Man, I think I like where Kria works.  I wonder if I can put an application in.  If nothing else, I can offer my services as a copier technician.  I think they need one.

Well if this is any indication, Kria is in the business of things.

I wonder how many times Kria has had to use that Photocopy machine for more then its original purpose? >:3

I though Keia was an information recovery and remover of unwanted individuals specialist.

I had no idea that these people had offices.

Kria's previous history seems to indicate that she'd work *just fine* in a corporate setting, and if she's only *one* of the folks watching out for Zinvth...

Seriously, though, every workplace has someone who has in their job description (or split over two people) 'information recovery' and 'physical security officer'.  It just may not be in the job *title*.

Edit:  It occurs to me that if folks at my workplace have been using the photocopier for similar issues/methods, it could easily explain why it seems to implode every time someone looks at it for more than a few seconds.
For decades I viewed myself as a 'wageslave', captive to whims of others and not realizing that by Naming myself that I *defined* myself.

Now many years older and wiser, I am trying to be the change  I want to see.

Ah yes, Kria's workplace, where you can take a minor conflict over who gets to use the fax machine first and explode it into physical violence, and your supervisor will applaud you for it. ;)

It's a shame Lorenda doesn't want to work there.  She could have been one of the central characters in DFMA's own parody of The Office.

I foresee a problem with this way of dealing with the problems, if the 'victim' is a demon they may see this as flirting, or worse foreplay. They're a bit like Klingons in that respect.

Demons will be demons. Can't shake them off no matter what you do. Besides, I think retail is a lot worse. Much more idiots to handle than a regular office space.

Now I want to see both of these ladies at work.

And in Kria's case, I don't see her having much of a problem with either scenario :ipod

Does acceptable flirting include shoving a rivals head through their own desk, or better yet the desk of your interest?

I'd guess it'd do if your flirting with a demon girl and the person you do this to is not her...

Not unless she's  masochistic, but that's taking a really big leap of chance. May want to write a last will and testament, if you're that desperate.

Let me rephrase that: If you flirt with a demon girl by making a show of power, but you don't harm her  (doesn't matter with other people I guess) , it might work

I was going off of the whole "speed dating and fighting rings are the same thing" line in the Demonology.
