Fifth Day.
I know that no one knows me yet. I'm called Piece, and this is my first time writing in this journal, even though I've been here for a few days already. I think I was 'finding my feet'. I know that I have to be dependable and find a job soon, and I was thinking of trying a

There are many jobs in housekeeping. I'm sure someone will be able to assist you, if that's what you'd like.

And it's good to meet you, Piece. I'm Raise.

And she's right- if you wish to look a the sun, be wary so as to not stare into it.

[a_missing_piece]

Housekeeping. Thank you. I'll definitely look into it.

It's nice to meet you, Raise. What do you do as a job?

The brightness can damage the eyes, I'm assuming? It makes sense not to stare at something that bright head on.

[subject_e0057]

I work in the marketplace, at a food stand.

Yes. Only if you look for too long- but if you stare for a few moments, when you look away, you'll see spots.

[a_missing_piece]

That must be a nice job. Do you get to eat stuff for discounts, or do you still have to pay full for it?

Oh, okay. Yeah, that makes sense. I kind of like looking at it, even if it does strain my eyes after a while. I won't stare at it needlessly though, because that'd be stupid.

Ah... Well... my other half has a tendency of taking things from the shop without even asking... So even if we were granted a discount, I would rather not ask for it.

That's good.

[a_missing_piece]

Ummm, your other half? [a pause] Like your spouse or something?

[subject_e0057]

...Ah?!

Er- no, no. No. It's difficult to explain. We're two consciousnesses sharing a body.

[a_missing_piece]

Oh! Dissociative identity disorder, or the earlier termed multiple personality disorder? I've heard of it before; I'm sorry for assuming..

[subject_e0057]

...Actually, yes. You're quite knowledgeable. And don't be sorry for anything- this makes things easier to explain.

[a_missing_piece]

I read about it before or I'm pretty sure I did at least. Wow. Is it hard to deal with?

[subject_e0057]

It can be frustrating at times. But I'm adapting.

What about yourself? How are you liking the Sphere so far?

[a_missing_piece]

Well, as long as it doesn't interfere too horribly with your daily life, I think you should be okay, right? Then again, all I know is objective information on the disorder, not anything like first hand experience again, I think.

I think I'm doing okay. It's really big, and I get lost when wandering around sometimes, but it's not bad here. I kind of want gravity to come back though.
