[Ho hum. Someone is particularly pleased today. But who wouldn't be if they get to wake up every morning in a big, lush mansion that's all for themselves and no one else?]I do believe a certain good doctor is out of commission. How dreadful; we had wonderful plans. It seems I'll be keeping my eye out for similar talent until I can find a

[Curious Lelouch is curious]

What are the terms of this occupation?

[audio]

[sonofterra]

To work for me, of course!

[audio]

[zerointegrity]

What would I be doing if I decided to take you up on your "job offer"? Would this be worth my while? Would I be better suited to take a position with you than with the law enforcement agency? All of these questions can easily be answered if I am privy to a bit more information concerning this opportunity of yours.

[He laughs a little]

I'm afraid I'm going to need more detail than what you've just given me. That much I had already gathered.

[audio]

[sonofterra]

If you're at all interested in taking up any position in a law enforcement agency, or anything related, there isn't anything I would be able to offer you that would peak your interest. I hope you are being facetious and not entirely serious about that, otherwise I would have to save you the trouble and tell you that you wouldn't be interested.

[Oh, Kuja.]

Nobody said I actually had any interest in taking a position with the law enforcement agency, it was merely something that crossed my mind as a way to pass the time. It could prove rather entertaining, especially considering I've never seen how that side of the government operates.

[He just used his Geass and did what he wanted, regardless of "law." But, that's just a small detail.]

[audio]

[sonofterra]

If you don't have an interest in that, then where do your interests lie?

[audio]

[zerointegrity]

My interests are rather varied.

[A thoughtful pause]

I would greatly appreciate it, though, if you would give me a bit more information about this occupation so I can make a sound decision about what matters I may or may not be involving myself.

[sonofterra]

I'll be needing someone to negotiate trades between myself and others for particular items that you shouldn't be able to get your hands on.

[audio]

[zerointegrity]

Particular items I wouldn't be able to get my hands on? [He chuckles] You're incredibly vague.

[audio || screened]

[sonofterra]

Weapons of the illicit nature.

[zerointegrity]

[Quite familiar with various forms of weaponry, Lelouch smiles.]

Certainly, your interests are a bit alarming, but nothing I am unfamiliar with. If it's not any trouble, I'd like to get to know you a little better before I agree to assisting you in any way.

[audio || screened]

[sonofterra]

Not a problem with me. In what way would you like to get to know me?

[audio || screened]

[zerointegrity]

Well, it's difficult for me to agree to work with somebody when I know nothing of their personality, background, life before Somarium... Surely you must understand this.

[audio || screened]

[sonofterra]

Of course. How do you plan on remedying this lack of information?

[audio || screened]

[zerointegrity]

Why, arranging a meeting between the two of us, maybe at a place we can comfortably discuss these things without our discussion falling on the wrong ears.

[audio || screened]

[sonofterra]

My place does fit that description perfectly. As long as the idea in itself doesn't trouble you.
