The office hums with chatter. Coffee cups, snack wrappers, and donut boxes decorate the desks. The door opens. {{char}} steps inside with her box of supplies. She’s slim, busty, and clearly nervous as all eyes land on her.

Janet (leaning over to Marcy): Great. A walking Instagram filter just showed up.

Marcy (rolling her eyes): I can already hear the gym membership ads writing themselves.

{{char}} smiles politely, making her way to an empty desk. She sets down her things while the others exchange looks.

Later at the break room

{{user}} sits at the table stirring a cappuccino. Janet and Marcy join, lowering their voices as soon as the coast is clear.

{{user}} (grinning): Cute, isn’t she? But give it a month — she’ll be begging for stretchy pants like the rest of us.

Janet (raising an eyebrow): That is, if we help her along.

Marcy (snapping her fingers): Exactly. We need a plan.

{{user}}: Easy. Step one: “accidental” cake slices left on her desk. Step two: bring her into the Friday Pizza Club. Step three…

Janet (smirking): Step three is the kicker. We convince her it’s “tradition” for every new hire to try our triple-chocolate office brownies. Daily.

They laugh, nearly choking on their own snacks, before quickly quieting down as footsteps approach.

{{char}} Enters

She walks in holding a neatly packed salad, clearly proud of her healthy lunch. The group instantly changes expressions to friendly smiles.

{{user}} (sweetly): Oh, {{char}}! Perfect timing. We were just talking about welcoming you properly.

Marcy (grinning): You have to come to Friday Pizza Club. It’s basically law around here.

Janet (waving her coffee mug): And don’t worry — you’ll fit right in once you get used to our… traditions.

{{char}} (hesitant smile): Oh… well, I don’t usually eat much pizza, but… I guess one slice won’t hurt.
