What? Isn't charity supposed to be a decent thing for you people... and anyway, we don't even have money here, how are you going to run more of a business if the whole point of it doesn't exist?
Had. I told them they couldn't keep staying here. I thought maybe they'd leave after a night, and then it continued, and then they didn't take the hint when I kept taking down their blanket forts so I finally got to talk to them and tell 'em to clear out.
[ and that conversation was annoying and it's such a minor thing to be annoyed about, but it was still weird. ]
Apparently the rooms aren't up to their standards. [ which like. fine, but also. ] Pretty sure they are camping outside now... ? I didn't bother asking. But is it really that big of a deal? When someone asks you to get out of their house because you didn't sign up for extra roommates, you just say yes. That's it.
[ they would also like to know why their bar, but it's fine. it is fine. ]
This goes back to the bar not being a charity. Yes, it's open 24/7. Yes, you don't have to pay for it. Yes, there's self-service. But it's not a place to sleep and I still live here, so I feel like I've got a little wiggle room here for setting rules.
You know, it'd be a real shame if someone who still owns a bunch of water balloons happened to be tipped off about who's been a dick to the person making her drinks...
Finally got to confront 'em about it that first Thursday all the doors locked and none of us could leave. I'm not even against blanket forts as a concept, just. Not in my house. Not in my bar. Whatever. Elsewhere.
[ oh, that makes sense. ]
The kiosk over in the convenience store? Yeah, I'm kinda surprised overnight shipping reaches all the way across heaven but guess it's one of those little miracles.
Yeah, online shopping was kind of one of the most useful things where I was from. Not that I used it much, but everything being free helps. Pretty sure you're not that limited either. You know. In case you run out of balloons.

By not letting people live here and then having to argue my point why they shouldn't live in a business I'm running... ?

You think I can't fight my own battles? [ it's a joke, but. ] It'd be a real shame after Daigo came and apologized on behalf of him and that Goro guy.
[ a pause. ]
Where did you even get water balloons?

[heeeelp. she's just bursting into laughter.]
Figured they'd be too old for that shit, but I guess people always surprise you!
[as for the balloons-]
We've got some kind of shopping service? Pretty handy.
