"Shiota, I don't know what's going on with you but this is the third time this week you've been late. I need to know why." He's a good guy. He can't just be lazy.
"Sir... I've... I have a second job. It kept me busy this week. I promise I'll be better! I'm sorry." He sets my papers on my desk, bowing. I run a hand through my hair.
"I'm a little worried now. Do you need a second job? Is it a money thing? I can help you, if you need it."
"Uh... the extra cash is... nice, but it's more recreational." I sigh into my chair and pinch the bridge of my nose.
"I understand you have a second job, it is more for recreation than money... so you aren't having financial problems with your salary here?"
"No! Thank you. You pay me well." Good. I want him taking care of himself. But, I do have a meeting in just a minute. I need to get going.
"Well please be getting enough sleep. I can't have my best worker overdoing it." I ruffle his hair as I walk out.

POV Nagisa"You look excited. Date tonight?" Akabane smirks on his way into the elevator.
"Oh I wish. I have a business meeting and I'm worried about making a good first impression." I look down at my tie. I just hope it looks alright. I'm going to need to run home if I want to change but I still wouldn't have time to shower. I have to walk like this. I've never seen him in person before! He's my boss, I'm nervous.
"Well, if you're looking for advice, try to seem interested in everything they say." He smiles, leaning over to tighten and straighten the black fabric. That was kind of intimate... No. stay in the game. Assassin mode.
"Everything?" I check that my shirt is tucked.
"Or memorize their eye color. Whichever is easiest. Make sure you don't overwork yourself, Shiota."

I knock on the thick door, readjusting my mask as it opens. I nod at the man behind it as I jump in, pacing to my bosses office. The doors already opened so I step in, shutting it behind me. He's standing, leaning on his desk, with his mask on. It's larger than the usual ones, covering his mouth and chin as well as his eyes and nose.
"Nice of you to show up, Python. I assume you know why you're here." No I don't. Oh no, what did I do? I must have done something. Wait, is that his real voice? It sounds wrong.
"Did I miss an assignment? Did I forget to turn something in? Is a file overdue?" He wouldn't call me in without reason. I know you don't just get fired from stuff like this.
"We called you in because you're doing great. I was thinking about a raise." What?
"I don't really need one... I work a second job and you already pay me well." Does nobody know this? I must've told everyone at some point.
"A second job?! I've been sending you out on late night kills thinking you could sleep in! Do you wake up early everyday?" The voice modifier makes a funny noise against his shift in pitch.
"I thought I told you about my job. And don't worry about the night stuff! I enjoy it." I get plenty of sleep. He knows it doesn't take long for me to clean.
"Look. I don't want you to overwork yourself. I know you find it enjoyable, but... I worry for you sometimes."
"I assure you I'm doing well! My work is my life and I love it."
