So far I like the new universe, except that I replaced a waiter. Thought I was done with this after college.

I am, however, the only waiter with a certified Grimoire though, so that's a plus. Good for winning bar bets.

	Bleh, waitering. That's what I do in the off-season, only with more waitresses because I'm a girl. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Yeah, I mean, it's a job, and I'm qualified for it, still looking for something that's more up to my speed though. I'm Maison. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, I just do it between competitions because I hate being one of Those Girls that lives off of Daddy's money. I'm Lilo. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	So you're one of the real independent women, not one of the ones who says they are but whines to daddy when anything puts a dent in it. Nice. What is it you compete at? Or should I guess? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I have pretty low cost of living, considering I still live with said Daddy and my Mom and my baby brother and my dog-alien-humanperson. You can guess if you want! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I'm going to guess... professional couch potato? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	HEY! No! I'm a professional surfer! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	That's even better. Never would have guessed that, chef was my next guess. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	means_family 2009-04-14 01:33 pm UTC (link)
	I could probably do that too, but only at a steakhouse or something. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	big_l_librarian 2009-04-14 04:18 pm UTC (link)
	Nothin' wrong with that, not enough good steakhouse chefs where I'm from. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Boo to your reality! (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	big_l_librarian 2009-04-14 04:53 pm UTC (link)
	I don't think it's my whole reality so much as it's just my town. DC isn't known for its steakhouses. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Boo to seats of government! So, instead of the noble profession of waitering, what should you be doing? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Thinking of another term for anti-climatic, but the only thing coming up is 'just plain sucks.' On the other hand, must make certain to tip you very well, or will wake up a newt. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	big_l_librarian 2009-04-13 09:41 pm UTC (link)
	That's only if I don't let on that I don't actually know how to work the Grimoire. Really it's just my unofficial job to make sure that nobody harrasses the waitresses. I actually made a couple ghetto-blaster thug-types apologize to Dinky earlier, that was pretty fun. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	steam_punk 2009-04-13 09:54 pm UTC (link)
	Ohh playing the air-head as an alibi for when the mischief happens.. Clever. Dinky? She must be a tiny hard-hitting blond with a brogue thicker than bricks. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	big_l_librarian 2009-04-13 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, it can be, I'm not really that good at it though, I actually don't know how to work the grimoire, not without exploding myself or something. I just repair them, I don't use them. Got the blonde part right, though it comes out of a bottle, and she's a recovering Texan, so more of a drawl than a brogue, but she's 5'2" and about as mousy as they come.

	Aww, day hasn't started for me if something hasn't started leaking the magic blue smoke or steam... Damn, thought 'Dinky' was for a girl the way 'Tiny' is for the six foot rugby playing marine. Should teach her to trash talk... (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	big_l_librarian 2009-04-13 11:29 pm UTC (link)
	Yeah, that's about how it is at the Library too. I figure it is if it's a nickname, but Dinky's actually what's on her birth certificate. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	steam_punk 2009-04-13 11:35 pm UTC (link)
	I so wanna bamf on over to this Library, but I don't know if cellulose-based materials and condensation-vaporization thermodynamics mix so well... ...She had some evil parents or a severely jipped mother. ~~Not that I have a leg to stand on with names...~~ (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	big_l_librarian 2009-04-13 11:37 pm UTC (link)
	Don't know if there even IS a Library here, I've been looking, but I don't have the same clearance I did back home, or they just don't exist, hard to say. What's worse? Dinky is her middle name. Her first name's Rinky. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	steam_punk 2009-04-13 11:44 pm UTC (link)
	I know, sorry. I haven't found anyone or anything from my dimension/verse/whatever either. But the place just sounds boss and geek-gasmic. ...Like 'skimmer rinky dinky dink, skimmer rinky doo'? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	big_l_librarian 2009-04-13 11:46 pm UTC (link)
	I'll keep looking, there's got to be something like it at least. Rinky Dinky Hinkley. She's pretty sure her parents were drunk when they decided on the name. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	steam_punk 2009-04-13 11:51 pm UTC (link)
	No kidding. She must have learned to fight a young age. See, at some age you can change your name. This is a prime example of why that is available. What do Yanks smoke while preggers?! And you are a saint for keeping an eye out for her. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	big_l_librarian 2009-04-13 11:55 pm UTC (link)
	I have no idea. But then again I'm a sprite, so, not the same gestation process as most people. And she knows she can change it, it's just she hasn't thought of anything better with the initials R. D., since that's like a family thing, her mother was Ruthy Dianne and her grandmother was Rhonda Delanor and so on. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)
