[A small cry of shock can be heard.]

I-it zapped me! That's the first time it's done that; clearly, I have not been fulfilling the scientists' arbitrary communication requirements. There's not much to say, in all honesty. I know there's been...dangerous events occurring lately, but I'm quite content to stay here

Cut yer ha'r?

[notmanaging]

[She immediately fingers the ends of her hair, even though she knows he can't see her.]

Y-yes, I did. I was hoping to provide the same service to others, but...not many seemed interested at the time.

[rules_the_north]

't 's yer job 't home?

[notmanaging]

...Not quite. I was employed in the entertainment industry.

[bubbleteatime]

Wait, wait. Can you go back to that part about hair-cutting, please?

[notmanaging]

Oh! About a month ago, I was asking people if they wanted haircuts. I was even giving out pudding as well. I'm out of pudding at the moment, but I can still give you a haircut...if you wanted?

[bubbleteatime]

Well, I have been thinking of changing my image for a while! Everyone keeps telling my brothers, aww, your sister's so adorable. But I don't want to pinch my cheeks forever, you know? I want to be like... like that celebrity in that new drama! She's got hair up to her neck and it's sexy cute.

[notmanaging]

[Short? She can do short!]

That sounds reasonable...You have family here?

[monster_maker]

F-Forgive me, madam, but...zapped you?

[He sounds mildly disturbed by the idea, as if wondering what other 'pleasantries' he can come to expect while here]

[notmanaging]

Yes. It does that if you don't use it within a certain period of time. I think it was two weeks.

[monster_maker]

Ah, I see...oh dear.

I'll need to keep a careful eye on that, then.

[notmanaging]

It's not overly painful, if you're worried about that...

[voice]

[stopblamingme]

If it's not one thing, it's another, eh?

You could try for a job in the soup kitchen? But... ahhh, it's not my place to hire people there..

[voice]

[notmanaging]

It certainly seems like it. And thank you, I'll look into it.

[voice]

[stopblamingme]

You're welcome.

I know it's only open for a few hours a day, but considering how many people keep arriving here, we could certainly use more help than less, eh?

Besides, it helps to keep busy in a place like this.

[voice]

[notmanaging]

Yes, the soup kitchen should be considered very important, especially to new arrivals who are only beginning to settle in. Food becomes easier to obtain once you know where to find it.

[baka_jyanai]

You did haircuts?

[notmanaging]

Yes. It was about a month ago...

[baka_jyanai]

Oh...

I forgot.

[notmanaging]

That's all right. It wasn't very successful.
