Hoshizora Aiko watches in stunned silence as this women with an ill-defined relationship to her possible new boss bows to her. She bows after Aiko, more formally than Aiko, and deeper than Aiko.

She stands ramrod straight and expectant next to a small, ugly metal chair which sits in the center of the room, facing towards the desk. She is the very image of a nervous highschool girl. She takes a deep breath, her outward composure still shaky.
