[ Jill's outside and looking out over the city. She hasn't been here long, but she can already tell she likes it a bit more than her old place. Sure, she's still trying to find a place that's more hers, but she has her cat Fore waiting for her and that's really all it takes to get through the day sometimes.

She pauses in between drags on her cigarette to speak up. ]

So, this isn't Glitch City, so I just gotta ask if BTC certification still carries. I mean, I've been trained in how to make a lot of different drinks, but the practice...

I'm a little rusty.

Uh what is a BTC certification?

[mixingdrinks]

British Trademark Council. They own a lot of bars in Glitch City. They have a number of programs they use for their bartenders.

Looks like this city still uses real alcohol for drinks, so I'm a little out of my element for the moment.

Hm, nothing like that here, even in Nova City.

Yeah, I kinda figured that was what's up. No biggie. Just means I have to practice more with the recipes I'm not used to.

[ Which sucks and will probably drain her pockets a bit but that's fine. Not like she's got anything else to do. ]

I will admit. No idea what on earth BTC is, but usually if you have a skill they usually hire you for it if you go in the right area.

That's what I'm thinking. Barhopping, but it's more like job hunting. [ She chuckles. ] It's not the weirdest thing to ever happen.

What being thrown into a world you never expected?

[mixingdrinks]

[ Hold the phone ]

"World?" All I did was move cities all of a sudden, right?

[trollkeru]

Yeah, but everyone comes from a different world so unless you knew this place existed and is from your world then odds are it's a completely different world even if it is just five cities.

A world of five cities, huh...

[ He's lost her, if the look of confusion on her face is anything to go by. Maybe he just means "world" in a metaphorical sense? Otherwise, she can't help thinking that sounds too much like a video game or something. Way too much for her brain to process. ]

Guess it's a small world after all.

[ Terrible joke there, Jill. No points for trying. ]

[trollkeru]

That's all we have, so yes.

[Which he knew wasn't a lot compared to like home or something, other areas will probably be huge but it's all he is aware of currently.]

it's probably strange, especially is people come from worlds that are huge.

[mixingdrinks]

More than a little strange. [ She chuckles, still not sure if she wants to believe it or not. ] But you can get used to any kind of situation if you're there long enough. Even if the world is smaller, it can't be all bad.

[trollkeru]

Pretty much. [Takeru had adapted way to easily considering back home he had to live months in another world when he was a kid.]

It does have it's plus sides, I mean you have five places that are different from one another.

Not sure what a BTC is, but whatever certification you have won't matter much. Most jobs want to see your skills first hand anyway.

[Voice]

[mixingdrinks]

British Trademark Council. They own most of the bars where I lived, including the one where I worked. I'm used to using their program for bartending, but you're right. If I can't flex what few skills I have, I'm just no good.

[ She doesn't sound too put out by it either. If anything, she's laughing a bit. ]

Got any recommendations? If I land in your favorite bar, I promise I won't muck up their menu.

[Voice]

[formerabyssinian]

I know there's a person who owns a few bars, but I've never been to them. Haven't been to too many, actually. Whichever one you end up in, I wouldn't mind dropping by. You'll need customer reviews, after all.

[He'll probably give her a hard time about it on purpose.]

[Voice]

[mixingdrinks]

[ Considering her typical clientele, a hard time at work wouldn't be so bad. But then, regular visits from a Jonah Jameson expy, talking dogs, androids, androids who work in the sex industry, and pop stars will do that. ]

Works for me. I'd say your first drink would be on the house, but if the house doesn't want me doing that, best I could probably do is getcha a discount.
