Working on a new business

[edgeoftheknife]

Hi all! JC here, and I know I've talked about this a bit on plurk but I wanted to make an official posty type thing about it: Erskine is in the process of buying and renovating a building in the Earth Sector to open as a homeless shelter. It'll mostly be for the kedan, although he won't turn away Foreigners who need a temporary place to crash or who are going through bad circumstances.

The renovating part is going to be done largely during fourth wall, because the manual labor will be a good excuse for Erskine and his castmates to work through some of their many, many issues. Because working their aggression out through manual labor kinda beats them punching each other repeatedly... although let's be real, that's gonna happen too. After the building is ready there should still be some opportunities to help get things set up, however, and once the shelter opens Erskine is certainly going to need some help!

I'm tentatively looking at having him open the shelter early next month, and using the tail end of this month to get the last few things in place for opening. This also means he's no longer going to be living/working at the Hotel WHICH I'M REALLY STUPIDLY SAD OVER BUT. He'll be living at the shelter full time, in his own private room, and he'll be acting as security as well as overseeing things.

If anyone would be interested in having their character volunteer/work at the shelter, or maybe help with getting investors/donations, or even helping out with public relations, we can toss some ideas around? That's why I wanted to get this idea out there, so people can plan accordingly.

Cheers!
