[Hong Kong's first day at his new job as a banker. Yes, being a barber was interesting, but this is relevant to his interests and much more of the kind of thing he's used to.

In other words: money.

You can find him in his office at the bank, wearing what is probably a horribly expensive suit. Which he's wearing in a rather obvious triad-esque fashion

[o-oh... oh ow how uncool HK, he just wanted to visit like a nice not!son and grab some lollipops from the front teller line and you are being the rudest not!dad ever.

hope you enjoy being hefted into the air, chair and all. throwing people out windows won't kill them, right...] I wonder how difficult it will be for you to get blood out of that suit.

[scentofbauhinia]

[looks down

blinks

oh it's you not!son]

...Oh. Hey.

[decadenzas]

Don't give me that. [not setting you down yet. at least he doesn't seem as inclined to chuck chair and country out onto the street anymore]

[scentofbauhinia]

[continues to just hang out up here then] ...That filing cabinet is filled with cookies and stuff if that's what you're after.

[decadenzas]

Oh. [hurhur semi-dropping the chair to wander to said filing cabinet, but pauses halfway there] That isn't what I came here for, though. [yes it is]

[scentofbauhinia]

Yes it is. [hahaha spins on his chair a bit and puts the phone back down]

[decadenzas]

Not at all. [rummage rummage] I just wanted to see how well you were taking to your new job.

[scentofbauhinia]

The Mayor wants us to put money aside for him.

Apart from that, it's okay. [helping himself to some egg tarts that he's hidden in his desk drawer]

[decadenzas]

Hm. Do you know what for? [ambling over to sit on the desk edge like the respectful person he is.]

[scentofbauhinia]

They just say it's for 'community projects'. [munch munch munch]

[decadenzas]

What kind of community project could they possibly be working on? It isn't as though they need money to hire the hazmats or anything like that. [reaching for a tart....]

[scentofbauhinia]

Obviously goes in his pocket for extra snacks and throw rugs for his office or something.

...Wonder how tight the security actually is in this place. [fake!dad is the base of operations for triad activity charles. you can't really expect anything else from him if he's working in a bank of all places]

[decadenzas]

[it's a good thing you have a fake!son with very few morals then] Not very, I'd imagine. Especially if most of the employees here are drones. It'd be too easy.

[scentofbauhinia]

[nods and looks thoughtful as he helps himself to another egg tart, but doesn't comment any more on the matter for now]

Almost done here I think. Want to go feed the ducks? [fffff]

[decadenzas]

[nobody will be surprised when you show up at the house one day with a safe full of money. also looking mildly insulted at the suggestion what is it with you and feeding ducks.]

If I agree to it this time, will you stop suggesting it?

[scentofbauhinia]

Sure.

Also we should get a puppy. [impulse purchasing now that he has a huge salary... oh wait. he was like that even with a low one.]
