Thank you!

It was already enough that a game let me go spearfishing in the morning and then serve the fish I caught in a sushi restaurant in the evening. I was perfectly content doing that and only that: diving into a beautiful ocean, hunting for colorful fish, putting together a menu, and then serving customers until closing time. Blissful!..
