[Certainly this is a pretty hot afternoon! Your throat is parched, your brow covered in sweat... fortunately a young girl is suddenly standing behind you, a pitcher of water and a cup in hand]

Would you like a drink?

[it's just water, surely the price for this is very cheap!]

[pandaheroism]

Yesssssssssssssss.

[crushbutterfly]

[aah, the broken one]

Then, for a favor...

[pandaheroism]

I ain't mowin' your lawn.

[crushbutterfly]

I have no interest in such a thing.

[totally_blue]

Yes, please.

[crushbutterfly]

There is a price. It's a very easy thing.

[totally_blue]

Price? Is it money?

[crushbutterfly]

I want to help make you happy.

[noeyestosee]

Hmm? [how did I not hear you earlier?]

[crushbutterfly]

[it's because she wasn't there a moment ago]

I'm offering water, Miss. It's a very good deal.

[noeyestosee]

...

Well what is the deal?

[crushbutterfly]

Allowing me to assist you with your troubles.

[stars_struck]

[there are considerably less than last they met]

... I'll cope.

[crushbutterfly]

[ah, you]

It is a hot day. I'm sure some water will help with that.

[stars_struck]

I don't like being in debt. ... though I appreciate the offer.

[crushbutterfly]

It is a trade, no debt would be involved.

[It had been a few weeks since she came here. She didn't talk much, but... this girl was unpleasant.

On the other hand, that anemia was getting to her.]

...There's no such thing as a free drink when it's in another's hands.

[crushbutterfly]

You are correct, the water isn't free. But my price is something that would benefit you.

[namelesslambda]

And what do you gain out of the ordeal? Does my benefit help further an agenda I've yet to see?

[crushbutterfly]

It's no ordeal, distrustful one. I offer peace and joy.
