[OPEN] The Way of a Woman

Who: Ryuko and you!
When: November 12th (ic)
Where: Shopping District; Ceres Juice booth
What: Shenanigans at the workplace. Ryuko is told to be more social with the customers.
Rating/Warning: None.


a.
[ It's been about a week since Ryuko started the Ceres Juice gig. Management has said that she had the right "look" as an attendant, but her attitude could use some improvement. The trick to attracting customers is to always SMILE and make them feel SPECIAL. Of course, Ryuko would have none of that, as those sound more like job requirements for the Pleasure District... however, a girl needs to make ends meet somehow. How else is she going to buy that motorcycle?

With a clearly forced smile, Ryuko greets any patron that approaches the counter. ]


Welcome to Ceres Juice~! Where we do the hard juice, so you don't have to! ( What the hell does that even mean? ) ...Uh. What will it be today~?


b.
[ Sometime later, in an hour when the Shopping District is less busy, Ryuko can be seen neglecting her duty and trying to catch some quick power naps at the counter. Senketsu, her talking uniform that only Ryuko can hear, is trying to keep her from falling asleep. He tells her that if she's having trouble staying awake, then she shouldn't stay up so late the night before. ]

Hnngh... gimme a break, Senketsu... it ain't like anyone's gonna see us...

[ To anyone who's oblivious about Senketsu, she looks like a crazy person just talking to her inanimate clothes. ]


c.
[ Hooray, it's lunch break!! Now she can really slack off and not get in trouble by anyone. Her work ethics could use some brushing up, however, as she's sitting with her bum on the counter and back turned towards any customers. With a delicious McCeres Burger in hands, she's not letting anyone ruin her 30 minutes of paradise. ]

Go away. [ She takes another mouthful. ] Busy.


d.
[ Feel free to make up your own prompt, whether as a co-worker or just bumping into her on her way home or whatever. ]

[She does hum in thought over the question.]

Not necessarily, but it is important to lend an ear when in need. Instructors should do more than just put knowledge into supple, and sometimes empty, minds. There's no pressure, of course~!
redcinemareel: (Grell: oh well)

[She nods, because that was definitely a concern for her, as well. What about her crew, or the previous world she was in, or even her own world?]

We all have our priorities, and most of us share the same ones. I'm of the mind that all work and no play makes me want to strangle someone.
redcinemareel: (Grell: ...wha?)

You don't even know what I do for fun! [Grell pouts a little, taking out her device.]

How much is that?
redcinemareel: (Grell: green eyes)

[Grell didn't expect to get a free drink. What a great day!

With a smile, she puts away her device and takes the juice, noting the name on the cup. Again with sensei? She really had to find out what it meant.]

Better late than never. Thank you. [Before she walks away, she takes a sip to test for quality. Alright, freshly squeezed and no pulp! Grell gives Ryuko a wave as she turns to walk back to the academy. One more class, then to her other job.]
