Here. I've sorted these files according to how important or urgent they are, and whatever's left, I'll—Why do you look like you don't recognize me? C'monnn... Get these done so you can send me back out there already!

Ahhh... why did the little bunny run off when she saw me? Not like I'm gonna give her an airlift hug during work hours! I've been acting weird? Hah. After everything I went through, I get so excited to see everybody, it makes me wanna—Uh? You're not going anywhere? Then... a-one-and-a-two, up you go too?

How did you know I was researching this in my dorm? I'm trying to see how big my Arts can make the flames in this furnace, but I just can't believe—You got a tip about a fire hazard? Ahem, here's a bag of Cystymilk toffees, so *ssh* keep this a secret from Amiya, alright—Y-YOU WANT FIVE PACKS?! That's brutal! DEAL!

Let me do it, you rinse the bowls like this. It's not about making them squeaky clean, Yanese dining culture's just funny like that. Oh, there's something I really love about it, though—doesn't matter if you know your dinner mates or not, everyone sitting at one table shares the same dishes. So yap away while enjoying the same stuff, and bam! We're all friends now.

I made a few new friends on my trip to Baizao, went to a bunch of feasts, and tied up some loose ends. There's so much on this land that's unfair or unavoidable, and my work as an Elite Operator remains the same. It's got my blood boiling a little too—Oh, did I burn you? My bad!

My life's been pretty fantastical, huh? All those twists and turns and yet I survived, even ended up here at Rhodes Island—Is this what they call fate? If those accidents hadn't happened, I wouldn't be here right now—Oh, no, no, no! I prefer my life as it is, with the little bunny and you, Doctor!

Right, let's go back and visit your mom. Wait, I mean visit my mom? Agh, that's even worse! Uh, Doctor? You heard all that? It's less trouble than it sounds, I'm happy to take my sister back. I just wanted to sort this out first—my messy family. I guess I'll just have to get used to it, haha.

The image I have of my dad is a silly guy around my age—subsisting on crumbs, and saving his lunch money to get some treats for his baby girl. Huh? Sounds like something I'd do? Mm...I guess, but he could be such a coward, I feel like I just wanna punch him. I'm more like my mom there.

Yeah, you're the contact listed on my ID. When the day comes, I hope you're the first to hear the news, hehe. You know every single thing I haven't said, all my unfinished business. With this, I can throw myself into battle with no regrets. Wait, how did you know—I said I dropped it somewhere!

These sleeves are so tight, I can't stand it! Phew… Much better. *Ssh* Don't tell Leizi, or she's going to nag my ears off about disrespecting her clothes again…

Ta-da, I'm back! Yep, signing with my real name this time—Gu Zhuhuang. After stashing it away for so many years, I can finally write this name out in public. I'm still the same old me though, so just call me Blaze like you used to, Doctor.

Doctor, you know I've pored over these battle records, studying them inside and out, so you don't have to drag me into a watch session, you know? Wait, these are—No! Not the one where my tail caught fire! That's when I was totally green, I learned quick after that!

Phew—Gave me a fright, I thought you were gonna talk about work. So, this means you think I'd make a good Caster? Yay! That's an extra six hours of training for me now!

Yes, I accept. I know what you're up to with this whole setup. We've got an unspoken understanding, right? Uh, you're really just giving me the medal without a word?

There's something I want to try. Send me out on a mission, Doctor!

I'll BLAZE the trail for you.

The flames in the furnace are jumping for joy!

Surrender now, and I can still turn down the heat.

You know, it wasn't easy learning Originium Arts Automation either!

My blood is boiling.

Got the situation down crystal clear!

Air's burning my lungs. Temp's just right.

Step right up and taste my fireballs' power!

Triple flames, scorch the heavens! The furnace... how did the rest go? Who cares, won't affect my flames!

Daybreak? That's my boiling blood turning the horizon red!

Better run faster, before my fire swallows you whole!

I got your back, Doctor. Doesn't matter who's picking fights with who. Even bigwigs have to own up to their mistakes!

My furnace flame will burn as long as I'm still standing!

Let's go eat! There's nothing a good meal can't resolve—my favorite Yanese saying, haha.

If you're unsatisfied with the results, I'm ready to move out anytime.

Where did my drinks in the fridge go? I was only gone a few days!

Yikes! That's cold! My skin's too hot? Your hands are practically ice!

This furnace even has medical uses. They say it heals any illness if you smoke yourself over it every morning and night, with... what did they call it again—Aizhi? Aijiu? What is that smell?!

Arknights.

It's just fire, wh-what's got you all so into it—Uh... Amiya, Doctor, and you guys... Fine, just don't stand too close to me, or you might get burned. One, two! Wait, I did it? So peacetime flames can look as pretty as fireworks…

Hey. Gotta go train, see you later!

Doc—tor—C'mon! Put more oomph into it! I'm at my limit, it's over for me—Doctor, I didn't think you were this good at arm wrestling... Huh? I let you win? No, you beat me for real, I—Yeesh, just wanted to make you happy on your birthday is all, why not just play along!

I'm only third on this year's Training Room user rankings? Who's number one—DOCTOR?! Oh, so newbies use admin login before they get their own passes. Scared me for a sec there. Wait, then who's number two? C'mon! Tell me, no way I'm losing this year too!
