The editor-in-chief wants writing material for the interview I conducted behind closed doors. I think that the bastard was eavesdropping on us.

What the hell is up with him, I wonder...

It's been awhile since I've written anything in here. Guess I should make some sort of update.

Yesterday, I was asked by the editor-in-chief to go to Takarazuka and see if I can find any points of interest there. No problems there so I went and gathered writing materials and nabbed my voice recorder. Really handy for interviews. I found a few points of interest but in the end, it came down to two places. Yuri Sushi and Takahashi Tea House. Both places showed quite a bit of promise, let me tell ya that. But it all came down to number of people showing up.

Takahashi Tea House.

Looked over their menu to find out what kinda stuff they serve and well, I was surprised. The customers there pretty nice, the waiters and the waitresses were all pretty hot themselves, and the manager... hoo, let me tell ya. He's quite the good-looker. Not only that, he looked younger than me. Too bad I couldn't really do anything about it. I was there on business and he was nice enough to give me some tea and a slice of cake on the house. That was pretty nifty.

After I asked him some questions, I went ahead and went back to the office and wrote up the report on today's paper.

Tomorrow, I'm gonna pick up Volt at Cerberus, and then go back to Takarazuka to pick up Sion and we're gonna have a nice day out at the Fountain Of Youth. Gotta remember, though. It's part of work. Only not so much...

I got this stinkin suspicion that Volt and Sion are out doing stuff without me. And that's not cool. I feel left out of the loop, and that ain't cool. Something fishy is up, and I don't like it. I need to find out what's up with those two.

Speaking of which, the newspaper decided to work me like a dog these past few weeks because some idiotic douche bag messed something up at the editing desk and because of that, we didn't get to release the first issue of Ares Journal. Now, the Editor-In-Chief is making most of the departments work like dogs. Because I'm in Headlines, I get stacked with the most reports I need to research and sometimes, I even have to go out of the office and into other districts to research all this shit. Okay, so the travelling part is pretty fun. The typing out reports, I can tolerate. But the volume? It's absolutely ridiculous! How the hell am I supposed to have enough time to get all of these done by the publication date of January 13th?

I feel like wringing idiotic people's necks but I don't wanna get terminated. By the way, witnesses and people I've interviewed say that when you get "terminated", you're killed. Better watch your back, people.

Huh. Looks like this place isn't bad after all. I got a job as a media journalist for the newspaper. Maybe I can run some sort of advice column. That'd be sweet. At least it'd give me a lot of free time to kill, and give people insight they'd like or need. Sounds fitting, doesn't it?

Even though I miss being back home, I kinda like it here. It's nicer, there aren't a lot of things I need to worry about (except for finding a way home), and it's nice to know that Sion and Volt are here.

It's getting a little cold outside. Some people have been telling me that there's been some crazy weather going on in here and some people were going insane. Too bad I missed all the action. Might've been fun watching people, you know?

I wonder what the other districts are like. Hey Volt. Sion. Maybe I should stop by at your place sometime. It doesn't look like I start work until this Monday so I have some free time.

( That's what I thought! )
