Tank, Heals, DPS || OPEN

"Keep aggro off of me! Taunt! Taunt! UGH!" She scolded her computer (though- technically it was the idiot on the otherside who couldn't hear her that she was yelling at.) She was alone in the shop and had been all day. There was no one around and she was bored. So she'd decided to try and run a dungeon in World of Warcraft... which apparently had been a bad idea because all the little tweens were online and trying to play big kid games...

Chelsea was not pleased with her tank... or healer this time around. And she also failed to notice the door of the shop open mid-rant. "I'm a mage, not a damn paladin! Heal me, Heal me!"

Bills, Bills, Bills || Nick & Chels

"They’re easier," he agreed slightly, "mostly." Nicholas was never in love with computers, but he appreciated them, and could use one well enough. "But you haven’t met my brother. Unless we want to start ordering everything for him, we won’t be able to get him to remember to digitalize everything. Keeping him from losing the receipts as soon as he signs them is enough work." Nicholas really didn’t want to give himself more work. And he preferred paper anyways, convinced it was healthier, and not needing the blue light emitted by computers to keep him up at night, or the radiation to fry his brain. He was a paper person.

[techmasterchels]

"Well, if you digitized everything then you wouldn't have to have him save them at all. It could just save automatically. Or you could scan them in later and it would help with organization. I'm sure having 20 million receipts around isn't the cleanest way to do things... plus it's horrible for the enviroment..." She shrugged. "Sorry- I'm Chelsea Macintosh, I work at Bobble and Clank's as the computer tech... kind of my thing." She laughed, standing and walking over to offer her hand in a polite manner. "I guess I'm just kind of a computer geek but they can be really useful for organizing, I always lose papers and stuff. Sorry- I'm... rambling." She laughed nervously, realizing how much she was talking. Which wasn't really out of the ordinary for her if she was honest.

Blue Screen of Death || Chelsea and Mikhail

Mikhail was sitting in a cafe, quietly enjoying a cup of coffee as he read up on all kinds of things. His browser had many windows open, everything from instructions on how to do new tricks, to pages on different Houdini conspiracy theories. It was how he liked to start off his Mondays, which never started in the mornings, as he was unemployed. But coffee and a cafe still seemed like a good place to start.

He was halfway through reading on a page, when suddenly his computer froze, causing him to furrow his brow. Control, alt, delete didn’t work, and when that happened he moved his hands off the computer, about to reach out again and touch the power button when his screen went dead for a moment, before white text streamed across it. A little squeak escaped his lips, and he looked at the computer in horror, now frozen himself. Great. Now what was he supposed to do?

[techmasterchels]

Chelsea was waiting for her coffee, jumping up when her name was called. "Thanks!" She chimed happily, sipping it before dropping a tip in the jar. She always tipped well when her coffee was made correctly, even if it was after the second time around. She knew how difficult actually dealing with people could be. She loved doing it but sometimes they could be nasty and dealing with people who were lacking on their caffiene probalby made it worse at times. That just didn't sound pleasant.

She was about to head back to her seat with her own computer when the panic of someone having computer troubles caught her eye. She paused, frozen in place to see what the computer would do and what the user thought would fix it. At the squeak that emitted from the young man she giggled and walked over. "May I?" She motioned to the computer. Not wanting to touch without permission. But really feeling the need to fix it just based on the young man's expression.

Kara smiled, reaching into her purse and pulling out her wallet. She snapped it open, reaching in and pulling out a twenty. “You saved my life. Otherwise I’d have to buy a whole new computer and with college and almost moving out I don’t have the money for that.” She laughed. Perhaps that was too much information to share? She was just too happy to care. Her baby was alive! “I’ll keep that in mind. Seriously thank you so much again.”

[techmasterchels]

"Oh computers don't have to be expensive. It's a lot cheaper to build your own, which I can totally help you with if you ever need it. We build and fix things here. The boys are totally awesome at it too but i'm the tech specialist.' She grinned, with a few buttons she had run through the charger and handed Kara back her change and her receipt. "I'm glad your computer is alright! It's always hard losing one..." She laughed. "Best of luck! Just make sure your anti viruses are up to date and everything and you'll be good!"

His eyebrow quirked when the woman suggested another method of doing his job, without even knowing what it was. The corners of the accountant’s lips twitched downwards, just for a moment, before he noticed and arranged them back into a more neutral expression, just barely inviting with the hint of a smile. “Bills,” Nick answered her, glancing down at his stack again, reaching out to carefully straighten the pile of receipts he’d already gotten to, “and it works better for us to do them on paper.”

[techmasterchels]

"I thought so. I mean unless you collect receipts and order forms." She worked for a place with such things, they weren't really hard to recognize, even in their papery form. She seemed either unphased for oblivious to his annoyance at her poking her nose into his work. "Why? If they were on a computer you could organize them by numbers, by prices or whatever number of different ways you want to. Not that paper is... you know... bad. I'm just saying it'd be quicker and keeping things on file via computer can be really handy. Sorry- I don't mean to tell you how to do your job. A lot of people just don't realize how handy computers can be- if they've never tried their job on a computer." She smiled, hoping she hadn't offended the man.

"Your right" he said giving a small smile of hope. They would get out of this fine. There might be a couple scrapes and bruises along the way, but they would get through this. "Yes, it’s called an aftershock, hopefully it won’t be for a while. At least until we can get somewhere safer."

[techmasterchels]

She nodded, smiling a bit. "Okay, so. Let's think about this logically. The door is... completely out of the question. It's ... buried. Do you know where there were any other exits? Or... safe-rooms? The hallway looks pretty bad but maybe we can get through it..." She had to get herself into logic-mode. Like a video game. Or else she'd just panic with too many choices. "They have to have emergency exits somewhere... Too bad all the signs are probably crushed." She muttered. Looking to Milo, hoping maybe he could offer some sort of insight on whether or not there were other exits.

"Okay, I’ll take your word" he smiled taking a sip of the punch. It was pretty good and it helped his dry throat. It didn’t taste tainted so he guessed she was right. "Cheers!" he grinned happy to make a new friend.

[techmasterchels]

"Maybe I spiked it while you weren't looking." She winked. "I'm kidding! if i was trying to get you drunk I'd be honest about it." She giggled. Sipping her drink. "It is actually pretty good punch. I didn't think they still did things like punch for actual parties... I'm glad they do." She liked punch, and the little cheese and crackers they had out too. She was a simple person to please.

[princessoftheprideland]

Kara grinned, internally jumping for joy. Her computer contained her life… or at least some part of it and to lose it would be sad… like the end of an era. After all she’d spent a good five years on that baby. “Thank you!” She cried. “I should come here more often! You’re really nice and it was so quick!” She smiled, wanting to hug her but held herself back. “Seriously, you’re a lifesaver.” She reached into her bag, pulling out her wallet. “So… what do I owe you.” 

[techmasterchels]

"Well just because you got a quick fix this time doesn't mean I'm a miracle worker..." She laughed. "But, I can prove that to you next time." She grinned mischievously at the woman. "Here, this is the shop number. Just in case you need help again and can't make it in. "I know, I know." She couldn't help herself, technology was her passion! "Just $20 for the charger and you're good. And I can still do a free diagnostic next time because the half one I started was totally my B. So don't let me forget if you ever need it." She plucked a brand new universal charger from the wall and unplugged Kara's computer. "You're going to want the one labeled C, the others won't work but they're good to have on hand in case you or a friend need this for a different computer." She noted. Handing the laptop back to the younger girl and moving to the register.

Bills, Bills, Bills || Nick & Chels

Nick was seated in one of the booths at the cafe, a stack of paper sitting in front of him, along with a cup of coffee, his third that day. Bills were his division, as an accountant, and the most responsible of the coffee house’s owners. But that didn’t mean he didn’t dread doing them each month. It wasn’t a matter of actually taking care of them, it was more a problem of filing and order. They tried to let Hayden be in charge of all things food, but his scatterbrained little brother never kept the receipts for shipments in one place, or in any kind of order. And fixing that was what Nick hated.

Sighing, he let his head roll around once, stretching his neck as it had begun to cramp. Taking a sip of his beverage, he tried to stretch without getting up, knowing he’d be sore from huddling over the stack of papers all day. He put his mug down again, about to go to work when he noticed someone watching him. Over at the next booth, he was being watched, and clearing his throat, he straightened up, ever trying to be the polite owner of the establishment, “Can I help you?”

[techmasterchels]

Chelsea was typing away on her laptop sitting in the cafe. She liked this place, she wasn't here often. But it was nice. She frequented most in the winter when they had her favorites, which had just come out. So, she was here with her computer, enjoying a peppermint white chocolate mocha and a cheese danish. She didn't really come out here often otherwise, but it was worth it now and again, to enjoy the company of strangers minding their own business. Or well, she guessed that was the appeal of sitting in a coffee shop.

However as she pondered over a bite of danish she caught sight of a man with a bunch of papers lad out and couldn't help herself from trying to figure out what he was doing. And then next things she knew he was looking at her, and questioning her. "Oh- I uh-..." She bit her lip and shrugged. "I was wondering what you were doing, it looks like an awful lot of paper... a computer would be much easier not to mention better for the environment."

At your Service || Chels & Brooke

[heavyheartedcarson]

"Yeah…" she smiled a tad shyly, "but that’s a good thing. For…the most part." Prilla’s experiments sometimes scared her almost out of the house for a few days, but a short walk around the park usually worked. Brooke gasped and almost threw herself over the counter — if she wasn’t frozen in place. Instead her eyes bugged out as Chels dropped it without a care. Even more surprising was the fact it was ringing. Underwater. "How…" she let out a small laugh, still in disbelief. "I need two." she finally grinned. "Then you wouldn’t have so many Brooke induced head aches. Why don’t they tell you about these cases when you buy the phones?! Totally not fair! But I guess that’s besides the point. How much did yours cost? Do you know if they’ll work in salt water?"

[techmasterchels]

"Seems like fun to me. You guys always get along." She giggled. She loved all of them. Brooke, Bria, Prilla. All of the others too. She was friends with them, had been for a while. They were all eccentric, but honestly that was why she thought they were friends. She was... unique to say it simply. "Oh, I had to order it online... but it was kind of expensive. There are cheaper ones for $30. But I don't trust them. I want to make sure it's quality. So mine was $50. But it's totally worth it if it keeps me from breaking or drowning a phone, you know?" She giggled, she cared for her phone but accidents happened. It wouldn't be the first time she'd accidentally broken a phone a month after getting a brand new one. It was one reason she always backed everything up and kept at least one old phone on hand. "I can't see why it wouldn't work in salt water. I haven't really tested that one."

Tiny Bubbles || Emma & Chels

[swanofhope]

Emma grinned at the idea of bubbles filling the diner, but she had to agree that Granny would probably not appreciate it much.

"White chocolate peppermint mocha… That would be a mouthful to order; I’ll have to check it out sometime." Emma replied and then smiled at Ruby as she approached to take their order. "Cocoa with cinnamon for me, thanks." She glanced at Chelsea and nodded.

[techmasterchels]

Chelsea had started playing with bubbles in the shop once, that had been... well... not really disastrous but it had still annoyed Bobble. Not that he was very scary when he was angry... it was more amusing than anything.

"It's so good." She grinned. "Full of caffeine though,not that I mind..." She lived on caffeine. She had to, late night gaming sessions, work. Caffeine was her best friend. Looking up at the waitress she smiled. "I'd like a French Vanilla coffee, with extra sugar! That's all, thank you!"

"No problem" he said, you could hear the nervousness in his voice. He was trying to be the strong one but he was just as nervous and scared, that combined with his awkwardness was not really helping. "I’m not sure, maybe, there is always the chance of another one" he said honestly, he wasn’t trying to scare her but it was true.

[techmasterchels]

She smiled a bit, now that she'd calmed enough not to be in hysterics, she could tell he was scared a bit too. And who could blame him, really? "I- I don't know much about earthquakes... Just that you're suppose to cover your head or hide under things..." Sturdy things, that is. She sighed slightly. "We'll do this. We'll get out of here together... we just... need to figure out where's safest. At least until the aftershock... that's what it's called right?"

Could it really be that simple? Could a new cable be the answer to all her problems. “Not that I know of… but I have had it for a while so maybe it’s just age? Or something like that?” She suggested with a light shrug of her shoulders. She smiled, looking down at the computer. Hoping, praying that it would turn on.

[techmasterchels]

"Could be! Sometimes the chord isn't quite as durable. And sometimes it gets bent at one point and from there the wires just... never quite go back to normal... A lot can happen that deteriorates over time and then boom one day it just stops working." She sighed a little. Practically jumping for joy when the screen lit up. "Problem solved!"
