[ ID reads Karen Starr.

Long time no see, network. This time Karen's post is not coming from the small comfort of her government housing, but from a brightly lit office. Situated against one of the walls is a dark red couch, a pillow propped up against the edge. The windows, though not quite large but neither small, reveal De Chima in the background for anyone who might recognize it immediately.

Though she's been living in her office for a couple of months now, the room doesn't look as lived in as one would expect it to. That's because Karen made sure to tidy up and make the office look as professional and presentable as she could before she dared to turn on the feed. However, her cat can be seen sitting in her office chair, peering over the edge of the desk and reaching for an elastic that's been left on the surface.

Karen, with her hair tied away from her face, smiles into the camera. ]


Hi there. It's been ages, I know.

Since there are many of you who don't know me: I'm Karen Starr. I'm co-CEO of Starrware Industries, located in De Chima, Virgina. We're an R&D company primarily focused in coming up with solutions to the planet's environmental issues. We've been trying to get approval on studying even a small sample of nanotech, but we haven't heard back aside from a "request pending" notif. So, at the moment my team is mainly working with artificial technology and semi-organics.

Anyway, we've been up and running since about September now. We're a pretty small firm, but recently business has picked up so we can afford a few new employees. I won't lie: the wages aren't really high, though if you're interested in doing some good for the planet and working alongside people with a similar passion and vision then you're more than welcome to drop off a resume at my office or contact me privately. There's a lot of bright and talented imPorts here, so I'd love to work with you if you're interested.

[ There's suddenly a light crash as pens and some papers are pulled off the table courtesy the cat. Karen gives a hapless shrug and then adds: ]

Annnd that brings me to a random question: anyone know any good real estate agents around here?

[ Seriously, it's time to stop living in an office. ]

Can't tell you much about real estate agents, but I can tell you getting a building permit is a pain in the neck.

And how low are we talking pay wise?

[ Because "not high" is still better than "no wage at all". ]

[ Don't count him out yet, Karen! He might be a full eighteen! He just doesn't know. ]

Below? Is that legal?

[ He doesn't know how these things work, he lived in a maze and ate chickens that other kids his age slaughtered for him. What is functioning in a normal society? ]

But hey, helping the planet. That is a good cause.

[ Bullshit, he doesn't actually care that much. It's just that he's technically unsettled, and doesn't have a whole lot in the way of paperwork, so he hasn't had a great time getting a job. ]

Make a permanent impression with a temporary stay. All right, sounds reasonable enough.

[ He's not exactly generous enough to consider doing this on his own, and definitely not for free, but he can respect that in other people. ]

Eighteen.

[ Likely. He figures if he wasn't before coming to this world, he's probably been here long enough to be close to 18 now. ]
runout: (In this context there's no disrespect)

Readily available? Nah, but I can cook something up in the next day or so.

[ They can't be that hard to make, right? Especially since he has no references or prior work experience. Haha... who wouldn't want to hire him based on that? ]

[ Flashing a friendly smile. ]

Heropa, but won't take me long to get up to where you are. Assuming you're up in De Chima, right?

Nah, I'll find it no problem. I'm good at this kind of thing.

[ In that he'll glance at a map for all of five seconds, and then if he manages to misstep, no big deal he's got super speed, it doesn't take long to backtrack with that. ]

[ Well he can safely promise one of those things. She gets to find out which during the interview. ]

Back atcha.

[ He'll give her a little salute and signs off. ]
