Koutari's Bookstore

She got up in a more professional position to sit and looked at the girl without looking tired as a dog. "Anything I can help with?"

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:28 am

"N-no...I don't have any money...so I just browse the local shops."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:31 am

"You can always just read one over there." She gestured at the reading corner, couple tables, currently unoccupied. "And if you like it, maybe get it later. When you do have money."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:33 am

She blushed. She hadn't had any money for a while now. "O-okay."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:36 am

Yuu managed a smile, before dropping her face on the desk again, feeling like just sleeping right on the spot.

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:37 am

"I guess I will leave you be...you seem quite tired."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:38 am

She raised her hand, speaking muffled by the table. "Take your time, I'll be here if you need me."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:40 am

"H-hey...w-would you...happen to need someone? For the bookstore..."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:42 am

Yuu stayed unresponsive for a couple seconds, then raised her head again. "Wha..? Need for the bookstore?" Her mind was all over the place. Too many night, she told herself. Never again.

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:43 am

"I figured...I would ask for work...am I being rude?"

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:45 am

Yuu sat up straight again and rubbed her eyes. "Rude, I don't know how asked for work is rude. Though maybe I could use a hand here. Not sure if I'm allowed to have people work for me. I'd have to ask that pesky government about that. But it's fine by me, I actually would like some company."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:50 am

"G-government?" She backed away a little. She remembered that humans needed some sort of identification for employment...getting work might require her to expose herself...

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:54 am

"Yeah, those over the top arrogant people that run everythnig. They're not even fair. I mean it wasn't my fault they let her get away. But nobody listens, they just give you the job and you have to be at it every night." She put her chin on the table, pouting, making images in her head of how she could tear apart the government building in several ways.

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:56 am

"O-oh...who got away?" She regained her composure a little.

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 10:59 am

She realized she'd blabbered confidential intel and tried to salvage what was salvagable. "Oh, just some. Person. Didn't pay. I think."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:00 am

"I see...s-so, you would have to ask permission...for me to gain employment here?"

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:03 am

"I'll just tell them. They owe me anyway. And a friendly face is nice to have around."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:04 am

"Okay...I-I do not have...any identification...is that okay?" She turned her gaze away as she spoke.

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:06 am

"Sure you do. You have a name, age, and all that, right?"

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:08 am

"J-just name and age..." She was getting nervous. "...A-astraria...and I am eighteen...I do not know what 'and all that' means, but I only have those two."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:12 am

"You don't have a birthplace, family, home, any of that?" Yuu looked at her and alarm bells started to ring in her head.

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:14 am

"I have family...yes, but I left them years ago...I forgot the name of my hometown...and as for home...I live a few blocks from here."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:15 am

She kept an eye on the girl, while maintaining her tired appearance, even though she was wide awake now. "All right, well. I think we'll just have to write that stuff down for an application. Shouldn't be much."

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:17 am

"A-alright..." She sighed in relief, glad she wasn't pressed for more information.

Subject: Re: Koutari's Bookstore Thu Jan 07, 2016 11:28 am

Yuu nodded. She thought she was going mad. 1 week, 2 girls that both showed signs of maybe being special or one of those mythical beings, no means to identify them without blowing cover AND the Government loses their best weapon to a tunnel leading all the way to a forest. She wouldn't last long with this pressure on her if this was keeping up.
