canon's thief: the dark project. looking at snowblindrpg.

[income]

Cold, deserted, and dangerous. Sounds like my kind of town. I'm sure I can even find a way to pay next month's rent.

[oh garrett you card.]

Question is: who will I be working with? What are they gonna want from me? You know I don't like sharing.

I wouldn't concern yourself with "sharing." If the costs outweigh the benefits, simply find yourself more formidable allies.

Why burrow yourself in further unnecessarily petty debt? [ lol "rent" ]

[income]

Don't always get a choice in survival situations.

[flaymignon]

[ oh aren't you precious ]

Death is always an alternative.

[income]

[and aren't you bad at stategery :)))]

Temporary truces sound better to me than becoming a frozen corpse.

[flaymignon]

[ :))))) hahaha wow okay well let me tell you a thing or two about corpses noobtoober ]

It would seem that you've overcome your fear of sharing already, boy.

[income]

[w :) o :) w :) ok then :)))))))








actually just going to give this guy a blank stare, because, what. except he doesn't care enough to actually say - what. he just sits atop a barrel, or something, arms crossed.]

[theonly]

What do most people want from hire hands? Loyalty and hard work.

Too much to ask, then just try for work. Certain that everyone needs a good coal boy. [A+ HELP HERE]

[income]

[bitch nobody asked your opinion]

Trust me, I know all about hard work.

[theonly]

[TOO BAD. I'M GIVING IT.]

And what of loyalty, coal boy?

[income]

[okay so this guy's just insulting him to his face. cool. garrett isn't about to get riled over that, though he's a little snappy with:]

If someone earns it, old man.

[theonly]

Earns?

Through... what? Great deeds? Trophies shared? Your loyalty is given, not earned.

[HEAR THAT? THAT'S HIS PFFT TO YOUR 'EARNED.']

It's good you know only of hard work.

[income]

[he hears it all right. does he care? not enough to react at all beyond a super bland:]

You've done nothing to impress me. I have no reason to give you my back.

[and leeeeeeeaning back more against the wall, ho hum]

[theonly]

I do not know a single king that makes it their life to impress coal boys.

Even my brother thought to aimed for knights instead.

[PISSING ALL OVER RENLY'S MEMORY.]

[income]

Fascinating.

[just saying this to irritate this suppoesed 'king'. maybe that'll make him go away.]

[theonly]

[YOU KNOW WHAT YOU LITTLE SHIT.

Just going to walk over to the lounging asshole. 'Course when he walks, he stalks around like a grumpy baby. But never mind that. This is a serious walk over.]

I am not so petty a king to desire you to bend the knee. What would it accomplish to aid in my goals to ensure my room is warm? You, however, should think hard on what it would mean to find one that is petty and that does not find your "hard work" worth sparing the whip.

[flayerhater]

WELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL.

There's this little thing I like to call expendability.

Milk them until they're dry then cut them down. Reap the rewards for yourself.

If you'd like, you can even skin them. Make yourself a nice warm cloak to protect you against those bitter evening winds.

[income]

[that's................. nice]

Best be heading back to your tavern. I'm sure they miss you.

[actually he sounds kind of entertained more than pissed off lol]

[flayerhater]

Are you implying I drink the rancid nectar of peasants?!

Good sir.

I am offended.

[income]

Not a fan? I don't think we can be friends.

[flayerhater]

Of bad spirits? No. I'm afraid not.

Though, I am more than certain you and I are still quite capable of becoming very very good friends.

I hear I'm quite personable. You should give me a chance.

[income]

Give you a chance because you're personable? I'd sooner take those bad spirits.

[flayerhater]

After I offered such valuable suggestions in order to ensure your survival and success in such a horribly dreadful place.

You are a very rude man.

[income]

[boredly:] I wasn't asking for suggestions.

[flayerhater]

I'm sorry--

[flayerhater]

--sir. But...
