[ JOB LISTING ] Pet Grooming
[ DIFFICULTY LEVEL ] gaia_star gaia_star
[ TASK ] You've been asked to help with the pet grooming. "They come to us so they can look their very best!"
It's easy. Just bathe and dress the pet.

Step 1: BATHING: Roll 1 d4 to see how the bathing goes. Match the roll to the number below.


  1. OH NO. This little critter is a feisty one. It snaps and barks and bites at you. "Aw, look at how excited it is to go to the PARTY!!!" Allen is standing over your shoulder. If you complain about the pet biting you, he places a hand on your shoulder and solemnly says, "Be strong. Let your battle spirit win him over."

  2. This little critter is not bitey at all, but boy-oh-boy, is it energetic. The moment you have it's fur all covered in soap it knows. It makes a break for it, slipping out of your grasp and across the store, a barking, soapy, wet ball of fur. "A noble steed!" You hear Allen yell from another direction.
    Roll 1 d6 until you roll even. When you roll even you catch the critter. For every odd you roll, Allen gives you a should of encouragement. "Keep trying! Defeat the evil of your doubt! Believe it!"

  3. You make it through the bathing okay, but as you turn your back to grab the towel, the critter jumps off the table and heads straight for an enclosure holding several snakes. Roll 1 d6 until you roll even. When you roll even you successfully rescue the beast from the snake enclosure. Every time you roll odd Allen gives you pep talk: "Believe in yourself! Believe in the me that believes in you!"

  4. No matter how hard you try, you can't seem to get this pet clean. If you tell Allen this, he will give you a speech about how what really matters is our heart. "Two hearts must beat as one. Once it's heart is clean, it's mind and body will be clean as well." He gives you a GREAT BIG BEAR HUG just to show you how it's done. You can't breathe. You think your ribs might be broken. "Now you know how much I believe in you!"
    You decide that maybe the pet is just the color of soot naturally.


Step 2: DRESSING UP: This part is simple. Choose an outfit for your critter from the pile at the grooming station.

Roll 1 d10 to see how hard of a time you have getting the pet into the costume. 1 is easy, 10 is very, very hard.
No matter your troubles - be assured Allen is there to yell encouraging words. "You can do this!" Really Allen, it's okay to not yell so loud.

Working in the pet store had been easy enough the first time around, despite the oddity that was the task and the owner. (It was hard to gather what kind of front it could be besides mini pet smuggling or something, but there had to be something up with that Allen). And as Sheldon expected to find himself wrangling a fish again, he found himself with a different task.

Grooming pets. His eye twitched as he was herded towards that particular section of the store where little sinks and tables had been set up at the disposal of the groomers on hand. He was set right in front of a toothy looking ball of fluff. Those large tusks, he found, were not just meant for show as the thing attempted to take a bite out of him with those and its little mouth full of additional tiny sharp teeth. He managed to recoil his hand in time before it was ensnared.

Allen seemed to find it amusing, exclaiming some asinine thing about the fluff which Sheldon promptly ignored to get to work. Or tried to, he visibly twitched when he felt that hand on his shoulder and grumbled as he tried to shake it off. Win the thing over.

He bared his own teeth and hissed at the fluff, trying to show superiority. (He might have also held up the scissors to scare the thing).

After getting the thing all nice and clean, Sheldon sighed annoyed that they were now meant to dress it in tiny little outfit. Well, he really couldn't complain about that, could he, with the amount he typically wore.

He was more put out over the additional task. His hands were all soapy, as well as bits of his clothes where water had splashed.

Urg, whatever. He reached into the bin and grabbed the obnoxiously orange jacket that seemed a little familiar (wasn't this from a Japanese cartoon?). The difficulty of putting the garment on the little creature was more getting around its thick tufts of hair, it thankfully didn't fuss too much for fear of the scissors. (Allen was ignored through the whole process). But a little bit of flattening down and Sheldon managed to get it in the outfit picked out.

Done and done, Sheldon held his hands out to relinquish claim over his project and went to collect his pay.
