[ Kid has the job of washing windows this month, and while he's been doing an excellent job -- each completed window shines and sparkles without the hint of smudge -- it also takes him a long, long time to get it right to his satisfaction. So much so that temporary employer has stepped in, and the Guide picks up some of that conversation. ]

So...

[ Ahhh hurrying straight over. ]

The windows you have washed are absolutely spotless. That is something to be proud of.

[ What a strange boy.

But no comment. Just a stare. And a tea sip. ]

[A boy who dresses symmetrically and has three stripes in his hair... She's going to plop down right next to the ball of emo right now, tail wagging.]

[grimreaping]

[ it takes less than a minute for something to register in Kid's brain about the four legged figure next to him... so startled that he actually forgets (briefly, it'll return) what he's upset about ]

You're...

[motherofthesun]

[She stares at him. Another not-human.]

Hello.

[grimreaping]

[ sits up and arranges himself neatly (symmetrically) before replying ]

Hello.

[ineuphony]

So there you are.

[ has completely forgotten by now that they are "fighting" ]

Maka, these people don't appreciate quality work!

Re: VIDEO;

[ineuphony]

Maybe you should consider cleaning them in a faster pace?

[grimreaping]

But then they might be incompletely washed and how can I tell that supervisor that I completed my work if there might be any smudges or streaks left on the windows?!

[ action! ]

[fujimoto_shiro]

Dear, me. That was a bit harsh.

[ Shiro was simply passing by, still getting used to these new surroundings. And its denizens, as well! He couldn't help but to notice the exchange between the employer and this young man... most especially, the young man's reaction. He stood near this young man, looking over toward the windows, his hand rest beneath his own chin as he looked over the handiwork. ]

There, there now. You did well!

[ action! ]

[grimreaping]

You... you really think so?

[ action! ]

[fujimoto_shiro]

I know good work and effort when I see it!

[grimreaping]

Thank you!

[ starts feeling better; he KNEW he wasn't doing a bad job! that supervisor was just... just picky! too picky! ]
