I've found
like obviously you always got your weirdos or assholes
but overall, good bunch of folks

[personal profile] hasitsthorns 2025-03-03 07:37 pm (UTC)(link)
what
nu-uh
you're fine!!

[personal profile] hasitsthorns 2025-03-03 09:00 pm (UTC)(link)
well, sure
but a friend back home who was a 'self-proclaimed asshole' was also my bodyguard
and one of the most loyal, caring people I knew
even if he could be an asshole still

it doesn't mean that's all you are

well, not directly
but you got it there: he had pretty bad self-image
probably hard to tell why, honestly, since he was built like a brick shithouse and quiet, kind
but he was also a werewolf and that came with a lot of unfortunate stigmas

haha oops
sorry, it's hard to tell over text sometimes!

if it helps, I don't actually think that
I just like yapping

bullet dodged, don't worry
no posturing to be seen!
and I'll keep mine to a minimum
