!{Winter splits time between looking again and gigs}
|
"Surprised to see you in today, Winter, and for so long."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The lynx looked up from her laptop, gratefully accepting hot chocolate number three from Malina. "I suppose I've been here for a while, yeah."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"About two hours." The badger hastened to add, "No complaints. The busier we look, the busier we get!"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The hot chocolate was good. Malina seemed to have picked up on Winter's penchant for whipped cream and piled this mug high. Something about the way the cocoa would break through the whipped cream was...not exactly soothing, and yet nonetheless she felt more at peace after.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"As long as I'm not a problem," she said.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Not at all. Just surprised you're not driving today. Figured it'd be lunch hour rush."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Winter shrugged. "Not really feeling it lately. Had a string of creeps, so I'm mostly doing Simpletasks and looking for something more stable."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Frowning, Malina looked around The Book and The Bean and, seeing no one in need of drinks, pulled out the other chair at the lynx's table to sit. "Hopefully nothing too dramatic happened."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"No, thank goodness. Just a string of bad luck with lewd assholes." She typed at her laptop briefly, pulled up a site, and turned it toward the badger. "Apparently there's a site for reviewing drivers on a sort of hot-or-not basis, and I guess I made the list."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Malina's frown deepened. "I'd say congratulations if that weren't disgusting."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Winter laughed and shook her head. "Yeah, no congrats needed.!{Probably need more here so that this section is longer} Either way. If you have any tips on job openings, I'm all ears."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Well, do you know anything about coffee?"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"I...well, no. Are you hiring?"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"We've got some shifts that could use some coverage." The badger smiled, shrugged. "It's a coffee shop job. Doesn't pay much and I don't have a whole lot of shifts open, but if you're willing to learn--"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Of course!" Winter caught herself short and laughed. "Sorry. Yeah, I'd be up to learn."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Malina's smile widened. "Great. Follow me."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Wrong-footed, the lynx tilted her head. "What, now?"
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
"Sure. It's fairly slow. I can at least show you around behind the bar."
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
She looked between the badger and her laptop, then shrugged and closed the lid, slipping it back into her bag. "Well, fuck it. Why not?"
