Jobs, or something close to [active]

[limitbreakpilot.livejournal.com]

Character(s): Cid and Natalia
Content: A job offer, or something suitably close to it
Setting: Cid's Shop
Time: It's hard to tell, when there isn't a sun
Warnings: Cid

A job. He'd offered a stranger a job. Hell, he'd done a good enough job running the place by himself. And okay, so maybe he didn't know what half the things in the place were, despite having had plenty of time to figure it out. But still, he was doing an okay job by and large. Mostly.

But what was said was said and damned if he was going to back out now. He had the easy part of it anyway: wait until this person (whose name he'd never bothered to ask) showed up to talk to him. And as per standard Cid operating waiting procedures, that meant working more on his constant, ongoing projects that he kept in the back room. Sooner or later he'd manage something that could fly. Or end up back home. But for now, he would wait.

Even with the map it took a bit of stumbling for Natalia to find her way to Cid's shop, and like Cid, it was only when she was in front of his store did she realize that she never even asked his name. Taking a deep breath, though, this was her first step in becoming an independent woman instead of a spoiled princess who was waited on day and night. Entering the store, she saw it was lightly illuminated after she closed the door, and made her way to where Cid was, giving him a bow. "Would you be the gentleman I was speaking with on the message board, sir?"
