twelfth voyage

[ Option one!

Hello Mayfield. Guess whose voice has returned to echo out of your phones once more? That's right... ]

Haaah! I thought that was a nice nap! I feel more sleepy than usual. It's like I haven't had any actual rest at all. But...that can't be right

They gave ya a job, huh? Too bad! What'd ya get?

[rivercrossed]

Yeah, I guess it was finally time...

Uh. I think I work in the bakery now, yup.

[techno_mancer]

Huh. Sounds kinda boring, but at least ya might score some free food outta the deal.

[rivercrossed]

That's what I thought!

...But what if I get droned again, as punishment?

[techno_mancer]

Oh, yeah. I guess try not to go overboard?

So you've already been droned once? I've managed to avoid it so far.

[rivercrossed]

Don't eat too much, got it. But c'mon, I should be allowed to have some leftovers, at least!

I don't wanna think about it, but yeah. Just now! For a week, I think...it's just like I was asleep.

[techno_mancer]

Hey, if it were up to me, I'd say so!

Asleep? Huh. Ya sure maybe ya just don't remember it?

[rivercrossed]

Alright, I'll steal - uh, get some! It's not stealing, not really.

I can't remember anything while I'm asleep usually. I just drift off and suddenly I'm awake again being yelled at for no reason.

[techno_mancer]

Wow. Weird! You're one deep sleeper. Try not to do it at work, okay?

[rivercrossed]

I try not to, I really do! But see, back home I'm worked to the bone, so it's only healthy to take breaks. Hopefully this job won't be too stressful.

[techno_mancer]

A bakery job? Probably not, but maybe now that it's the holidays, it might be.

[rivercrossed]

Ah-! Do you think I'll be made to make Christmas cakes? Humans love that sort of thing, eating and lazing about, it sounds so nice.

[techno_mancer]

Probably? And hell yeah, that's what holidays are all about, man! [He laughs.]

[rivercrossed]

Aww, I heard Christmas cakes are a lot of work to make. But I s'pose it's all for the festive cheer~ I hope I get days off for the holiday.

[techno_mancer]

This wholesome town would never make ya work Christmas day, at least.

[rivercrossed]

Alright! That's a relief! I can just spend it resting.
