The only thing he really said about you was that you'd know he was full of shit when he told you he hired me as his "security secretary". And that you'll want me doing more than standing around, looking pretty with a gun, which wasn't my intention. I want to do more than that.
[ He does look pretty standing around with a gun though... ]
i should tell you before it surprises you. there are blackout curtains in the office to keep out the sun jack got them when i told him i was a vampire. we will be working together, so you should know as well. i hope you will not mind that.
but you will not mind the curtains? i know it is not ideal for humans
have you worked in an office before? i had not so there were things to learn. i can show you how to use the machines and there is a gun, if you will be security?
[ i am fine with what you are too :) - Bellamy has to laugh a little at that. But Rafa has every right to say that. It's not like Bellamy isn't capable of being dangerous too. Who knows, maybe he's done worse things than Rafa as a human... ]
As long as you don't work in complete darkness.
It's my first time working in an office. I've only ever worked as a guard in training and a janitor.
I'm aware of the gun. I told Jack I was looking for work that involved weapon handling, since that's what I have experience in.
[ Rafa has no idea about Bellamy's background, or any potential proclivities towards violence. Still, if he has to be reassured that his species is acceptable, why not let others see how it feels? ]
a guard?
good i am glad how advanced was your training and which weapons in particular?
not that i expect we shall have much trouble of course clients are sometimes difficult, but not often violent at least in my experience.

backdated to when jack offered him a job!
my name is rafa
jack advises me that we will be working together. i thought we should be introduced :)
I was meaning to inbox rafa, thanks for starting this!
Sorry if this is an inconvenience to you in any way. I was struggling to find a decent job so Jack did me a favor.
Of course! I'm sorry it didn't happen earlier
jack is a good friend.
i thought that we should speak first
may i ask what he said about me?
pftt no need to apologize! I should have started it ages ago, better late than never :)
[ He does look pretty standing around with a gun though... ]
:)
he is also kind to me, as usual.

I can't say I've ever worked with a vampire before.
As long as you're not a threat to anyone here, I'm fine with what you are.

Most of what I know about protecting people has been from fighting in battles. I know how to handle guns and I can defend myself with a sword.
I'm used to violence, but I'm not looking for it here.
no subject
that is fascinating. you are not the first to speak to me of it, but it is beyond imagination for me. please, i would be grateful to hear more
did you fight while there? i am used to war as well. the lack of it in this city is strange to me, so i understand.
no subject
I can tell you more, but I might ruin your expectations if you want to hear my story. It's pretty tragic.
I didn't fight in space. I fought on Earth. I try not to look to fighting as the solution these days.
[ Kinda trying to be a pacifist? But this place makes it very hard. ]
How long have you been a vampire?
no subject
don't worry, i do not look my age.
it would be easier if fighting were the best solution
but i agree that it is not. not in this situation at least
how did you come to know jack?
