[in which the rich brat has to work for the first time in his life, probably]

Trip's sticking up flyers, apparently, as well as handing some out, advertising an odd assortment of skills, but he's also acting a bit shifty and has his hoodie up, like he doesn't want to be recognized.

"For hire.
Skills: photography, tracking, exorcism.
Prices negotiable.
"

Followed by some contact details.

Somebody has been too much of a spendthrift without regard for the future, refused to downgrade from his prior standard of accommodations (read: kept staying at expensive hotels), and hasn't made enough in winnings to support himself, so.

Larson oblivious to Trip's attempt to hide--(it was definitely the hoodie that gave him away) smiled happily. Once closer, he takes the offered flyer and began to read over it. There's a gasp from the man as he looked up to face Trip.

"Goodness, Trip are you looking to make some money?" He's making sad Growlithe eyes at the younger trainer. "If you need a place to stay at, my home is open you know! I live at the Ranch-"

"Blissey!" Larson's Blissey spoke up while patting at his tote bag where his apron had been tucked in. Larson glanced at his bag, and then to Trip as a light bulb lit up.

"Oh Blissey, you're such a genius! Trip, why don't you work at the Cafe with me? Blissey and I can always use an extra hand!"

Larson hadn't noticed he had unintentionally hurt Trip's feelings. Not yet at the very least. Instead he's beaming happy he could help Trip out in someway. He was just a young boy after all, and what would Leary think if he told him? He was sure the older trainer would demand to know where Trip is. Nodding to himself he placed a hand upon his chest with a smile.

"Then it's settled! Would you like to start today? I know we should have extra uniforms in the back--and I'm sure both Nurse Emi and Mr. Kinjo won't mind either."

"Oh! Mr. Kinjo is the cashier at the Pokemart inside the Pokemon Center. He's really nice, and he's always seen with Wallace his Oddish." Larson began to explain. "He's a hardworker!"

He's too polite to say Kinjo could be sometimes seen dozing off at work. At least his Oddish kept him on his toes.

"But we really don't leave our own sections at work until it's time to close for the night or go on break."

"Of course, the job is simple! You take a guests order and serve it to them. Don't worry, we don't have anything too elaborate over at the Pokemon Center's cafe but it's still a nice little relaxing space for trainers to come and take a load off of."

Larson glanced over to his Blissey who beamed in response.

"Blissey Blissey!"

"It sounds like Blissey is saying she wants to help you too."

He paused before giving Trip a smile.

"Gosh, a photo of me? I don't know why you'd want one but I don't mind at all! Would you like me to strike a pose or anything?"

"Ah...okay then! You can take a picture of me any time if you don't mind taking a photo back at the cafe." Larson nodded. It sounded like fun to him, and it would make a great memory for both himself and Trip. "You'll have to share my the photo later--oh, that's right. Let's head into the Pokemon Center first and we can exchange numbers and have you set up!"

Excited by having Trip along with him, he lead Trip down the familiar road to the Pokemon Center. Thankfully things were calm, and easygoing inside. Nurse Emi acknowledged their presence with a smile and a wave--and over on the Pokemart side, Kinjo was quick to hide a yawn behind his hand before waving to his coworker.

Larson gave a wave, and turned over to Trip.

"Okay Trip, I'll show you where our uniforms are at. I'm pretty sure there's something that's in your size too."

Are you sure? I suppose you wouldn't look so strange even if the shirt was a little big...

[Larson mused before entering the cafe area, and around the counter. He'll gesture for Trip to follow as he opened the door to the back.]

Now, the extra uniforms are kept...here!

[He'll pull out a box labeled "shirts" before pulling a few out. He'll then hand them to Trip.]

Go ahead and try these on! I'll wait out by the counter once you're done, okay?

[He gave a reassuring smile before heading back out to the counter space.]

[Upon seeing Trip in uniform, Larson lit up. He's clapping his hand in excitement while looking Trip over.]

Wow, you look great Trip! Very professional! I'm sure you'll do great today too! Don't worry, both Blissey and I will help you learn our menu--ah, but of course I don't expect you to learn everything today! It is your first day, and it takes a while to get used to things!

[Immediately Larson claps, delighted by the boost of confidence Trip seemed to have. He couldn't help but be happy for the younger trainer. Plus there would be more workers in the cafe! That was good enough for the barista, really.]

Wonderful! Then I'll go grab the menu so you can look over it. Ah...I think it would also be a good idea to do a taste testing too. It helps when a guest asks you about a menu item! I hope you're hungry!

Thankfully Larson doesn't mind (sorry this is late!!)

[personal profile] ulternnpc 2023-02-15 01:01 pm (UTC)(link)
[Larson blinked, before a soft chuckle left him.]

Well! We could all do a little taste testing. Blissey may be a big, but she did just eat breakfast not too long ago so I don't think she can finish everything by herself. Right, Blissey?

[Larson turned over to his partner who seemingly getting the meme beamed.]

Blissey! Bliss!
