Characters[]
Ginger[]
For the past ten years or so, Ginger has been having wet dreams about his childhood friend Rum, and always fails to see his face in his dreams. An Enforcement Department Team 3 member, Ginger resolves civil petition of the 3rd mankind with Rum. Transfixed on Rum as he has his back is turned, Ginger thinks at length how he wants to do it with him right now. Entertaining visualizations of grabbing Rum at once and cornering him until he cannot resist, Ginger has to grasp his own face and tell himself to stop. While he confirms with Mono that he was thinking about it, but not all the time, Ginger adds that it needs to be romantic and he will find the right time. Pondering how if he rushes and confesses his feelings and Rum rejects him, Ginger is doom-struck that even their friendship would be over. If that is the case the Ginger does not want to share his feelings, and wants to cry just thinking about it. He is further against it at seeing Rum's reaction to someone exposing themselves. Instructing himself to keep a cool head Ginger determines that this is not something to rush. then answers Mono that provoking him will not do. Tasked with dealing with a mob member who has a preference for blonds, Ginger thinks he cannot do this. With the man on top of him Ginger asks for the Mr. 3rd mankind, sir, to please calm down and think things over about the memories he shared with the person he really likes. With that dialogue failing Ginger resolves to escape and when grasped he warns to stop now or there will be violence. With Rum commenting that the man had no intention of listening anyway, Ginger replies for him to not make fun of him then. Finding it is always embarrassing when shirtless with demon wings once the unseal is complete, Ginger assists in apprehending the mob member. Speaking to him, Ginger knows it is hard but what if he shows the girl he likes his heart. The result may not be what the man wants it to be, but she will know how he feels about her. Asked by Rum if he is feeling better Ginger chooses that time to question him what he thinks about Mono. Laughing at Rum's indifference, Ginger then reflects he gave advice on liking someone as if he knew all the answers, but he doesn't, yet will keep on liking Rum. Greeted good morning and praised for his work yesterday, Ginger knows something is wrong since everyone is looking at him. Worried that Idea found out about his failed reformation attempt last time, or if it is an additional exam, then a suspension for being late, Ginger thinks he has too many worries ending with one that he will be fired. With Idea aware of how he looks at Rum he replies he wants to share his feelings but not right now, besides Rum thinks of him as a friend. Attempting to stop Idea from telling Rum he holds her arm while insisting this is not a good idea. Fleeing when Idea asks Rum what he thinks of him, and after focusing on Rum sucking a ice lolly, Ginger relieves himself in the lavatory. Electing to kill Mono and cover it up so no one finds out, Ginger hears his and Idea's plan to have him and Rum be together.
Rum[]
Ordering Ginger to wake up, Rum knows he is already late. Replying to Idea that coming in his uniform is more efficient, Rum then addresses Ginger that they are finished checking in so they should get to work. Speaking to someone's boyfriend on their behalf, Rum tells the man he will face isolation for harassment. Tying him up with caution tape, Rum informs Ginger if he does not help then he will take him into custody, too. After punching an exhibitionist Rum asserts he is calm, and cannot hurt him since it is against the law. Rum adds he just has a bad habit of smacking perverts as he instructs the man to stop waving it. Reporting that they are the police Rum states it his job to send deviants like him home. Also on the Enforcement Department Team 3 Rum has a strict attitude towards indecency mainly due to his three older sisters. Among the top ten fighters in the company Rum is described as a workaholic who finishes all tasks given to him. Explaining to Idea why he placed a spouse in isolation, Rum raises since the partner had no consideration for her was he really innocent. While deeming a special assignment that is to be done through reformation to be bothersome he nevertheless agrees to it. With it concerning a mob member Rum orders Ginger to go get him, tiger. When Ginger is caught by mob B, Rum does intervene to kick the man away from him before asking Ginger what his reforming average was. Thinking this will finish faster if they go to unseal mode Rum alerts the man they are going to apprehend him in earnest now. If he does not want to get hurt then he should stay right where he is. Registering that this guy is stronger than he thought Rum feels he should end this quickly, their shift is almost over. Addressing him as mister, Rum honestly does not need his understanding before telling him to clench his jaw. After Ginger speaks to the mob, Rum states that is enough, these fellas live in a time loop world and it will happen again. Today he learned that petitions can be handled more comfortably through talking, then Rum adds but more importantly is Ginger feeling better now. Replying that he does not like or dislike Mono and adding he does not know much about him, Rum overall does not feel like being too friendly with him, that is about it. Questioning Ginger does it really matter, and that is a funny laugh, Rum instructs him to not make Mono into an outcast or something, they are not children. Rum then announces that he is tired so is taking a nap. Asked by Idea what he thinks of Ginger and replying childhood friend, as a partner Rum answers Ginger is a little off most of the time. Responding that Ginger does not mind if he is a little cold, Rum adds is it not weird if he complimented him on his looks, that is all he can compliment him on. Wondering if Idea does not think so, Rum continues that Ginger has the angel face, one that has been with him his whole life.
Idea[]
The Enforcement Department Team 1 leader, Idea is the top ranked fighter of the Roman Company. She specializes in enforcement of monsters like 3rd mankind. Described as honest and straightforward, Idea is also stated to show weakness in adult situations. Treating teammates like younger brothers or sisters, Idea works alone without a partner. Noting that Ginger and Rum have come in their uniform again, Idea hands them today's assignment. Confirming Rum's work check-in Idea comments to Ginger that she thought he would be late. Needing to talk to Rum, she questions whether Ginger is down. Asking if Ginger could get over here, Idea shares details concerning a complaint where a culprit has had people experience facial cheek pain. Enquiring about the petition cancellation request registered today Idea mentions how a couple cared for one another so talking to them about their problem would have been enough. Remembering that Ginger is the reformer of the team, Idea queries why he is not reforming Rum. Springing on him that his comment was bing rude to his partner Ginger she adds if Rum keeps acting like that he can get suspended. Guessing she should give some help, Idea tasks them with a special assignment, complete their next one through reformation. Having called Ginger to her office she happily mentions for him to have a seat. Offering him a drink as she raises how Ginger is frequently late for work, Idea enquires is there a problem such as whether he has been having trouble sleeping. Leaning in close, Idea then questions if by any chance it is something about Rum. From his reaction, Idea smiles and concludes it is true. Having seen them together last week Idea felt something was going on so kept a close look. It showed on Ginger's face, always watching, then the dumb smile. Idea contemplates but everyone thinks he is late because he always waits for Rum. Speaking that Ginger and Rum are childhood friends, Idea adds it does seem like a challenge. Forgetting that Mono was sleeping here, Idea then acts on his suggestion to gather intel on Rum. Remarking that knowing the enemy and knowing oneself ensures absolute victory, Idea has ice creams that she knows Rum likes. She then asks bluntly what Rum thinks about Ginger. With Ginger exiting the room, Idea says how she is so sorry and wonders if she hurt his feelings. Turning to Rum she states he is too cold to him.
Mono[]
Publishing Team 1 Leader Mono designates all cases to necessary teams. He likes to make mischievous jokes and is described as a hard man to understand. Always appearing to be scheming, Mono is noted to be a surprisingly faithful servant of god. Mono places a hand on Ginger's shoulder and asks if his thoughts are what he is always thinking of. Questioning if Ginger is going to do it with Rum or if he is going to share his feelings, Mono speaks that Rum is kind of slow-witted so Ginger should be in a hurry, if he doesn't, a player like him might cut in. Mentioning to Gram that he was just helping out with Ginger's fantasy, Mono adds will not things go slow if he just lets them be. Mono just wants to apply some pressure, and corner Ginger. Having been giving Ginger warnings, Mono declares his progress is too slow. Having appeared in GInger's dream beside Rum where they both had cat ears, Mono questioned how Ginger could be sure Rum was on his side. Having slept in the office, Mono remarks how working late always makes it hard to get up. Finding Ginger and asking if there is an urgent matter he has to attend to after seeing Rum eat an ice cream, Mono says for Ginger to not be so cold, avoiding him after their last conversation. Placing his foot on Ginger's crotch (what he refers to as his 'bad boy') Mono is in the cubicle beside Ginger as he tells him to finish before someone comes. Questioned why he had to follow Ginger here, Mono feels standing outside looks more weird. Stating how sexual lust and hunger are all from the human world, Mono adds that bathrooms are also a human thing. Since angels and demons do not need to use them Mono explains this bathroom is like a haven who have urges. With his angel ability activated Mono has a visage of Rum appear on the lavatory stall Ginger is in. Stating his abilities only show what is imagined, Mono feels both he and Ginger are responsible. Mono knew Idea would fail, then comments she is quite unskilled for a cupid, having known that from her ID tag. Having a plan himself to help with Ginger and Rum he adds it is not a wishy-washy plan, and feels Gram's foresight could be a definite ability. They need to connect the right loops to fully understand the revelation and that is where Mono comes in to complete the revelation as the angel of guidance.

Caught by Rose he answers Mono if he thinks he will tell him what he was doing in the human world to a mere angel. With a tracking device placed on him, Lego finds himself under Mono's supervision. Called the overtime devil, Lego is to help Ginger help Rum. Not meaning to be rude, Lego rather liked Ginger more upon hearing the rumor. Fond of the greedy ones, Lego questions if Ginger likes Rum.

Perry[]
A Team 1 Reform specialist from the Enforcement Department, Perry arrives with Mananan. Usually taking care of monsters when matters were not going well, Perry dislikes tedious tasks. One day as Idea's reform partner when she went out on her own, Perry stayed behind to make emergency announcements or relay messages. Doubting Mananan will be partnered with Idea when she realizes he is referencing her, Perry regards Idea as strong and has been ever since she joined the department. Perry finds it adorable that Idea hit a 3rd mankind hard enough to break the dimensional barrier. With an emergency reported where a giant S rank 3rd mankind monster has appeared in the horror division Perry shares updates on the situation. Not sure what is going on Perry speculates maybe the Samhain[1] is starting early because it is nearly Halloween. Providing a damage report, Perry shares the cube itself does not appear to be significantly damaged, it just has a few scratches. Grimacing, Perry sees that a nearby group of recruits got stuck.
Mananan[]
Greeting Mr. Mono and commenting that he really is suited to working in an office, Mananan reveals he is the new recruit. From a military family that was established before the holy war, because of the way he was taught from a young age Mananan dislikes demons, and respects power. Because he was home-schooled, his social skills and common sense are a bit lacking, and he is not aware of it. Mananan has only come of age recently and has joined Enforcement Team 2. Laughing while sharing that he heard the talented people were sent here, Mananan then remarks there really is nothing impressive about this place, it is just a bunch of low grade demons. Reaching towards Rum and guessing he is at least passable, Mananan has his hand smacked away by Ginger before saying not to worry, he is not interested in demons anyway. Speaking to Perry he says not to tell him he is going to be partnered with a demon, he heard there was an amazing angel in this department. Contemplating Monday he feels he can read him so easily before walking past. Within the hexagonal slate where humanity's creations reside, Mananan regards it as all practice. Walking with Mon and thinking he does not look particularly strong, Mananan considers maybe this horror place only needs one person and perhaps he was tricked. Since Mon is a demon Mananan smiles at him but thinks he is probably useless. Determining that it will not hurt to humor him for now since Mon is trying so much, Mananan is then knocked away by a ghost like figure that emerged from a nearby cube. Pondering that he was being careless Mananan thinks he needs to hurry but is surprised that Mon is not fighting the ghost and sent it back without doing anything. Apologizing to Mr. Monday since he was being disrespectful, Mananan says he is more than enough to be his partner.
Monday[]
Nicknamed Mon he is on the Enforcement Department Team 2. Despite being a veteran and the second strongest, Mon is a pacifist. Partner less, he is stated by Idea to be strong, probably the only one apart from her who can go on solo missions, so is to join Mananan. Asked to speak with Ginger he dashes away from Mananan before glancing at him and replying everything should be fine. Kids these days are just active and Mon does not think he is a bad guy. Holding Ginger's hand Mon speaks that he will make sure he does not cause any trouble for his date, having also heard of the case with him and Rum. In Zone 6, Mon says aloud that this horror one is the zone he is in charge of. Guiding Mananan he explains it might not be as bad as Idea's zone but he still needs to be wary. Concerned for Mananan at being sent hurtling, Mon deals with the hostile ghost by patting it and speaking that he will come back later which successfully pacifies it. Speaking that the sick bay is closed today, Mon says to Mananan that he does not have a choice since he promised Ginger he would not cause any mess. Saying sorry, Mon adds for them to go to his room now, he will call Ginger so he can help them. Treating Mananan's arm injury there using a first aid kit, Mon explains the ghost was named Popo then questions is she not cute. Mentioning that Popo is a collection of malignant puppy spirits, they got close because they see each other so much. With most people capturing them, Mon felt bad just throwing the entities back in and never acknowledging them. With Mananan wanting to make a baby with him Mon is distressed. Pointing out that he is a guy, and that Mananan's family also does not like demons, Mon then tries saying that he is super old. Asking Mananan to wait, Mon explains his face is always red like this so did not mean to give the wrong idea.

Story[]
One day god spoke. In heaven, since god's children, the humans, have grown is it not time he took a vacation. In the land of the angels Gabriel and Uriel amongst other angels raise with God the problem of the Heaven occupant agenda. Humans have advanced rapidly, as a result, nowadays the human world and heaven have become almost identical in all aspects. Not only that, human intellectual ability and society has advanced so much that the divine power of the angels is not what it used to be. Temptation is of a higher level than the angels, and the deals with the devil are being disregarded at an alarming rate. In short humans have stopped depending on them, resulting in heaven's mass unemployment. The scope of activity for both angels and demons have decreased which Lucifer is aware of in his residence. With that, God has an idea to create a company where angels and demons can all work. God's children have created countless stories, endless worlds, and infinite life. Deciding to look after the 3rd mankind created by humans, God will have it be the first heaven and hell co-operative organization named Roman Company. This will maintain the world of creations, and that of the 3rd mankind. A motto on the sign is 'love thy neighbor' and they will enforce the morality of the 3rd mankind.
In the enforcement department, Ginger is being intimate with Rum. Asking to see Rum's face instead he views '09:05' across where his eyes would be. Waking from the dream, Ginger hears from Rum that he is late.[2] At work, Rum checks in with Idea and as Ginger sensationally considers what he would like to do to the former he is joined by Mono. After Ginger opts to not share his feelings for Rum, he sees all of today's prayers have been answered after someone was isolated for harassment. With an exhibitionist welcoming everyone to the show he is taken out by Rum. After Gram greets Rose he speaks with Mono who just wants to pressure Ginger into carrying out his fantasy.[3] Idea joins Rum before observing Ginger's expression. Ginger had a dream that Mono infiltrated and asked if he was sure Rum was on his side. As idea discusses the isolation case Rum partook in, she remembers that the reformer of Team 3 is Ginger. Enforcement teams are a two-person team of an enforcer and a reformer. The enforcer's job is usually a demon's as it requires combat skills. A reformer is usually an angel's job as it requires reformatory skills. Idea continues that some 3rd mankind characters have strayed so far from their original story that reform is almost impossible. Idea presents a special assignment to Rum and Ginger, to complete a task through reformation.
Considering the special assignment, it involves a mob member whose preference is blonds. Rum orders Ginger to deal with it as per the criteria to resolve it through reformation.[4] With Ginger finding the man above him, whose words are no deterrent, he is rescued by Rum kicking the mob member away. The boss is contacted to request authorization to unseal. With it granted, Ginger and Rum assume demon forms and restrain the man by tying the man up. With him sobbing how a girl he liked introduced a stranger as her boyfriend to him, both Ginger and Rum think the author has a sick hobby giving a mob this sad a backstory. With the apprehension complete the mob is placed into a black hole. Ginger opts to asks Rum what he thinks about Mono. After he shares a neutral opinion, Ginger laughs then thinks he will keep on liking him. Idea is present observing.[5] The next day Ginger heads to Idea's office with her having called for him. There, Idea reveals her awareness of Ginger's affections towards Rum. When Mono joins them and suggests it, Idea heads off with Ginger to find Rum. As Ginger focuses on the way Rum is eating an ice lolly from his perspective he runs away. Idea hears what Rum likes about him, who responds he likes Ginger's face.
After Ginger has stopped running he looks up to find Mono who has noticed his pants.[6] In the lavatory cubicle next to Ginger, Mono details how angels and demons do not actually go to the bathroom to it can be used to relieve urges instead. Activating his angel ability, Mono has an apparition of Rum appear with Ginger. This Rum asks Ginger whether he is kind to him in his dreams. After Ginger finishes he hears from Mono that Idea is a cupid hence her keenness to bring him and Rum together. With Idea finding Ginger and Mono she hears from the latter of the offer to help. Mono has heard that Gram saw Ginger and Rum together in a recent prophetic dream, however a revelation only shows parts of the future so they do not know how it will be actually turn out. Mono asks Ginger if he would like to proceed.[7]
