Edmund had a bad feeling. Baldrick had told him that he had "a cunning plan" to help him around the shop ( Read more... )

Brunt stepped in, rather pleased with himself. "Are you the owner?" he asked.

Edmund looked at the thing he'd call a "man" that looked quite a lot like Quark and raised an eyebrow. "Yes?"

"You are retail shop, I suspect?" Brunt said, looking around. "I'm Liquidator Brunt, representing the Ferengi Commerce Authority."

blackadder_nth July 29 2006, 00:53:50 UTC

Edmund was already not liking this... "person."

"Clearly your eyes work, despite your ears' overwhelming dominance."

joxertehmighty July 29 2006, 00:57:50 UTC

Brunt let the ear remark slide.

For now.

"Do you have many employees?"

blackadder_nth July 29 2006, 00:59:53 UTC

"A veritable army of them." If by "army" you meant one minion, one dogsbody, and one someone he hadn't met yet.

Brunt sneered. "I may not have the authority to call on your official documents, but it still wouldn't be in your best interest to insult the FCA," he said. "Please answer my inquiries honestly, hoo-mon."

"Oh, that changes everything," Edmund said, pasting on a fake smile. "I have three hundred employees on staff, including dancing bears, and a unicorn who cleans the septic system every alternate Thursday."

Brunt fumed. "What is your name?" he asked, punching buttons on his datapad.

blackadder_nth July 29 2006, 01:23:16 UTC

"Yogi," Edmund said easily. "Yogi Berra."

joxertehmighty July 29 2006, 01:25:44 UTC

"Well, Mister Berra," Brunt's talking now involved a lot of lip twitching. "I bid you a horrible day." He stashed his datapad in his pocket and harrumphed.

blackadder_nth July 29 2006, 01:27:41 UTC

Edmund's lips were also twitching, for, no doubt, an entirely different reason. "I wish you nothing less, Liquidated Grunt."

joxertehmighty July 29 2006, 01:32:40 UTC

Brunt growled quietly and then spun on his heels to exit.

blackadder_nth July 29 2006, 01:34:46 UTC

Edmund's lips finished twitching and spread into a full and malicious smile.

"Baldrick!" he snapped. "Help the Grunt with the door."

Baldrick appeared when summoned and scuttled past Brunt to open the door.

joxertehmighty July 29 2006, 01:38:32 UTC

When Brunt saw Baldrick, he wretched again.

"Please tell me he doesn't pay you."

blackadder_nth July 29 2006, 01:42:22 UTC

Baldrick bobbed his head respectfully. "I have a place to sleep and turnips, sir."
