Main Room

Oh, yeah. Gotta pay the bills through college somehow.

...Well... I'll probably have to find some other way to pay the bills considering...

What about you? You have a...

(short, thin... she's either an early-mid teenager or an adult with poor height genes, one could see her either way)

Oh, uh... I guess I'm a Pokémon Trainer? And an intern. Not really real jobs either way, but...

So like a not-animal trainer... What do you do at your internship? Those are what're really important to get out in the job market after all.

...Research. Data gathering.

No.

(very blunt there)

...Ahem. I mean, it doesn't have anything to do with the, er... the Delibirds and the Combees, if that's what you're asking.

-Raised eyebrows-

That's... quite a leap from what I was thinking, to be honest. I was thinking of, like, dirty jobs.

-Pause-

Like. Sewer and waste management! Or something!

...Oh! Yeah, that makes sense. I mean... I can see why people would be embarrassed about that.

(fidgets again)

Though, yeah. It's not a dirty job or anything, but... I'd rather not talk about it. If that's all right with you.

Samantha walks into the main room, taking note of the ballot box at the center. She reads over the form next to it and chuckles slightly to herself, snapping a quick picture and sending it in a text to Akane.

Hey sis, you want a part of this? I can grab one for you too.

She begins filling out one of the forms, not yet paying too much attention to the other people present.

Y'know... where I'm from, Pokemon exists in the form of cartoons and a game series. I'm a big fan of them, to be honest. (Just tryin' to break the silence...)

-A young goat is busy dusting the main room, making sure that every layer of dust and cobweb is removed without any mercy-

Just how did this place survive without a proper servant?

-Clears his throat-

Really? Huh...

-Starts thinking-

...It still doesn't come to mind, even like that. But who knows? Maybe it just never took off in my world.

-He glances over at Sam and the goat, double taking just a little more at the latter-

Alright, I can finish this room in about 10 minutes, by then the biscuits should be ready to-

-The goat with the glowing red eyes turns around, noticing all the new faces in the main room-

Ah! New visitors!

I'm sorry for the mess, it'll be all tidied up in a moment!

-He bows courteously-

Well, there might not be a mess to your standards but I know my former masters would never tolerate something like, well, this.

-Goat motions to the perfectly normal room-

Once again, apologies.

-Slow nod, evidently weirded out-

...Weeeeell. I'd say since none of us are your former masters, I don't think scrutinizing every little detail is that necessary. Yeah?

-He looks around to see if anyone else was listening to that for support-

-Evidently more weirded out by his servitude than the fact that there's a goat butler, apparently-

-Goat returns to dusting the room-

It is no problem, I promise.

I enjoy making others happy. Besides, this place means a lot to me, too.

"I mean, kinda? Not specifically caving or ruins exploration, but the skillset is close enough," she shrugs, "plus, there's always new shit to learn. Oh, and," she turns to the goat, "no need to apologize, you're not the only one who cleans this place anyway."

Her phone buzzes in her pocket and she fishes it out, scowling slightly at the message and sending a response.

(looks back at the ballot)

I'm not really sure he'll pick all of us, though. Too many cooks spoil the soup, don't they?

-Nod nod at Goat-

Well... if you say so. If there's anything you ever want a hand with, I'm happy to help out. This is the only place with a roof for miles after all.

-Ake- ...You know, honestly, it hadn't occurred to me this was meant to be a selection. I thought it was more of a "group volunteer service" kinda thing.
