It's not exactly what I was doing back home, but I landed a job as a photographer with the San Francisco Chronicle. Most of the writers I'm working with seem pretty relaxed but one is super intense. That's the one I plan to follow the most!

Now other than holiday barbecues, what do you all do around here? I've been warned about weird things and now there's some guy talking about a swearing duck.

Being honest, I didn't really miss San Francisco. But in some ways it's good to be back. ~~The Tower isn't there, though~~

	Photographic Journalism can be quite a noble pursuit if you want it to be. I've been looking for a job myself, actually. I think I would do best at a school, but I don't know which school. (Reply to this) (Thread)

I've submitted a few photos for magazines and newspapers when I was first trying to establish myself, so it isn't an entirely foreign concept. It'll just be an adjustment being on a regular roster and going out with the writers and having a desk and all.

I know a lot of the people here teach at Mission. It's not a magical school but it would get you back in front of students? Unless you're looking for a younger crowd.

	Welcome. I'm the Queen of Ravka and everything about San Francisco is new to me. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	I sort of spent my teens here. We had our own building and everything. Came back recently and then left again and now I guess I'm back. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	We carry on with our lives as best we can between barbecues and fits of magic. Congratulations on your job. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Thanks. I guess settling into normal life can happen. It's just always weird starting off on it. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Congrats on the job. I've been enjoying ~~some extra flight time~~ the sun, but I should probably find a summer gig soon. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Summer gig? So you have a non-summer gig? Teaching? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I teach flying down at the airport, but clients can be few and far between sometimes and it's usually only on weekends. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Congratulations on the job. That sounds like a pretty cushy gig. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Doubtful. I mean, I'm sure there will be times when I'm sent out to photograph the judging of a gardening competition, but there's also the homicides, natural disasters, car accidents. It can be pretty gruesome. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm sorry, I spoke too soon. I should have figured. If it helps, I have an idea of what kind of chaos this city can bring. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	Have you taken the trolley yet? (Reply to this) (Thread)

	All the time when I was growing up. Less so when I learned to drive. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	We’ll be colleagues. Though I don’t consider myself intense, so perhaps you won’t be working too closely with me. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Somewhere, in some dimension, or multiple ones, Diana just rolled her eyes and sighed. Clark, that's where the meat is! All of the good stuff, the investigations, the heart of the city's crime. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Diana is your mentor? I haven't met her yet in my world. Well, if you go with me, I may be encouraged to be more intrepid in my reporting. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Really? That just feels wild to me, you've been a part of our lives since she took me in. She's kind of a mom to me and she trained me. Oops, just requested to be put on your next story, my bad! (Reply to this) (Parent)
