Friends! We are all friends, indeed?[ST:n ]Which makes us friends in NEED, correct?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 2 |
|
qev086201_MSG0002 |
Uh...what? Sorry, L, I don't follow.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 3 |
|
qev086201_MSG0003 |
We wish to speak to you of a slight problem...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 4 |
|
qev086201_MSG0004 |
Hm. Tatsu will LISTEN for free...[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 5 |
|
qev086201_MSG0005 |
Truly a Nopon's Nopon, it pains me to say.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 6 |
|
qev086201_JNK0010 |
Guess |
| 7 |
|
qev086201_SEL0011 |
Ask L if profits are down. |
| 8 |
|
qev086201_JNK0020 |
Assume |
| 9 |
|
qev086201_SEL0021 |
Ask if L is having trouble with loan sharks. |
| 10 |
|
qev086201_MSG0006 |
What?! Perish the thought in a horrible fire![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 11 |
|
qev086201_MSG0006_2 |
Sales are wonderful, thanks to New LA's kind citizens![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 12 |
|
qev086201_MSG0007 |
If anything, we would consider EXPANDING our business.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 13 |
|
qev086201_MSG0008 |
Heavenly no! It has always been our policy[ST:n ]to run a debt-free business.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 14 |
|
qev086201_MSG0009 |
We'd be happy to hear your problem[ST:n ]AND help out if we can, L.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 15 |
|
qev086201_MSG0010 |
Splendid! We thank you for deciding in our favor.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 16 |
|
qev086201_MSG0011 |
So! As it happens, we invent things in our spare time.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 17 |
|
qev086201_MSG0012 |
Whoaaa, really? What sort of things do you make?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 18 |
|
qev086201_MSG0013 |
We're very pleased you asked![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 19 |
|
qev086201_MSG0014 |
...And we'd be equally pleased to answer,[ST:n ]were it not a trade secret.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 20 |
|
qev086201_MSG0015 |
Oh, come on.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 21 |
|
qev086201_MSG0016 |
So then what was it you wanted help with, L?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 22 |
|
qev086201_MSG0017 |
Unfortunately, we've been unable to procure[ST:n ]the materials necessary for our tinkering.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 23 |
|
qev086201_MSG0018 |
Resources were more plentiful[ST:n ]when we lived in Noctilum, you see.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 24 |
|
qev086201_MSG0019 |
Well, yeah, here in the city, we mostly have[ST:n ]finished products as opposed to raw materials.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 25 |
|
qev086201_MSG0021 |
Just so![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 26 |
|
qev086201_MSG0022 |
Yet the world beyond these walls is, as you say,[ST:n ]all about survival of the fattest.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 27 |
|
qev086201_MSG0023 |
Gathering resources amid such brutality is[ST:n ]difficult for us...more intellectual types, we fear.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 28 |
|
qev086201_MSG0024 |
Mmm, Tatsu know exactly what L mean.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 29 |
|
qev086201_MSG0025 |
He said \"intellectual\" not \"ineffectual.\"[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 30 |
|
qev086201_MSG0026 |
All right, well, now I understand what you're asking for,[ST:n ]and I think we can help.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 31 |
|
qev086201_MSG0027 |
Just let us know what you need, and we'll try to track it down.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 32 |
|
qev086201_MSG0028 |
Ah, wonderful! Splendid![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 33 |
|
qev086201_MSG0029 |
Thank you so very much for stepping up to the full plate.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 34 |
|
qev086201_MSG0030 |
Tatsu want more on his plate too![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 35 |
|
qev086201_MSG0031 |
I...have no idea what you guys are talking about.[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 36 |
|
qev086201_MSG0031_2 |
But anyway, it sounds like we're going on a mission for L?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 37 |
|
qev086201_MSG0032 |
You know we're going to have to charge you for it, right, L?[ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
| 38 |
|
qev086201_MSG0033 |
Of course! And we will pay most handsome![ST:wait ][ST:n ] |
