1. WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?

Hi! I’m Barbie!

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY???

I’m here to volunteer with construction, upkeep, and anything else that needs to be done around the lounges! Because I love helping people, I guess that’s why! 

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING? DISCLAIMER: OUR REVENUE COMES FROM DONATIONS, AND TEN CENT SNACK FOODS. BUT YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN HOURS, AND YOU CAN EAT AS MANY HOT DAWGS AS YOU WANT. GO EASY ON THE MOUNTAIN LIGHTNING, IT’S PRETTY MUCH THE ONLY THING THAT KEEPS ME AWAKE SOMETIMES AND IF I GO DOWN THIS IS GOING TO BE A FUCKING SHIT SHOW.

I’m here to volunteer! No need to pay me! 

“HI BARBIE, I’M KARKAT. I HAVE TO SAY YOUR RESUME IS FUCKING IMPRESSIVE. I MEAN, I WOULD LITERALLY HAVE TO SCOOP MY THINKPAN OUT AND SHELF IT SOMEWHERE TO NOT BRING YOU ON BOARD. SINCE YOU SEEM LIKE A GOOD FIT FOR MOST OF OUR DEPARTMENTS, I’M JUST GOING TO GIVE YOU FREE REIGN TO DO WHATEVER YOU WANT. CONSTRUCTION WILL BE YOUR FOCUS, BUT NATURALLY, IF YOU HAVE IMPROVEMENTS TO MAKE THEN JUST GO FOR IT.  DISTRICT BETA STILL NEEDS SOME WORK SINCE IT WAS LEVELED, SO THAT’S OUR FIRST PRIORITY. AFTER THAT, I THINK WE MIGHT HAVE INSULATION PROBLEMS IN ZETA. ALSO? THE FUCKING LOAD GAPER IN ALPHA KEEPS EXPLODING. WE’RE GOING TO NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THAT. HONESTLY I’LL JUST POST A MEMO LISTING ALL OF THE MISCELLANEOUS TRAGEDIES OCCURRING IN EACH CAN TOWN. THAT SEEMS LIKE THE BEST COURSE OF ACTION HERE.”

1. WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?

Um. Wow, sorry - that just kinda caught me off guard. But I’m Ralph. Wreck-It Ralph, but Ralph is fine. I don’t know if you have to put my full name down or…something.

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY???

Well, I’ve never done it but I could probably be a pretty good bouncer. Most people don’t want to mess with the nine foot tall guy. I mean, I’m nice an’ all but I’m used to playing the Bad Guy when I have to. Once I get a different job in this place I’ll chip in, too. Um…just generally helping out, I guess?

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING?

I’d be a volunteer I think, but I wouldn’t mind eating some of those hot dogs if that’s okay. It’s nice to just have somewhere to hang out and….y'know - help people for once, really.

“ACCEPTED. YOU WILL BE SAFE TO EAT HOT DOGS, BUT ONLY IF YOU PUT MORE BACK ON THE GRILL AFTER YOU EAT THEM. THOSE THINGS GO *FAST*. 

ANYWAY, YOU’RE GOING TO DO FINE, RON. JUST TRY TO MAKE PEOPLE FEEL AT HOME, AND BE COOL UNLESS SOMEONE IS BEING A HUGE DOUCHE. ALSO. I MIGHT HAVE YOU HELP WITH CONSTRUCTION, AND THE HIVEKEA FURNITURE??? THESE DIRECTIONS ARE BASICALLY USELESS, AND YOU LOOK LIKE YOU CAN FIGURE IT OUT.”

Heya, Citta community! Having a difficulty on tracking down what jobs are active in the group or not? Wanting your muse to get employed or open a business, but you wanna examine what’s already available first?

Then look no further than here! I’ve taken the work of jolting down every single currently active job at the community (that I know of) in a single page, to ease searching and whatnot. They’ve been catalogued by area and alphabetical order, with links provided to the job’s page (if existing) and the muse handling it.

(Disclaimer: I’ve made all of this out of my own initiative. If you’d like to have your job removed from the list, feel free to tell me so. In the same vein, if by some chance I missed a job and you’d like to have it included here, contact me with proper links. You can find me here or at Maya and Battler’s blogs, or on twitter.)

1. WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? 

Hi my name is Sayori! 

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY??? 

I’d like to think I’m pretty friendly so if you need someone to give others a warm welcome and show them around I can do that! I’m pretty new here to the city and I don’t really have any friends right now so…I guess I just really want someone to talk to? I can man the hot dawg stand too probably but um…I eat a lot. 

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING? DISCLAIMER: OUR REVENUE COMES FROM DONATIONS, AND TEN CENT SNACK FOODS. BUT YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN HOURS, AND YOU CAN EAT AS MANY HOT DAWGS AS YOU WANT. GO EASY ON THE MOUNTAIN LIGHTNING, IT’S PRETTY MUCH THE ONLY THING THAT KEEPS ME AWAKE SOMETIMES AND IF I GO DOWN THIS IS GOING TO BE A FUCKING SHIT SHOW.

I’m volunteering! Finding a paying job would be nice but I really just wanna help some people out and make friends!

“WELCOME ON BOARD THEN. IT’S OKAY IF YOU EAT A LOT, JUST MAKE SURE TO PUT MORE HOT DAWGS UP TO ROAST WHEN YOU’RE DONE. AND WE CAN HELP YOU FIND A JOB!!! THERE’S ACTUALLY A LIST OF THEM FLOATING AROUND HERE SOMEWHERE. ANYWAY. THANKS FOR SIGNING UP. WE’RE ALWAYS IN NEED OF FRIENDLY PEOPLE ON THE TEAM.”

@actuallymuffet said:  

“I’ve a delivery for you, here” And it was quite the delivery; Muffet herself held several boxes (the kind you’d get doughnuts in) stacked upon each other, and behind her two small legions of spiders each carried a stack of boxes too.

Each box held a good amount of various baked goods from her bakery, as fresh as they can be after the trip from there to here. “Someone else ordered this delivery, so don’t worry about payment. And then there’s some extra thrown in for free, too, because I like what you’re doing here. I can arrange for more deliveries every so often of leftover, unsold goods as well, so don’t expect this to be my last visit, deary.”

==> That is an actual giant spider-person. With two legions of spiders. Oh shit. Okay. Breathe. You nod, helping her ciphon the large stack of boxes into the lobby. Calm down, asshole! She’s friendly.

“THANKS! I’LL... MAKE SURE THESE GET TO ALL OF THE DISTRICTS. I MEAN THEY REALLY LOOK AMAZING.”  ==> And they really do! Maybe you’ll visit the Spider Bites Bakery sometime. If you can speak coherent sentences by then.

A few boxes of canned food, scarves and gloves are dropped where appropriate. He would stick around to deliver them in person, but he has work to attend. A note with the words "I'll bring more! SC" is taped to one of the boxes.

–「 You’re not sure what SC stands for, but you tack a note up on the drop off center’s bulletin board.」

[ @ SC, THANKS. PEOPLE DO GET TIRED OF HOT DAWGS EVENTUALLY. DON’T GET CARRIED AWAY WITH IT TO THE POINT IT PUTS YOU IN A BAD PLACE THOUGH. BUT WE APPRECIATE IT. - KARKAT ]

1. WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?

Dr. Spencer Reid… Do you always swear so much?

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY???

Maintenance (as needed) and cleaning. 

I’m an awful cook and honestly I’m not very intimidating. I also can knit some scarves, and blankets, as needed for this weather. (I’d also be more than willing to teach this skill to anyone interested in learning!)

3.DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING?

Volunteering. I think it’s a great thing you have going on. 

“IT IS A GREAT THING WE HAVE GOING ON. NOW WE JUST HAVE TO KEEP IT THAT WAY, AND MAKE IT BETTER. ANYWAY. THANKS FOR JOINING, FRIZZ. WE HAVE A LOT OF BLANKETS ALREADY, BUT IF YOU COULD GET STARTED ON KNITTING CLOTHES THAT WOULD BE GREAT. DON’T FORGET TO LEAVE HORN AND EAR HOLES IN SOME OF THEM! OCCASIONALLY, PEOPLE DO HAVE THOSE OR RANDOM FUCKING MEOWBEAST EARS JUST HANGING OUT.”

Payment won’t be necessary.

“I’M KARKAT, LEADER OF THIS OPERATION! WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU!? ANYWAY, YOU SEEM LIKE A HUGE ASSHOLE, BUT WE DON’T NEED OUR BOUNCERS TO BE FRIENDLY TO PEOPLE WHO ARE ALSO ASSHOLES! AND I’M THE BIGGEST ASSHOLE THERE EVER WAS, SO I GUESS YOU’LL FIT IN HERE JUST FINE. JUST DON’T BE AN ASSHOLE TO PEOPLE WHO AREN’T ASSHOLES FIRST, ASSHOLE!!!”

Callie Cuttlefish! 2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY???

I would be happy to provide security and run the hot dawg stand. I can also donate some space heaters.

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING?

I’m volunteering!

“YEAH. YOU LOOK LIKE YOU COULD ROUGH SOMEBODY UP IF WE NEEDED IT. OR ROUGH UP SOME HOT DAWGS. WHICHEVER HAPPENS FIRST, HONESTLY. ALSO, THANKS FOR THE SPACE HEATERS TOO. THE TOASTIER IN HERE THE BETTER. ANYWAY, CONSIDER YOURSELF HIRED. DON’T FORGET TO STOCK THE DRINK COOLER AND VENDING MACHINES TOO. DRY MOUTH AND HOT DAWG IS A FUCKING TERRIBLE COMBINATION.”

Olivia.

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY???

Well, I don’t know what a “hot dawg” is, but I can bake. You know, cakes, cookies, other desserts… And candy, too. I figured that people would be a little happier if they had something sweet to eat.

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING?

Oh, no, you don’t have to pay me! I’m happy to volunteer.

“WELL, WE NEED ALL THE HELP WE CAN GET, SO YOU’RE DEFINITELY ACCEPTED. BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY SAMPLES OF SAID DESSERT FOODS, I THINK I WOULD BENEFIT FROM PICKING WHICH ONES SHOULD GO OUT TO THE CAN TOWN STATIONS? JUST AS A QUALITY ASSURANCE MEASURE!”

Five boxes of dense winterwear jackets, in sparkling dark purple, lavender, and pink are left inside District Gamma's lounge. On top of one box is a card with a single gold star embossed on the back. On the front, it reads 'A gift. More will come, as it is needed. Grocery donations will come in time.'

–「 Oh wow. These are… really warm looking coats. You’re almost tempted to take one yourself, were it not for the absurd amount of sparkles on them. Still. Their fabulosity is wasted on you. You’ll get yourself a coat eventually.

You heft up the boxes yourself, adding the coats to the community closet, should anyone need them. You pin the card to the bulletin board, wondering just who the benefactor might be. You know these are ROYAL colors, and are clearly very expensive items. But you can’t connect the clues to anyone you know who would do something like this. 」

“THANKS, WHOEVER YOU ARE.IF YOU’RE STILL OUT THERE SOMEWHERE.”

1. WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?

I am Zelda, the princess of Hyrule. It is a pleasure!

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY???

I am able to do anything that needs to be done. While I am not the most skilled cook, I am able to sew and potentially alter or repair any clothing that needs it. I am also a fast learner, so there is no need to worry about teaching me! Once I see how things are done, I am confident I will be able to aid ‘Can Town’ to the utmost of my ability.

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING?

Please, I perish the thought of accepting money from such a wonderful place! In fact, I will try my best to obtain donations for 'Can Town’.

“WELL DON’T FUCKING ‘PERISH’ ON US. THAT’S PRETTY MUCH THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT WE’RE GOING FOR. THIS IS A DESIGNATED PERISH FREE ZONE, AND WILL STAY THAT WAY GIVEN THAT WE ALL PLAY OUR CARDS RIGHT. BUT WHATEVER YOU CAN DO TO HELP IS FINE. I MEAN, I SURE AS FUCK CAN’T SEW WORTH SHIT, SO HAVING HELP IN THAT DEPARTMENT IS FANTASTIC. 

ANYWAY, THANKS. I’LL PUT YOUR NAME DOWN TOO. HOT DAWGS ARE PRETTY EASY TO COOK BUT I’LL SHOW YOU AND EVERYONE ELSE, THAT WAY WE DON’T ACCIDENTALLY START A GREASE FIRE.”

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY??? Mostly bouncer work. My boyfriend used to live in Epsilon and it certainly wasn’t fun fussing about his wellbeing on a daily basis. Figure there’s other people like me and him out there. I suppose I could also help with the cooking if needed. Er, these hot ‘dawgs’ aren’t actually made of dog, are they?

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING? Volunteering

“THE PACKAGING IS ACTUALLY PRETTY UNCLEAR AS TO WHAT THEY’RE MADE OF. WHATEVER PORK IS, I THINK IT’S THAT? YOU DON’T HAVE TO EAT THEM IF YOU WANT. WE’RE WORKING ON MORE VEGAN OPTIONS, SINCE I GUESS VEGAN PEOPLE AREN’T REALLY *INTO* THE WHOLE HOT DAWG SCENE. IF YOU KNOW HOW TO VEGAN THAT WOULD BE HELPFUL.

ANYWAY. WELCOME TO CANTOWN. OUR GOAL IS TO KEEP PEOPLE AS SAFE AS POSSIBLE IN THE DISTRICTS UNTIL THEY CAN GET TO LIVING IN THE SLIGHTLY LESS TERRIBLE DEATHTRAP ABOVE GROUND. I’D START BUILDING FULL HIVESTEMS DOWN HERE IF I COULD, BUT I’M ONE KID.

OH. DON’T FIGHT ANYONE UNLESS THEY START HURTING PEOPLE OR BREAKING SHIT. THAT’S AN ORDER.”

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY??? 

- I’m happy enough to do any repairs that you need, I like keeping busy.

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING?

- The occasional hot dawg is plenty, man. 

“IF HOT DAWGS ARE WHAT YOU’RE AFTER, WE’RE IN NO FUCKING SHORT SUPPLY I’LL TELL YOU THAT MUCH. IT’S ACTUALLY KIND OF TROUBLING HOW THEY SELL FOR SO CHEAP? ANYWAY, WE COULD DEFINITELY USE YOUR HELP. SPECIFICALLY WITH THE TOILET IN GAMMA. IT KEEPS SHOOTING OUT WATER WHENEVER YOU FLUSH IT, AND TRUST ME I’VE TRIED EVERYTHING HIVESEARCH HAS TOLD ME! 

WE CAN WORK ON IT TOGETHER. ALSO? IF YOU’RE UP TO KILL VAGUELY MURDEROUS PLANTS, WE WILL DEFINITELY NEED PLANT EXTERMINATION IN ZETA. IT’S A NIGHTMARE.” “ANYWAY. WELCOME TO THE TEAM, I GUESS. HOT DAWGS ARE ON THE STAND SO HELP YOURSELF.”

Donation Form

@tailoredtokill

1. WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU?: Iori Shirou.

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY???: I own a custom boutique in Sector Six. Sometimes, we make too many clothes or someone doesn’t pick up an order, or items fall out of season. We’ll be happy to donate those clothes. I’ll try to send someone at the end of the week with a box for you. [True to his word, several boxes are here, mostly of jackets and other winter clothes. There are some items left over from summer.]

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING?: Don’t pay me. Keep it.

“!!!”

–「 Holy shit. That’s a lot of clothes! You should send a thank you letter out. Or stop by to say thank you? That’s something that’s good to do in this kind of situation, right? These are fancy as hell!!! You’re fashion blind, and even you can see that. 」

@vaikartana 1. WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU? 

Lancer class Servant, Karna.

2. WHAT ARE YOU PLANNING ON DOING? WHY??? 

I would be willing to multi-task if it becomes necessary. I… have been told I am not too great at cooking or cleaning, however. I don’t wish to receive a funder position, but I have spare enough money to donate and help improve the living conditions of those who turn to rely on this… ‘Can Town’. If you desire, I am also able to use my abilities and powers to protect this place, in case danger arises. However, that becomes limited to what my Master asks of me. I serve her before anything or anyone else.

3. DO I HAVE TO PAY YOU OR ARE YOU VOLUNTEERING?

Payment won’t be necessary. In fact, for as long as I am volunteering here, I would like to share my own money with the establishment. 

“YOU’RE HIRED, BUT MAKE SURE NOT TO GIVE US TOO MUCH OF YOUR INCOME, ALRIGHT? IF YOU NEED ANY HELP LEARNING HOW TO COOK OR CLEAN, DON’T BE AFRAID TO ‘AT’ ME, WHATEVER THAT MEANS. I’VE GOTTEN DECENT AT THE BASICS. 

ALSO? I’M GOING TO LIST YOU AS ‘ALL-PURPOSE’ VOLUNTEER. DON’T WORK TOO HARD. THANKS.”
