Bermuda helps Yoyo the bar owner ✨️

Yoyo:"Thanks for helping me bring in the stock for tonight."
Bermuda:"Well yeah, you need a strong ghoul to help you move all this fancy liquor!"
Y:"Oh yeah?"

B:"But seriously, you gave us a shot so we could play and gain an audience, even if it's small right now."
Y: "Well yeah, you guys kick ass, bring in way more business then we've had in ages, and make my shifts way more fun. Plus..."

Y: "You have a beautiful voice, Bermuda."

B: "OKAYTHANKSIHAVETOGOGETREADYWITHTHEOTHERSFORT9NIGHTBYEEEEEE!!!!..."

A stylized illustration of a bipedal mostly yellow and orange shih tzu dog character, Isabelle, from Animal Crossing. She wears a reddish-brown long cardigan, plaid light brown long skirt, a brown blouse, and beige socks with brown boots. She wears a matching reddish-brown beret hat.

She sports brown, thin-rimmed circular glasses. In her paws, she's holding a coffee cup with steam coming out of it.

Background is light brown/beige with a muted light green floral texture over top. The background is a red stitch thread border with a little bow tied at the top.

BY THE WAY

If you've updated to Windows 11 recently, you're probably on version 25H2.

There's a new setting in Settings: Privacy & Security.

Scroll aaaaaaaalll the way to the bottom and you'll see "Text and Image Generation."

TURN IT OFF.

You don't make anyone do anything. You care about your OC. That's it that all. 🤷🏽‍♀️
