[Video] Week 41 - Thursday Afternoon

[Locked to Pepper Potts]

[The video clicks on to show a certain redhead, standing against a storefront in town, looking a little frustrated but pleasant as always.]

Good evening, Miss Potts! I'm sure you're wondering why on Earth- or rather Verdana- I'm contacting you. Well I recall you mentioned something about being a rather high ranked business exec back home. In my experience people like you have trouble turning off the "work" switch. Which means I know for a fact you've done a little scouting here, even if it's subconsciously.

I've been trying to get permits and such to get a business off the ground and find myself in need of a partner of sorts. I was wondering if you had any suggestions. Now I'd say we could meet for tea or coffee or something and discuss it but's that's exactly the issue, isn't it? There's nowhere to get a good cup of tea brewed in this city.

I'm not much use on the "getting people home" front either.

[He nods understandingly. They're in the same boat there. He'd proven that with his binding attempt last week. Ah well.]

Text me the directions and I'll be over there shortly. I'm pretty good with renovations so I might be able to help you out on that front too.

[He chuckled, shifting the video down to Oberon who was sitting beside him, tail thumping loudly against the wall behind him and when he was sure he was on the screen he gave a single excited bark for Pepper's benefit.]

You're going to inflate his ego, Miss Potts.

[Atticus' communicator soon pings with the delivery of a map to Pepper's building relative to the rest of Poseidon. She dimples at spotting the dog.]

Good. If his ego's big enough, he might not notice how transparent the bribe attempts I'm planning on are. Is leftover bacon OK to share with him? I know some wolfhounds can have finicky diets...

[Are they going to chat about Oberon while he walks back to his place to collect some teas? Sounds like a plan to him. And Oberon is definitely okay with this.]

Bacon is always accepted. Sausages are his favorite, though. Especially chicken apple sausages.

[Pepper laughs at that, quietly delighted at the mental image of Wolfhound vs. Sausages.]

I'll bear that in mind when I manage to lure in a chef for the place. Chicken apple sausages sound like they'd go well in a breakfast wrap, if we do enough business to try and attract the morning crowd. Oberon can just take the Atkins-approved version of one.

[Atticus laughed but nodded.]

They would, indeed, but... I have some thoughts on... well... Just give me a few minutes and I'll be over there and we can discuss target clientele.

[And with that he cuts the feed so he can jog back to his place, collect supplies, and grab his bike to make the trip back across the city faster.]
