<sub>[ It's such a beautiful Monday morning! The sun is shining, the grass is green - oh, why is everything back to normal, that's not right...

Well, after the initial shock, Taiwan decides not to let that bother her too much. She doesn't even realize that she was droned for a few days. She keeps switching the lights off whenever she finds them on, though. Just a heads up. ]

[ A At the cosplay cafe, she'll be working like nothing even happened. She's in a cute schoolgirl uniform since it's April - the start of the Japanese school year! The cherry blossom tree outside their house helps set the mood as well. Ah, what's this? Taiwan looks really happy today. Could it be because of the drink she's been advertising nonstop? Bubble tea is the newest item on the menu and she is very, very enthusiastic about it. Why don't you go try it out? ]</sub>

It's really yummy!

<sub>[ Maybe she stops you while you're passing by, maybe she's the waitress taking your order right now. However you meet her, how could you say no to this face? How could you? ]

[ B She's not very good at this acting thing. Maybe you'll catch her by the counter on her break. ]</sub>

Japan said my character was supposed to be the exchange student from Taiwan who is _{[ She pulls her sleeve down a bit and continues as if she is reading something. ]} popular for her zettai ryouiki and hard worker, but naive and a dojikko.

I wonder what a dojikko is...

<sub>[ C Spring means baseball! She hasn't even changed out of her uniform yet, she is that excited. Well, you can still move in a skirt, right? So you'll catch her at the high school's baseball field, pulling out the baseball equipment. Yeah, she broke whatever lock was on it. No, shut up, she doesn't care if she doesn't go here, she wants to play. ]



[ D At the hardware store, trying to buy a pistol and arguing with the store clerk drone. ... More like, grabbing him by the collar. She is mad! ]</sub>

What do you mean "because I'm a girl"? I'm like, _{[ Now she's shaking him. ]} I'm like Sailor Moon but better, you know!

_{[ ooc: Breaking hiatus early since things got fixed faster than expected. ;u; Still in the middle of backtagging everything though. ]}

Well, that depends. If you're a pretty samurai, it might be okay. _{[ She doesn't really think these thinks through. ]}

"I don't know if I'm pretty to begin with. I just like wearing the costumes."

[She lets out a small breath]

[naicha]

Anyone can look cute as long as they do their best!

Um, what else... You have to be friendly and really approachable. Smile a lot! Make the customers feel at ease.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

[She nods a bit]

"Smile... I'll have to practice that... What happens if a pervert comes in the back room while changing?"

[naicha]

Kick him in the nuts.

[She nods a little]

"Ok, I just wanted to make sure. I should have the menu memorized in an hour or so too."

[naicha]

I knew I could count on you! And remember: the customer is always right!

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"That's the first rule of salesmanship. Akito taught me to that. That and not to call the customer stupid, even if they are."

[naicha]

If you get the urge to punch someone, you gotta hold it in until after your shift.

"I'm looking to hire a band of mercenaries to handle things like that. It keeps my hands clean."

[naicha]

That's good! ...ah, but do you have the money for it?

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"I'm offering information as trade. I have a detailed write up of just about everything that fellow Mayfielders did to each other that I witnessed during the Milkman incident. In my experience information frequently can substitute for money."

[naicha]

I see, I see! Knowledge is power, that's what they say.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Yes. Yes it is. I mean, you are a nation right? Don't you consider intelligence a valuable asset?"

[naicha]

Of course! My place is small and I don't have a lot of resources, so I don't have anything to rely on but myself if I wanna get things done. People here don't believe me when I say this but _{[ She taps her head twice with a finger. ]} I'm pretty smart, you know.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"Why wouldn't they believe you? You don't act like an idiot which is more than a lot of people here can say."

[naicha]

_{[ crosses her arms ]} I dunno, I think they're just in denial.

[hontobakabaka.livejournal.com]

"You may be right."

[She nods]
