"LLLLLLLLET'S PLAY!"

Kmzoe groaned as she hit the alarm clock, a tuxedo mask holding a rose. First day on the job and she already felt like she was hungover, though that would be impossible considering no one even sold alcohol in Browntown. The most intoxicating substance around was marijuana and not much else.

The girl swung her legs off the bed and proceeded to make her way to the kitchen. She caught her reflection in the bathroom mirror and grinned lopsidedly at how ridiculous she looked, short hair sticking in every direction.

The apartment was small but unusually roomy considering she didn't have a lot of stuff. It had only been a week since...

Well, since anything had happened. Kmzoe had just woken up one morning, found this apartment, got an interview at Cakeless Enterprises for finances, and played video games until she couldn't see the screen anymore.

The fridge was nearly empty, save for what little milk was left in the carton and some leftover lasagna. Kmzoe grabbed the milk, deciding on Cocoa-Krispies would be better suited than day-old Italian food. As she poured her bowl, she checked her phone. 2 unread messages. The first was from Tardisrosehp, the second from Themisakanetwork.

From: Tardisrosehp

Hey girl! Good luck on the new job! Games at my place tonight to celebrate?

Tardis was always super nice to just about everyone unless they rubbed her the wrong way, which was seldom.

From: Themisakanetwork

Yo asshole. Dont fuck up ur new digs

Misaka was one of those people Tardis just couldn't like, even though they hung out and played games together, mostly through Kmzoe. There was the occasional skirmish, but nothing a good match of Evolve couldn't fix.

Kmzoe shoved the first spoonful of chocolate cereal into her mouth, mulling over what she should reply.

To: Tardisrosehp

Sure. Later!

K Boi! Games at Tardis' place tonite!

She slurped the cereal milk and placed the bowl in the sink, walking back towards the bathroom. A quick brushing and some deodorant, then Kmzoe pulled on her clothes, jeans and a Deadpool t-shirt.

"Time to work, don't screw this up." She whispered to herself as she grabbed her keys and wallet, walking to the front door.

A message appeared on her phone as Kmzoe locker the front door of the apartment.

From: Tardisrosehp

Themisakanetwork better not be coming over tonite or i might actually kill her this time!


Kmzoe chuckled as she walked out the door.
