WANTED: 1 courageous soul willing to run weekly shopping errands for this week and the next. Buyer will be compensated for purchased goods and for time spent. Must be able to follow a list. Must have more patience than I do for the modern American custom of swarming the shops en fucking masse during the week before Christmas. Thank you.

I'm from a mining town so a lot of men there are sort of used to that as well
but it's nice to get out to the countryside every now and then right?

[devoutish]

Do you know, two years here and I haven't been very often. I rode out in a mate's car once.

text

[melodramagic]

maybe now is the time!

text

[devoutish]

Have you got any suggestions of places to visit?

text

[melodramagic]

maybe montana? lots of mountains and meadows
it's supposed to be peaceful

text

[devoutish]

Fucking hell, Montana? That's clear across the country, isn't it?

[Alfie is not very up on American geography.]

[melodramagic]

I'm guessing you don't want to go anywhere far

[ Oops. ]

but that depends... where are you?

text

[devoutish]

Maurtia Falls. Pennsylvania.

[melodramagic]

I think there's some fancy cabin resort in lancaster somewhere there?
I've never been out of greendale so I've only heard or read about places

text

[devoutish]

And where is Greendale?

I would hardly recommend her were she a fool. But to answer your unstated question, she can be fiercely and unquestionably loyal, often at great personal risk. Of course, there's more to say but I'm hardly being paid for my time, am I?

We're going to have one at Aegis Force HQ, but otherwise, I plan on staying in. It'll be nice to have some downtime, I think.

I noticed nobody new seems to have arrived this month, though. That's odd.

[devoutish]

You're sure she's not paying you to talk her up?

[devoutish]

Are you sure? Perhaps they just haven't come on the network.

[devoutish]

Ah, New York. Near the city?

[The question that's the bane of every upstater.]

text

[melodramagic]

I'd say a few hours drive?
I've never been though so don't quote me on it

[restingstitchface]

Hardly! I take being paid to speak someone up as an insult.

text

[devoutish]

Now, that's a shame. I've heard good things. If only it were a Porter city, eh?

[devoutish]

Good man. Never trust a spokesman.

text

[melodramagic]

it would be nice but I'm in no rush right now
but you haven't been to the city yet?

text

[devoutish]

Never in my life, not now and not in 1922.

[restingstitchface]

Never did. It's why I've lived so long. A fact you might understand.

new york is a pretty busy place
if you hate black friday and christmas shoppers it's kind of always hectic over there

[devoutish]

You're not one of those immortals, are you?
