Quackity's POV:
I just moved to a new city, I'm broke so now, I work as a labourer. My new boss is called Max Keller. He's a very intimidating guy from what I've heard. Scary. I wonder what my first assignment will be as a labourer.
"Hello, a-are you Mr. Max Keller?" I ask.
"Yes, that's me. Who are you?"
"My- My name is Alex." Everyone I talked to was right, this guy's terrifying, he makes me nervous.
"Aah, yes, Alex. I have your assignment here for you. You are to report DIRECTLY to your post, understood?"
"Y-yes sir." I grab the file he hands me, it contains all the details of my new job.
"A-a miner? I'm a miner?" I'm shocked. They want ME to go down in the mines!? I'm puney, weak. I'd suck at being a miner.
"That is what is says, isn't it?" He stares at me coldly. Damn, I get really bad vibes from this guy.
Whatever. I walk away. The good part is, I'll get housing until I can make enough money to make one for myself.

"Hey, are you... Jason?" My file says I'm rooming with a guy named Jason Craig.
"Yeah, you're... Alex, right?"
"Yup."
"What's your job kid?"
"I'm a miner."
"Oh, HA, so am I! I guess that wasn't coincidence, birds of a feather, right?"
"HA, yeah!"
I like Jason, he's cool.
"So," he said, "do you want me to show you to your room?"
"Oh, yeah, sure." I follow him to a room. Damn this room is nice! There's a large window looking out on a field of flowers. The bed is right next to it, so I can get fresh air while I sleep. The whole room is painted a beautiful shade of light grey, with light blue trimming. The bedsheets match the blue trimming. This is NICE! I don't ever wanna leave this place.
"How the HELL do you afford all this?!" I ask, shocked.
"Oh, I don't. The house is government owned, they make you pay rent."
He leaves me alone and I start unpacking my things. There's a dresser make of chocolately-brown wood on the opposite wall, facing the bed. At the foot of the bed, a large chest sits, made presumably out of the same type of wood as the dresser, as they are almost identical in colour.
