[he reaches out and shakes their hand]

By the end of that hour people are going to think something weird happened to make me think I actually work here, don't you worry.

[guestservices]

[ they shake his hand! rupert may find that aquila's hand is cold even through their gloves, but they have a very strong handshake. ]

That's what I love to hear. [ hehe ]

[agleam]

[he looks surprised, but it doesn't throw him for long.]

I'll come talk to you after tomorrow morning, then! Oh, but - when you say I should pretend to work here, do you mean, like... I'm supposed to pretend to be a new employee that doesn't know any of them, or am I just being myself and pretending I started working here for nebulous reasons?

[guestservices]

[ they weigh their options for a moment. ]

...Go with whatever feels right. I'll take either. Maybe do both!

[agleam]

[with a tilt of his head]

Both? You mean, in different conversations?

[guestservices]

I mean, that's what I'd do.





[ aquila, ]

[agleam]

[okay, he laughs at that]

What, why?

[guestservices]

Because it's funny.

[agleam]

Maybe, but some people might get actually freaked out if I pretend to not remember them... I don't want to start a whole thing. I'll probably go with the second option.

[guestservices]

[ they nod! ]

Suit yourself.

[agleam]

Can I say you guys asked for help, or is that too close to the idea that you asked me to do this for a different reason?

[guestservices]

[ they tilt their head, thinking. ]

Mmmm.... don't say that. Too close.

[agleam]

Okay. I just decided to help, got it.
