Second Contract/Contractual Obligations

[lastfeather]

[1]

[Despite the recent failure at Lawdas, the Chalice still managed to gain a trio of new pilots. One of them was looking over the sheer amount of damage done to his machine.]

Well... damn...

[He's just running his hand through his hair with a grimace as he runs through the expenses. Repairs, ammunition, repainting, replacement parts... With the factory blasted to bits, it was written off as a failure and practically devoured his funds. He was going to have to work the everloving hell out of his ass to make up for this mess. He sighs roughly as he watches the numbers fall.]

Bloody Silent Line... Bloody League...

[The new arrival is at the bar... despite slowly closing into impoverishment he slapped money on the table, collapsed on a barstool and proceeded to make the following demand as he dropped his head to the bar-top.]

Give me the most expensive thing you've got. No. Actually. Give me two of that.

[Clearly his solution to dealing with having his money whittled down... is to waste more of it on coping mechanisms! BRILLIANT!]


[3] - Video/Action

Right... because of this contract I've got... I'm obligated to introduce myself.

[He's rubbing the bridge of his nose. His drinking binge may have gotten the better of him.]

My name's Ryou Kimura, I go by 'Onyx Zero' on the field. I'm a Mercenary of the Raven's Ark. We deal with dispute resolution. So I negotiate with people... violently. There's a lot of explosions and shooting involved.

[He takes a lazy swig straight from a bottle.]

I'll be working with you all... and probably be doing some Merc work on the side.. ..

[He seems to look off to the side, grumbling as he looks through a digital copy of the contract.]

RIght... and APPARENTLY... you get 40% of the pay whenever I go do my job. What is this shit...

So assuming you don't feel morally obligated to bitch at me, you're welcome to help me line your pockets.

Any questions?

... Yours sounds a lot more professional, I'll give you that.

Haven't been in the Ark as long as you have old bird. Things still blow up hugely around me.

All in good fun, just watch your budget. That last mission cost me quite a bit too.

I hear you there...

[Ryou's keeping quiet for a while. Gathering his thoughts.]

I can get why Naiza and I are here... but You...

Something's up isn't it?

Yeah. Let's just say that if I remained back with them, everyone else would have a considerably lower survival rate, including all of the people who paid to put me here. In fact, my last show may have lowered it by a few percent already and no... I don't mean the ones other people give you. I mean the ones you feel when you get shot at.

It might be. Nobody knows till it happens.
