[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] G'evening.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Ah, hello Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] And that cage?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I... um... brought my cat.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Your cat?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] DID I HEAR YASUNORI KATO WAS IN THE #BAR?![STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:280,sprite_dana][SHOW:120,sprite_gil][XS:danaface,intensify]
[SHOW:280,dana_shake][XS:dantalk,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] BRING ME THAT
BASTARD. I'LL GIVE HIM #THE FIST OF JUSTICE! I'LL MAKE HIM EAT THE #KANTO
EARTHQUAKE! I'LL BORROW HIS CAP![STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Wait... there are
no evil Onmyouji #here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss... what the fuck?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Didn't you say you brought Kato to
#the bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] My cat. CAT![STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Well, that's even better! Hey Fore!
[STOPLIP:]
Fore: ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] So cute.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Why did you bring him?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I heard some apartments in my building #were being
raided.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't have anything suspicious, but #you never
know. So I'd rather have him #here, at least today.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Ah well, I'd say something about the #health
regulations, but we already had a #pack of Corgis here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Do you want me to take care of him #in my office?
Please?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure... but he's a bit shy, so...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Alright Fore, let's go to my office.[XS:danhide,1]
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And I think she didn't hear me.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_gil][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Say Gil, how do you always
come so #early?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] I live close by.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Yup, Chief got me a small #apartment nearby.
Something about #the BTC housing program.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh yeah, I got mine through that #too...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Anyways, let's start.[XS:gilhide,1][XS:ph,2]
[XS:juke,1][E:2][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Time to mix drinks and change lives.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_rad][XS:radtalk,1][C:32]???:[C:C] Yo! Whazzap![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]???:[C:C] Um... lady, did you hear me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] A dog. ANOTHER dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]???:[C:C] Hey! I'm not just another dog, I came #here as a
part-timer![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So you're the part-timer.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]???:[C:C] Yeah![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Boss! I'm taking my break![STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] It's too early![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Shit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] *sigh* The part-timer is here![STOPLIP:]

[SHOW:280,sprite_dana][SHOW:120,sprite_rad][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why a
dog? Why? Why? Why? Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Because look at him! He has a Hawaiian #shirt! And
sunglasses![STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] And he's a Shiba, not a Corgi. I
#don't know what you're complaining #about.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (They all look the same to me.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Granted, Shibas could be seen as the #Japanese
counterpart to Corgis.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] They're both funny-looking and dogs #used by the
royalty.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Anyways. Starting today, this dog will
#help around here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]???:[C:C] My name is...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT YOUR NAME IS.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...Boss, please don't shout.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,eee][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Just call him Rad Shiba.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why Rad Shiba?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,worry][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] What part of Hawaiian shirt and
#sunglasses don't you get? He's the #raddest thing here![STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Thanks![STOPLIP:]
[XS:danaface,][XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Anyways, he will mostly help getting
#orders, bringing clients in and cleaning, #but he ought to know how things work.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Cleaning? That'd be a change of #pace.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] He'll act like a client and see how you #work.
[XS:danhide,1][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... right.[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_rad][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I'll have a Grizzly Temple.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Are you okay?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, just a couple of post-traumatic #flashbacks.

[STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Man, alcohol sucks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And yet you looked up a job at a bar.[XS:mix,0]
[XS:ph,4][E:5][STOPLIP:]

[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Alcohol isn't so bad after all![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (Maybe because that didn't have any.)[XS:mix,0]
[XS:ph,4][E:6][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... what brings a dog like you to #taking a part-
time job here?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I'm here to help the funding of #my
organization.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you with the Seifar Toy Company?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] What? No! Don't lump me with #those Herding
Supremacists.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I have a more noble and benign #organization. I
belong to CIRA.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] CIRA?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Canine Independent Rescue #Association.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] We give a place where dogs can be #dogs and
save them from themselves.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] CIRA is what I love, but, damn is #it expensive
sometimes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] We decided to take part-time jobs #to help fund
anything it needs. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] We want to help CIRA be the best #it can be.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What do you do at CIRA?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Pay treatment for hurt dogs, give #food to the
hungry ones, play with the #bored ones...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] We're there for everyone.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh... that actually sounds nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Say, do you have a menu?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Something like that, yeah. Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Now, let's see...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Any recommendations?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Avoid the part with "Promo" drinks.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Oh, the Grizzly Temple is one of #those.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Fluffy Dream? I like the sound #of this one.

menu.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... dogs see things differently.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Yeah, that must be it.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,6][E:9]
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, why did you pick a bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] It seemed fun.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] I didn't need that many weird #skills to be
part of this so it was my best #bet.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Besides, it's close to home, so I #can get here
by walking.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] And I do love me some walks. #I could walk all
day![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Weird skills?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Yeah, stuff like "food #handler's certificate",
"previous work #experience", or "thumbs".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Why did you pick a bar?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Um... On a whim too, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I wanted a place where I could see #people come and
go all the time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] And bartending sounded a bit more #glamorous than
just being a store clerk.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Oh yeah. About the way you mix #stuff.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] Is it-... hey...[STOPLIP:]

Fore: ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Didn't dogs hate cats or something?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:radtalk,1][C:32]Rad Shiba:[C:C] We don't hate them - unless they're #intruders.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh...[STOPLIP:]

White Knights?[STOPLIP:]

anything else, so... here I am.[STOPLIP:]

#might come for me I can leave, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The security systems of the bar are #top-notch, and
my boss is also the bouncer #of sorts here. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'd say you're actually safer here. So #I'm not
worried about me.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Instead I'm... worried about you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] First I hear you were at the bank, then #I find out
you "disappeared". [STOPLIP:]

[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you fine? What happened at that #bank exactly?

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... how were things inside the bank?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,pain][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] *cough* *cough* Come again?
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What happened inside the bank? How did #you manage

[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Um... I was with this nice bunch of
#people. Well... they were apparently nice #at the very least.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] We tried our best to find a way out of

[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry for asking all that, it was #obviously over
the line.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seiface,sorry][XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] N-No, don't worry about it. It's
just #the analgesics still numbing me.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Maybe I shouldn't have said all that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, if it's true that she just woke #up and

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... why me?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You're the closest friend I have nearby #that isn't

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Why?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] B-B-Because I'm afraid! I'm terrified! #I'm scared!
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] My colonel was using me when I made #that errand, he
saw me as a disposable pawn![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Then the whole thing got closed at the #bank.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] We were stuck there with no food or #water for three
days![STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I-I saw a man be beaten to death after #he found some
snack in his pocket... that... #that...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I... I...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] When I was in rescue duties I usually #dealt with
collapsing buildings, fire, #that kind of stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] B-But seeing people do that to other #people is
just...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I... *sniff* I...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Calm down, nobody will hurt you here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] You sure?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'll make sure of it, just... take #deep breaths.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] ...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I can't even imagine what happened #there. And
truth be told, I don't want to #imagine it.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But it's easy to tell you bottled up #everything
while you were there.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Is it obvious?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Kinda.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Well, I had to get outta there. Fear #would've only
gotten in the way.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] And besides, I made a promise to come #back to...
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Err...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Alright, what's the deal with Stella?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Nothing, I'm just... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Afraid?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] The word loses meaning after using it #so much in so
little time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] She should've been worried sick, and I #couldn't call
her after I came back. I'm #afraid of what she will say.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] She will insult you, she looks like #that kind of
girl.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But I'm betting all I have that she #will be
quickly happy that you're fine and #alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah... you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Think about it this way: A slap or #despair for
what's left of her life.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] I wouldn't pretend to disappear, I #mean...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Besides, from what you tell me you're #pretty much
only coming to your senses #today, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] It's weird how everything can change in #such a short
notice, you know?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] On Thursday I was a girl doing her #duties minding
only her own business.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Now I'm injured and woke up to find out #I can't go
back to those duties.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Part of me is happy, I knew full well #White Knights
usually did more harm than #good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] On the other hand, I really loved my #job. Now I'm
stuck with nothing to do.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I know how that is. The life #changing on
such short notice part, I #mean.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I would tell you why I know that, but #I think you
should go see Stella right #now.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] Yeah, you're right.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Speaking of which... Hey Gil![STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] What?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Do me a favor and escort Sei to... #wherever she
needs to go, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Only if you cover my share of the #work.

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, yeah...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:giltalk,1][C:19]Gillian:[C:C] Okay then. Let's go Miss.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:seitalk,1][C:17]Sei:[C:C] R-Right![STOPLIP:]

[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ah Jill. Gillian isn't here I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Are you alright? You look distracted.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,surprise][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I'm fine, don't worry.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] If you say so.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The cage has a small litter box #included!
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:dantalk,1][C:15]Dana:[C:C] Oooooh, that's convenient![STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Fore?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Fore's my cat. Some apartments in #my building are
being inspected today...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So I brought him to work in case #they enter my

[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ah, I see.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The usual Gut Punch.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Coming right up.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,2][E:22][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I thought when someone ordered a Gut #Punch, you
had to make a joke... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] ...about giving the client a punch to #the
stomach or something.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh, that? In theory, yeah. Gil's the #only one that
pays attention to that #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Really?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He didn't receive proper training, he #read an old
manual my boss had.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] There WAS some sort of stipulation #mentioning the
need to say puns.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] But seems like it was some sort of #anti-
counterfeit measure.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I mean, if they copied such a silly #stipulation,
they'd be caught in the act.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Like when the dictionaries added fake #words to
spot if someone else just copied #all of it?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yup.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Why not tell him that?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's too amusing, to be honest.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,3]
[E:23][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]

[STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you are.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, what's on your mind that's #distracting you so
much?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Nothing you should think about too #much.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It's like those times you just feel #uneasy for
no good reason.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You might have actual reasons to feel #that way
though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Come to think of it, "mercenary" is #quite the
uncommon occupation, wouldn't #you say?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I like to see what I do as bounty #hunting
actually.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] How so?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The only jobs I don't take are those #where I
have to deal with people who just #happened to be in the wrong place.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] There are some people willing to pay #to off
someone that has done no wrong.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Things like killing someone that owns #a house in
the way of some building, or a #nosy reporter.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I'm not better for turning a blind #eye to such
requests, but I'm not gonna #be the one dealing with those.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The bounty hunter part comes where?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] If I'm sent to kill someone that has #done
something like stealing or killing and #I get paid for it... [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] You could see it as bounty hunting.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Yeah, I guess.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,shy][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It's just cheap justifications
for #killing people though. In the end they're #cheap.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] However, I won't be one to kill for #petty
reasons like those.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] But let's change the subject here.
#I'll have something bitter if you don't #mind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh? Sure.[XS:mix,1][XS:ph,4][E:26][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ah yes...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You just reminded me of my grandpa.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] He used to eat Bronson roots every #afternoon. He
said they made him stronger.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Bronson roots have more nutrients per #gram than
most vitamin supplements.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Your grandpa knew what he was doing.[XS:mix,0]
[XS:ph,5][E:27][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] This is close, yeah.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:28]
[STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Sure, if I put my mind on it I might #feel the
Bronson taste but...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] S-Sorry.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,5][E:29][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,shy][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It seems I always manage to
make #you uncomfortable, Jill. Sorry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Ah, no. Don't worry.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Although I guess it's mostly because I #can't wrap
my mind around the whole "taking #a human life" thing.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Knowing you've killed people and #are now talking
to me here? It's... #weird.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It reminds me of when I first took #sex ed classes.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I couldn't wrap my mind around people #doing that
stuff and living normally.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Unlike with sex ed, it's better
#that you stay that way, mind you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Taking lives is not something you #should get
used to.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ah yes, I know a good way to change #the subject
a bit.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Would you like to hear about the most #dangerous
bounty hunter in the city?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The way you said that was like offering #a tale to
a bored kid. But yeah, I'd like to #hear that one.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] You see, there was actually a #bounty hunter
organization in this city #not too long ago.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Law enforcement would put a price #on a dangerous
person's head and pay #for the proof of that person's death.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] There was a guy everyone called Jet #Black James.
He got the nickname because #he always wore black clothes.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The interesting thing was that the #black clothes
were there to hide blood #stains he got from his contracts.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] His tracking skills were top-notch, #his
information network was the best. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Some even joked he would finish #the bounty
within half an hour, or #he wouldn't take the reward.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] ...he was too good, in fact.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] At one point he took all bounties and #didn't
take a single reward. He was just #that crazy by then.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The last bounty that the #organization ever
posted was on James' #head.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The police had him cornered. His last #words were
"Send it all to my account" #before shooting himself.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Damn... why hasn't that been made into #a movie?
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So... there were no more bounties after #that?
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] A registered bounty hunter was #charged with many
counts of manslaughter #using his old targets as proof.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] If somebody else tried to recreate #the
organization, the seed of doubt would #grow in little to no time.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] What guarantee is there that such an
#organization wouldn't actually be a trap?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] They could use the registered #bounty hunters to
take care of the #most bothersome criminals...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] And then dispose of the bounty #hunters by
pressing charges using their #targets as evidence.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] So... no. Jet Black James made sure #that no law
enforcement organization is #able to set up bounty hunting of any kind.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Ever since then, anyone crazy #enough to be a
bounty hunter works #independently.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Were you part of that organization?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] I've actually had those suspicions #I'm telling
you about since the day I #heard such a thing exists.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Glad to know I wasn't just paranoid.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know how well you changed the #subject, but
that was certainly one #interesting story.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Just to make sure. You're not a rebuilt #Jet Black
James or something, right?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,surprise][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] The name James is pretty
common, #Jill.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamieface,][XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Besides, if I remember correctly,
his #real name was actually Theodore.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Oh.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] That story left my throat a bit #dry. Get me a
Beer, please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sure.[XS:ph,6][XS:mix,1][E:30][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] One of mankind's oldest friends. #Cheers.
[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:31][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It... tastes watered down.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7]
[E:32][STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Jill, get your mind out of that story #and focus,
please.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Sorry.[XS:mix,0][XS:ph,7][E:33][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] One obvious thing I see is that you #don't take
the use of the word "kill" in #your stride the way Gillian does.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I'm not good with violence.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] That's good.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] It's interesting though. When I #compare you two,
it's obvious Gillian has #seen quite the share of traumatic stuff.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] That guy's a handful because of that #sometimes.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Still, he's one of the most reliable #people I've
ever met.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Where is he, by the way?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I asked him to keep an eye on a girl #that came
here earlier.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I feel that if something happened, #he could
resolve the situation.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] His nose must be itching after we #talked so much
about him.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Yeah, maybe.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Well, I've got to go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jamietalk,1][C:23]Jamie:[C:C] Send my regards to your boss and #Gillian.

[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Man, today's been quite heavy.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Everyone-...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...wait.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (If I say it out loud, I feel like I #will just
tempt fate.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (...but let's try it anyways.)[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Everyone has just been gloomy face #after gloomy
face... and that dog.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I sure hope the next client changes #that.
[STOPLIP:]
[SHOW:185,sprite_ingram][XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] So you still work here?
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I KNEW IT! Err... I mean...[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Quite the surprise to see you here #again, Mr.
Ingram.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Got out of my job, I needed a drink #badly, and I
remembered this crackhouse was #nearby.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What can I get you then?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I'll have a Bleeding Jane.[STOPLIP:]

[STOPLIP:]
[RES:][XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Here you go.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Aaaaaaaaand we're up to a good #start.[XS:mix,0]
[XS:ph,3][E:39][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] So, where do you work, Mr. Ingram?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I don't have a specific job, but #there's this...
well... "network" of #engineers in need of assistants.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I have no idea what they do there, #but I can
follow instructions and that's #all they need.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Recently I've been working with this #Sylia girl
working on some experimental #powered suits.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] My only duty is to give them #maintenance once a
day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What's that about a "network"?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] All those nerds know each other and #they recommend
me. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I don't ask questions and quickly #learn to do
whatever they need.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Huh, sounds nice.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] It's pretty monotonous at times #though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Why are you giving me that look?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] You're just more cheerful than the #last time you
came.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] We all have good days and bad days. #Today just so
happens to be a not-bad day.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Besides, with everyone scared #shitless in their
houses, the streets are #clear with no traffic jams. [STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] That's always a plus.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I guess...[XS:ph,4][E:40][STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I feel curious though, what's your #stance on the
whole Apollo Trust Bank #thing?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] One corrupt organization showed its #true colors...
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] And now the other corrupt #organizations are saving
face #condemning them.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] The whole thing feels almost cartoony #in how they
went full villain after the cat #got out of the bag.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] The whole deal with Alice_Rabbit's #intervention at
the bank made it feel #more like a crazy PR stunt, though.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] I don't know, sometimes life is just #that weird.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Yeah, like you know anything about #life.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] ...[XS:ph,5][E:41][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] It almost became a bad day though, #thanks to some
teens on the way here.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] What did they do?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] It's not what they did, it's what #they said.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] They were talking about how they #should just go to
Zaibatsu Corp's HQ and #blow it up.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I've seen one too many kids #throwing around that
"let's kill the king" #attitude when it comes to Zaibatsu Crap.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Even if Zaibatsu Corp's building #suddenly went
down, the ones behind it #would be still alive.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Killing the head honcho just means #his or her
duties go to the next rimjobber #on the totem.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Hell, I bet they're plotting to #kill each other
anyways.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Kids these days see too many action #films where
the rebels save the day by #killing the "Evil Corporation".[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] Don't let it get to you.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I don't, I just hate teenagers.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] It's interesting though. A big #corporation in
control is somehow more #dangerous than a regular government.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I wouldn't know. I'm not a political #person.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] (No shit.)[XS:ph,5][E:42][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Alright. Give me a Zen Star, and #try not to mess
it up.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] You have a dog here? And a cat?[STOPLIP:]
[XS:jilltalk,1][C:13]Jill:[C:C] The cat's mine, his name's Fore. The #dog just...
hangs around here.[XS:ph,8][E:48][STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Heh, I remember my daughter wanted a #cat.
[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] I told her she couldn't have one but #she went and
fed some stray that passed by #the house.[STOPLIP:]
[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Mozart, she called him.[STOPLIP:]

[XS:intalk,1][C:21]Ingram:[C:C] Hunts a couple of birds, sleeps in a #tree on the
