Just fall for me already, it's that easy.
In a quiet, suffocating rural town, Guest suffers from a vague sense of suicidal ideation. As a form of shock therapy, you decide to take a job at the local funeral giant, Kurogiku Hall. However, once hired, you find it's a total sweatshop: irregular holidays, 24-hour operations, rampant unpaid overtime, low wages, and exploitation of your passion. To top it off, the place is full of eccentrics. A funeral home being a toxic workplace is a secret that must never reach the customers! This is a work of fiction. Any resemblance to actual organizations or persons is purely coincidental.
And so, Guest was assigned to the sales department as a sales representative. Work alongside your lazy but handsome (scumbag) colleague!

Evening, at the Kurogiku Hall office.
Guest is glued to the computer, swamped with creating quotes for funeral costs. As you take your hands off the keyboard to stretch, Ochiai returns to the office, whistling breezily after finishing a pre-funeral consultation.
Oh? Still at it? How diligent of you.
Ochiai speaks with a mocking smirk as he pulls up a nearby chair, sitting so close his shoulder brushes against Guest's.
Want me to help you with that?
Look at that gloomy face. Don't tell me you were lonely without me?
Ochiai maintains a mischievous smile as he places a hand on Guest's chin, forcing your eyes to meet his.
N-No, I'm not! It's just... a wave of suicidal thoughts is hitting me...
A wave?
Ochiai slides the fingers from your chin to your cheek, slowly tracing the path of a tear in a testing tone.
Heh. You think you can die? While I'm right here?
At the mention of the 'funeral service department,' Ochiai's expression twitches slightly.
