Once upon a time there was a cow who was reading a manhua, Dream of Loulan Kingdom.

Wow, thought the cow, this is really pretty. Well damn, there are only like 2 chapters out. I want to read more instead of doing what I'm supposed to do like homework.

And it so happened that the group scanlating this manhua went by the name of Friendship Scans. The cow noticed that this group was recruiting new members! This was her chance to escape the dreaded homework, at least temporarily.

So the cow emailed the group requesting to be a proofreader or quality checker; however the next day the cow received an email from Catriona which suggested her to try editing instead, specifically typesetting. And due to the cow's indecieveness, from then on, she was a typesetter.

Now after a few days of deliberation and nearly chickening out, the cow finally made a forum account and was pmed a little while after by a certain moon named, Tsukiko.

The pm requested the cow to do a most frightful thing, become the editor for the manhwa Girl! Now the little cow had never cleaned before, nor had she even signed up for it. But she couldn't say no.

It's okay if you don't have experience, you can use this as practice, the moon said.

Alright then... the cow decided.

So the cow received the raws to Girl and started her cleaning journey.

Unfortunately for the newbie cow, the raws for Girl sucked. They were really crappy, and the cow had no idea what she was doing.

Although she cleaned and cleaned and did the best she could, with the little knowledge of cleaning she had, the cleans were still pretty ugly.

Damn cleaning, the cow thought, I never signed up for this u.u. I hope I get the chance to typeset soon.

The cow waited and waited for the translated document, but the translator died or something.

And then during this period of confusion, the cow came across HR...

After assisting Golden Apple with a few missing translations, Catriona came to cow asking if cow wanted to be a translator.

And so the cow was assigned to translate HR.

Shit happens that the cow was oblivious to and there are various announcement posts from Catriona trying to affirm her power; although unaware of it then, cow now knows that this could have been due to Tsukiko.

And this is were the story becomes one huge blob due to cow's failing memory.

One day the cow received a pm from a certain someone, who many of us are familiar with, a someone named Pink.

Pink wanted cow to clean some manhwa. Manhwa called Chat and To Attract a Junior. Wanting work, and ready to abandon the horrid raws of Girl, cow hurriedly agreed.

And thus, the cow's love story with cleaning begins...
