┊After the HUNT for this assistant,  his ears are forever hearing the echoes of his footsteps ; for boots have tre- -kked the HALLS for the missing man. ┊Weary of peeking into empty rooms  or excusing him- -self from that of OCCUPIED ones,  he can hardly supp- -ress a SIGH when he finally discovered him. It seemed that drunken fools were EXCEPTIONAL at hide-&-seek.

  ╒╣ ❛❛ Moblit  - it’s the MORNING. I’ve been looking for your missing ass since I woke up. ❜❜

His eyes grow wide at the declaration, peeking to the side to peer from the cracked window. Sure enough, a stream of roseate light lifts gently from  the horizon, a delicate trill of birdsong filling the morning air. 

Even through the lingering buzz of alcohol, Moblit has the decency to be mortified. He turns back to his superior, cheeks colored a ruddy pink. 

“I didn’t even notice it--m’sorry sir, I did--”

Another hiccup. The lanky man covers his mouth sheepishly before continuing.
