[It's actually a nice day out, today, and that's evident in this video when it starts. Several days of rain made for unpleasant traveling, but Jimmy was fine with staying in Azalea for a bit longer. It's a sleepy little town that he actually finds quite pleasant. He'd been so used to things just constantly happening, back home, so having long stretches of downtime like this had the tendency to make him restless. Traveling with someone helped to alleviate that, at least.
The dappled shadows cast across Jimmy's face and shoulders indicate how large the tree he's lounging under is, his Furret curled around his back to serve as a fuzzy cushion. He's not wearing his jacket for once since the rain finally decided to leave for a day, left in his usual green T-shirt, jeans, and sneakers. The shirt is obviously not the same as the one he arrived in, if the pokeball insignia on the pocket is anything to go by.
Next to him in the grass is a Treecko, peering up at him with wide, yellow eyes. She seems to be running on the idea that if she can't see Jimmy, he can't see her, making her perfectly camouflaged in the grass and at a perfect angle to pounce playfully on his fingers when he's not looking. He doesn't seem to mind it, though, wiggling them a little to encourage her as she rolls over with a squeak before bounding off and to hide in the taller grass again.
Jimmy seems a little subdued today. Not unhappy or upset at all, just...thoughtful. It's a little unusual for him, but he's had a lot of time to think while on the road again. He never aged back home, so now that a year's gone by, time really seems to be flying in Johto.
After a moment he talks, not looking at the screen just yet.]
So there's somethin' I've been wondering about, lately. Back home in Miseryville, I never really...
[He pauses, trying to find the right words.]
...I never really did anything, yaknow? Like I mean- my friend Heloise worked as an inventor and helped design pretty much all the products sold back home. My friend Beezy...well, he didn't do much either, but his dad rules everything so he's gonna end up taking his job one day anyway, so he doesn't really have to do anything yet, I guess. Molotov's a body guard, Samy's a secretary guy...
I did have little jobs sometimes. Like, I was a product tester once...and then I worked as a cook at a restaurant for a little while. But other than stuff like that, I never really had anything I was known for. I guess it's just kinda weird to think about that, since I work with the Circus here...that's pretty much what I've done since I got here.
So, I guess I wanted to ask you guys what you do, back home? Did you have any cool jobs or businesses that you ran? Maybe just a hobby or something? If you wanna talk to me about it, I'm not really doing anything today.
[He turns to watch the Treecko jump at his hand again before switching off the feed.]

[That said, she's still quick to find excuses to return to Jimmy (for a few reasons), so some time after he's sent out his message, when she's seen it, she sprints through the town to find him, her Eevee and Zorua excitedly in tow.]
[She just kinda skids to a halt and drops onto her knees next to him when she does find him, out of breath but smiling.]
Hi!
[... for like the third time today, probably!]

You work at a CIRCUS and you're askin' if anyone else has any cool jobs?! There's no com-bear-ison, you've reached the highest height of the cool job ladder!!
[Video]
Well, I mean jobs back home! I didn't work at the Circus until I got here!

[Has he ever told Jimmy the exact name? Joker can't quite recall. There's a pause as he debates something before deciding... Well. It couldn't hurt. He's known Jimmy long enough.]
Did some butler work, too, from time ta time. I ever tell ya that?

[Both the names Noah's Arc and Eve's Garden have zero meaning to Jimmy, ironically enough...but he finds himself liking the sound of both, regardless.]

[Then again, if those friends of his are the same age...]
I'm a spaceship captain, a mobile suit pilot, and an amateur engineer. It's fulfilling and challenging work, but I have to admit that it didn't lead to a lot of job offers for me around here.
[video]
...Beezy's age is a bit more questionable, though.]
Woooooah... that's seriously your job!? That's the coolest thing I've ever heard!
[Probably because Jimmy's current dream job is to be a pilot.]

[
Until Teddie started shouting about it.]I sort of worked for the government back at home. I guess that's interesting.
[Perry may or may not be being purposefully modest.]

[He doesn't even mind plugging the circus whenever he can; it deserves all the business it gets.]
Woah, the government? That sounds pretty important.
What kind of stuff did you do?

[Does that even still count here? Because he's been in this place for so long, Atsuro no longer looks like a high school student.]
But I'm known for being a nerd and a programmer in training! I'm planning on heading into the IT industry, but, well, I end up here instead.
[Video]
[Though, it's actually not that part of what Atsuro says that's got his attention.]

not exactly the coolest job, I suppose but I can tell you it's never a dull moment!

No, I don't think so! It sounds cool, though...
Can you tell me more about it?

[Seriously, where the fuck did you even live? Alternate-universe Detroit?]
There's not too much of a problem with not being known for anything, anyway. You're still a kid, right? It's good that you've got something here, but you've got a while to figure yourself out back home.
audio
Haha, yeah, I guess so! I did tell Lucius once that I thought it'd be better if we changed the name to something nicer like "Happyville", but he didn't really like the idea all that much.
Hmm...you're probably right. Yaknow, I never even thought about what I'd wanna do back home until I got here. ...Well, I'd really REALLY like to be an airplane pilot one day, though, so I guess that's something!

[ Serah thinks on his question, and it's one with a pretty long answer. ]
I traveled a lot--place to place, even through time. Before then, though, I was a teacher for a small, seaside town. It was nice. And, of course, I took care of most of the cats there.
no subject
[Jimmy gasps softly.]
Aw, that does sound nice!
Through time, though... how did that happen?

I didn't really get to do much back home, myself. Princess stuff really isn't all it's cracked up to be, as long as we're honest! It was actually kinda boring, being stuck in the castle all the time...

[Jimmy pauses, his smile brightening even further.]
Oh wow...you'd think being a Princess would be, like, pretty much a dream job, though!
