[well. adam has been here long enough that he's done with moping and trying desperately to get back. he doesn't think there really is a way, especially since he's heard some people have been here quite a while. it doesn't really matter though, he's able to visit vale thanks to that gate, anyway.

SO. time to talk about how he'll be self-employed.]

When I first arrived here, I met someone that gave me an idea. They told me they were a mercenary and perhaps I should look into being one as well. My work back home was.... along those lines, anyway.

That being said, if any of you are interested in someone fulfilling tasks that you don't want others to know publicly, I'm a very confidential person. As for my skills, believe me when I say I'm the best at what I do and I always get the job done.

My name? Adam Taurus.

I am not in need of your services at present, but it is an interesting offer.

What are your weapons of choice? Do you specialize in stealth?

[Private/Text]

[dramaticals]

Wilt and Blush is my only weapon, and it's never failed me before. It's a katana and the sheath acts as a shotgun as well.

[everything in rwby is also a gun.]

As for stealth- that's one of my best skills. I'm quick and move silently.

[Interesting.]

That is good to know. Sadly I have no work for you at present, but it is convenient to know those of the likes of your profession exist.

[She'll come up with some sort of test eventually, just to see if he can back his claims.]

I assume you may be contacted at any time?

[Private/Text]

[dramaticals]

Any time. It doesn't matter what time of day or night. I've never been concerned with time before.

[onecream_fivesugar]

Oh! Oh! I have a job for you!

[dramaticals]

...Yes?

[oh right it's ruby, the one that's overly into weapons.]

[onecream_fivesugar]

Alright. Here's your mission if you choose to accept it: I need you pick me up three boxes of cookies and have them delivered promptly to my apartment.

Normally this is something I would only entrust to one of my roommates, but they're all out at the moment and if I go then the cookies wont survive the trip back to the apartment.

Do you have any idea how terrible it is to go out and buy cookies only to not have any by the time you get home? It's terrible!

[dramaticals]

[...C....COOKIES...]

Is that really something a mercenary should be doing?

[onecream_fivesugar]

Yes!

Kind of.

...Probably not.

...No...

Please?

[dramaticals]

[for the love of dust-]

...What will you pay me?

[onecream_fivesugar]

Well I'll pay for the cookies of course and well... I guess maybe a $10 delivery fee? I can give you half now and half when you deliver the cookies?

I might throw in a bonus too depending on how you swift you can make this delivery.

[dramaticals]

[HE SIGHS SO HARD.]

I'm not doing work for petty change.

[onecream_fivesugar]

Okay well... What do you think is fair?

[whiteas]

A mercenary?

[ It sounds and looks like she's judging the hell out of him right now. After all, mercenaries? They don't tend to follow moral guidelines of any kind so much as monetary ones. ]

[dramaticals]

[....

time to be unreasonable.]

How about one hundred dollars? [HAH!]

[onecream_fivesugar]

Fifty.

[She's pro at bartering.]

[dramaticals]

Correct. I don't think you have a mission for me though, do you?

[what's so bad about that huh!!!]

[dramaticals]

Deal.

[she just got ripped off so hard.]

[onecream_fivesugar]

Woo!

[She doesn't even realize.

You just ripped off a small, innocent child. I hope you're happy Adam.]

[dramaticals]

Alright. Give me the details of where to get these cookies and where you live and I'll deliver them right away.

[oh yes he's very happy. he ripped off a small, innocent human, he doesn't feel much guilt.]

[whiteas]

She's not paying you 50 dollars to get her cookies!

[whiteas]

Ruby, I'll bring you cookies home tomorrow for $5. Don't do business with this charlatan.

[ She's going to save her.. She can't stand by and watch this happen to Ruby. ]

[onecream_fivesugar]

...I'm not?

[dramaticals]

...Do you have a problem with my being paid fairly?

[whiteas]

You're not. He's criminally overcharging you.
