Roxas spread his hands about the paper he put onto the stone wall making sure the paper stuck from corner to corner. Down the winding sidewalk behind him was a speckled trail of the same posters on light posts, walls, and pretty much anything else that had a surface.

The morning had long past worn on into mid afternoon, he had after all been doing this a little after the sun had risen. Wiping the sweat from his face onto the collar of the white shirt he wore, Roxas looked behind him remember how he had thought he would never be able to put over one hundred over the town of Balamb without having one being too close to the other. Now everyone who wasn't already awake would find the flyers giving the date and location of the airship auction coming up in the coming weeks.

Feeling thankful he decided not to wear his jacket, Roxas hopped down from the ledge next to the wall landing on the sidewalk below. He put his foot on the skateboard he had acquired the previous day for helping a nice lady with some outdoor chores. In lieu of getting paid in cash, she had offered him an old skateboard stashed in her attic. Apparently her son had something much better called a hover board and never even thought of the old skateboard, which was now just taking up space and collecting dust. Giving the skateboard an appraising look, Roxas hopped onto it and began making his way back to the man who gave him the flyer job. He stopped just outside a small community building that had a quaint teller window at the entrance.

"Hey, I was here earlier-"

The guy inside had on glasses and long shaggy hair. "Oh yeah, poster boy." he said, a breathy laugh accompanied the last words. "Yeah, thanks man, that was really cool of you." and then after a few moments. "Oh right" Haha. Cash, right?" he asked rhetorically. He put a clip holding some money. "Here you go, knock yourself out, buy your girlfriend something nice, all right. Catch you later." he said returning back to his work.

"Thanks." Roxas said as he thumbed through the money as he began skating, not watching where he was going. These jobs where how he made whatever money he could get his hands on. It really helped on his blind Valentine's date, the roses he had purchased came to the total of three jobs he had to do, all in one day.
