The Ciansion
The front door creaked open, thrust with all the strength Parsee Mizuhashi could muster after a 12+ hour day overseeing business as usual as well as finalizing negotiations to jointly purchase the old NBN building with Kawashiro. Nitori might have more brains for engineering than business, but she had a ruthless team supporting her whilst the new Dra Co CEO only had she, herself, and I on her side. The top floors with the abandoned NBN portal technology would be shared between the two corporations and the Kobbers, but at least Parsee got the rest of the top portion of the building, even if it was only 45% of it.
Her new office was going to have a great view once all the broken glass was replaced. Maybe she could get Meiling to pay for it since she was likely the one who broke it?
Ha, no.
The biggest trial of the day had come from promising to bring home dinner. She'd gotten an e-mail with a list that looked more like the incoming supply manifest for a battleship that, thankfully, she was able to order three hours before she could pick it up. But, be it ever so humble, she was finally home for the night.
And then they descended, like vultures smelling blood. Or hungry Prinnies smelling freshly-sliced deli meats.
"d00d"
"Dood."
"d00d"
"Dood."
And so on, Parsee handing out each sandwich perfectly and giving Cian his personal party platter. It all went amazingly well, all things considered, until...
"d00d where's my corned beef?"
"Um...?"
Parsee dug around the bag. All that was left was her own sandwich and it was definitely not corned beef.
"I swear it was in here. I made extra sure to check..."
Parsee then looked to her left and quickly pulled off Cian's head, grabbing the precious sandwich the moment it dropped out of Cian's neck. Hashihime and Prinny stared at the sandwich with something akin to dull resignation.
"thanks d00d"
Corned beef was corned beef and it had barely been chewed. The Prinny took off while Parsee looked her prisoner in the eye.
"What am I going to do with you?"
Cian grinned impishly.
Parsee glared.
Then smooched him.
THE END
