((A/N) Hey! I'm finally back! So, just a forewarning, I'd like to ask you all to please watch the video later on in the text completely before you continue onto the following paragraph simply for context's sake. I also would like to apologize for this coming out a day late, I currently live in a no internet household and my signal is absolute shit. That being said, the rest of the chapters for this might come out about a day or two late due to this. I'm sorry. I hope you enjoy my shitty little fan fiction, and please tell me what you think in the comments below! Alright, that's all for now, Author Out! Peace!!)

Dualscar wandered into his quarters, a bottle of whiskey in his hand and a curse on his lips.
"Fuck, these muck bloods sure do knoww howw make a good wwhiskey." He saw an envelope and tape placed on his desk. Stumbling over, he picked up the tape and read the label:

(Y/N) (L/N) Audition Tape

"Nixium, wwhat the cod is this?"
Sighing, a yellow-blooded servant of no more than 8 sweeps stepped into view.
"Th¤t is the ¤udit¤n t¤pe fr¤m the hum¤n girl y¤u r¤n int¤ e¤rlier. She ¤pplied t¤ be ¤n ent¤iner, but m¤re specific¤lly, t¤ be ¤ d¤ncer," he answered in a tired tone. Dualscar raised his eyebrow and gave a, well, what he was sure was a sultry smirk. In reality, he just looked like a drunken fool.
"Wwell, then!" He slurred, slamming the tape back down on the desk, " let's seeeeeee wwhat she's got!"
Nixium sighed once again, pinching the bridge of his nose and setting his psyionics to work. He lifted a tv and placed the tape within the archaic VHS player that he had won in a game if cards.
"Thank youuu Nixium! That'll be all. Goodnight!" Dualscar shooed him away, switching on the television. As Nixium closed the door of his captain's quarters he sighed out, "G¤g, he's never been the s¤me since he split w¤ys with Mindf¤ng."

"M》ss, oh m》ss!" I heard a voice, and felt someone shaking me, drag me out of a dark and dreamless sleep. I felt stiff, and my vision was blurry due to sleep. I could see an orange-tinted girl in dressed in rags, with worry in her eyes and voice.
"Y-yes, I'm awake, I'm awake," I managed to slur out.
"Oh m》ss, 》-》-》-》 saw you sleep》ng here and, well, 》 just thought 》t wasn't safe here, well not here exactly, 》t's very safe here, th》s
bu》ld》ng 》s very safe, but w》th you sleep》ng all out 》n the open l》ke you were, 》 just-" Chuckling, I cut her off, but she looked worried.
"It's alright, I know what you're trying to tell me, and know that I greatly appreciate it. Us girls gotta look out for each other, right?" I tried my best to give her a reassuring smile. It seemed to work for her face lit up with a beaming grin.
"Oh, 》'm so glad that you understand, most trolls are always so rude and are all l》ke 'T》zzey, why don't you just shut up for once, you talk to much for a rust blood!' and well, 》t's just, well... well 》t's just downr》ght mean!" Chuckling again, I slid down from my chair.
"Yeah, I know what you mean. Most trolls wouldn't give me the time of day, let alone try to help me."
"Oh, 》t's no problem m》ss!"
"Just, call me (Y/N), and you're Tizzey, right?"
"Yes 》t 》s m》-opps! 》 mean (Y/N)."
"Tizzey, would you happen to have gotten any word about my job?" Tizzy gave me a confused look, and then a sudden look of realization came upon her face.
"Oh, 》 wouldn't know anyth》ng about that, 》'm just a ma》d. 》'm just
stay》ng here for the n》ght w》th the rest of my master's servants. 》'm actually leav》ng tomorrow."
"Oh. If you don't mind me asking, what's your master's name?"
"Oh, 》t's no b》g deal! Although you've probably never heard of h》m, be》ng a human and all, h》s name 》s Dualscar. Dualscar Ampora."
I could feel my face light up as I said,
"No way! I just applied for a job under him!"
"No freak》ng way! How d》d you manage that, he only accepts appl》cat》ons from humans that know h》s full name!"
"Really? Some troll man told me to apply for a job under that name."
"Hmm, that's super we》rd, but he has some strange fr》ends, that troll. Say, s》nce you're probably gonna get a job under h》m, why don't you stay with me for ton》ght?"
"Seriously?! Are you sure, I know how most trolls feel about human. P-pp-plus I wouldn't want to be a burden or anything."
"Psshhhh! Who cares, we're all low bloods anyways, there's no po》nt 》n spread》ng more hate."
"Thank god, you have no idea how much this means to me!" Tizzey started walking towards her room for the night, and I walked beside her.
"Say, what job d》d you apply for anyways? And what's a 'god'?"
"Oh, well, you see-...." and so I recounted my life and what led up to my job up until now, as Tizzey told me about this Dualscar troll who would soon be my employer. I slept soundly that night, knowing for the first time in a few years, I had finally made a friend I could keep.


Sobbing. This grown troll was sobbing at the beauty of the images that flashed before him. His bottle of whiskey had long since broken free of his drunken grasp and smashed upon the floor. He cried out for all the world to hear, but the only one who knew was Nixium, who had used his psyionics to rewind the tape again. And again. And again. It had not be since he left his kismesistude with Mindfang had he seen his friend, for he very much considered himself a friend of Dualscar, in such a state. It worried him, and yet somehow this breakdown of Dualscar's seemed to be a sign of empathy and emotion Nixium had long worried Dualscar had shut off.
Dualscar, on the other hand, had no idea why he cried so. While he did not care much for the actual song itself, he did know that the beauty and grace and raw emotion in this woman's dancing had moved him to emotions that he too, much like Nixium, had thought he had buried long ago. But, he did not dislike these newly kindled emotions. Quite the opposite, really. It was then and there, while heavily intoxicated and sobbing like a wee grub, that he needed to see her dance for him again.
"Ni*hic*ium..."
"Yes sir?"
"Tomo*hic*oww, wwhen you go to collect the maids and such, I wwant you to find *hic*is girl a-and, and..."
"¤nd... wh¤t, sir?"
"Tell this (Y/N) (L/N), that she has a job." A smile played at the corner of his lips when he replied,
"¤f c¤urse, sir."
