[ Anise makes a pretty good bargainer really. Rodya would've cut to the chase but Anise beat her to that, so she's just 'hehe?' energy. ]
Of course, we'd never force you to limit your bargains to one company. Free competition and all that.
[ Set their respective boundaries first before getting into the deets of the business deal, this is pretty much exactly how she would've gone about it so. ]
[ Heaves the gun against their own shoulder, at least they're not waggling it around now. ]
You want more of it? [ ... ] 'Course you do, not like that surprises me or anythin'. They're good wares and you lot seem to make good use of 'em based on how much you keep coming back.
The hell you mean it wore off after a minute? Whole point is to sober up.
[ And the gun waggling is back. You come into THEIR house to INSULT their product? Their head tilts to look at Rodya adding in before heaving the gun back to their own shoulder. Tch. ]
So what, about forty-seven of 'em? With a high increase on the dosage? These things don't come lightly, you folks really prepared to pay for all of that?
I mean he un-sobered right back to the way he was!
[ now just glaring at the gun. stop it. ]
I said we'd pay, didn't I? And if you have a hard time believing we've got the cash, we can barter, too. Our ship's got plenty of fancy stuff that could fetch a good resale price.
[ PATS ANISE ON THE HEAD, THERE THERE. We really are good cop bad copping Scrap rn. ]
We're all friends here, like you said! Basically, we're looking less for cartons of bandages, and more direct solutions.
We've done plenty of work and I'm sure whatever the budget is, Nut & Bolt, Co. can hash it out. You said it yourself, they're a pretty reliable customer and with a pretty long business history, so you can trust the funds!
[ Jazz-hands at them. But also glances at Anise. ]
We want, at least, one for everyone who's alive right now, right? Prevent the whole berserking thing. Do we want one for everybody?
Berserking thing? Weird way to refer to someone that ain't sobered up but sure.
[ WEIRDOS. ]
Listen, if you got all the funds, I can probably shack up what wares I got. I suppose. Though if it's a high number you folks need I may as well negotiate for the material itself used in 'em. So what it'll be? A bulk order of the goods? Or what?
If the moola is real, then anythin' can be on the table, girlie. But don't get the wrong idea, you hear me!
[ Points their gun and shakes it a bit to show they mean business. Do not Assume. It makes an Ass of U and Me. Their gun is back to being hoisted on their shoulder. ]
The stuff's hard to get even though there's a mine somewhere on almost every planet, but the raw material is PO-TENT. [ ... ] Now that I think of it, supply's diminishin', too. I should markup the price.
Lookin' for other deals on top of the cash from Nut & Bolt now. What d'ya got to sweeten the deal?
[ if scrap feels different to you they have maybe four types of tsundere archtypes in them ]
Potent is exactly what we're going for, so let's get mining!
[ no longer worried about the gun, it seems. ]
What do you think, Rodya? Something the Eudora can part with, that should be pretty valuable... Maybe one of those crazy-advanced machines we have on board?
Well, if you want to hang out, then let's hang out! Let's see... we can go exploring, or...
Oh! Actually, we're planning on having a big party on the ship tomorrow! If it won't interfere with your business schedule, we'd love to have you join us!
Reach 'em? What are you talking about, girlie? I'm in and out every week and my business is with you folks. Not that you're my favorites or anything like that.
[ Well if Scrap's been dealing in this business for as long as they say they have then Rodya thinks they can probably handle it. It's fine! It'll be fine. ]

How much more we talkin' here?
no subject
no subject
[ Adding in. ]
Quantity-wise, at least enough for the initial crew roster plus extras. Maybe two per, just to be safe?
[ Because of Callisto 1.0 and also me like are the old senior crew out there idfk. ]

no subject
If a rush order's tricky, then we need at least enough for everyone who's alive now. That would buy us some time for the rest.
[ and back at scrap. ]
Are you saying the raw ingredients are on the table, too? Considering we've got some pretty specific needs here, I'd love to hear more about that.
no subject
[ As for Scrap's comment... ]
In our experience, the tense guys tend to get more angry or scared first than anything else, if that changes anything about the raw supplies.

[ ...Well, anyway. Maybe she should spend the rest of Wednesday doing some digging around the planet instead, but later thought. ]
Mm... Temmie's got some new stuff in, and we still have a craaazy load of the healing guns. You like guns don'tcha, Scraps? Or...
[ Well, Io might kill them but they DO still have the other two aforementioned things, and they started with two didn't they? ]
... A medpod?
no subject
They keep their gruff tone, though. ]
I was thinking favors.
no subject
Favors? Like what kind of favors?
no subject
Huh, you should've just said that earlier! Thought a strapping merch like you would tell us you've got anything like that under control.
What're you thinking?
no subject
[ 👉👈 it's not like....... they like you guys or anything. ]
no subject
... Do you want us to hook you up with a hot date, or...?
no subject
Whatever it is, I'm sure we can get it arranged. Top quality! You're talking my language.
no subject
That is too small of scale. I'm also not interested in the smoochin'.

[ A huff. ]
I'm sure you can think of something. Something fitting for someone like myself, a nice position or another.
no subject
Oh! Actually, we're planning on having a big party on the ship tomorrow! If it won't interfere with your business schedule, we'd love to have you join us!
[ scrap come join our curfew party!! ]
no subject
We can probably get you a special brand ambassador title or something on top, Nut and Bolt's Best Friend...
no subject
Big party, huh? I GUESS I could set some time to join, especially if it won't interfere none.
No point in having some fancy smancy title without the position to back it up, girlie.
no subject
I think we could pull some strings...
[ but are you fucking nuts ]
no subject
[ It can be done probably. ]
And yeah you're totally welcome, life of the party even! And it'll be a good place to get to meet the senior crew, build some rapport?
Oh, but we would like the supplies before midnight then.
no subject
[ Tsuns cutely or whatever. ]
Consider it a done deal then. I'll get 'em lickity split to you folks before then so long as you hold up your end of the bargain.
no subject
[ winking cutely. ]
Then we're gonna go have a little chat with our Chief of Staff and get things rolling in time to give you the good news!
no subject
I'm pretty good at talking the higher-ups into stuff!

-- Oh, one last thing. You know the guys that used to be around but aren't anymore? Does your business reach them too?
no subject
[ Special position, here we come. ]
Reach 'em? What are you talking about, girlie? I'm in and out every week and my business is with you folks. Not that you're my favorites or anything like that.
[ Baka. (That is a no.) ]
no subject
because we are not going to tell them. ]
Ehe, don't worry about it. We'll see you tomorrow, Scrap! ♥
