Yuuichirou looked at the clock and yawned. It was amazing he had only been there for then minutes and already he was bored. Nothing to do until the interns came and it was their spring break. Mejin came in stretching and yawning five minutes later.
"You're late," Yuuichirou said.
Mejin shrugged, "What does it matter?"
"Not much," Yuu admitted.
Both men sighed and looked at their computers. "Long day, huh?" asked Mejin.
Yuu gave a short laugh, "Yeah, no kidding. Wonder what project we'll do today?"
Mejin looked thoughtful, "We could try and find out why Rockman and Netto reached full syncro in Crossfusion in the fight against Laserman," Mejin suggested.
Yuuichirou looked startled and Mejin noted his response. "Unless you already know why," he added.
"Of course not! Said Yuu a little too quickly. "And they haven't done it since, so it doesn't really matter."
Mejin decided to lave that topic alone for another day and once again both men at in silence.
"Yuu?" Mejin asked.
"Yeah?" came the reply.
"I'm bored," Mejin said.
Yuu chuckled, sometimes he thought Mejin hung out with Netto too much.
"Well, aren't you?"
"Yes, but it's not like we can really do anything about it," Yuu said.
Mejin breathed out a long sigh, "When I was little I always told myself I'd be my own boss so I would never have to do anything I didn't want to. I got there and I'm starting to regret it," he said.
Yuu laughed, "Being your own boss is hard, huh?" he asked jokingly.
Mejin growled, "I'm serious! Think about it, if we had bosses at least we'd be doing something!"
Yuuichirou opened his mouth to reply but a call came in on the main channel. Netto's face showed up and he started to talk very fast, "Mejin-san, I need…" he looked at his dad, "papa?" he asked. Yuu nodded. "What are you doing there, isn't your office upstairs?" he asked. Then there was a loud explosion behind him.
"In trouble are you?" Mejin asked.
Netto nodded sheepishly, "Yeah, can you send a Dimensional Area?" he asked.
Mejin nodded and the screen went blank. Mejin pressed the red button and the converters hummed to life. He set to work maintaining them to make sure they didn't overheat. He chanced a glance at Yuu who looked a little pale. "You okay?" he asked.
Yuuichirou smiled, "I'm fine, need help?"
Mejin nodded, "Sure, it's only 10:05 after all."
Some days at Sci-Labs gave whole new meaning to the term, "Long Day."
