Not caring about the every day man makes you crazy.

[discomfort]

You raise a good point. Crazy, soulless-- all the same, maybe.

But that seems to be the kind of situation we are in.

[thematics]

It's not new. I'm tired of it.

[discomfort]

Ah, that's right... it did sound like your situation before this was complicated.

[ girl what kind of spaceships have you been on ]

[thematics]

Every situation I hear from people here sounds complicated. Haven't heard yours, though.

[discomfort]

Oh.

I am just an inn owner. The Murakumo Inn in Japan.

[thematics]

Sounds simple enough. [ i don't personally trust that it is, but that's fine. ]

So this job is a bit out of your wheelhouse.

[discomfort]

Well, I am used to running errands for guests, but not quite on the... intergalactic level.

[ also he makes other people to carry boxes for him ]

[thematics]

What, you don't have the rest of the staff do that kind of thing for you?

[discomfort]

We usually end up dividing the guests amongst ourselves for who will tend to them. One of my staff does do all the cooking for all though, but that's because he doesn't really trust the rest of us in the kitchen.

[thematics]

... Is he right? Can you be trusted in a kitchen?

[discomfort]

Of course I know how to cook.

[thematics]

Suspicious.

[discomfort]

What? I would never lie about this.

[thematics]

So what's got them convinced?

[discomfort]

He is definitely jealous that I surpass him.

[thematics]

So he's depriving the guests, huh?

[discomfort]

It's a shame, but it's fine. As the proprietor of the inn, I usually am busier than the other staff members, so it just means I can focus on other things.
