[Locked to Jaune] (July 10th)

[she's sent him an extensive shopping list a few days previous, and is ready to begin to teach him how to cook on the most basic level. You have to learn how to walk before you can run after all. She has picked up a few fresh fruits and vegetables herself which are in the basket she's carrying as she knocks on the door]

[Locked to Dray] (July 10th) (later)

[she'll come by his studio with the box of promised shoes and a little bit of a treat to go with it. She doesn't know what he likes so hopes a little pouch of catnip will do. It's always good to go a little beyond for potential customers]

[locked to Torchwood] (July 11th)

[at Torchwood she is all business. She will visit every department and ask bluntly to see their expense reports. She doesn't bother introducing herself, imagining the young woman she'd spoke to had warned everyone of her arrival.

Be prepared]

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

[ Dray hadn't expected her to work so quickly and that means that he gives her a surprised look hen Imelda enters the studio. He was busy finishes some blueprints but those get quickly forgotten as he offers the omen a smile. ]

Hello, Imelda. It's good to see you again. Can I help you?

I came to bring what I've made. If you have the time. [she hopes she's not interrupting anything important]

You have them already? Oh, that's fantastic.

[ He gesture to a nearby chair. ] Make yourself comfortable, please.

They might need a few adjustments, but I have the tools to fix them.

[she sits, but doesn't seem comfortable. She wonders if he will speak her language again, but doesn't ask for it]

Try them.

Oh, I see. Okay..

[ He can do that yes, it's only after he sits that he remembers her native language. He takes the shoes carefully as if he's afraid he will break them. It's the first time he tries ones that don't hurt his fingers immediately and Dray's ears go up. ]

They're so pretty. Feeling something covering my feet is still strange but they're comfortable.

Of course they are. [she takes pride in her work even if it does tend toward simplicity] Walk around and see how they feel.

[ He smiles at her for that. Oh yes, confident people are the best to have around. Dray stands up and walks around the studio, slowly at first but soon enough he's laughing and jumping up a few timed to test them. ]

Oh, they're very sturdy! You did such a great job. You could be making a lot of money selling shoes.

Imelda! So glad you're here. Good luck dealing with everyone, yeah? Though, I'm sure you won't need it.

[SHE IS NOT SURE OF THAT AT ALL :V]

Mm. [she's not entirely sure but she'll do her job] And what is it exactly you want from this?

Well, we're already solid financially, just maybe streamlining it? I have a feeling I'm making more work for myself than necessary. L3 said she can do the paperwork if I get it digitized, but even doing that, I feel like I'm not really... efficient? If that makese sense?

I never did accounting classes or anything like that.

Efficiency is the first step to getting anything done. [and streamlining is a relatively easy process, so she's not intimidated]

How many departments do you have and what is it they do?

Departments... right. Yeah.

I don't know. It's all just in my head as each person...? Like Bad Dog, and Bowtie do most of the development of gadgets and toys, I still gotta get more on marketing because I don't mind doin' it all myself, but it's not as fun! Um. Same with foods. Science, tech, all that.

Thatch does main office. So we don't get unexpected visitors.

Uai is on dimensions exploration.

Koishi does all the youkai to human interfacing and certification of product. [That is a fancy way to say Rose feeds her "human" meat :V]

Cheshire does the tours for the Haunted House.

[Lists random NPC waiters and "chefs," and other staff.] Jack and Gwen do... a lotta everything. Management and field research and deliveries cause we don't have a store for the toys and stuff.

Matt does all our legal everything. And some other secret stuff.

Trunks is a field agent too.

[Taps a finger to her chin.] I hope I'm not forgetting anyone... Or projects.

And Martha's doin' vampire and blood bank deliveries, which is good, because the bank got hit up, so even though we can hide stuff better now with the Capsules, there's still a danger.

All in your head... [that's an overwhelming list. She can barely keep it all straight, though it will help if she has something]

Ay di mi Can you make a list? Some sort of guideline to follow? You're certainly not going to streamline anything if you're the only one who knows how things are organized.

[Ten is in his office as usual and knows that at some point that Imelda is supposed to show up. However, she'll have to knock first since his door is handprint protected and only opened by himself, Rose, Martha or Jack.]

[she does knock as she's neither rude nor ginger and patiently waits for a response]

[Ten knows that Rose told him someone is supposed to come and make rounds today- and he wasn't so enthusiastic as he usually is. Anyone who knows his face knows - knows this face is being - quieter. However, for a switch, it's not because he's depressed but because he's healing.

Opening the door with his glasses and a neutral face]

Hallo. Can I help you?

[she prefers the neutral professionalism]

I'm here to take a look at your accounts.

[His accounts. His accounts. His accounts, accounts, accounts. Ten pops his mouth for a moment.]

Right. Come on in.

[Yeah, he's got no idea what that business term means but none-the-less leads her inside]

I'm The Doctor.

Edited 2018-07-17 19:41 (UTC)

The Doctor of what? [it's a pretty impressive office though given what this place seems to be like, she wonders if anything dangerous is going on here]

Martha has been warned that Imelda may wish to see her expense reports, but as she doesn't yet have more than a week's worth, she's not actually expecting a visitor. If she gets one, Imelda will find her on her couch with her hair hanging over the arm, a heavy textbook held above her which she appears to be reading like a novel.

Imelda does knock and since the door is open enough, peers in.

"Is this a bad time?"

Martha sits up, almost as though the weight of the book is pulling her upright. She's trying not to be excited about talking to a skeleton, because that's both creepy and nerdier than she wants to be. Still, she can't help being friendly, now, can she?

"Not a bit. Come on in, Imelda, is it?"

"Senora Rivera, if you don't mind." And even if she does. What is it with the insistence of first names as if they know one another? Anyway she will have her respect in this place-- what she can get of it.

"I'm here to look at your accounts."

"Of course, Señora Rivera. Me disculpe, por favor." Which is about the extent of Martha's Spanish. She knows a little bit more from some of her traveling companions, but she's unlikely to try it and be more offensive for her mistakes.

Especially when she's barely managing not to count the good señora's bones and name them.

She produces a single sheet with her expenses and hands it over. "There isn't much. I've not been here long and most of my costs have come out of Rose's general budget so far."

She's getting used to being gawped at and this is hardly the rudest she's encountered. Frankly, she expects everyone here to be rude so this woman is the least of her worries.

"I see..." She takes her spectacles from her pocket so she can read it. "What is it you do here and what is it you wish to accomplish."
