Welcome to Gaia! ::

It wasn't all that hard for Fred o what Melvin had asked him to. The toughest part had been enduring the awkwardness of dealing with his pale creepy friend who lectured him on how important it would be to keep the place spotless and how he'd know if he didn't. He needed him to open the door so he could get Melvin's things. When he left he'd been glad to depart. The guy had seemed friendly enough but something had felt fundamentally off with him.

Either way he had set off with a guide down to Atlantis, the sun hunter dropping him off at the route which led to the pool room and he surfaced not long after and pulled himself out of the water. Everything in this place was a ******** adventure, even delivering s**t to prospective employers.

Fred had decided before he even went down to the bottom of the ocean that around Melvin he was going to maintain an impeccable poise and that he’d be just as capable as Tom could be.

“Certainly.” He said with a grin, handing over the bag which he’d filled with all the things Melvin had asked for along with a neat container of freshly made food that Lawrence had asked him to bring.

“And it’s no trouble sir.” He said “I am more than willing to turn my hand to anything you might require.”

It took a lot of effort to keep the casual slang out of his voice, the desire to put the word mate at the end of everything difficult to suppress.

“Your employment after all is a gift to me.”

"I completely understand." Fred said with a bright smile. "Atlantis is important, and it is fortunate it's in capable hands."

He stepped aside and let Melvin look through the package, satisfied that everything should be present and correct and neatly packed.

"The tupperware containers are from Mr Michaels." he said. "He said he'd made something for you to eat and requested I bring it here."

He nodded. "I'm grateful for the payment m....sir. And don't concern yourself, I was around Mr Michaels for a while gathering the items you requested and we got along just fine. He's a little unusual and likes to criticise what I am doing but I won't rise to a fight with him while I am on duty, you have my word."

He shrugged. "Wasn't difficult, I think I would be fine repeating the journey whenever. I'm pretty fit, was just like a run, good bit of exercise."
