You know, Pro Dueling isn't that stressful when you have a 3000 Train with a giant gun on your side running over beasts.

I'm glad you've been doing well with that, Suzume.

Though I wonder if Pro Dueling has fallen out of focus.

I'm kind of always late.

But I have to admit a bird themed aviator costume on Noriko's part is cute. Kinda.

I rather hope not, really. Pro Duels still seem to be going on... it's just been troublesome, myself, due to Noriko's problems at late.

Problems?

The fact that there was an extended period of you being undercut by miss Oneefuji's efforts. Repeatedly.

Oh. That. I'm working on that. I'm thinking you should get an allowance as is.

... Allowance?

I would really rather I actually do work for money, Noriko...

What are your talents and education?

I'm going to be finished with the college come this fall.

That depends on what you define as "talents", considering there are unnatural, practical, and impractical talents.

Main studies?

And all three please, dear.

Deck-building, dueling-wise. Deck theory and the sort. Other classes include some psychology and some politics, but nothing too serious.

I'll admit I'm a little uncomfortable listing anything for no particular reason, Noriko, especially since I already work for you. You just haven't given me any work in what you hired me for.

... I dunno, maybe make a firm or something by teaching people to make better decks for prime time?

And that's because you're big and scary. I like saving you.

Mmm... I don't know, that is basically the point of the college class in itself... Besides, I don't think I'd be good for teaching, anyway. I'm rather bad at talking to groups.

Well, it does rather make it... Difficult, to do my job then, you know.

How would you feel if you had a helmet and armor on?

... How?

... In what context?

I don't get paid if I don't do duels...?

When talking to people. The right clothes are always important.

... o right. Ugh. I'll see what jobs I can do. But at the same time, you can't be harvesting opponents left and right. There's a difference between culling the herd and wretched excess.

... I think I'd feel odd, doing that.

I-I know, I know, but... I think I've been in reserve for long enough, Noriko. My skills are going to get rusty.

Why?

... Ugh, problem is, the biggest windfall opponents that come to mind the most would be uh, Susan and Shiroko. Or that Kaz fellow.

And I think the former two might be a bit cruel?

It depends what kind of fish you're looking for, metaphorically.

I think I'd feel too militaristic.

Honestly, at the moment? I'd just like duels. Even if it's something more minor.

I think I can arrange a few dragging small fry. Base fee though.

Well, hopefully this should help us both?

Mm, hopefully. But it is still troublesome. I'm just thankful I at least found a job I can do without fear of breaking everything, in the meantime.

And we technically can ask for help from Shiroko, remember?

... Though she seems bored recently.

Mm? Bored?

"My job is boring me", is the general impression I get.

Ahhh... Well, I guess that's a bit understandable...

And I'm not sure I can do clothes all day.

Pick up sculpting or boxing?

You should consider more hobbies.

Maybe learn a new instrument?

Frankly, I have been meaning to buy a piano. Maybe. But I have no where to put it privately, since I don't think people would appreciate me playing it.

Why not ask them? Piano music can be soothing.

... I guess. It just seems odd that anyone would enjoy it. Pianos come off as boring.

I wouldn't mind. Though I do think you should do something with your hands in case of any more nonsense, "your highness."
