[Private Note to Cake Town Staff]

I've got some ideas for Cake Town, so I thought we might have a quick meeting after we close tonight. I think we're ready to start growing, so I might have some new job opportunities that you guys should have first choice of taking if you want them!

---------------------

[Public to Everyone]

[Orihime appears, looking as cheerful as she normally does, and bows politely in greeting before rising with her hands clasped in front of her chest.]

I saw that a lot of people are looking for jobs, so I just wanted to let people know that Cake Town is always hiring! If you want to bake, or cater, or be a bouncer, we can definitely find a place for you to fit in!

[Did she say 'a bouncer'? She hasn't batted a lash, so she might be serious. Or maybe she thinks she's being funny again. Who can tell?]

Even if you only work for a month until you can open up your own business, we don't mind at all. It's a fun place to work, and you get to take home the things we didn't sell that day, so that's a fun bonus, ne?

[She beams. Free donuts is a pretty good perk in her opinion.]

Just let me know! We're pretty informal, honestly. And if you'd rather be a customer, we've got a new summer menu lined up that we're very excited about. Please give it a try!

That sounds delicious! I might order one someday. [Rich? Who cares about that? Erza and Mavis could probably eat the whole cake, just the two of them, if they were to put their minds (and stomachs into it).] Which one who you personally recommend otherwise?

[She gives the other girl a relieved smile.] Oh, okay. Then, I guess that's fine, yes.

[leekspins]

Yes, we're okay! But thank you for worrying about us.

[She bows her head cheerfully.]

Right now strawberries are at their peak, so they taste the best. Any type of strawberry cake or dessert! But if you can't decide, you can always try some free samples, ne?

I love strawberries! That's a good idea. I'll definitely come and do that.

You don't mind if I bring some friends with me, do you? [She's totally bringing the whole guild with her.]

[leekspins]

Oh no, not at all! Bring as many as you like! If the weather is good, you can use the outside tables too and eat cake in the sunshine. There's nothing like it!

Sounds like a plan!

[leekspins]

Yay!

[Suddenly Orihime looks thoughtful. Her expression isn't exactly sober, but she's quiet, just before she flips the switch to private.]

Actually, I have a favor to ask if you don't mind. I kind of decided to try running for the Guardian office of Genessia City. I don't know anything about campaigning, but if you can spare the time, could I shadow you for a day and learn more about what it's like to be a Guardian?

[That seems like it would be more useful (and less embarrassing) than waving a poster around begging for votes.]

[At first, Mavis looks surprised.] You did? [But the surprise is quickly replaced by a genuine smile.] Of course, Orihime. I'd be happy to help you if I can. [Especially since the current Guardian, David Haller, is very serious competition.]

What day would be suitable for you?

[leekspins]

Really?! Ah! Thank you very much!

[She glances at the calendar. There aren't really any major events coming up, save for the candidate campaigns and elections, so it seems like her schedule is wide open.]

Mmmm... Weekdays tend to be the slowest, but I'm ready to start any day that's best for you. I'll just prepare lots of batter in advance so we won't run out of stock.
