Principles and Plans

Did you understand everything I explained?
Umm, yeah...
Good.
Then please sign here.
This part, this part on the next page, and this part as well.
Keep in mind, this part requires a fingerprint, not a signature.
And on the next page here... please fill in the blanks accordingly.
Claire...
Yes?
Could you... just do it for me please?
I cannot do that.
These documents require your personal signature. It wouldn't be right for me to do it on your behalf.
These are all essential documents for continuing the Journey, so please bear with it even if you find it all a hassle.
I'll just approve everything!
That will not do. Verbal approval doesn't carry any legal weight.
I cannot allow anything that goes against the rules even if you ask me to.
What? You want me to skip through the terms and conditions?
Unfortunately that will also not be possible.
After having the terms and conditions explained to them, the subject must sign them personally.
You mustn't ignore the established procedures, Captain.
Got it...
Just a little more. You're almost done.
Now we need to go through the training grounds usage plan for next month, approval documents for training expenses, and then...
About five more items I believe.
And so, the fierce battle against the endless hoard of paperwork dragged on until late afternoon...
Well done.
That should wrap up most of the paperwork.
Since there's no training scheduled for today, you can head back and get some rest.
What about you?
I still have a lot of work left to do.
In ten minutes, I need to oversee dinner preparations...
In fifty minutes, I need to write a report for the Observation Council, and then in an hour and a half...
Aren't you tired...?
Just doing my job.
The spirit of Candle Square's service is dedication.
Even now, many Saviors are working day and night to save the world.
It is our duty to support them.
As a Candle Square maid, and as someone aiming to become Master Maid no less, it's only natural that I show that dedication.
Of course, I get tired too... but that doesn't mean I can let myself falter.
That's why I always make plans and try to act according to principles.
That's amazing.
Haha, thank you.
Oh, would you look at the time... Please excuse me.
Claire checked the watch by her waist then briskly left the room.
