The OC Job Fair

Posted 6 years, 2 months ago (Edited 5 months, 12 days ago) by Dag Dag hedgemaze

Does your OC need a job? Good news, we're hiring!

In this game, the first person will post IC as a character who is looking to hire someone to do a job. Maybe they're looking for someone to help out at the business they own or work for, someone to join their band, a supervillain's sidekick, a maid or personal chef? Maybe they're just looking to hire someone to babysit, mow their lawn, do their taxes, or hide a body. You know, normal things. The sky's the limit; you can have your OC look to hire anyone for any reason whatsoever.

The next person will answer the interviewer IC, explaining why they're the OC for the job, and then describe the job they need someone to do. Sound simple enough?

Rules:

  • You are NOT ALLOWED to skip anyone in this thread. If you cannot see the post above you because the poster or you have blocked each other, wait for another person to comment before replying to the thread. Feel free to bump the thread to encourage others to participate!
  • Let two people post before going again, and try to vary the characters you post here.
  • Be nice and have fun!   

I'll start with this guy. "I have a problem with a giant robot menacing the TV studio I work at, so I need to hire some... kind of security to deal with this guy. Tell me why you're the person for this job."


All my forum games and threads

Runa ChickieDee

Runa's face immediately lights up at the prospect of treasure. "Oh, of course I'd love to help you, dear! I could always hide it where my stash is hidden; no one's ever found that of course~" She lets out a light laugh, waving her hand. "Just joking of course, dear~ As long as you keep good on your promise of reward, and you can help lead me where you want it, I'm sure that founds hands will be better than two~"


"Oh, how I've been wanting to expand my store's reach for a while now. I know the market for my wares is good where I am currently, but I have no idea what it's like it more...human populated areas. I really want to test out the waters before proceeding, so I need someone who's a good sales-person to take a few small items to sell. I'll even let you keep the profits as long as you report them back to me~ Oh, and don't worry about the items being dangerous or anything. I've only had one or two incidents of accidental cursing happen~!"

allow me to help you human

everyone loves me, whether they be man or beast


i need someone to feed me grapes while i bask in the sunlight

Nugget Mashter-Potato

Nugget looks at Shiva, he looks scared as he throws a grape at Shiva, managing to land it in the dragon's eye as he runs away.


Nugget walks into your respective area and, through the magic of charades, tells you that the local pirate-themed festival has scared him a lot. He would like somewhere to stay until the pirates disappear. He can't play you with anything material, but he'll be really grateful if you helped him.

AlleycatIrony

You stared at this creature with a sparkle in your eye.You had no idea what he was or what he was saying (despite his attempts to communicate with you), but you had a feeling that he was feeling frightened. You give a big grin and try to direct the golem in the direction of your cave - where it was safe, warm, and full of friends that could make him feel comfortable.

Nodding towards a large pile of different sized rocks, you let out a soft 'gwoooh'. In heatran-speak, you were asking if someone was willing to help you sort them all out into piles depending on their size and shape.

Rena Soul-Heart

"Yeah, I can help. My Pokemon can help too if I can't lift certain ones." The blonde grinned, "And I promise not to catch you. I may be a trainer, but I don't capture legends unless they want me to."

---

" So, uh my dad's murder has been a cold case for a while now. Could somebody please help me out with trying to find more evidence? ".

The girl then frowned. "I can pay you in lots of Pokédollars, but if you're not from my world, it's gonna be kinda useless if you try and spend it somewhere else."


Jey Walker PicklePantry

"Ho ho ho! Save all your money, I'll do it for free! I'd be more than happy to help you find closure."


"I'm in need of a babysitter! My daughter is busy with her job and I myself am gone very long hours. I also can't help but have this feeling that I'll need one on call. My grandchildren are very sweet, just a little energetic. I suppose that's my fault for always giving them sugar, ho ho!"

Stuckey hedgemaze

"Hey, kid," Stuckey drawls out, eyeing the teenager with amusement. "I can sell you something that'll help with that. All-natural remedy, of course."


He pushes his hands into his pockets and turns to face the next person with a grin probably meant to look less sharklike than it does. "Speaking of, I could use some help picking up some goods from an associate. If anyone's got a car and doesn't ask too many questions, I'll pay you for your trouble."

Smiley PicklePantry

"Help, help, help. You need some help? :)" He looked up at Stuckey, admiring his smile. "Okay! :) I can help you. Because that's what friends do, right? :) And friends make each other happy, right? :) It won't take long to get a car. :) I think this nice old lady wanted me to use her car when I visited her. :) It might still be there. :) And don't worry about paying me. Your smile is all I need. :)"


"Ah, I'm glad you're here. :)"
There was no face to match the voice to, but instead the slightly opened crack of a house's front door. It was cracked enough for the voice to come out of but not enough for anything to be visible.
"It seems I've run out of paper bags. :) How embarrassing. :) The family here doesn't have any either. :) Would you mind picking some up from the store? :) A 7/11, if you would. Those are much comfier. :)"

Angelo Summers bulgariansumo

Angelo slightly lifts up the box he hides under. "Um, h-hi, I couldn't help but overhear your request...? Wait, no, sorry!" He ducks back under the box, convinced that he scared the stranger. Moments later, he lifts up the box again. "Maybe I can-- I-I think I might be able to set you up with someone who can do that... if that's okay. No, wait, I shouldn't!" He ducks back under the box, thinking over the moral quandary he finds himself in. That person wanted to hurt someone! He can't help them with that... but it would be rude to not deliver on his offer. He lifts the box again. "S-sorry about that. I can get you in touch with someone who can change records. They helped me out once. You might wanna have some money on you, though..."

Angelo can only hope whoever the target is deserves it.


"Ahhh, this is gonna sound weird, but is there anyone who can help me with muscle training? I-I was gonna ask someone on my ship, but I didn't wanna bother them, but, oh gosh, now I'm probably bothering somebody else, aren't I? 

Vossen (Ice!Vossen AU) Mashter-Potato

"Vossen can help you, with time, work and dedication, anyone can get strong, and Vossen is very patient. Just remember, endurance training is more important then sheer strength in a working environment. Vossen trusts that you will tell Vossen if you have other problems or need help with other matters."


"Vossen needs some help. Vossen is trying out some new drinks and foods for the cafe. Please come over and Vossen will feed you with items that might be tasty, but might not taste nice, since Vossen can not guarantee you will like them, since it's all about your opinion."

Sandra MotherRat

"Food! I love eating, this sounds perfect? What types of food? Exotic food? All foods?" Sandra's face lights up at the prospect of being payed to eat.


"Well I need some help finding some flowers for my girlfriend, I think she deserves a random present, if I could find anyone good with plants and making them into bouquets that would be the best! 

Jaehyuk Cha AlleycatIrony

You nod your head enthusiastically. Plants are your forte and you would give anything for this opportunity to put your plant and flower knowledge to the test. You were very excited, and immediately took Sandra by the hand in order to show her all the kinds of flowers you had on offer from your greenhouse and garden for her to choose from.

You pause and fiddle around with your hands nervously, not looking up at the one you're speaking to.
