“maybe, i doubt they’d ever come to shady ass bridgeshore though. dunno.” he gave her a small shrug. “yeah, most people here are pretty uptight. i get why but it’s not exactly good for my comedy ego.” gus’ head tilted when she talked her job, nodding along. “that’s good. if he’s ever looking for more employees, tell him to hit me up. even though i’m not of age yet. i can still pass and my parents are trying to get me out of their house.”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ probably not, but they have auditions in some of the bigger cities --- yeah, i’ve looked it up before. i wanted to be BELLE in disneyland for the longest time. ❞ she scrunched her nose in embarrassment. ❝ you poor thing, -- your poor ego. ❞ she gave him a fake pout. ❝ he’s always looking for more help, mainly for food servers in the restaurant part. it’s technically not illegal if you’re not serving alcohol, right -- yeah. if you really want, he’s there every night between five and eight.  ❞

“I’m just trying to figure out how to text, and before you judge me for this let me just say that the last phone I owned was a flip phone so..”

[mikvelson-blog]

she let out a small laugh. ❝ NO judgement here, I went through the same thing when I got mine in, like, the eleventh grade, ❞ the brunette stepped slightly closer to him so she could see the screen. ❝ so, you’re gonna want to tap on the little envelope icon at the bottom of the screen. ❞

[ftwaugustus]

“i would hope so, wouldn’t want to make me out to be a liar or something. great. at least if i don’t graduate i can put bambi look-a-like on my resume. they’re just my eyes, really. really? usually people tell me to shut up when i say things like that, a;though they just may have bad senses of humor. good idea.” he sensed her possible awkwardness, shifting on his feet. “so. bartender? what’s that like?”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ i’m sure disney is looking for a humanoid, bambi look-a-like --- ❞ she raised a brow. ❝ why? i thought it was pretty good. the bad sense of humor MUST be it. ❞ at his question she chuckled, and lowered her head a bit. ❝ um, it’s not terrible ?? pay is decent,  the tips are good and it pays the bills --- nothing wrong with that. my boss is pretty chill, he gives his employees discounts on everything. ❞

[bjarke-stenberg-deactivated2016]

“I can’t seem to figure out how to work this damn thing.” Bjarke huffed, smudging the screen with his thumb. “Can you tell me how to work this stupid phone?”

[mikvelson-blog]

LUCI looked at the man, giving him a nod and a smile. ❝ sure, what’re you trying to do ?? ❞

[lovefelled-deactivated20180325]

“what are you— stop, god, what are you doing— don’t do THAT.” and here he had been thinking that he had seen it all. obviously he hadn’t. 

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ don’t be a baby --- it’s NOT LIKE i’m making you eat it or anything, ❞ luci dipped the fry in her snack pack, popping it into her mouth with a smile a moment later.

[ftwaugustus]

“yeah, well, i’m more like bambi because i’m probably taller or something. and i don’t sound like his gilrlfriend, my voice is deeper. of course you haven’t because i just made it up. haven’t we all? exactly. make a little extra money in case something happens.”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ i’m gonna take your word for it --- the height thing. alright, you can be the bambi eye look-a-like. either way you have adorable deer eyes. you’re good at it, not gonna lie. most the people i’ve met have. not a bad plan, i’ll keep it in mind, ❞ luci laughed, rubbing her hand against the back of her neck.

[ftwaugustus]

“i figured you would say bambi and not his girlfriend,. since they have the same eyes realty. that’s true. they’ll have to do the feed checking of shame in the morning after they throw up. eh, no one said you had to make it your first profession.”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ the bambi eye look-a-like goes to the cute guy who scooped my ice cream yesterday at coldstone, but you were a close second so that’s why i said bambi’s girl. i’ve never heard that term before but it’s pretty perfect, and i’ve DEFINITELY done that more than once. that is very true, it could be a good back-up. ❞

[eliza-lawson-deactivated2016040]

“I guessed that they would be. Not going to lie, I’ve had my fair share of bad experiences with drunk people too but the majority of the time I just manage to brush it off.”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ haven’t we all --- had out fair share, that is ?? ❞ the brunette laughed, running a hand through her tresses.  ❝ good on you, sometimes i have to restrain myself from hopping over the counter and clawing some jerk’s eyes out. ❞

[kali-torro-deactivated20160413]

“I feel like I meet some of those people in the parlor. The amount of people who come in drunk asking for pathetic tattoos might be the most irritating this I’ve faced over the past twenty-five years of my life. Of course I return them away - I wouldn’t waste my art on them.”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ PROBABLY, a lot of times they’ll make bets and the loser has to get a tattoo or something. as you shouldn’t. unfortunately i don’t really turn people away until they’ve had a few too many, get a bit rowdy, or insult the owner. ❞

[ftwaugustus]

“did you just call me doe eyes? i know what alcohol does, but i figured they wouldn’t even remember what they said. i guess it really depends on how trashed they get. you could probably make them pay you for listening to them.”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ yeah --- sorry ?? you just kind of reminded me of bambi’s girlfriend. i’m sure they don’t, BUT most of the time their buddies are taking videos and pictures so they find out eventually. i totally could. honestly i’d make a GREAT psychiatrist but, unfortunately, my passion lies with singing so, ❞ she shrugged.

[eliza-lawson-deactivated2016040]

“Yeah, I wouldn’t recommend that. Although, if they’re really drunk, they might not notice.”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ yeah. most of the time they’re not that bad, but it’s when you get a big group when they’re pretty bad.  ❞

[oflycaon-deactivated20160404]

“You know, if someone didn’t know you heard that they would probably think you worked in some adult mart or something.”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ adult mart --- ?? oh, you mean a SEX SHOP. i can see why that mistake could be made. plus my work ‘uniform’ isn’t exactly a before six o’clock outfit. ❞

[eliza-lawson-deactivated2016040]

“I wouldn’t know about it but some drunks can be quite funny.” Eliza replied, knowing that Luci was a bartender as she had seen her one of the few times that she had gone to the bar.

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ the funniest, i do feel bad SOMETIMES about laughing or joking about it, but at least i’m not doing it while on the job, ❞ she gave the blonde a smile.

[ftwaugustus]

“why would they do that, exactly?”

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ because, doe eyes, ALCOHOL makes people say things they don’t want to be said. and when they have more than a few drinks they suddenly think i’m their therapist, so they tell me about their WEIRD dreams and expect me to know what they mean. ❞

[mikvelson-blog]

❝ i LOVE seeing people who come into my work. they always give me this look of utter embarrassment and quickly walk by as if their shoelaces are the most interesting things in the world. it’s AMAZING. ❞

“I think it’s important to take risks and put yourself out of your comfort zone. I always say a lot of things that have happened to me in my career have happened because I threw myself in at the deep end and then I worked really hard. I wanted to be a singer, so I sung every hour under the sun. Do everything you can for yourself. Rehearse. Practice everyday. If you can’t sing a certain song, sing it and sing it and sing it. Always throw yourself in the deep end and swim as hard as you can to swim up. And that’s all you can do – take risks and then work really hard because a certain element of things can be luck, but also the harder you work, the luckier you get. If you want something to happen, don’t rely on external things to try to make that happen. Put your best self forward.”
