[He managed to hide most of his relief that they wouldn't be broaching the other subjects, mostly because he had no idea what she might want to discuss when it came to his lover. It was best to let that subject lie, as he was still in the honeymoon phase of it while also expecting it to fail spectacularly at any moment.]
I do not, no. Everything has settled back to what it has been before this little mishap event, even if some of the staff have been affected and not yet returned.
This place has destabilized at an inopportune time, yes.
[He released her without a fuss and shifted in his seat to set stretch his legs out before gathering them under him so that he too could stand. There didn't seem a point or purpose to remain seated when the snack should be cleaned up and put away.]
I will be advertising for workers, especially since there are plenty of new Chosen here. I can lend you a worker or two for the café if I manage to vet worthwhile ones. Otherwise, I suggest you also advertise.
[ she frowns gently over the suggestion, not because she isn't appreciative, quite opposite, she would love to have a worker or two or three to help run her business. it's just...— ]
— But the place's not done yet. I still have to finish painting, a wall needs to be knocked down, I need more stools to install, and furniture. There's still so much to do with it. But this stupid, whacko place won't quit with its crap long enough for me to do anything.
And? Most staff at this point will do whatever you need them to. Some might even relish the opportunity.
[It wasn't as if painting and organizing required a degree. It was the kind of work people could easily be taught and even if they screwed it up, it could be rectified.]
I can send some of my people over if you do wish to get it established this month.
[Assuming the café didn't destabilize and ruin everything.]
[ the frown evades, but it quickly shines into a gratitude smile as she skates to her father again to embrace him into a warm hug. her face snugs against his shoulder once more, with a light purr singing in her throat. ]
Mmmm, thank you. When mine stops freezing, I'll send them over to help you too.

It's going to make the INX stuff way harder than it needs to be. Ugh, Guess I'm gonna have to go about this solo for a little while.
[ and that would also mean her café will be put on hold... again. ]

Date: 2024-08-10 09:01 pm (UTC)Whelp! — We better get going. You've got businesses to peek in, and I've got people to bother.
