[DAMN YOU GET HIS NAME RIGHT. Anyway, Khan is here to watch you ink your pages at a nearby table. Just leaaaning over a little.]

Finishing the pages?

[cakefesta]

[Leans over close to you. Hello there.]

Oi, you got 30 credits?

[putsitoff]

[CONTINUING FROM ABOVE] That's not coffee!! [goes back to his pages, god, they're a pain] Go find your own money!!

[and while he's on it, he covers his pages from Kahn... and Gintoki, why not] They're not finished yet, so don't look.

[didhishomework]

[He glances over at Gintoki. Sup perm.] I'm saving what I get up, for the most part. Why?

[Hey now, Hiramaru. Kahn was just curious.] Just asking. I wasn't planning on looking yet.

[cakefesta]

Nothing. I just wanted some coffee.

[Shrugs]

Artists. They're all sensitive about their work. Don't take it personally.

[didhishomework]

...coffee is 30 credits?

I'm trying not to. I saw his folder, he really doesn't want anyone looking at what he draws.

[cakefesta]

Yes.

Eh. Artists. Sorachi cries every time he has to hand over a completed chapter for printing.

[cakefesta]

Come to think of it, so does his editor.

[cakefesta]

I think they're tears of shame, actually.

[didhishomework]

I'm not sure if I can give them up just like that. I kind of need them for food.

I guess some mangakas just have better luck than others. I'm not sure if I know who Sorachi is, but if it's that bad, I feel for the general public that has to actually read the finished product.

[cakefesta]

What a coincidence. I need them for food too.

Yeah. We do too, sometimes.

[didhishomework]

Then save your own credits.

I guess it could be worse. Some animes get stuck with horrendous animation, despite the artwork put into it.

[cakefesta]

What do you mean? It says coffee right there.

[putsitoff]

[points at it] That thing? Trust me, it has two drops of coffee! Three at most! It's a complete sham, and it'd be better for you to just get some of that instant coffee and make it yourself!

[and now, to Kahn] Good. I'll tell you when they're ready, and then maybe you can look.

[cakefesta]

TWO DROPS IS ENOUGH! TWO DROPS IS MORE THAN ENOUGH!

[putsitoff]

Two drops can't even get you through fifteen minutes of an all-nighter!! And that thing is not worth 30 credits anyway, you're being ripped off!
