Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket
I was flipping
I was flipping through old threads and I came upon this, posted by Nina:A long time ago there was something called the TCCP, which stood for The Cricket Currency Project. Chatterboxers could set up their own "stores" like your store here, and "restaurants" and other Chatterboxers could buy things from the store and eat at the restaurants. There was a bank, a mall, and even a business directory for all of the TCCP businesses.
I think TCCP sounds like a ton of fun, and we should restart it. Anyone with me? If people say they are I'll post my shop.

Could you link the old thread?

Sounds fun! I'll set up a pancake buffet restaurant called "Piles 'o Pancakes!" This'll be so cool!

I am totally up for this! I think Darth Kitty ran a grocery store a long time ago. I might run a clothing shop. Is that ok?
(May 2, 2017 - 5:16 pm)
Sounds good! I'll run a 5 star restaurant!

That'd be cool! My CB self is pretty poor, so I could use a shop or something of the like. I used to work in the Chatterbox Café, but it was shut down :(
Yeah, we live in an old storage room in the basement of of the main library here in the CB. We haven't got much to sell... Maybe we could work somewhere? Or sell a trade?
Hey, Jammira, you're good at drawing. We could sell you're art on the side of the rode until we can afford an actual shop.
When we do, maybe it could be a small coffee shop... I like how cozy those are. Perhaps in the chillier parts of the CB, near where Icy lives.
Yeah, but for now we need to raise the cash. I'll start drawing. Embers, can I have that pen you got from Bluebird during a CB gift exchange?
The magic one?
Yep.
Sure, I guess. But first we'll have to ask if AEs are allowed.
Are they?
(May 2, 2017 - 6:26 pm)
AEs are allowed, as long as they don't get too out of hand. Mostly post as yourself please. Also, I'm going to start a bakery and I'll sell your art on my walls if you want.
I couldn't find the thread I found before, but I did find the real TCCP thread! http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/chirpatcricket/node/67196

I would LOVE to join in! I'll post what I'm doing later.
Also can AEs join in or nah? If not, we should make one just for CAPTCHAs and AEs!

I'll run a book store!
(May 2, 2017 - 8:52 pm)
I can be the local cartoonist and comic writer!
OMG NO JOKE ELENA JUST SAID hccc. Do you have the hiccups?
(May 2, 2017 - 8:59 pm)
I can be an art commisioner, like Lucy.
She's technically not a commisioner, but I guess she does that. Anyway, I can host a TV show. My dad IS Mettaton. . .
I can teach music! Either that or I'm just a crazy mucician you would see at the side of th road.
(May 2, 2017 - 9:04 pm)
Yes! This sounds fun!
I'll be the manager of the town beach and yacht club, if that's okay!
Me too!
Sane AEs, do you want to start a library?
(May 3, 2017 - 5:37 am)
I'll join!
Random Person's Random Oddities
You look up and see a creaky, wooden sign, swinging in the wind. It says Random Person's Random Oddities. The shop looks notoriously dodgy, it's front door is shabby and the plaster is peeling. There's one window looking into the tiny shop and the curtains are closed. You hesatintly open the door with a squeak and creak and step insied the shop. The door squeaks back into its position with its hinges looking grumpy. You ask yourself why hinges can look grumpy.
The shop is cozy and cluttered. You see some wands in one corner, and some dragon scales in another. A sign that says We accept Galleons, Sickles, and Knuts only hangs above the counter. There's an array of minature dragons on the counter. Sudddenly, a head pops from under the counter. You scream. "Sorry! I was organizing my apothecary ingredients!" the person apologizes.
She has a striking resemblence to Murtagh, except for a small scar across her cheek. You stare at the scar. She sees you and says, "Oh, I got that when trying to get a unicorn hair for my wands."
The shopowner's wearing wizarding robes with a butterbeer cork necklace and radish earrings. Her hair is bubblegum pink. "Welcome to Random Person's Random Oddities! So, what would you like?" she asks.
"We sell everything! From Camp Half-Blood necklaces to the Quibbler! We also sell Quidditch balls, minature dragons, brooms, wizarding staffs, elf bows, dwarf axes, assorted weapons, and magical artifacts! There's even pets!" she smiles.
