4 unfortunate souls

Hello!

So,
I need a job!
(I know this isn't the best time or venue for something like this, and I'm very sorry; if I thought I had any other options, I'd take them.) (But if you do happen to know of other options I have, I'd be grateful to hear about them)

I need to be upfront that there are some pretty severe limitations on what I can actually do, which are not covered by the ADA and are the reason I wasn't able to continue in my last job...
Basically, I can't be seen, heard, or directly sensed in any way by regular people who aren't Retrospec users. So anything that's customer facing or that requires any contact beyond e-mail or something with, like... anyone... is not... super... possible? lol

But obviously there are still a lot of things I can do! And I'm not picky at all. If you want me to do something, and I'm capable of doing it, I will. With almost no exceptions. (That is, I don't really have any pride or dignity, but I do have some scruples. So any crimes you want me to commit will have to be victimless!) (In case any police officers are reading this, that part was a joke)

Qualifications

• Several years' experience as a barista
  • Tea brewing (taught by a true expert!)
  • Proficiency with latte art
• CPR and first aid certification
• Volunteer experience in a hospital setting
• Numerous vague memories of serving as a housekeeper, cook, and personal assistant in an alternate timeline
• Numerous memories of serving as a shinigami, field surgeon, and all-purpose drudge in a past lifetime

Education (currently on hold)

• On track to graduate cum laude with B.A. in sociology from Recollé University (11 credits short)
• Acceptance to Recollé University School of Medicine (deferred)

Special skills/abilities

• Healing magic
• Limited floating
• Phasing through solid objects
• Sword can perform exorcisms (?)

I'm open to full-time, part-time, temporary, one-time gigs... or honestly anything at all!

I look forward to hearing from you!
Thanks for your time.

[ yoga on pause. ahmi turns from her seating and lights up with a smile, standing and walking over to properly greet him. she tol, she breasts, she greying but she beautiful. yes, her spiritual awareness was grand, and there probably! wouldn’t be a problem in seeing him.

(there wouldn’t be a problem in seeing him in the long run). ]

Jamie Doh! [ she extends her hand to shake, if he could, and if he couldn’t, well! who needs those! ] Please take a seat. Your skin is beautiful.

[ she will. never let that go. ]

Do you drink tea, still?

[floret]

[ goddamn that is one statuesque babe with an amazingly vibrant presence...
jamie feels himself instantly become shorter, uglier, and less opaque ]

Ms. Okelani.
It's so nice to meet you in person...

[ he CAN shake her hand, and DOES! his hand is solid enough in hers, though it might feel a bit low-res.
also he experiences a half-second of mortal terror when she brings up his skin seemingly out of nowhere, but then he Remembers, thank god ]

In my defense, I think I technically said that it was like a skin condition.
And I do drink tea.

[brushy]

[ hand shaking is a go, and ahmi does it ecstatically. after wards, she claps her hands close to her chest, and glides over to the tea in preparation. ]

Please take a seat, then! And I will tell you something I tell all my young friends— [ when she returns, her dress swishing with her ankles, there comes the tea, and two cups hooked to her fingers. ]

If we will work together, even, [ pouring tea now, as well as taking a seat in front of him. ] I’d prefer you call me Ahmi.

[ and she leans in, with her voice in a low whisper. ]

“Miss” sounds too young for me.

[ when their handshake is done, he lightly wraps his right hand in his left.... cherishing the remnant of her warmth and enthusiasm...

and he watches and listens with rapt attention as she does and says things. (this must be what they call a magnetic personality!)

then he laughs, and both the sound and sensation of actually laughing, genuinely and IRL, takes him by surprise. he quickly looks down, and conveniently, that's exactly where the tea is; its shimmering, steamy surface is a perfect place for his gaze to rest. ]

Ahmi, then.
Thank you.

Do you have a lot of them? Young friends.

[brushy]

[ you're going to have so much more warmth and enthusiasm with her around little one :') ]

I like to consider such. [ anyone she enjoys talking to , or seeing, no matter the age— friend. ] Now, if they also consider me a friend, or simply a crazy old woman, or Auntie, [ she folds her hands onto her lap. ] I'm happy, all the same.

So! There's something I'd like to tell you first, Jamie, of something I had been thinking. Can you still communicate with those off the app?

[floret]

[ :''''') ]

...I can. A little.
I mean, I can text them or send e-mails, or write notes.
I guess I could also do stuff like knocking twice for yes or moving a ouija board pointer around.

[brushy]

[ ahmi hums. mm. ]

If I were to ever be removed from the app, if you tell me the truth, I'll believe you regardless, and I know I'd do my best to commune. I was, am, very spiritual.

[ that's point one. now, point two. ]

I'd like to train you, Jamie. You do not always need clients to see you to apply energetic therapy, and you have grand potential. You will have a salary, of course, and you will be able to grow and live with what you are. All you need are the correct utilities. What do you think?

[floret]

You would?
...I do?

I mean... it sounds wonderful, of course. And I promise I'd work really hard!
