I took these straight from the RP so they might be a little out of context but they still work.
Rodney slipped in through the window of his apartment and closed it behind himself. He began removing the suit he was wearing and changed into less obnoxious street clothes. Rodney stashed his new suit behind a false wall in the back of his closet. The new suit was working out great, his reputation had skyrocketed! Everyone was taking about The White Man delivering monetary gift to them. Rodney hated that, being called 'The White Man'. That name didn't sound cool at all, it made him sound like he was just some nut in a costume. Ultimately Rodney didn't care about a name, it's what he was doing that really mattered...a cool name would still be nice though. He had just gotten back from robbing one of the Governor's big treasuries. Rodney had a number of people that he assisted with his donations such as single mothers, starving workers, a few orphanages, a business or two, and even a slightly creepy homeless guy named Fred. Rodney stuffed all the money he could, without looking suspicious, into his pockets and left his apartment to make his rounds.. He wandered through the streets of Limina dropping off his little gifts along the way. His favorite stop he saved for last, Cicero's Place. Rodney met the guy a few years back when he broke into the pub while he was running from some guards. Cicero had heard Rodney come in and ended up sticking a shotgun in his face. Rodney was able to explain his situation to Cicero and he let him go. He wasn't sure what happened but this led to that and he and Cicero became good friends, often heckling each other. Rodney entered the pub and strode up to the bar and sat in an available seat. "It's just me, i'll have the usual. How ya been Cicy."
Rodney gagged a bit as Cicero stuffed the paper into his mouth...AND TOOK HIS BEER!!!! "OI, I paid for that! Is it policy for you to take beverages from loyal, paying customers like me?" Rodney gave up, he knew he wouldn't get his beer back from Cicero but it was ok, he had almost finished it anyway. "So what are you gonna do about Mr. Steam? What's the point of steam anyway? He just let it go, steam is no good to anyone unless it's cruelly forced through tiny pipes to make electricity. If you really think about it it's forced labor, the steam never agreed to make electricity for us, we just took the stuff and said Rodney place his hands on his hips and deepened his voice. 'Hey, your makin ma volts!' He then pointed a finger at Cicero as if to drive home a point. and it never got a say in the matter...poor steam."
Rodney looked down at the rag Cicero had hung on his finger. Rodney rolled it around in his hands, unsure what to do with it. He placed the rag on the counter and then laid his head down. Rodney wondered what he would do for the rest of the day, everyone had gone and it was just him and Cicero. He perked his head up. "Why don't you ever do anything besides sit around here? You should get a hobby...a girlfriend wouldn't hurt either. A girl would definitely spice up this dull boring routine of yours." Rodney waited for an answer but when Cicero didn't respond he continued. "Or maybe you have found a girl but your afraid she'll reject you cause your so boring."
Rodney sat and listened to Cicero's little epiphany. He leaned over the counter and brought his face within inches of Cicero's and stared at him for a moment. "You have one of those dramatic super-deep moments when you evaluate every aspect of your life and then come to some sort of freaky revelation." Rodney leaned back in his chair. "You get so nice after you have one of those, it's weird. And for the record it's 'White Man'." Rodney sat for a moment in silence then decided it was too quiet and continued. "If you have no time for hobbies or anything it's because you chose to lock yourself up in this place. Your kind of like the Hunchback, doomed to dwell here and serve others forever. While you're feeling generous, give me something that will make my head spin."
