[Open Video/Action] Grand Opening of Pawn Takes Queen
[It's the big day! The video opens with Roman behind the counter, giving the camera his best charming smile.]
Good morning, Genessia! Roman Torchwick speaking. I'm sure you've heard that I've followed Mercury's excellent example and decided to turn my life around. To help make up for all my terrible mistakes, I've decided to provide a valuable service to the community. To be precise...
[The camera swivels to take in the shop. Roman's obviously spent a long time getting his pawn shop ready to open. The whole place is decked out in his decadent style, looking less like a shady back alley pawn shop and more like a classy showroom.]
I'm opening a pawn shop! Today is the grand opening of Pawn Takes Queen.
[Is that a subtle dig at Cinder? Or maybe Weiss? Of course not! He would never dream of such a thing!]
I'll be having sales all day, so drop by Nova City and take a look. We also pay top dollar for anything you'd like to get off your hands-- provided it's high quality. If you want to buy, sell, or just come in and get to know the new, model citizen Torchwick, we'll be open until 10 PM.
[He's about to cut the feed when he pauses and leans in for a final note.]
Ah, and I hate to include such a bleak reminder, but if anyone has vigilante justice on the mind, I assure you that the police and I will have some words with you. I run a strictly peaceful establishment.
Thank you, and I hope to see you all at the grand opening of Pawn Takes Queen in Nova City!
Private to Emerald:
I heard Cinder got nabbed. I'm not going to pretend I miss her, but it is a shame that we're both out an employer. So if you find yourself in need of a job, or somewhere to fence the fruits of your labor, maybe we should talk.
[He pauses and gives the camera a meaningful look.]
If you can keep your filthy hands off my profits.

Private to villains, thieves, weapons dealers, and any other unsavory types who might want in:
Don't cross me out of your business contacts just yet. See, I got a few interesting concessions in my deal with Ice Queen...
[He winks.]
Top secret, of course, but it's put me in a unique position of power. I can serve as a liaison between our world and the more... [Air quotes.]"respectable" parts of society. Information, moving goods and money, organization and consulting... you name it, and Roman Torchwick will make it happen.
