Despite the rather troubling events happening, business, apparently, marches on. In this case, mine. I've discovered that I'm it a bit of a bind; my success, while to be expected, has had three, well mostly two, rather unfortunate results.

Firstly, I have more than enough commissions to keep me busy for the next several months, and yet I'd like to take on more, expand my repertoire, and that necessitates hiring more help to assist in production which I don't currently have enough currency to hire.

Secondly, I need more space, even if I don't expand, my current workshop is getting too small for my purposes. Again, my lack of currency is an obstacle.

So despite my inclination to remain sole owner, I'm looking for investors who, for a respectable investment, will be given a percentage of ownership in my works.

If you happen to have any interest, please let me know, I have some ideas for my eventual expansion that I would be more than happy to share with you.

If I don't do it, who will? Nobody's going to treat me as good as I do myself.

Very true, I suppose.

Of course. When convenient to your schedule and mine, perhaps we can arrange a meeting in-person. [Because he kind of dislikes using these devices for everything...]

I am, and that can be done.

Though I seem to be going about things backwards lately. My apologies. I'm Peter, present owner and manager of The Blue Light. I imagine the least we can do is invest in someone else. No one knows how long we'll be here and some network of support makes things that much...less difficult, really.

And I'm Cinna, and happy to meet a fellow business owner. I'd be willing to meet just about any time you like. I have some plans we could discuss, so you know how your invested money would be spent.

And we can talk about your lady-friend's dress as well.

Pleasure then, Cinna. Barring a curse of some sort, would Monday work for you? If there's a time that is preferable - morning, afternoon, evening - I can likely accommodate. Mostly the bar runs itself on good days.

That would be much appreciated. It's for my sister, as it happens.

[A dress in no way replaces what is now gone but he knows Susan has a soft spot for lovely things, and Cinna comes at great recommendation, so.]

I think I'll be able to manage that.

I think that can be arranged. If you'd like to come to my current shop, I can show you fully what you'd be supporting.

Ahhh, family. Very lovely indeed.

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Perfect. We'll discuss payment when you arrive then?

That would be just fine. If you would just forward directions to this Network ID, I'd appreciate it.

In our own world, well one of them, she is Queen. I can't quite give her that back, but--- I'm very fortunate.

[sings4dragons.livejournal.com]

Of course.

Re: private ||

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Of course. [Directions attached.]

Then we should make sure she has something truly unique.

voice

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I'll see you then.

I... don't mean to intrude, but I was wondering how Rue was doing. I noticed her entries on the network and know she's dealing with the ongoing memory loss that seems to be running rampant in the City.

private voice

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

She's... scared, frankly, I would be, too. And while we all are from the same world, she's from a different part of it so it's... difficult for us to tell how bad the loss is getting. We don't have a frame of reference so to speak.

private voice

[sings4dragons.livejournal.com]

Being scared is completely understandable. I know I am.

I live and work with Myrnin, and am helping him to try and figure out what's going on.

If anything else happens to her, please feel free to let me know. I know he can be a bit.. odd at times and I'm sure she doesn't need anything traumatic happening to her in dealing with this, but please remember I'm here to help. We both are.

If it comes down to it, I can make sure he's on his very best behavior if she has to speak to him.

private voice

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I can see if she wants to speak to anyone. We're just doing out best to keep her calm right now.

private voice

[sings4dragons.livejournal.com]

No one wants her upset. I can promise you that.

... does she frequent your shop?

private voice

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

Occasionally. Sometimes I let her help sort fabrics and the like.

private voice

[sings4dragons.livejournal.com]

Hmm... I might come visit soon and bring one of my fire lizards with me. He loves everyone and I think rue might enjoy meeting one of them. Maybe it'll help give her something positive for a day until we get this figured out.

private voice

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I think she'd like that a great deal. She lives with Finnick, across the hall from me, but so long as you called ahead, even if he's not there, I can take an afternoon off.

private voice

[sings4dragons.livejournal.com]

If I know my little Lazybones, he can charm the mood out of anyone.

private voice

[threadthefire.livejournal.com]

I certainly hope so.

It's good to see that there are others with a good sense in fashion. Pardon my intrusion, but if you wish, I can be persuaded to go half. That is if you decide that his work is befitting?

[idmakeitaweek.livejournal.com]

I had financed a designer once before. She left the City. It's something I'd be open to doing again.

Of course you're not as pretty as she was but that's forgivable.

You are...?

Very clever to create a way for us to publicly meet, Aion.
