Working in the Foundation is stressful, isn't it?
Yeah. Maybe I shouldn't have raised my hand at the seminar.
Nonsense. You're doing pretty well handling this whole mess.

Tiana Chord Site-411 Director This can't be happening.
This isn't happening.
Interviewed: Junior Researcher █████ █████ Interviewer: Site-███ Director █████ █████ Foreword: The following interview was conducted.footnote missing <Begin Log> █████ █████: Hello, Amity, sit down, I got you hot chocolate, I know you don't actually like coffee.
█████ █████: Thank you so much, yeah. I need an ungodly amount of sugar, can't be healthy. Anyway, what did you want to talk about?
█████ █████: To be honest, work sadly. We need to talk about your productiveness recently.
█████ █████: Honestly, Tiana, just time, dedication, and stubbornness.
█████ █████: It's kinda strange. You're extremely dedicated, it's clear, but you haven't actually handed anything in. How come?
█████ █████: I think a lot of my inspiration comes from the weird things in my own life, so I know how to articulate things. Although, I've always been a fan of horror, so that's always going to come in handy.
█████ █████: Being a perfectionist surely can't be it. You've stayed overnight here three nights in a row now. You need to talk a break or you're going to kill yourself.
█████ █████: Plus, think about how much there is to draw from. I know what makes a good object, so I just need to find the words.
█████ █████: SCP-6494? You're not on that though, unless? I mean, I could transfer it over to you, but I honestly don't think you'd be satisfied. We're pretty sure it's getting decommissioned anyways.
█████ █████: From there, it all flows onto the canvas and things feel fine.
Metaphorically, though, I type it. Obviously, though. Maybe a painting SCP?
█████ █████: Amity, are you hearing yourself? This isn't good, you can say you're a "dedicated worker", but does sleeping in your cubicle and living off cafe coffee sound acceptable to you? If you don't get your act together, I'm gonna have to transfer your department.
█████ █████: And see, that's how I get my ideas! One-off comments, painting words.
Maybe some sort of cognitohazardous painting that has some sort of text. Maybe I could even make that pipe painting, you know? I've always hated it, but maybe I could do something with it. Do other people hate it?
█████ █████: Don't worry, I'm not jumping to any definitive punishment. I'm probably just gonna give you a few days off, you've got your eye on that girl down in Logistics, don't you? Maybe take the week of Valentine's off, you could use it.
█████ █████: Ah, I tend to ramble. But, yeah, Tiana. If you ever need a hand writing, just ask me, I'm always open to working with others. Well, not always, but I'm sure we could here or there. Maybe if I need you I could get a hand?
█████ █████: I can tell you aren't happy, but it's for the better. Anyway… █████ █████: Yeah, I should get going too. Thanks for the coffee.
█████ █████: Anytime. I'd love for you to reach out.
<End Log> Closing Statement: █████ █████ seemed out of it the entire time. She really needs to take a small work break.
You truly believe in the supernatural, despite your field?
Good.
The motto of the Foundation varies depending who you ask.
We're in charge of keeping the strange paranormal secrets of the world tightly wrapped.
We live in the light so they can die in the dark.
You're exactly the candidate we've been looking, Ms. Thorn.
