I am so glad jobs here don't do background checks. Or age checks. Or care about carrying a sword on you at work.

[Here's Rose, on the network, again, this time wearing a sort of military-ish uniform.]

Hi, I'm Rose, come drink at the Hangar Queen, this place is great, I'm a bartender now.

GREAT WORK AT FINDING GREAT WORK, ROSE! I KNEW YOU COULD DO IT!!!

[Not as great as his, of course, but that's a long way from not wanting a job however many weeks ago. What a good influence he was.]

[polyheroic]

Thanks! A job sitting around, listening to people, and making drinks sounds like a much better job for me than anything else.

... I was tell you to come by but also I don't know... If you drink, does it just, go through?

also video but mostly aimed at OTHER people, not Rose

[ Aaaaand there's the short hero's short demon girlfriend. ]

And I have a job too! I'm a bouncer!!

I've been told this means I get to beat people up, but that they will also deserve it.

[robodorable]

... This unit isn't sure that's supposed to be how it goes?

[polydemonic]

No it is. It was explained to me pretty well, I think.

[corpsacorps]

I certainly am not one to question why you may need a sword on your person.

[He's always covered in weapons. He's got no room to talk. The other two though? Don't care.]

I shall hope you've no use for it save for show.

[polyheroic]

It... may be sort of bonded to me? I'm a bit fuzzy on all of the details.

[ha ha. ha.

ha.]

Same here. Or maybe I can use it in like, some sort of bar show? Cut the tops off bottles, and stuff?

[robodorable]

Admittedly, this unit's knowledge of taverns may be out of date, but it understood that bouncers weren't supposed to fully beat people up...

Still, if your explanation is what it is...

[robodorable]

... How could you do background checks here, when it's a bunch of people picked up from other worlds???

[polyheroic]

Magic?

[robodorable]

Thankfully, Mordenkainen's instant background check is not actually a thing.

[polyheroic]

As far as we know.

[corpsacorps]

[He gives a lazy shrug. Hey, he's not questioning it.]

If you would like, of course. Simply take care not to scare the drunks with it terribly much.

... or do. They need it once in a while.

[Gale is a terrible boss.]

[polyheroic]

I bet I could do something where I like, balance the bottle on the blade's flat, then flip it up into the air, then cut off the top of the bottle and it lands on the counter upright... I mean, that's how they do it in movies. And it would be totally awesome.

... And it might bless the drink, or something? Like I said, fuzzy.

[robodorable]

This would've been very troublesome for some of this unit's past associates...

[polyheroic]

All you'd really need is a mind-reader, right?

[robodorable]

This unit doesn't think that scale of telepathy is accessible to most, thankfully.

[cool_skeleton]

UM, YUP! GOES STRAIGHT THROUGH THE MOUTH AND INTO THE REST OF ME. I'VE EXPERIENCED THIS MANY TIMES!

[polyheroic]

It doesn't just fall out the bottom of your ribs or anything?

[cool_skeleton]

NO, OTHERWISE MY BATTLE BODY WOULD GET SOAKED AND GROSS.

IS THAT...WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU DRINK THINGS...!?

[polyheroic]

Well, no. But I have organs there to catch it.

[polyheroic]

But, it is possible. So I'm right to be relieved in that not being a thing.

[corpsacorps]

... perhaps stick to empty bottles for your tricks, for the time being. T'would be for the best, I should think.

["might bless the drink" sounds a bit... worrisome. Or at least that one word is. He doesn't quite like that uncertainty.]

[polyheroic]

Well, makes it less messy if I mess up, anyway.

Thanks again for the hire, Bossman!

[cool_skeleton]

THOSE...SEEM PRETTY USEFUL!

COULD W-WE NOT TALK ABOUT BODILY FUNCTIONS ANYMORE???

[Cause then they might get to the end, i.e. bathroom stuff. No thank you! He didn't even know what bathrooms were for until he started having human food.

He doesn't want to discuss it.
