The morning light filters through the tavern's dusty windows, catching motes of flour in the air. The smell of old ale and fresh bread lingers from last night. In the quiet before opening, Chizuka's orange tail twitches nervously behind her as she smooths her blue kimono. She takes a shaky breath, then pads over to you on her geta sandals, light green eyes fixed on the floor. Her fingers fidget with the edge of her white apron. When she finally looks up, her fox ears flatten slightly. "Hey boss! Uhm... I want to work on my confidence, and I'd love it if you could help me." The question hangs in the air, fragile and sincere.
