Hit 007 ~ [Action/Dictated after Action Filter]

[Church Action Filter]

[There's a lot of mess in Rocco's room as he's digging through drawers and cupboards, looking for something pretty frantically.]

Connor? Murph? You guys seen my--?

[And that's cut off when he draws out an envelope with his name on out of a drawer. Curious, he opens it, and his eyes widen.]

No fuckin' way, man. No fuckin' way.

[There's some rustling on the other side of the journal, before the clearing of a throat.]

So, uh... When Barney Stinson left, apparently, I got the deeds to his coffee shop, WildKat.

I'm, uh, gonna be keeping it goin'. Anyone used to work there? I'll give you your jobs back, no problem. And, if not, I gotta have some help. I ain't really cut out for runnin' a business by myself...

Name's Rocco, by the way. I live down in the church in town with the MacManuses, if anyone wants to come speak to me in person.

[Murph's voice drifts in from the kitchen] Yer what? Yer dignity?

[midhitgrope]

[There's no response, only a stunned sorta silence coming from the room as he just... stares at the peice of paper in his hand.]

[Connor playfully smacks Murph's arm with the back of his hand.]

Why'd he be lookin' fer somethin' he never had?! [he cracks up.]

[midhitgrope]

Will you two get your fuckin' asses in here instead of cacklin' like emerald hyenas?!

[This is serious, guys.]

[spiritusaequitas]

Emerald -- !

[Murph shoots Connor a distinct "WHERE THE FUCK DOES HE COME UP WITH THIS SHITE" look, then shrugs and heads toward Rocco's room]

[midhitgrope]

[You don't want to know. Either way, he's walking slowly towards the door, still staring all stunned-like at the paper.]

[shepherdsveritas]

[Connor shrugs and gives Murph a mirror of that look before following]

What's got y'so worked up, Roc?

[midhitgrope]

Uh...

[Looking up from the paper.]

I own a coffee shop.

[thebutz]

Hey, I didn't know he had a coffee shop! I could use a job! What are the requirements?

dictated

[midhitgrope]

Uh...

[Oh god, this is the first time he's done this.]

I dunno. What can ya do? Got any experience in working in a coffee shop?

[thebutz]

I can do everything! Never worked in a coffee shop but I sold hot dogs once, close enough right?

[midhitgrope]

Well, uh, we can see about gettin' you some training. I'm new to this shit, too, man.

[thebutz]

Alright sure. When is it?

[midhitgrope]

Well, I gotta get everything sorted. A few weeks? I'll throw another announcement when I'm ready.

[thebutz]

Alright, I'll try to keep an eye out! Thanks man!

[sexyhitchhiker]

Yeah, I used to work there. I'm Natsuki.

dictated

[midhitgrope]

Nice to meet ya.

[A pause.]

Well, if you want your old job back, you can have it. I'll need some experienced guys to help me out with this shit, man.

[sexyhitchhiker]

I'll take it. Got nothing better to do most of the time, anyway.

[a pause] Barney didn't leave any instructions or anything?

[midhitgrope]

Not that I can see.

Think you'd be up for training?

[sexyhitchhiker]

[sigh]

Sure. Just don't hire any idiots.

[midhitgrope]

Idiots, how?

[There's more than one type of idiot... And Rocco's probably one of them.]

[heloise]

Are you family then?

[midhitgrope]

Family? Of who?
