[ A young girl sits at a table in an otherwise nondescript room, her hands folded in front of her in a picture of perfect professionalism. Her white button-down shirt is similarly perfect, not a wrinkle in sight, and tailored to her thin frame. Her gaze into her omni is expressionless — some might call it cold — and her high, childish voice is tempered with the assured enunciation of an adult. ]

Good evening. My name is Tanya von Degurechaff. I'm new here, so I have a couple questions for anyone willing to answer.

First, what kind of job do you currently have? If you don't have one, then I'm also interested in hearing what you did before you arrived here.

Second, are there any jobs or businesses you'd like to see here? I recognize that this is a broad question, but since we come from a broad range of backgrounds, any feedback is welcome.

[ A pause, a stray thought seeming to flicker through her head before she continues. ]

As for myself, I have experience with personnel management, various air-based operations, tactical field research, and administrative work. More broadly, I'm an aerial mage. The business I'd like to see is a coffee shop.

It's normal for a girl my age to want to make friends. The power of friendship is a wonderful thing.

[ Networking, friendship, what's the difference? Friendship should be a mutually beneficial experience, and so should your business relations. Tanya isn't one of those shameless crooks who would try to swindle a business partner. She's a fine, upstanding model citizen who values honesty and reliability. ]

I'll keep your offer in mind. Every workplace benefits from a diverse staff, so it might even be better if we have our differences. I'll keep you updated on any projects I end up starting.

[ Ever since they met, she had a feeling Ciel would be handy to have around. It's a nice mental cushion knowing that you have an extra pair of hands ready to help. ]

[Ciel does it for FREE, that's the difference... Blame (?) it on the religious ("religious") upbringing (?????), but she's not about to argue with Tanya being coy a normal girl her age.]

Yes, of course. I'll leave you to making friends, then. Speaking of diversify, I know you generally have a very open mind, but please at least try to not get close to too many shady old men, okay? [There's been a spike of those recently, or at least it FEELS like there's been...] A girl your age should mind her image, too.

Take care and have a good day, Tanya. Until next time!

[And without giving the smaller girl an opportunity to quip back at whatever that last part was, the feed cuts on a friendly wave. It's always valid to warn about sus old men, alright,]

[ ...........

Hello? Who said anything about shady old men?? Ciel??? Also most of Tanya's associates in her past life were older men (as she was in the military and all), but she doesn't feel like she had any image problems... Being that she is extremely normal and self-aware, she should know.

Oh well. Tanya tucks Ciel's parting advice away for consideration at another time. If she can't figure it out, she can always just ask for elaboration later... ]
