Do you still find it hard to make end's meet, Rose?

[He figures that she's just managing it somehow. Nanashi doesn't want to hassle Rose with too many questions since she's the type to get angry easily.]

I don't know about your work...or income. It must be hard juggling jobs with this.

I get around alright now, yeah. You really don't need to be worrying about that kinda stuff though.

[Leave the adult problems to adults, not to mention that he doesn't have any reason to worry about her problems like that. What's accepting concern from other people?? Unsure.]

I only have one job now though. It definitely beats having a dozen part-time gigs.

Ugh, juggling a bunch of part time jobs would kill a man.

[He doesn't want to end up like that in the summer. Okay Rose! Fine, he won't worry. ]

It's cool as long as you get around somehow.

Exactly. Take it easy while you can because shit's gonna get way worse soon enough.

[And that's not even taking Retrospec shit into account...... Life is just life.]

It's already worse enough. I don't know what I want to be when I grow up yet.

[He shakes his head.]

All I know is that I'm not going to become a full time thug. Gotta start thinking about the future more seriously...

[Gross.]

And that's why you oughta take school more seriously. That's supposed to help you figure out this kinda shit, right?

[Not that she can honestly even imagine herself going to college, but school definitely did wonders for the rest of her family.]

Think one of the guidance councilors said I could be a librarian or a journalist.

Do any of those options sound good to you? [It's not retail at least.]

Being a librarian sounds easy but boring as hell. [If he's fine with that though, who is she to argue?] How much would you be making from something like that though?

Probably a decent amount? I'll take something easy and boring over a dangerous job.

I don't want to risk my life over money. Do you get what I'm saying?
