[Video] If you need something taken care of we'll get it done.

[scarletrequip]

Greetings Genessia and associated realms.

My name is Erza Scarlet and I represent the Fairy Tail Guild. We are a group of wizards, identifiable by this mark...

[She shows her left arm which sports a small stylized fairy emblem.]

In light of last week's attack, from today onward we shall be offering the services of our guild in exchange for proper compensation. [She doesn't say 'money' because she would be okay with being paid in strawberry cake. The others probably want money though.]

If you need something done please don't hesitate to submit a request. We will take on jobs both simple or difficult, however we reserve the right to turn down any request at our discretion. As a lawful guild we will not accept assassination contracts or any other task which would violate the laws of this world.

If you have any questions, I will do my best to answer.

[ There's a few moments of silence. He wasn't sure how well Fairy Tail would respond to this, but he had to try. ]

Any client can submit a request?

[ audio ]

[scarletrequip]

[She knows that voice well enough by now to guess who it is. Erza hesitates; she's almost afraid to find out what Zeref would want, but curiosity overrides her caution.]

That's correct, provided that they have the means to offer payment.

[ He's never had any need for currency - at least not for a very long time - but that is different, here. ]

I can, if need be. [ Too bad he doesn't have the time or materials to write a book capable of summoning Franmalth. He knows his way around a checkbook. ]

[ audio ][Private]

[scarletrequip]

[She takes a deep breath and switches to private.]

I'll listen to your request then.

[She promises nothing else!]

[ Zeref takes another pause, thinking of how he will phrase this to Erza. He knows she won't trust him, but as the highest-ranking member of Fairy Tail here, that sort of makes her the de facto leader for now. ]

I want to be informed if any of my demons appear, here. I need to know if being summoned by anyone but myself will affect them.

[onlybuildsawesome]

[This perks Wily's interest. If he hires these people to post up some of his campaign signs it'll make him look like less of a jerk AND give work to the people around here.

World domination, here Wily comes!]

No questions, but I may have some work for you.

[scarletrequip]

[It's that guy that gave Lucy a weird vibe. Well Erza's not about to turn down work because of a bad feeling.]

I see. What sort of job did you have in mind?

[onlybuildsawesome]

[Hey, he offered to help! Sure he plans to plant bombs inside their guild while he helps, but it's still helping!]

Well as you have probably already heard, I'm looking to become Guardian of Nova City. To do that, I need votes.

I'd like to hire your guild to hang these signs up in Genessia and all the sub-cities.

[He'll hold up a "Vote Wily" sign with a stylized W in the background.]

[scarletrequip]

[Who want's that kind of help??

Erza guessed that this request would have to do with the Nova City Guardian election. She's only met one guardian and so doesn't know the extent of the powers granted to them, so part Fairy Tail would remain neutral for the moment. Still, a job is a job.]

All of the cities? That's quite a bit of work.

[What she's really asking is "Can you afford that?"]

[onlybuildsawesome]

[People that don't know about the bomb part!]

It is, Are you saying that you aren't up for the task?

I suppose I could just get my robots to do the job for me, but I thought I might generous enough to employ you lot.

[Hey, he stole more than enough money before this whole "pretending to be good thing" to pay for this.]

[rules_winter]

Ahh, more Wizards.

[video]

[scarletrequip]

You don't seem surprised.

[As most people seem to be when hearing about wizards.]

[video]

[rules_winter]

There is hardly need for surprise. Beyond the decision of general announcement anyway. The White Council frowns on such practices in our human world.

[scarletrequip]

In Earthland, our world, wizard guilds are a fundamental keystone of society. We make a living by helping those who cannot use magic.

I assume the same isn't true in your world?

[video]

[rules_winter]

Humans are generally less accepting of Magic. If you can make them believe it possible. [She flicks a wrist as though throwing something away.] There are purgings if they get stirred up and frightened. Inquisitions, burnings. [Fae aren't terribly worried about it, but Wizards have more of a vested interest.]

[descendsfromshadow]

Hm... it looks like I might have some competition tracking monsters in Fayren.

[That was fine by her though. It just gave extra incentive for somebody else on her team to get a job already.]

... You're the one who helped Ruby in the fight, right? She mentioned knowing a few people from Fairy Tail.

[scarletrequip]

A little competition will keep us all in top form, don't you agree?

[She smiles.]

Ah yes. You're a friend of hers? I hope she only had pleasant things to say about our guild.

[descendsfromshadow]

Agreed.

[She wasn't particularly one to turn down a challenge either. Plus, it might be helpful to have somebody around to work with if a job proved too big. That offer would wait until she had a better idea of who these people were herself.]

She was fairly positive, yes.

[The words "awesome" and "so cool" had been flung around a lot, but Blake was a little more reserved than that. She grins a bit.]

I'm Blake, one of her teammates.

[scarletrequip]

[Erza has a similar line of thought.]

It's a pleasure to meet you.

You mentioned tracking, do you live here in Fayren as well?

[descendsfromshadow]

[It seems they think alike, which... probably wouldn't come as much of a surprise. She just gives a nod to return the sentiment.]

No, we have an apartment in the main city but I've been earning money by hunting monsters in Fayren. It's what I was trained for back home.

[And she enjoyed spending time in the fantasy realm. It was like something out of one of the books she'd enjoyed so much as a child.]

Hm.. come to think of it, you're the first people I've met here who live in one of the subcities.

[Well, there was the Attleton Guardian but she'd never met the man, only his thugs. She didn't much care to either.]

[thievings]

[ His interest is piqued. ]

Anything?

[scarletrequip]

I never stated as much, but we'll tackle most jobs.

[thievings]

My apologies, then.

Could I request my heart given back to me?

[scarletrequip]

[Well as far as odd requests went...]

Is it currently not in your possession?

[Because if he was trying to flirt with her he had another thing coming.]

[thievings]

No, which is why I wanted it returned.

「 He doesn't really know how he manages to function, considering his state of being. It's funny how karma worked. 」

I'm sure humans need hearts to function.
