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.

Ah, New York. Near the city?

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

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

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

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

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

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

That's all right. I'm used to the general hectic energy of a city.

[This post is 100% grumpiness about longer lines than usual at the grocery store.]

if you could pick your ideal place to live where would it be?

There's no such thing. Every place has got its downsides.

But I would like to go back to the London of my own time.

fair
you've never been back at all? I hear port outs happen enough here

Despite my best efforts, I have never been so lucky.

that's strange
do you think there's a reason for that?

I don't know. We've got no reason to think it's anything but random.

[But no strong proof that it is random, either.]

I guess I've got a lot still to read up on

[ She has Kaneki's notes, but hasn't finished going through them. ]

anyway like I said
if you need an extra person to help you out I'm available
it's kind of hard to say no to the extra money

Would you complain about $35?

not really

Then I will certainly keep you in mind, Miss Spellman. I do sometimes need things fetched when I'm feeling ill.

sounds good

Do you also walk dogs by any chance?

never done that but that doesn't sound too complex?
how many dogs and what kind? also do they get agitated if they can smell cats?

2 medium sized ones, and I don't know. They haven't been around cats much.

they're friendly at least?

Very much so. Yes. I've got a kid who walks them sometimes, when I'm not up to it, but he's young. Can't always call a ten year old over at all hours.

I don't mind at all
plus it might help to get out and explore a little more that way too

That it does. Good exercise too, walking.
