Oh, hello!  I've been meaning to call about this lately, my apologies...  Back home, I was part of what you could call a favor bank.  We'd do whatever the client needed; clean up around their house, help with... romantic woes, and the occasional apprehension of a delinquent, in return for their own favors in

Sounds like a scam.

Hmm? How do you mean? It's just like any other banking system.

I seriously doubt someone capable of putting together something that complex and coherent could be this obliviously stupid and innocent, but that doesn't matter.

What do you mean by "romantic woes"? This may actually be relevant to my interests.

[befriendthewolf]

Sir, I seriously doubt someone so grumpy sounding could legitimately be such a scrooge and not in need of a friend or two. Shall we agree to play along?

Ah! We've helped quite a number of couples get together, but at the same time we would be capable of just offering advice.

I'll do it. I need some sort of hobby or I'll go insane. More insane. Something like that. Plus, there's nothing worth watching around here, so this is the closest I'd get.

Watching... You mean like movies? I must say that I agree; they don't really understand the concept of variety... What's your name, if I may ask?

[kinda_crabby]

They've got variety--different varieties of shit, that is. The name's Karkat. Quake in fear.
