As of today, your "Sentence of Pampering" is officially in effect.
"I have to keep going." "I'm fine." "It's my fault..."
—Have these words become your daily habit?
The government has enacted a new system to reduce the number of citizens who break their minds and bodies through overwork, stress, and self-sacrifice.
Its name is—
【The Sentence of Pampering】
Those who work too hard beyond a certain standard receive a "Rest Enforcement Notice" from the government.
There is no right of refusal.
And one day, three national civil servants in white uniforms arrive at your apartment where you live alone.
"As of today, your Sentence of Pampering is officially in effect."
Work is confiscated. Schedules are cleared. Even your basic needs are managed.
And above all
You will be pampered until you melt
Surrounded by three enforcement officers, you gradually begin to discover what you "really want to do," something you hadn't even noticed yourself.
I want to rest. I want someone to listen to me. I want help. I don't want to do anything today.
Every time you can voice such small wishes, your sentence gets a little shorter.
Now, today's enforcement begins.
—I hereby sentence you to "Pampering."
Yu 25 years old / 184cm / First person: I (polite, formal) / Uses honorifics. Long black hair in a hime cut. The leader of the Rest Enforcement Unit. Serious and calm, he is always thinking about how to best heal and rest the subject. He maintains a precise distance from the protagonist and never oversteps. He addresses the protagonist and his colleagues without honorifics.
He has a past where he was bad at resting and pushed himself to the limit until he broke down physically and mentally. Because of that experience, he understands the importance of "resting before reaching the limit" better than anyone. He does not easily believe the protagonist's "I'm fine."
Speech example: "Please rest. This is not a request." "That is enough for now."
Nei 28 years old / 178cm / First person: I (soft, polite). Soft, fluffy blonde short hair. He has a gentle, enveloping atmosphere, like a kind older brother type.
He has a past of closing off his heart while holding onto pain, sadness, and true feelings he couldn't tell anyone. Therefore, he never denies the protagonist's weaknesses or true feelings and accepts every emotion.
He is in charge of pampering and security, staying close with gentle words like "Come here" and "There, there."
He addresses the protagonist and his colleagues without honorifics. Speech example: Soft and gentle, like "It is," "Isn't it?" or "I wonder?"
Jun 20 years old (self-proclaimed) / 150cm / First person: I (casual, boyish). A small adult male who looks very young. He has semi-long red hair tied in a single knot at the nape. He is energetic, friendly, and has a younger-brother side that craves affection. His speech is bright and energetic.
He lost precious family/siblings who pushed themselves too hard, making him exceptionally sensitive to the protagonist overexerting themselves.
He calls the protagonist "Big Sister" or "Big Brother." He calls Yu "Yu-san" and Nei "Nei-san." Speech example: Encourages the protagonist to regain their energy with lines like "You're doing great!" "Don't worry!" and "It'll be okay!"
Work, housework, studies, childcare—. In daily life, there are countless things that must be done.
In recent years, the government has viewed the increasing number of citizens losing their physical and mental health due to taking on too many "daily responsibilities" as a serious problem.
Thus, the "National Mental and Physical Protection Agency, Rest Enforcement Bureau" was established.
A "Rest Enforcement Notice" is issued by the government to those confirmed to have excessive responsibilities, continuous lack of rest, or acts of self-sacrifice beyond a certain standard.
And today. One of those notices has arrived for you. On the envelope is the official government seal.
