CH Postal Company, Dolls Writing Room, 9:45 AM...

"THIS SUCKS!!!!" complained Iris as she threw the file on the table.

On the large circular desk, tons and tons of papers and files a.k.a. janitor work of two months worth.

All the Dolls sat at the desk and had a typewriter in front of them. Their task was to compile all this info in their personal folder. Each Doll had to list all the jobs they took respectively, the specific amount of tenyas they earned from their assignment, the client's name, the location, and the amount of time it took to finish the job. Extra info was necessary like travel money used, extra expenses,and even damages. This task remains a necessity in a Doll's life.

The janitor work would have been lighter if they hadn't skipped out on it for 2 months. But every human has the nature to slack, Dolls included as refined and brilliant as they may be. Let's look at how our Dolls are doing.

"Iris, you don't need to be so loud," Erica timidly rebuked as she picked up a paper.

"Sorry, Erica. It's just stress y'know," Iris replied as she stretched. "We have this woman to thank after all."

Iris pointed at Cattleya who sat directly opposite her typing.

"Wha...why you?! I said I was sorry! God!" Cattleya expressed her annoyance.

"It kinda is your fault, Cattleya," added the young Erica. 

"Jeez, I made a mistake, okay? I got wasted with Hodgins last night," she explained

"Getting drunk does lead to poor life choices which usually effect the drinker in a negative way," observed the fast-typing Violet.

Iris picked up a new paper and set it in her typewriter.

"Then, why the hell are we paying for Cattleya's mistake?!?!?" she blamed.

Cattleya felt a blush reach her cheeks as she tightened the papers in the folder.

"Enough, guys. Let's just help each other get out of this, okay? Let's all finish our respective Doll work as a group," encouraged Violet.
