Daves pov:
the maid outfits actually kinda cool
in an ironic way of course
the worst part of the job is really only the pay
if im gonna walk around in a maid outfit in front of my peers you better give me 100 dollars at least
minimum wage is way too little for this shit, but its worth it if it means i can spend more time with karkat
my first day of work is in 3 days and if im being honest im a little excited
sure, itll be embarassing as hell letting egdip see me in a skirt, but this is irony in its peak form
im still a bit surprised rose convinced kanaya to buy that resturaunt, none the less make it a maid cafe~~~~~~
"I just think it'll work out. Kanaya is good with people and managing time, I'm not awful at cooking, and we can always hire more people."
"i mean yeah i guess but whats the point"
"I've been trying to get some more money lately, I think it's important to fuel my hobbies, but I've found that the higher quality yarn and knitting equipment tends to be more expensive." rose told me
"i bet you she wont do it"
"...Really, Bet what?"
"uhhh" rose had been trying to start bets with me alot lately, im not really sure why "if you somehow convince kanaya to buy the building next to trollbucks by the end of this month, ill work there for you guys"
"Hmm, deal!" she looked a bit too excitedjust what the hell is she scheming
~~~~~~
i guess i finally found out what she was planning after all
when rose told me that kanaya had bought the building that had been for sale she let me know soon enough
"hell no."
"A deal is a deal dave, and you lost. Therefore, you have to work here."
"fuck no rose, you didnt tell me itd be a fucking maid cafe"
"You never asked what kind of resturaunt we were planning on starting, I didn't think it was important." she folded her hands on the table, next to the maid uniform that laid in front of me
there were even cat ears
hell no
"rose""Dave."
"rose why"
"Why what? Why the cat ears? Why a maid cafe? Why you? There are alot of questions you could be asking right now."
"why"
"You start monday," she stated, ignoring my previous question, "and you have to stay for at least one day, after that if you want to quit thats fine, it's up to you.
"I think we got the right size but just to be sure you should try it on, and make sure not to tear it Kanaya worked hard on those."
"...do you mean right now?"
"Dave we're in a trollbucks, I don't think that's a great idea."
oh right we were in public werent we
right next to the building they bought too
right next to my new job
after we left the trollbucks rose took me next door to check the place out
it looked like they got it way before and had only told me now
what a douche
we met kanaya inside and she gave me a little more of an explanation
