She thought for a moment. "Around 80k? That sounds about right."

I stared at her. "Per /decade/?"

2015-11-08 09:24:56

"No, per year. She was a senior editor at a publishing company."

"Holy shit. And your dad was, what, a stay-at-home??"

2015-11-08 09:27:01

●

"No. He was a fashion designer."

2015-11-08 09:27:22

"...........screw accounting. I'm going into fashion design."

"It's not that great."

2015-11-08 09:28:16

"Then editing it is."

2015-11-08 09:28:37

●

"Neither is that."

2015-11-08 09:28:55

🌀

"Neither is accounting, and I barely got paid for that."

"You're an intern. You make minimum wage."

"Made. I couldn't go to work for a month, remember?"

2015-11-08 09:30:35

●

"Oh. Right. Still. You weren't /exactly/ an accountant."

"I knew what I was doing, if I'd just been able to actually exist before the age of 25 then I'd have had a real job."

"Hm....What about modeling? You could easily be a model."

2015-11-08 09:34:27

🌀

"...what? I mean, I care about my appearance, but I don't look /that/ good." Inwardly, I was screaming. A model? She thought I could /easily/ be a model?

"It's not just the appearance, it's the face as well."

2015-11-08 09:37:27

🌀

"You think my face is model-worthy?"

2015-11-08 09:40:58

●

"Yes."

2015-11-08 09:42:01

🌀

"....hm...maybe I'll look into that." Wow. Okay. I know I used to go on with 'yes of course I'm attractive', but that was mostly just flirting.

"It's New York City. There are tons of places that will probably accept you even without experience. I looked into it myself, but I'm too short."

2015-11-08 09:48:53

🌀

"That sounds more than a little sketchy."

2015-11-08 09:55:06

●

"It's New York? Everyone is looking for someone attractive."

"I'm definitely not becoming a prostitute."

"Don't. You probably can't afford condoms and STI testing."
