EMPLOYMENT AMA
Preferred Alias: Farraige.

Worst Job(s) Held: Cleaning chemistry labs after school. At least I could cheat a little to make the work easier, but you'd think some of these clowns never handled staining liquids in their lives. Least of all the gum everywhere.
Best Job(s) Held: Being a wizard. I got to ride on water, see the world, maybe play the hero once in awhile. It was all pretty fun, given the circumstances I had to work with.
Fantasy Job(s): Marine Biologist. I've loved the ocean for as long as I can remember. It's always fascinated me and I always feel most comfortable near the water. Honestly I'd probably lose myself in some research project given the chance. And hey, I can manipulate water for some deep diving. Who better to see something like the Mariana Trench than yours truly?

Current Job(s): Nothing, really. I guess I could put my magic to good use here somewhere. Or if you want the comedic stylings of some puns, though some of you out there might find those a bit too pun-ishing.

Ask Me Anything!

i'm the same. i'm supposed to be now, but who honestly tests that???

what for?

[cantseame]

Someone with a more pragmatic approach to life than us.

To defend myself. Met plenty of megalomaniacs in my line of work.

[vexy]

megalomaniacs made of metal?

honestly, my previous line of work was nothing but megalomaniacs, but they were my bosses.

[cantseame]

I mean one of them knew how to control and summon golems. He just ended up using scrap and old parts to try making robots. Well, he played them off as robots when it was really magic that gave them life.

What was your old job like?

[vexy]

well well well. sounds like quite an interesting life.

glorified errand boy. lots of legwork, lots of kissing up, lots of pains in my arse.

[ He was such a liar, but he was so good at it because he mixed in a lot of truths with the lies. ]

fae politics are brutal, there is so much paperwork involved that i now feel sick whenever i have to fill out a form. i ran away from there to a paradise, which was then destroyed and replaced by this lovely hellhole

[cantseame]

Some wizards I had spoken to did have dealings with the Fae in the past. I was told about them, but I never got to meet one myself.

Something tells me I was better off with my assignment. If you don't mind my asking, where did you go?

[vexy]

wanna meet one now? we can have a beer

it was a place called Eudio and the currency there was "intimacy". as you can imagine, it was incredible.

[cantseame]

After all that's happened, I could do with a few.

You were in Eudio too? Interesting. I wonder if all of us who arrived here have some sort of common thread?

[vexy]

lucky you, i have a few

yeah i was! my friends were too, but i've met others who have no bloody clue what i'm on about when i mention it. it's a mixed bag i suppose.

[cantseame]

Given my own experiences, I'm not so keen to believe that there's some nebulous reason we're all here. I think it's all connected somehow, but I'm not sure in what way. Not yet anyway.
