[Joseph's wry sense of humor makes a brief appearance.]
It is hard, sometimes, when your way of helping others isn't very obvious or people don't recognize its importance. Or especially when you're villainized for it.
I try hard to put it in that perspective, though. If nobody was doing what I do, what would the world look like?
Well it might be missing some things but it'd be really organized..?
[ He bites his lip again, though, looking a little sheepish. ]
Um... thanks, boss. It really helps to know I'd be missed even if it's more in a professional way than a personal one. And... knowing that you have my back even when I sometimes make a mess of things really helps...
By color, shape, size, item name, and probably weight. And nobody could take anything until I was done. It's better this way.
[Phew. Well, he doesn't know where to touch on Mikado's personal drama (and doesn't really want to, from the sounds of it) but he's glad he could help somehow.]
I'm glad to hear it. Please don't be afraid to come to me if you need to talk or vent, even if it is about me. I'd rather listen to you than let you stew in it. That goes for Sebastian too, of course.

[ Good job, Joseph, you made him laugh. He might look a little soggy still, but much better. ]
And I guess you're right. And there are enough people here we need everyone we can get to help, right? So if I stopped, it would be a problem.

Your help has been invaluable. Remember that.

[ Mikado can't help himself, just a little. ]
Someday I'm going to come up with some crazy random thing to just put everywhere out of place.
But thank you. I really appreciate it.
[ Maybe he shouldn't tempt Mikado or he will get the personal drama though... ]
Next time I'll talk to you directly.
