"So does that make sense?" I asked, my arm wrapped around Fiz as she fiddled with my phone.

"I think so," She nodded, tapping the screen carefully.

"Any questions about anything we discussed?" I asked. We had spent most of the day sitting together while I explained as much as I could about my world to Fiz.

"So you need a job to make money, right?" She asked, tilting her head. "How would I get a job?"

"Huh?"

"If I'm going to be staying with you, I want to be able to help support us," She explained. "So, how would I get a job?"

"Well... first off, we need to figure out how to get you passed off as a citizen."

"You get a bunch of papers and stuff, right? And a card?"

"Yeah, how did you know?" I asked.

"I had those in a small cloth bag with me when I woke up," Fiz said, hopping off the bed and running out of the room. A few moments later, she returned with a small bag, the same color as my couch, and smiled. It looked like a fairly cheap purse, or maybe just one of those drawstring bags, but smaller.

"I've got a few papers in here..." Fiz mumbled, pulling out a birth certificate, a learner's permit, and social security card. I simply stared, amazed. "Are these right?"

I picked them up, examining them. According to the documents, she was born in 2001 and is from Texas. I spent a few minutes examining them carefully, and even comparing them to my own.

"It's all legit..." I said, still amazed. "I guess it's Taiyo's doing?"

Fiz nodded happily. "I guess. That's all I had, though."

"Well, there's a bakery nearby. We could try to get you a job interview there, if you'd like..." I glanced at the clock. "But I've got to get to work for now."

"Can I come?" Fiz asked softly, hopping onto the bed next to me. I kissed her cheek and stood up, walking to my closet and putting on one of my work shirts.

"If you'd like... but I'm not sure it'll be terribly interesting. I'll be busy all night, so you'll just have to sit in the shop and wait," I explained, putting on a hat to complete my uniform.

"I don't mind at all, sweetie~" Fiz giggled playfully, standing up and slipping her shoes on. She stopped and looked down at her outfit, blushing slightly. "Mm... maybe I shouldn't go out in this outfit... something tells me that it's not really normal for your world."

I nodded in agreement. "True. After work, I'll take you out and we can pick up some other clothes for you. Sound good?"

Fiz nodded, her ears flopping slightly. I tapped her nose once before kissing it, and then left the room.

"Oh, by the way, if you need me," I said, stopping and turning back into the room. "My work is down the street and to the right. Feel free to poke around at home,  just be careful not to break anything."

Fiz nodded happily, waving at me. "See you after work, cutie~"

Ugh, sorry it's been so long. I wanted to take a break, then I got sick... whatever, I'm back with... season two, I guess? Hope you guys enjoy it!
