OFFICE HOURS

Got something you want to say to your good friend The Professor's Assistant? Come on in, don't be shy! Her official hours are daylight hours - girl has to sleep? after all, probably - but if you knock on the door at night she'll generally answer. Please just make sure to leave the in-game date and time in the header of your toplevel!

All comments are screened for confidentiality during the course of the experiment.

Perfect. Light beer or a vodka seltzer is my drink of choice, but I prefer it a little heavier on the seltzer...

[ Here, Angel, it's premium stuff, finest pop this side of the hose-- ]

Not much of a drinker, but the police department has these little "group bonding" activities all the time, and I always feel like it's kind of taboo not to drink a little at those things. Plus, I mean, it's on my boss's dime, so it'd be a mistake not to take advantage a little...

Which is all the more reason we should milk it for all its worth. Though I will say, I don't know if it's you or him, but whoever put that CD in there? "Clash at Demon Souls" or whatever it's called?

It's catchy. I've had that song stuck in my head since yesterday.

Huh. For some reason, I kind of assumed it was you. Maybe because you give off that sort of vibe?

[ As if trying to punctuate her point, she runs a hand through her hair and pulls it back; it's sort of punk! ]

I know you've probably never been to a rock concert, but I feel like you'd probably fit right in.

A-ha! So I was on the money! Do you have any other recommendations for bands like them, then? Maybe I can throw them on in the boombox in the bar next time I decide to play barten. I dunno if you saw, but it seems like my drinks were a bit of a hit...

I'd appreciate that! As long as you've got internet on that thing, I can probably give you some recs myself, if you're looking to make a little trade of it.

[ Though, wait, right, they're in 2020 now... ]

Mm, what did I listen to when I was studying abroad in Europe...I was eighteen years old, and as eighteen year olds do, I was going through a little bit of a phase at the time. The kind of phase where you want to just sorta throw yourself at everything and prove yourself, you know?

[ She crosses her arms and stares up at the ceiling of Angel's office a bit... ]

Marina and the Diamonds, Florence and the Machine, Lana del Rey, and Halsey? I liked Paramore, too...

[ A little embarrassing... ]

Oh, I've heard of Daughter, actually! I know a few of their songs from these old TV shows I used to watch, way back when. But I never actually owned one of their albums or anything. A lot of the CDs I actually owned were hand-me-downs from my sister Lana...

Do you recommend their less popular stuff? I know deep cuts are usually where it's at...

Oh, goodness...

[ A little bit upsetting... ]

That's kind of lame. You really don't get any, like, blogs or social media or anything at all on that thing?

[ Granted, neither do they, but, sometimes you gotta send a poke to your friend that lives four countries away-- ]

And here I thought you could get Wi-Fi pretty much anywhere these days...

[ She takes a sip of her vodka soda... ]

What about things like current events? Do you get updates from your boss with things like that, or do you know as much as we do?

Mm...I get it, but it sounds like a pain in the butt to me.

[ Of course, there isn't much about this situation that isn't. ]

I guess you'll see once you get out of here, but it's kind of fun to look up posts and stuff of what people thought of these songs once you finish. Sometimes they come out of it with a completely different point of view than you did, which is interesting in its own way, scientifically speaking...
