[Roddy looked awkward. He'd been playing a soothing melody on his violin while waiting for his dad to get back. Perhaps it was a bit too soothing? Either way, a head on his shoulder was too much of a distraction to keep going.
Either way, he assumed this guy was one of the ones coming by to see about work. After being arrested and getting a concussion in jail, Ephram Geiger decided he could use an extra hand or two to help out with Geiger Pest Control while he sorted everything out and recovered.]
[ Charlie likes music and it's been so soothing that he just nodded off after a few minutes of violin play. Not a very good thing when you're hoping for a job!
He glances up, drowsily, before flashing the other male a nervous grin. ]
Sorry about that, dude! Had a- a long day bashing rats at Paddy's. [ He smoothes his messy hair down and offers a grubby hand. ]
Charlie Kelly! I'm a- a professional janitor, bird lawyer and rat bashing expert.
[Roddy actually grimaced at the offered hand, not because of the filth, but because of the explanation leading up to the offered hand giving him a hint as to what that filth might be. Still, to Roddy's credit, he did shake the hand, though he wiped it off on his jeans shortly after.]
And I don't think you'll actually be expected to do...rat bashing. Dad mostly uses live traps.
[After a moment, the rest of the things Charlie said sink in.]
(This is one of the things Metody hates about the subway.)
(After a few moments if waiting for him to wake up on his own, Metody gently pushes him away and forward, aiming for him to slump over the back of the seat in front of them.)
