[The audio is slightly distorted by the sound of wind whipping around the Forge's speaker. Which means that Elena just has to speak louder into it.

She can do that.]Hey, we've had a few new arrivals lately, right? Some of you are probably alone here, so you really should look into personal protection... What I'm saying is, I have guns for sale!

[Voice, private] *chips away at backlog*

[eternalscorpion]

Hmm, I think you've hit upon a potentially lucrative source of funds. These weapons certainly seem to be rather popular.

And to answer your question, yes, I have some familiarity with the concept, although I've never been one to make use of their services.

[He chuckles.]

Of the three vices of a shinobi, money was always the one I had the most success resisting.

[Voice, private] *cheers you on!*

[wellsuited]

The original Shinra started out like this too. I'm not surprised that it's a hit.

And that's good! It means I can trust you to collect from the people who'll owe us.

[Voice, private] \o/ feeling motivated tonight woo!

[eternalscorpion]

I see. It's to be expected, I suppose, since I've had little difficulty here in finding employment in the past.

[He chuckles.]

And of course you can trust me on this. I've never failed to complete any mission I've been given. I'll see to it that they'll pay every last ivory.

[Pause.]

Will I have to wear the suit for this?

[Voice, private] you ate your wheaties!

[wellsuited]

Good.

[She repeats that word with a sigh, clearly relieved now. Her schedule is tight enough as it is. The help is much appreciated.

It's just too bad he can't see her face when he mentions the suit.]

Sure! That's how people will recognize you. A united front, and all that. Besides, I bet it'll look nice on you.

[Now she hopes she is able to make it to the Arena in time, less for work and more to just to see another suit in Dismas.]

[Voice, private] It's the breakfast of champions.

[eternalscorpion]

Yes, I can understand the value a uniform provides. It's simply a more...restrictive set of garments than I'm accustomed to.

And it needs more pockets.

[He sighs.]

But I'll wear it. I'll simply have to adjust, I suppose.

[And see about having more hidden pockets added.]

[Voice, private]

[wellsuited]

Maybe I can do something about the pockets. Itachi's teaching me how to sew.

[Though at her present skill, she probably isn't able to alter it into anything he'd actually wear.]

Maybe we can have casual Fridays or something. Oh wait...Fridays already have something.
