More than a month in, and all the private eye work I could find that actually pays is digging up dirt on cheating couples, which is the biggest parallel I can draw from my own world. Good to know some things never change, huh?

I remember someone was asking about singing no the bar, so after doing some inquiries I've been granted permission to organize something of an Open Mic night every now and then, but first I need some 4-5 people/bands willing to get up to the stage (which I'm building, because fuck hiring people) and embarrass themselves. Or not.

So if you play music and you know it, and you want even more publicity, answer here. We'll figure something out.

Where do you operate usually?

[akas]

All over, really.

[boobwindow]

And nothing's come up? That doesn't seem right.

[akas]

Nothing's come up to me, and I don't know the local private eyes enough to say nothing's coming up at all.

Then again, the're all probably hard boiled, heavy drinking gun totting imbeciles, if there's any sense of continuity in this place.

[boobwindow]

That doesn't sound very professional to me.
But I've never really met a private eye. I don't think they're like the ones in the movies.

[akas]

I'm just bracing for the worst stereotype if the time period this place seems to emulate.

That said, I could be wrong.

[boobwindow]

Surprisingly not so much of that. I think it's mostly the aesthetic they like.

[akas]

And the choice of war target, apparently.

[boobwindow]

Not so much a choice, I think.
For whatever reason the Cold War never ended when we first arrived here.

[ And it's only escalated as a result of them being here... ]

[akas]

You say potato...

Is there any better explanation than "for whatever reason" though?

[boobwindow]

I'm sure you know the history of the Soviet Union's fall.
It doesn't appear those things happened here for it to dissolve.

[akas]

You're so going to make me crack open a history book.

[boobwindow]

Google works, too.

[akas]

You can't trust nerds on the Internet.

[boobwindow]

I take it history was not your favorite subject in school.

[akas]

School wasn't my favorite subject in school.
