Sleeping is no mean art...

[historical_data]

...for its sake one must stay awake all day. Or so Friedrich Nietzsche says. Though he probably meant that as a means to escape life being the nihilist that he is

Wait, are you talking about Barbie?! I shouldn't find this hilarious, but I do, hahahahaha.

It's good you managed to solve that mishap, though. It wouldn't do if people started thinking that Athena looked like Barbie, or something.

Great work, Yanagi-san! Get some rest now. You deserve it.

Yes, some child left her Barbie doll at the entrance of the Pantheon. Its use of plastic in its manufacture must have seemed divine at that time.

Exactly. Barbie's appearance is not fitting for the goddess of war and victory. Her classical image is that of a warrior not a disproportionate model. Ah well, it was an accident and has been dealt with.

Thanks, I think I'll do just that.

Oh boy, hahaha. Sounds like a mess. I haven't had to deal with something like that yet, thankfully. I'm surprised, though. Shouldn't we take more precautions and scan civilians for any potentially anachronistic possessions before taking them on tours? That seems like a practical thing to do.

Sleep well!

It was but now that I look back on it, it may be a rather amusing. Oh we do take the necessary precautions, but you can never fool-proof anything and a child that wants to bring her favorite doll along can think of all sorts of ways to smuggle it on a trip.

Will do.

Y'know. Without sleep, you'll go batshit.

Sleep deprivation is known to cause hallucinations and psychoses in people...but I haven't lacked that much sleep yet.

See, this is why I'm glad I don't need to deal with all that kind of stuff.

Most people find this type of work boring, I suppose. As tiring as it gets, I love this line of work so it's worth it. You probably prefer a more active job, hm?

[likesitfast]

Yup! I hate having to not move much - I constantly have to be doing something, so.

I see, one of those busybody types? I would have pegged you for an agent seeing as you enjoy the action.
