do you have qualifications?
because SO MANY people have asked me what mine are.
where i'm from it's usually word of mouth, you know?

[saragi]

isn't that just what you've done in the past?
like your work experience and what makes you a good fit for the job you're applying for

[photosympathies]

that's what i thought but then someone asked me what school i went to and i've never been to one???
so i panicked and left?

[saragi]

what job were you looking at?

[photosympathies]

just a shift or two at some store.
they had a sign.

[saragi]

just tell them you've never gone to school
that's what i did

[photosympathies]

You know what's the worst?
This whole civilian identity stuff.
What if Eriks Stryfe did go to school??

[saragi]

don't think too hard on it
if you overthink it, you'll only make things more complicated for yourself
just keep it close to the truth
but still believable for this world

[photosympathies]

i'm not really good at lying.
but ok! i got it. i'll try again.

ANYWAY how are you alma? settling? need anything?

[saragi]

that's why you keep it close to the truth
it makes it easier to lie

i'm ok
just been busy with work

i'm glad that it's raining now

[ that heatwave was just not it. ]

[photosympathies]

what kind of job did you get?

and aw man yeah the rain helps.
is it not as hot where you come from?
it is where i do but it was pretty muggy for a bit and i was not used to that.

[saragi]

i'm workin at a restaurant, cafe, convenience store and bakery right now

it gets pretty hot where i'm from
so i don't really mind the heat
it's more about how it's affectin the current food supply

[photosympathies]

oh hey, you're gonna be the guy who knows where all the best snacks are! that's cool.

where are you from?
is it like here?

[saragi]

i'm from the gokurakugai district

it's pretty different from neo tokyo

[ it definitely isn't as advanced. ]

[photosympathies]

yeah this place is a little different from what i'm used to too.
i'm more desert.
