"Taisa?"

"…"

"Taisa."

"…"

"Taisa!"

"…? Ah… Chuui."

"You really shouldn't fall asleep at your desk, taisa."

"Sorry."

"…Well, did you finish the report that's due in twenty minutes? I was going to take it down to accounting and records now, if it's possible."

"Yeah, sure…"

"And, here are the new forms that need to be filled out on the regulations of the new fire department."

"Gotcha."

"And these need to be filled out regarding Scar's disappearance."

"Hmm."

"And those forms I gave you yesterday are needed by General Gallick by three PM tomorrow."

"Ah."

"Do you remember anything I told you, sir?"

"Huh?"

"Really, taisa…"

"Ne, chuui?"

"What is it?"

"Where's everyone else?"

"On their break, sir."

"Why do they get a break?"

"Because they finished their paperwork."

"Oh. Why don't you get a break?"

"I already finished my break."

"Ah. Ever efficient, are we?"

"As much as possible, sir."

"Good. I like that."

"It's only because it's impossible to get you to do it yourself."

"Now, chuui, I could report that as insubordination."

"I doubt that sir."

"Hahahah… more than likely you're right. I haven't read the damned manual on what I can and can't do in a few years."

"Perhaps you should."

"Maybe I will."

"So, is that everything I need, chuui?"

"Yes, sir."

"Ah… Good. A lighter pile then."

"If that's all sir, then I'll be going."

"Ok. Let me know if anything pops up."

"I will, sir."

"… Hawkeye-chuui…?"

"Hmm?"

"… Nevermind."
