[ Let's pretend this was back-dated to like noon ok. The NV is positioned on a shelf, displaying a rather curious-looking interior. Ino's standing with a hand on her hip, donned in her usual purple attire complete with her insanely long ponytail, a smile on her face. ]

Can you believe that somebody just let this place rot? The flowers were brown and wilted when I got here and I'm pretty sure I smelled some rats in the back room. It was gross. [ Her nose winkles slightly. ] And of course the wallpaper will be changed soon, too.

But it's amazing what a girl can get done over the span of two days! Thankfully there were already a lot of seeds in the backroom to plant, and most of the flowers only needed a little help to get back to their prime. So guess what that means? [ Her shoulders shift back and forth and her grin grows. ]

That's right! Yamanaka Flower Shop - formerly known as Siren's Flowers, but this has a nicer ring to it - is now open for business! You can't miss it, really, it's right on the corner of sectors 4, 7, and 2. Orders can be given to me in person or over the NV. Here's the list of prices. [ She holds up this for a few seconds. ]

We have everything from azaleas to primroses, and in a few weeks we'll even have some of the more unique flowers from the greenhouse, like blue roses and chocolate cosmos.

Oh, and if anybody's looking for a job, talk to me. I'm sure I can find something for you to do. A woman's work is never done, as they say.

[ She leans forward to turn off the feed, feeling rather smug and self-satisfied. ]

That's too bad... there was a huge field of them back home.

But hey, you mentioned something about having jobs open...?

[blondejokes]

That's right! What position are you hoping to get? [ TBH he'd get his first choice but yknow ]

[replicamodel]

Oh, huh, anything is fine! Whatever you'd need the most help with, I guess.

I'm pretty strong, if you need someone to lift and carry things.

Hm... I can think of a few things! [ First employee fuck yeah. ]

I'm going to have to ask you a few questions before I can hire you, though. [ Is she going to wait for a response? Noope. ]

What is your full name? [ She scrambles around for a clipboard, writing on the back of an old piece of paper. ]

Well, Luke, I'm happy to announce that you're now officially an employee here. Come in tomorrow morning and I'll give you a quick orientation.

[replicamodel]

All right! Thanks a lot.

Oh wait, what do I call you?

[blondejokes]

Ino is fine. Or boss, whichever one you want.

And as for any tips that we get by the end of a month, we'll just split it between us.

[replicamodel]

Heh, okay. Nice to meet you then, Ino.

Sounds good to me. The only money I've ever earned myself was through fighting monsters. So I'll just follow your lead.

[blondejokes]

Don't be fooled, dealing with customers isn't always safer than dealing with those monsters.

[replicamodel]

Are they that nasty?

[blondejokes]

Sometimes.

[replicamodel]

Eeesh.

Well, I'll still do what I can. And try and keep my temper in check.

[blondejokes]

How bad is your temper? [ Like she's one to talk ]

[replicamodel]

It gets me into trouble sometimes, but I've really toned it down lately.

Don't worry though, I won't beat anyone up.

[blondejokes]

Not even if they threaten the life of your manager?

[replicamodel]

In that case, I'd definitely beat them up.

[blondejokes]

Good answer!

[replicamodel]

[Winks.]

Thanks, boss.

[blondejokes]

[ She giggles. ]

I'll see you bright and early tomorrow morning, Luke.

[replicamodel]

Sure thing. See you then!
