Wahahaha! These legs ain't just for show. [ I really hate him Auste. ] And I'd hate to keep a customer waiting. So what's up? How do we do this, kunoichi?!

[kayssistant]

[At least Kay doesn't hate him. She's very excited to trick some people.]

Hmmm, you could drop by his place, pretend you're there to visit, see how long he figures out something is up?

[killful]

Anything goes, huh? Well, what's in it for me?

This service doesn't come for free, you know. This ain't the kinda job you can do for exposure!

[kayssistant]

Oh, well...I could buy you lunch, or something you like.

...Is there anything you like?

[A new bit of weaponry? Iron knuckles?]

[killful]

[ Oh. Oh no. You give him too much power. He could make her do anything. He could ask for money, or a car, or MORE money, or— ]

I want... a staff.

[kayssistant]

[She's too innocent.]

A staff?

[What were you expecting, Kay? A trinket? Something flashier? That really boggles her.]

Wooden staff? Like what you'd use to clobber someone you don't like?

[killful]

Clobber is such a strong word, miss! But yeah. [ Realizing how silly his request sounds, he starts rubbing the back of his neck. ] Ah, but not just any staff, though. It's gotta be red. I also want one that can change its size... Well, I guess I could have it enchanted somewhere myself if it's a pain in the ass to do.

[kayssistant]

A red retractable staff? One that folds up?

[Surely she could find one of those nearby. And maybe ask friends who knew about staffs.]

Is your favorite color red?

[killful]

No, no, no. It's gotta be magic. The magic part's kind of important... Anyway!

[ He can't be Sun Wukong without it! It's a long story. ]

Hmm? Red? I guess so! It's the color of luck and romance and all that stuff. I'm a lover, not a fighter! [ Which is a total lie. ]

[kayssistant]

Oh, I dunno, you can be a really good fighter when you have to be. Why not be both?

[It's not a bad thing to be both. Especially in a place like this.]

[killful]

I could be! I could be... [He looks off into the distance for a moment.] I might just be great at both! I'm just saying.

So what'll it be, kunoichi? Can you get me a staff?

[kayssistant]

No worries, I'll get you your staff. [She nods, and gives him a thumbs up.] I just hope I'll be able to find a magic one.
