The Office is where most inmates are sent to if they need to report something or simply want to complain. A few inmates are assigned to work in the Office, but rumors say that these inmates are not trustworthy for they are working with the Asylum Head. Fun fact, no one in the Asylum has ever met the Asylum Head. He is only reachable by one phone in the Office. To actually see him would mean that he is going to kill you.

Puck grew tired of flying through the ceilings to the Office. The office was on one of the top-most floors of the Asylum tower, he wouldn't have enough energy to do anything if he wasted it all on phasing through the ceilings. He settled with using the elevator, and thankfully no one was really using it.
"This job is so boring, even though I get why they put me here..." Puck watched the lights in the elevator change as he moved his legs in a dance out of boredom. '...I wonder what he wants to know today. I don't have much to tell him, after all.' Puck thought as the elevator stopped and the doors slid open.
A red carpet was laid in front of the elevator, going from there and stretching all the way toward two large doors on the far end of the room. There were different statues neatly placed along the carpet. Puck knew better than to assume they were just pieces of art. Sunlight shined through the tiny windows, making this floor one of the few that allowed sunlight in.
Walking and whistling a random tune, Puck pushed one of the doors opened and peeked in. There were piles on piles of paper around the room and beside desks. Mannequin-looking women, no different from how the nurses looked without their uniforms, were all busy typing away. "Puck, there you are!" A demon boy, who also worked in the Office, called out to the sandman.
"Hey dude, back for morning duty- as usual." Puck waved at him, walking closing the door behind him and attempting to not step on any of the papers on the floor. "You'r earlier than usual. And your face is a little bruised. Got smacked around again, I see?" asked the demon with a smirk. "At least I take the time to talk to girls, unlike you." Puck said, returning the smirk. "I swear, it's like this office is practically your cell."
"Someone has to make sure the paper work gets done. Now get going, he doesn't like waiting, remember?"
"Yeah, yeah." Puck said, walking past the demon and toward another door in the back, one that had a different design from the rest. Entering the room and locking the door, Puck stared at his 'work station.'
The way the room was designed, it looked like it belong to some hot-shot boss: large leather chair, wooden desk, a large window at the back, books and papers piled around. The one thing that stood out was an old fashioned phone that sat at the center of the table. Puck let out another tired sigh as he picked up the phone and spun the dial once. Putting the phone on the desk, Puck sat on the leather chair and waited for his boss.
Ring-Ring-Ring
"Hello Puck, how wonderful it is to hear from you again."
"Nice to hear from you too, Asylum Head."

"So, how are the new arrivals? I know you've seen most of them. I made sure to get a few more demon girls- I know how much you like them."
Puck played around with the leather chair, bending back and moving forward, as he listened to the Asylum Head. Puck wasn't too sure about giving information to a guy he couldn't even see, but they had a deal and he had to keep his end of the bargain. "I have only met four new arrivals. By demon girls, I'm assuming you mean Ayaka and Midori. I don't know much about the East since I was stationed more around the Western continents, but I assume they must be something special to be specifically picked."
"Well, as you know the young Midori has a second mouth behind her head. Such a thing happening to demons is very rare and I have always wanted to study them, but they are always killed by their villagers before that could happen. Therefore I acted fast this time. Her family seemed a bit too happy to let her go, if you ask me."
"And Ayaka?"
"You'll find out what's special about her soon, my boy. I bet even you noticed that there is something off about her. Now, who else have you met?"
"My new cellmate Shard. A Gargoyle with no wings. I don't think we have any other Gargoyle currently registered so he might be the only one."
"That's because Gargoyles are known for staying within their community- it's extremely rare for them to venture off like he did. He actually left towns and cities in ruin while on his journey."
"And I bet he is still itching to get to his destination, no matter the cost..." Puck said, turning the chair so he could look out the window.
"Are you saying he might try and escape?"
"Of course not, I'm just saying that he'll probably be all confident about living here and try and get a free pass out- even though that's impossible. Well, anyway, I met this red gremlin named Meela who is also an engineer."
"Yes, I remember her trial. Who would have thought such a little thing could cause so much problems."
"Are you sure about letting an engineer into the Asylum and not placing her with heavy security?"
"I know it may seem fishy- but I thought she could make some interesting things happen. That is what you want, right? Go on, continue- tell me more of what you have seen."
"If you insist. Block C and the Pit are normal by all appearances. Block D lost another guard, this time at the hands of the Siren, Chamena."
"The Siren...She's the only one in Block D who seems to move around the Asylum. The rest don't leave their cells at all. I was thinking the best solution is to keep her restrained as well, but then I realized how boring that would make things. Not to mention the more guards she kills, the less I have to pay."

"Is there anything else?" Puck asked, now making a tower using the books that were strewn around the room.
"I am not sure, is there anything you feel you need to tell me?."
"Everything in the Asylum is the same as usual. Inmates come and go twenty-four seven! I honestly don't have any idea what else you want to hear about. Block D has been quiet, save for the Siren. So you don't have to worry about anyone in there."
"Oh I have nothing to worry about in Block D. As I said, those in there do not even bother to step out their door. It is more Block A and B I am concerned about. I ask that you, Puck, ensure the safety of Midori from Block A. I would hate to lose a Two-Mouthed demon before I get the chance to study her. Oh, and make sure Meela doesn't cause too much trouble. If she comes even close to escaping, I want you to turn her in."
Puck let out a grunt as he knocked down the tower he just finished building only to begin making a new one seconds later. "Fine, fine. As long as you keep your end of the bargain, I'll keep mine."
"Of course, Puck. I am a man of my word, after all."

Woot- that was what I was hoping for!
Hours flew by as the inmates worked at their jobs. It is now around 4:00 PM and those who have been working hard have become weary.
"ATTENTION. ATTENTION. IT IS FOUR'O CLOCK. SHIFTS ARE COMING TO A CLOSE. ALL GUARDS MUST LOOK OVER THEIR INMATE'S WORK AND MAKE THEIR APPROVAL. ONCE AGAIN, IT IS FOUR'O-CLOCK. ALL SHIFTS ARE COMING TO A CLOSE."

'Finally,' Puck thought. After nearly four hours of stacking books, he practically made a mini fort that surrounded the desk.
"Is it over already?"
"Yeah, I don't get why they keep on changing times every day. Well, it shows that they don't like to keep things consistent. My kind of place." Puck said as he sat on the desk and stretched.
"Thank you for your time Puck, and don't forget my instructions.~"
"Yeah, yeah," Puck said, picking up the phone that was laying on the desk for the entire conversation, "get rid of anyone who comes close to leaving the Asylum. I get it."
"Yes~ I wish other inmates were just as apathetic as you were. You even exposed the plan those last two cellmates of yours were concocting. Good boy, Puck."
"Whatever, as long as you keep your deal I don't care what I have to do. And quit talking to me like I'm some sort of dog." Puck said with an annoyed frown.
"But you are like a dog my boy. Or maybe a Mole is more fitting. The few who know what you do actually call you the Asylum's Mole, you know that? How amusing! I'll talk to you tomorrow, my boy. I can't wait."
Puck rolled his eyes as he heard a click coming from the other line, a sign his 'boss' was now gone. With a sigh, he put the phone back in its place. "The Mole, huh?" With a shrug, Puck unlocked the door and walked out of the room.
"Done already?" The demon boy from before was there.
"Yeah, he can be such a motor mouth." Puck said as he yawned. "I bet you're used to it by now, though." The demon smirked, "Well you can go now."
"Oh believe me, I don't plan on staying here for another second. See ya." Puck waved as he phased through the floor.

Hours passed by. For once in a while, the entire Asylum is quiet, minus the snarls of the Hellhounds and the night guards standing watch both inside and out of the building.
NIGHT OF DAY 2: END
You may all now return to the main storyline! All inmates must be awake by 6 AM. Jobs will be assigned to inmates in Cell A, B, and C by their guards after they are done eating/showering. These jobs MUST be done and your character will be assigned to different threads.

Since there isn't much going on in here, I figure it'd be okay to let Habhara's story unfold here. Fine with you Rieev?
[Enter]
Habhara landed at the doorway, having flown from down in the Pit all the way up to the higher floors where the Office was. Dusting himself off a bit, he went up to the front desk.
"Morning. I'm here to finalize the rest of my papers."
"Ah yes, certainly." The shark-man secretary thumbed through the stack labeled "GUARDS" and came upon the only one flagged with a purple piece of paper. He pulled out the stack that contained all of Habhara's personal information, collected when he had first been hired twelve years ago.
"You certainly know how rare these circumstances are, don't you?"
"Yes, I know. But honestly I would have done it sooner if it weren't for the fact I just kept waiting and waiting. But I've done my waiting! Twelve years of it! In these Hallows!"(oh man that is like a double reference lol.)
The secretary only chuckled. "Well, says here that you're final step is a meeting with Cerberus, and he'll be here shortly to see you. So just pull up a chair and enjoy your last day." His smile showed his double-row of teeth. Habhara grinned immensely in return.

Puck, who once again took the elevator up to the Office because got bored with phasing through all those ceilings. Walking down the corridor with the red carpet and statues, Puck peeked through the large Office doors. He saw Moortimier's guard sitting in one of the waiting chairs and approached him.
"Hey, you're Moort's guard, aren't you?" he asked, tilting his head to the side. "Puck, don't bother him, he's here to meet Cerberus!" warned the demon boy from yesterday.
"Oh...Well, it was nice knowing you."
"Puck! He's waiting!"
"He can wait a few minutes! I just wanna talk. So, watch'a do? Did ya' talk back to the big guy or something? Is Moort being sent to the Arena? Because I'd love to see that!"

"No no, it has nothing to do with Moort," waving his hands when he spoke. "I haven't got the guts to tell him what I'm here for today," his eyes looking off to the side. The thought of seeing the golem in the Arena though was certainly interesting. Moort might even last a good half-dozen minutes longer than everyone else does. "My job is being terminated today. Cerberus gets to make the final call and to put everything in order."

"Whoa, you're leaving!?" Puck said, jumping and staying afloat in the air in an effort to play shocked. "Wow, and you're not even telling Moort about this? Man, that's harsh. You know you're one of the few people in this place that he actually likes? Don't know why you'd leave him like that."
"Puck!"
Recognizing the voice, Puck turned around and waved to the creature standing nearby. It was Cerberus, standing tall in all his menacing glory. The anthro-Hell Hound stared down at Puck with his hunting eyes. The way he showed his teeth made it clear he wasn't happy seeing the sandman there.
"Heeey- it's the Big Dog of the Asylum! How ya' doing." Puck grinned, floating toward Cerberus and patting him on the back. In no less than a second, the hell hound grabbed Puck by the neck and chucked him into a nearby paper tower. The mannequin like beings on the type-writers didn't even react and just continued working.
"Stupid Sandman, how many times do I have to tell ya'- when you come in, DON'T LOITER AROUND AND DO YOUR FUCKING JOB! DO YOU UNDERSTAND!?" Cerberus roared before turning to Habhara, "Hello there, Habara. Come into my office, we'll talk about you resigning in there." He said with a friendly but sharp-toothed smile, a complete 180 from his attitude just a second ago.

He couldn't help but laugh when Puck was thrown off to the side. Cerberus always loved being around the guards, but the second an inmate got involved he always got into business mode. And business mode was the Arena.
"Certainly sir. After you, of course."
