Introduction

In The Life of an American Teenager - Chicago

Little kids think we got the good life of high school house parties and staying out late. Adults think don't remember what it's like and thinks the worst thing to happen to us is to get our phones taken away by the teacher or getting more than one classes homework assignments. But we know what it's like. Not only do we have to deal with school work, we got to deal with drama too. A lot of teenagers deal with different, and the same, drama. Our drama goes from first time sex with our boyfriend or girlfriend to our sexual orientation to our parents pressuring us. That's what this Roleplay is about. It's about the real life of an American Teenager. Of course that can't be it. So, what's the catch?

Our Story

This Roleplay takes place over the Sumer the place where all of our characters have Sumer jobs so, unless your character is taking Sumer school or reverences something about school, our characters should not be in a school!
Our story takes place in Chicago, Illinois. Our character (list below) all works at Navy Pier. A big-small pier that has a mall, an IMAX Theater, a mall like building full of various fast food places (ex. McDonalds, Panda Express, Donkin Donuts, Starbucks, ect.), a green house, a House Of Mirrors, a ferris wheel, various speed boat rides, various small cruises, and various other small things along the dock. Now, to get you started on your characters, I decided to create little hints and labels for each character, but I shall leave the actual creation up to you.

The Street/Ghetto Girl: TAKEN BY ME - IAmAlien

The Street/Ghetto Girl is from the poorer ghetto part of the Chicagoan area. She's an in-the-closet bisexual (at least at the beginning of the RP). She's fines a like of interest in the White Hoodlum/Gangster, Gamer Chick, and Richie Guurl. Friends with (so far) the White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude.

The White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude: TAKEN BY ME -IAmAlien

The White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude is from the more violence and gang run area of Chicago. He's straight. Has a like of interest in the Street/Ghetto Girl, the Richie Chick, and the Smart Asian. Friends with (so far) the Richie Chick, Street/Ghetto Girl, Black Gangsta.

The Gamer Chick: TAKEN BY Echo_Rose

The Gamer Chick is from the suburbs outside of Chicago (ex suburban areas for character are Crete, Piotone, Steger, Beacher, Monee, ect). She is an in-the-closet homosexual (gay/lesbian) (at least at the beginning of the RP). She has a like of interest in the Street/Ghetto Girl, Richie Gurl. Friends with (so far) the Nerdy Guy, White Hoodlum/Ghetto Dude, Black Gangsta, Football Play (one in suburbs), Artsy Chick.
What I Would PreferI would prefer this character have a girly scene appearance with the colorful puffy hair and tight clothes. YOU DO NOT NEED TO FOLLOW THIS IT'S JUST A SUGGESTION!

The Richie Gurl: TAKEN BY BOO!

The Richie Gurl is from one of the rich communities with the big fancy houses. She's straight but questioning. Has a like of interest the White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude, small like of interest in the Street/Ghetto Girl. Friends with (so far) the White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude, Football Player, and Smart Asian.

Smart Asian: OPEN(boy) GIRL TAKEN BY MissBrightside_ / BOY OPEN

I don't really have an idea for the smart Asian. I guess there can be two smart Asians, a boy and a girl, since the Hoodlum/Gangster Dude has a like of interest in a Smart Asian. So you get to be a little more creative here.

Black Gangsta: TAKEN BY Geekly

Again, don't really have an idea for this guy. Their friends with (so far) The White Hoodlum/Gangster Dude and Gamer Chick, so they're from the same place. He's also a playa' so LADIES GOTTA WATCH THEY ASSES!! XD (me couldn't help it) Again, you get to be a little creative.

Nerdy/Geeky Guy: TAKEN BY Banshee

Form Chicago Heights. He's gay. Like of interest in Emo Guy, Football Player, and Black Gangsta. Friends with (so far) The Gamer Chick.

Football Player: RICH AREA - OPEN / SUBURBS - OPEN

One is from the rich area and one can come from suburbs. Can be creative here too. One from suburbs is friends with Gamer Chick and Artsy Chick.

The Artsy Chick: TAKEN BY PhychicBastard

The Artsy Chick is from the suburbs. She's straight. She has a like of interest in the Football Player (one from suburbs). She is friends (so far) with the Gamer Chick, Football Player (from suburbs).

The Emo Kid: TAKEN BY Sonohra

You get to be a little creative with this character.

The Exchange Student: TAKEN BY Luxe

The Exchange Student is a girl that came from Astralia! (More To Be Added About This Character)

Any suggestions for a different character just PM me.

Character Sheet | All Must Be Filled out CORRECTLY or no acceptation! | Does not have to be super long as long as I get the general idea. If you want it long, make it long.

AGE: (Between 16 - 19 unless you wish to make a teacher/parent then between 29 - _)

Okay, that's it! I worked very hard on this RP, so I want to see if I can make this thing run for at least a month. My sister, when she was on here, had a really good RP that was active for about 2 in a half to 3 months. Lets see if this can be as successful as hers was! FOR-NAROLEPLAY!

RULES:
Sorry, but for every great Roleplay, there is order in the rules.

1. No Godmoding yet we don't really fight each other in this type, but I wouldn't know that just yet.

2. Cursing is allowed as long as there's not a curse word in every sentence. (I allow cursing because I believe that curse words are just that. Words. No matter what they mean. And we're all gonna end up cursing no matter what our fucking parents do!)

3. No Sex. I understand I said something about first time sex in the intro, but I don't want to read that shit on this. You can say you and a NPC or an other character had sex if its okay with the owner of here say character, but I don't want details.

4. Fighting. It happens a lot between teenagers, so I'll allow it as long as nobody takes it personally. Like, I can imagine one of the football players bullying the nerdy kid or the street/ghetto girl, but you need to make sure the characters owner isn't taking it personally.

5. Join the role play. Join it now. I may add more rules later. Until then, have fun with the four easy rules to follow! :D Yay!!

The GM of this roleplay hasn't created any rules! You can do whatever you like!

1stP POV: Danny
I wake up to the sound of alarm clock ringing. Today's the first day of my new job at Navy Pier and I'm suppose to be working at the IMAX Theater giving people their pop-corn and candy at the snack bar. So, I got off the only bed in the house. I put on some dark green baggy cargo pants on over my shorts and a tight dark bile tee shirt on. I brushed through my hair then put on my grey, black, and pink Converse with padded high tops and blue, purple, and pink shoelaces. I grabbed my favorite blackish brown hoodie and put it on as I walked out of the apartment and down that stairs, making sure I haven't hold on right before going outside.
I look around to see a few people here and there that are sitting down in allies against the wall. I look up and see the tall buildings. It's sad because it looks like its gonna rain, but I guess that's a good thing because who wants to come to Navy Pier when it's raining? Nobody, that's who. I walk to the train station to take a train up into the city by Navy Pier. Stepping on the train, I take a seat close to the door near the back, hoping that no one comes back here with me. I stay quiet and look out the window as all the buildings pass by.


1stP POV: Chase
"Chase! Chase! Chase!? Chase!! Wake up you dumb ass! Your gonna be late for your first day of work! Damn. Do you need a ride or what?" My eye flutter open to see Terry running around grabbing stuff off the ground and throwing it on the bed. "I'll just walk. It's only a couple blocks away." I say and stand up grabbing my hoodie off the ground. On the way out, throw my hoodie on and take my snap-back hat off the counter with an apple. I hold the apple in my mouth and, while still walking out of the building and down the street, I adjust my hat. I shout to some of the gangs and dealers to say hi then continue to walk the four block to Navy Pier for that job I got. I'm just glad I ain't staying in one place all day and get to walk around and talk some.

((Sorry it's so short! Anyways, you can now start posting! Can't wait to see 'em all))

Evie rolls out of bed when she hears her alarm going off, she slammed her hand down on it to make it stop then rolled back over to sleep. Five minutes later she hears a knock on her door then her mothers voice saying she needed to get up or she will be late to work. Work..the thing she really didn't want to do but her mother was forcing her to so for one she becomes more social and for two she can get the new gaming system she wants. "Im up, Im up" she yells then slowly swings her legs over the bed then sits up. She rubs her eyes for a couple minutes before getting up and grabbing a pair of black pants and the polo shirt she was suppose to wear. She usually wouldnt be caught dead wearing a polo shirt but she had to wear it for the job. She took a quick shower and got dressed, she put her dreads up in two messy pony tails then put a bandana in her hair, put on some light makeup then she was ready.

After putting on her combat boots she made her way downstairs with a small backpack "Mom are you taking me? she asked as she took a protein bar off the counter.Ill be taking you to the train station then I have to head to work myself her mother said as she grabbed the car keys and went outside, Evie followed her out and got int the car. It was a quiet drive to the train station, she had music playing from her ipod in her ears so she didnt make conversation with her mother.

As the car stopped at the train station Evie waved bye to her mother then made her way inside the train station then got on the train that was headed to Navy Pier. She looked for a seat and found one two seqts from the back, she noticed a girl with green cargo pants and a hoodie on, she coulsn't help but smile to the girl then she quickly sat down thinking she made a fool of herself once again.

Sitting on the train waiting for it to move was hard. I could hear my 'friends' now. Thats why I don't take train places, Danny. They take forever to get to where you want. Well, they'd say something like that anyway. I glanced up in time to see a pretty white chick with dreads, a bandana, and combat boots. As I had just said, she was pretty. She smiled at me before sitting down two seats away. I smiled to myself as I stared at her for a minute. I thought about saying hi, but then I thought to myself. If some person I didn't even know came up to me and said hi on a train in a city fool of gangs, drug dealers, and crazy people, I'd be pretty freaked out. So, I just turned back to look out the window getting the same blank expression that was on my face as before.
I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, when I checked it, it was a text from my mom asking me where I was. Or, well, it was a little more like this:
'Dany grl whr r u??"
Shaking my yea slightly, I texted her back saying I was going to work at Navy Pier. It killed me sometimes how forgetful she was about everything that had to do with me. One year she had even forgotten my birthday. As I jammed my phone back in my pocket and glanced back at the white blonde girl, the train halted to a rocky-bumpy-jerking stop. Everyone jerked and a old lady a few seats down dropped her groceries. I stood up and walked to the lady, smiling slightly and saying excuse me when I passed the white girl with those dreads, and combat boots. So cute and hot. Okay, back to what I was doing, I went and helped the lady pick up her bags and groceries and setting them on the seat next to her before getting off the train to walk the next block to Navy Pier, considering the train only stops a block away.

Evie sat down and fiddled with her ipod, she had that eary feeling that someone was looking at her from behind, she had a feeling it was that girl she looked at before because that was the only person she saw back there. She wanted to look back once again but decided against it and just continued to listen to her music as the train moved. Thd train suddenly stopped and she watched as an old lady's groceries fell over. She was about to get up and help the lady but stopped when the girl from the back smiled at her and excused herself. She stood up and watched as the girl helped the old lafy and Evie couldn't help but smile at that.

She got up and walked off the train and started walking towards Navy Pier, the girl from the train was ahead of her and was going the same direction she was. She really didn't want the girl to think she was following her sonshe cleared her throat a little "Um im not following you we just seem to be going the same direction" she said then pretty much mentally face palmed at how stupid she must of sounded. She looked down to the ground and continued to walk, feeling like she just made a fool of herself in front of the girl.

I turned around when I heard someone clear there throat and smiled at the blonde girl from the train when she explained that she wasn't following me. "Nah, it's okay." I said and started walking with the girl instead of ahead of her. "I'm just headin' to Navy Pier. I gotta job over there." I added, staying beside the girl while looking forward. I was just glad I didn't need to walk alone, even if this girl wasn't going to the Pier. It was weird to me, that I was actually talking to someone from off the train. I looked around before adjusting my hood. "I'm Danny, by the way." I added before giving her a quick side glance and continuing to walk with my hands in my pockets.

((Sorry, it's short. Was too scared I'd end up power-playing))

Evie smiled at the girl when they started to walk together, she kept her eyes to the ground, biting her lip a little. When she heard the girl say she was going to Navy Pier for a job she looked up and at the girl "Um I am too..um heading to Navy Pier to a job...to work" she said awkwardly then looked back down to the ground. "I am just starting a job at the arcade in the theater". She then heard the girl introduce herself as Danny, she looked back up to the girl and smiled a little "Evie..I mean Evies my name, im Evie...ugh sorry" she muttered the last part and sighed. Sometimes she wished she couldn't talk, then she wouldn't put herself in these awkward situations. As she continued to look down to the ground and walk with Danny she noticed the other girls shoes, they were colorful and Evie couldnt help but smile, she liked them. She loooked over to Danny and saw the other girl looking at her so she quickly looked back down to the ground, unsure of what to say.

Bastian stared at the note tacked to the fridge for a good five minutes before he was able to push past the sleep clouding his mind and comprehend what it said. Not that it was a surprise, or said anything special or life changing. Gone to Nancy’s for the week, took Tuck. Keep house clean. Nancy was his mother’s sister and they often went to stay for days at a time here and there, more so during the summer. He left the note where it was and fixed himself a quick breakfast, while convincing himself that he didn’t care that they never asked if he wanted to go with them.

He was still brooding over it as he got dressed for his shift at the arcade. Bastian didn’t really have to be in for another hour, but he liked to be early and maybe get in a couple of games first. He pulled on a pair of black slacks and the mandatory polo. He topped it off with a pair of suspenders because he could, and grabbed his keys on the way out the door. His car wasn’t the best, but it ran pretty reliably and was better than the train in his opinion.

Bastian drove through a McDonald's on the way, picking up a couple of breakfast combos. Evie was supposed to start work that morning, too. He was excited to have a friend working there with him, even if she did beat him eight out of ten times on most games. Bastian didn’t have many friends, but those he called friend he tended to spoil when and where he could. Paying for a cheap but tasty breakfast was something he could certainly do.

It took another ten minutes just to find a parking space that wouldn’t have him hiking out to Timbuktu. Sack of food in one hand, his rucksack emblazoned with a red dragon symbol slung over the other shoulder, Bastian locked his jalopy and started the shortish walk down to the pier. Oh yeah, he needed to pick up an IMAX application. Couldn’t hurt to at least try, he figured. Maybe for the summer he could even work both jobs, wasn’t like he had social engagements to keep. Pffft.

He spotted a handful of people walking ahead of him, and was pretty sure he recognized one by the dreds alone. Bastian wasn't sure if he wanted to call out and draw attention to himself though, so he just walked along behind them several yards. He figured he'd catch up with Evie at the arcade anyway and he didn't want to run to catch up. Way too early in the day for running.

I looked over to Evie as she talked and smiled. "That's cool. I guess we're gonna be seein' each other a lot then 'cause I gotta job at the snack bar at the Theater." I smiled at Evie but made a face when I said I'm working the snack bar. I couldn't help but smile at Evies awkwardness. "Hey, girl, why you so awkward?" I asked the girl looking right at her. I couldn't help but think, Damn, this girl good lookin'. I wonder if she gay or bi? I shrug my shoulders and start looking around. I saw some guy a little ways back that I've seen at Navy Pier before with a Micky Dee's bag in his hand. I stare at him for a minute then turn back to Evie.

Evie couldn't help but smile at Danny when she said they would be seeing eachother a lot "Id like that" she said out loud before thinking and quickly put her hand over her mouth. Geez Evie your going to scare her away, shes probably not that way anyways she thought to herself. Then Danny asked her why she was so awkward "um..well...i..um.." she wasn't sure she should blurt out that she was awkward around people that she 'liked'. "I just sometimes get tongue tied and yeah..." she bit her lip and looked up at Danny and smiled, she couldn't help but think Danny was pretty. She then saw Danny looking at something or someone behind them so she looked back and saw her friend Sebastian. She nearly squealed and had to stop herself from going and jumping in his arms "Bastian!" she ylled and wavsd to him seeing that he had mcdonalds, her stomach rumbled a little at the thought of food since she only had a power bar for breakfast.

I smiled at Evie when she said shed like that about the seeing a lot of each other. Now, I know something must be up because of how Evie acted when I asked her why she's so awkward. My eyes got wide an I jumped a little when Evie yelled to the guy holding the Micky Dee's bag. I couldn't help but smile and laugh a little at how excited and happy she looked. I just had to keep saying keep cool, keep cool over and over in my head.

Bastian gave a sideways grin, a dimple on the right flashing briefly, as Evie saw him and waved. He still didn't run to catch up, but his steps quickened enough to do the job. Blue eyes darted briefly to the other girl and he gave a quiet, "Hi." Then Bastian focused back on Evie, more comfortable with a friend around, so he wasn't completely shy. "Figured I'd grab some grub for us both. Don't know if the manager will have me show you the ropes or not, but you should always start the day with breakfast. Most important meal, you know."

His geek was showing a little, but he knew Evie wound up with just a power bar for breakfast more times that he wanted her to confess to. Power bar, really? Bastian believed a well balanced meal three times a day actually helped. Not that McDonalds was balanced, but it was the thought that counted.

He glanced back to the other girl and not wanting to seem rude, he murmured, "Uh, hi. I'm Bastian." Fingers did this little wriggle wraggle, then he realized how nerdy that looked and ran them through his hair instead.

Evie watched as Bastian quickened his pace to walk over to Danny and her, she looked to Danny then to Bastian and smiled big. When Bastian mentioned food for them both and that it was the most important meal she grinned "food is good" she was still kind of in an awkward state because of Danny and she couldnt help but steal glances of Danny. "I mean thanks Bastian, I only was able to grab a power bar before I was out the door, I didn't get right up when my alarm went off" she shrugged, she was able to talk better since Bastian was here. "Bastian this is Danny, I just net her but shes cool and I like her" she then realized what she said and quickly add in a rush "I mean I lke her, like hope we can be friends and such like" her eyes went wide and then looked down to the ground and started walking again and mutteres "dammit" under her breath. Get it together Evie she thought to herself as she scuffed her foot, she wondered if Bastian noticed how she was acting, they've been friends for awhile now and only time she got like this was when she liked someone but she hasn't told Bastian yet that she was gay, she was afraid of what he would think.

I smiled slightly as I watched Evie and the guy talk. "Hey." I said with a small smile when the guy introduced himself and Evie introduced me. I cocked an eye brow at Evie when she started talking about how she just meant me and thought I was cool and how she liked me?! Now that, that defiantly made me smile and my eyes get a little wide. Yeah, I caught that and how fast she added that last part saying she likes me in the since of just friends. Well, you know what Imma say to that? Imma say uhmmhuhmm, sure, 'just in the friend way'. I ain't gonna actually tell her that though, but…I don't even know man. I started walking again with Evie after she turned around and started walking off.

Bastian grinned sideways again, one hand coming up to rub at the back of his neck as his gaze shifted between the two. He just followed alongside once they started walking again. He was used to being quiet, so it wasn't a hardship letting the two girls talk while he just played tag-a-long. Once they made it to the arcade, he'd divide up the food, and then check in with the manager on how he wanted to train the new employee. Until then, he glanced now and then to the two girls.

Evie was acting like she liked Danny, like liked like. He didn't know if Evie swung that way or not. Then again, he hadn't ever come right out and told his friend he batted for the same team, too worried that it'd somehow get back to his family. A muscle along the side of his jaw clenched briefly before he pushed all that aside to focus on the day.

Evie couldn't help but notice the awkward silence that happened after they started walking again, she did notice the smile and the wide eyed look from Danny after her awkward mention of how she said she liked Danny. Maybe she wasn't the only one. She hummed softly to the music that was going in one of her ears, she wasn't exactly sure what to say or do so she stayed silent except for the humming until they made it to the IMAx theater and arcade. She stopped at the doors of the arcade and looked to Danny "Well this is our stop, um maybe we can um catch up during break or um after our shifts?" she asked hopefully, bitkng her lip a little then looked down to the ground and shuffled her feet a bit.

I took glances at Evie with a blank look on my face as we got closer to the theater. I looked around and saw all the different employees of the different stores, gift shops, the house of mirrors, and all the crew for the small cruise ships. Once we were in front of the theater I stopped and looked around. It looked dark and glumly, that meant we might not have much work todo today. I turned to face Evie and Bastin when Evie said something about meeting up sometime during break. I smiled lightly. "Yeah, I'd like that." I said softly, not quietly, softly with a lot of heart and smiled again. "Well," I started, looking for one of them to the other. "I'll see ya' guys later." I ended with a small wave and slight nod and a small smile to Evie before walking over to the doors. As I walked I gently took my hood off so I wouldn't mess up my hair, which looked like a dark black color instead of the tented dark redish-brown color it would look like in the sun.
I walked over to the snack bar and started talking to one of my so called 'friends', Loriel. I took off my jacket and put it behind the counter of the snack bar. I then grabbed my red vest that had my name tag on it off the peg on the wall and put it on. As Loriel talked to me, I looked back over at Evie. I'm not even sure what to call the expression that was on my face. I was smiling very slightly and softly, and my eyes were a little wide and were getting a little watery. I'm not even sure if I was happy that we might meet up during break or if I'm nervous about it. I don't even know. I'll just remind myself to flash her a smile every now and then when I see her. Yeah, that's the plan for now. Baby steps, Danny, baby steps.

On the edge of the pier sat a young girl, by the name of Athena Crombie. Her light brown hair reached just past her shoulders, and she was wearing a plain black t-shirt with denim shorts. Athena had just moved from Australia. She didn't know many people, and she was hoping to make some friends. She pulled out a pink-coloured notebook and scribbled the words 'What I must do today- Find some friends' She shoved the notebook back in her handbag and stood up. A few meters away from her was a girl with blonde hair in dreadlocks, another girl with dark hair, and a boy with brown hair. She debated with herself for a minute, but then jogged over to them.

She twiddled her thumbs and then gave a warm smile.

"Hi! my name is Athena and I just moved here from Australia" She awkwardly stumbled, but then composed herself and flashed another smile

Natasha woke with a start. The annoying ringing of her alarm clock stopped when she slammed her hand against the button on the top. She quickly looked up at the clock. "SHIT! I'm LATE!". She leaped out of bed and got changed into denim jeans and a white shirt as quick as she could. She mumbled stuff to herself as she grabbed her keys and her phone, then slammed the door and locked it behind her.

Luckily for her, the money her mother and father had given her was enough to buy a house near the Pier. And so, she ran down the street to the outside of the Pier where she stopped to gather her breath. Slowing down, Natasha stumbled into the Pier with her head down, hiding her face with her hands slightly, and made her way to the gift shop.

Jasmine groaned lightly as her eyes fell on the already crowded kitchen, pulling at her long black socks she walked down.
"Ma, I'm going to work." she tells her and walks quickly out of the house, grabbing a piece of toast as she left.
She lightly kissed the heads of all the babies and closed the large red front door to their small house.

She hurries down the pier to the gift shop, looking around to see if any of her friends got there first - Seems not.
She straightens her while blouse and red checked skirt before slipping into the side door and takes of her jacket, hanging it on the allocated slot, she stood behind the till, resting her chin on her fist as she watches the mum's and children walk by, looking at cuddly toys and all manor of gift rock (A sweet).

Sebastian blinked with surprise when they were joined by another girl. Suppose it wasn't really unusual save for the fact that he was around. Then she stated she was from Australia, maybe they were just extraordinarily friendly or something. He rubbed at the back of his neck and murmured a greeting. "Uh, hi. I'm Bastian." While he knew the others could introduce themselves, he was old fashioned in other ways than his fashion tastes. It was the polite thing to do when in a group.

"This is Evie and, uh," though it took him a moment to recall, he remembered the other girl's name, "Danny." There was that sideways grin and dimple again. Bastian tended to do that while he tried to figure out what he should do or say next. "We're, uh, on our way to work." Maybe one day he'd strike it rich and not have to work for a living again.

And maybe one day pigs will fly.

Sneaking inside the gift shop, Natasha noticed a girl already at a till. She hid behind a few people, making sure no-one from management was there. Natasha dashed to the other till beside the girl and stood perfectly still for a moment, catching her breath. "Uhm. Hi. Don't tell anyone I was late, please."She shot a smile at Jasmine. "Are you new here or is it just me? If it's just me..." Her voice drifted off, picturing her just sitting on her own all day. "Sorry. Hi, I'm Natasha!" She extended her hand to the girl beside her.

Evie watched as Danny left, she couldn't help but stare after the girl, but then another girl came over and made her jump out of her thoughts. She bit her lip and then smiled to the girl that introduced herself as Athena and that she was from Aulstralia. She smiled to Bastian when he introduced them but lightly chuckled when he introduced Danny. "Uh Bastian, buddy Danny already went to her work" she pointed her thumb in Dannys direction and looked over to Danny and caught her eye and smiled then blushed. She looked back to Athena and Bastian "Ive got to go check in and start learning things, it was nice meeting you Athena" she gave them a smile then went inside the arcade. She put her bag and things in a cubby then started to go around and turned the machines on like her boss just showed her how.

((OOC: Decided to go to 3rdP POV so I could post for Danny&Chase Hope that's okay))

After Danny got all settled into her job and was shown what to do, she went and stood at the cash register. She leaned on the counter and started watching the people outside, seeing Evie go to the arcade after some girl walked up to her and Bastian. A couple and, what Danny assumed, their kids walked in the theater. Danny could pretty much hear the kids whining about wanting to go to the arcade, she could also hear the couple saying "No." One of the older employees at the theater was giving out tickets at the ticket booth. The theater had two managers. One manager for the people who work at the theater dealing with the employees that work around the movies, snack bar, and tickets. One manager for the people who work at the arcade part of the theater dealing with the employees that work with all the games and the prizes. Yeah, it's a very close yet distant work between the two jobs. The two managers were standing in the lobby by the entrance to the arcade. They did this a lot to run trough the schedule for the day, and to also talk about their employees.

As they talked, Chase decided to do the normal thing he does at work. He walked to the IMAX Theater first, knowing by heart that that place has to be running in good power, considering it's a theater and an arcade. Chase decided to go through the front door since it's still early. He nodded to Bastian and the girl as he walked by them. He decided to check out the Showing Rooms first, since he saw the people at the ticket booth. Chase said hi to both managers and continued walking to the Showing Rooms that hold the Projectors for the theater. "Hey-hey, Dan-nay!" Chase said as he passed Danny. Danny just gave a small smile and nod and Chase went straight to the projection room. He kept a mental check list in his mind as he went through what he was suppose to. Projector? Check. Working? Check. Clean? Check. After he was finished with that, he walked back out to the lobby and went in the arcade where he saw the new blonde chick with dreads turning on machines. Chase started going around to every machine she turned on and looked behind it to make sure there was no sparks.

Bastian gave a slightly sheepish smile to Evie and Athena before moving into the arcade to make sure things were getting prepped for the day. He still had a little while before he was on the clock, but he liked to stay busy. There was a bit of a head nod in greeting when Chase made his rounds, and after ten minutes, he was satisfied things were setup to open. Which meant he had time to get in a game or two.

He grinned, eyes crinkled at the edges, as he moved to one of the older games they had. Sometimes nostalgia drew in people as much as having the newest and greatest games. Not that the arcade had the newest and greatest, they often had to wait a month to get a chance at them, otherwise it was too expensive, but the one he liked was much, much older, but still pretty popular. Gauntlet. He couldn't help but grin big each time he heard the game talk.

"Elf shot the food!"

"Wizard is about to die!"


He loved this game.
