Do you make money, by the way?


Sort of. I tell the boss I'm thinking about buying something, justify how it'll help the estate, and she's never said no. I don't have my own supply though.

Signs of life. It’s nice being sure I haven’t already spoken to the last other person I’ll ever see.


That would be a sad way to go.

Seeing functional robots running around everywhere is a weird sight.


I wouldn’t want to be the one repairing a high-pressure steam pipe. It would probably pay well though.
<Snipped quote by Legend Begins>

That’s good to hear, honestly.


The variety also isn’t bad.

It's not gonna automatically put me in a certain class of people to wear clothes like that right? No one will look down on me?


Not really. It once did, but it became a catch-all eventually for people who weren’t elite or poor, including merchants.
