Davin nodded, leaning back in his seat again. He got the information ready, and once he had Tohru's contact information, he sent a few links.

Once the links went through, Tohru began exploring.
"Thanks! These are actually really helpful," he said, back from where he'd sat on the couch again, "I'm thinking of looking at some restaurant jobs, since I can cook pretty well. There are a few of those on here."
(gtg now, sorry)
Davin smiled. "Yeah, no problem." he replied. He sent in a resume for a few different jobs, hoping he'd get at least one. The coffee pot chimed, and he got up. "You want coffee?"
group
(It's all good)
"Yes please," Tohru replied.
He sat back and started filling out a resume. It had been a while since he'd had to fill out one of these, and he felt quite insecure talking about himself and his job experience and history.
Davin came back, handing a mug to Tohru and sitting down. "Here." he said with a quick smile. He took a sip of his own, closing his eyes.
group
“Thank you,” Tohru replied.
Shit, there was that smile again. He took a sip of his coffee. It had been a few days since he’d actually been able to drink any, which wasn’t exactly great because he practically lived off caffeine.
"You're welcome." he replied, eyes still close. He took another sip of his, stretching and letting out a breath. "Any luck with jobs yet?"
group
“Well… I’m working on filling out a resume,” Tohru replied, “but it’s hard…”
He set his device on his lap and continued picking at the form.
"Yeah. You want some help?" he opened his eyes to look over at Tohru. His tail flicked slightly as he wound it around one leg.
group
Tohru nodded shyly.
“That’d be great,” he said, “I don’t have a lot of prior job experience, so…”
He stopped for a moment.
“These are entry-level, I’m worrying too much, aren’t I?”
"Yeah, you are, but that's fine." Davin got up, moving to sit next to him. "Now. What do you need help with?" he asked, raising his eyebrows.
group
"I don't know," Tohru huffed, "They're asking for like… my skills and shit. I don't know about that…"
He took another sip of coffee.
"It's annoying."
"Well, what are your skills?" he asked, looking at Tohru with raised eyebrows.
group
"I don't think I have any special skills," Tohru sighed, rubbing the back of his head, "Or maybe I'm just insecure as hell. Maybe both.
He leaned his head against the couch.
"Yeah, maybe I'll just apply for a bunch of cooking jobs and call it a day."
He laughed softly. "Come on. You found me. How did you find me? What skills did you use to find me?" he asked, looking over at Tohru. "Cooking jobs are a possibility too, I suppose."
group
"Oh, well… I'm great at investigation, but I don't really want to have a big presence here," Tohru said, "I would make a great private investigator, but since we're running from people, I'd rather be a little more… discreet."
"Right. So what sort of skills does doing all that require?" Davin asked, taking a sip of coffee and raising his eyebrows at Tohru.
group
"Well, first and foremost, problem-solving. The ability to find contacts and get the most out of them you can. And uh… I dunno… I just feel…" his voice lowered a bit, "kind of useless, honestly…"
"So, problem-solving. That's a skill." Davin said, leaning over to make a note of that. "You aren't useless, Tohru, you've just never really done this before."
group
Tohru laughed. "You've known me two days and seen me fail a job. But I mean… if after all that, you still insist I'm not useless…
Tohru typed some things into the form, his fingers shaking a little.
"I hate this part… Why must I talk about myself…?" he grumbled with each keystroke.
"Because your employer needs to know how you view yourself. Trust me, I've done this like…so many times, gods, I can't even count it anymore." Davin replied, shaking his head.
group
"They can't know how I actually view myself," Tohru joked, "Time to lie, I guess."
He continued filling out the form.
"Might as well just start writing shit. I can go back and fix it if I don't like it."
Davin snorted softly. "Just…I don't know. Don't be afraid of your flaws, but don't emphasize them either, I guess." he shrugged his shoulders.
group
"That's the idea," Tohru murmured.
He finished the form, made a few small edits, and sent it before he could doubt himself anymore.
"Alright, there we go."
He took another sip of his coffee, and nodded. "Good. Now we should both have jobs, eventually."
group
“Yeah, hopefully,” Tohru smiled.
“Well, I’ll drop a few more applications at other places and call it a day.”
(not gonna be super active tonight sorry)
He smiled. "Alright. Well. Once you're done with that, what would you like to do?" he asked, looking at Tohru with a raised eyebrow.
group
(Same here, you're fine)
"Oh, I haven't gotten that far," Tohru mused, "Did you have any ideas?"
He took another sip of his coffee.
He laughed, and sipped his coffee. "Eh. Not really, sadly." He replied with a soft smile. "I wish I did."
group
"Well, we could explore the town a bit more, I guess," Tohru suggested, "It would be nice to get more familiar with the place."
