[Ken bows to the device screen, worried and regretful. He would have done this in person, but he doesn't know how to get a hold of something of them.]

I wanted to apologize for my behavior this weekend. Particularly to Toph-san, Rita-san, the other girl, Lockdown-san, and Rita's other friend.

I shouldn't have used Lockdown-san as I did, as a slave. Everything.... I hope you can accept my apologies, all of you.

[Very short entry, after all, he's kind of still hating himself.]

Nobody cheats me outta payment.

What's with you all of a sudden? Last weekend you were acting all crazy and now you look like you're carryin' nitro.

[oceantrauma]

...I was cursed.

If you want payment, though, I can still give you that.

[ruthless_hunter]

[Someone just said the magic word.]

I'm listening...

[oceantrauma]

How much would you normally charge for the two days of work you did?

[ruthless_hunter]

Usually I take weapons or upgrades.

[oceantrauma]

Weapons.... Where do you get weapons here? [Even as he asks that, he has an idea where one might start.]

[ruthless_hunter]

Try the Underground.

[oceantrauma]

That's a place I've been warned off of, but if I can, I will try.

[ruthless_hunter]

You got one week.

[oceantrauma]

I-if I can't find any in one week, what then?

And what do you need the most? Or will anything do?

[ruthless_hunter]

Then I come and find ya'. And you don't want me comin' to find you...

As for payment, just get me anything that can hurt people.

[oceantrauma]

I don't want to be responsible for others being harmed. It is for self-defense and your job, right?

[ruthless_hunter]

Yeah, sure it is.

[Maybe less than half the time.]

[oceantrauma]

[Ken KNOWS he shouldn't fully believe that, but he isn't sure what else he can do.]

I'll look around.

[ruthless_hunter]

See you by next week.
