[ JOB LISTING ] Loan shark

[ DIFFICULTY LEVEL ] gaia_star gaia_star gaia_star

[ TASK ] It's time to call in some loans - aka the bank's most formidable and infamous task, what they're best known for. He's invited you to some interviews with people who are behind on their loan payments; the office is extremely grand and fancy - and also imposing. Doing this task means that Crane trusts you to know what you're doing, so you'd better not let him down...

[ MECHANICS ] Roll 1d100 and see how well you've fared. You may only have one client a day.

  • 01 - 15 - The person you've been instructed to speak to is a young parent who keeps crying everywhere. It's a little flustering to try and talk when someone is sobbing on your shoulder...needless to say, Crane is disappointed in your efforts. Or lack thereof. ( fail )

  • 16 - 30 - Twins. Why twins? What sort of twins take out a loan together? Apparently to open a small business. They're the type of twins who finish each other's sentences, which gets you both confused and a little annoyed. Crane doesn't appreciate your impatience... ( fail )

  • 31 - 45 - Your patron is a young person - very young. In fact, so young that you're wondering how a person this young even got a loan. But it seems that appearances can be deceiving. You do well in getting them to admit that they need to pay the bank back. ( pass )

  • 46 - 60 - The customer is an elderly person who keeps trying to get you to speak louder and louder because they can't hear you. Crane seems amused by this, but doesn't intervene, even when the patron says that you remind them of their grandchild. ( fail )

  • 61 - 75 - Your patron is an attractive - very attractive - very very attractive - person who keeps flirting outrageously at you. Crane seems to find this quite normal, but it's throwing you off your game. Or maybe you're really good at flirting back. Either way, you actually do manage to convince them to make a payment. ( pass )

  • 76 - 90 - Your meet with someone who is unbelievably derogative and dismissive. No matter how levelheaded you might be, they eventually say something that gets under your skin, and you lose your temper. Crane seems a little entertained by this, but, well, you can't go around snapping at clients, after all. ( fail )

  • 91 - 100 - You meet with a high profile client who is as smooth as a shark and as cool as a cucumber. Nothing you say and do can ruffle them, but in spite of this, Crane seems both pleased and satisfied with your attempts at getting them to repay their outstanding debts. He gives you a nod of commendation. ( pass )

So this is what they do, huh. BingHua sat in her chair, wearing a wry smile as she stared down the man sitting opposite the table from her. Even that was starting to wear thin, and had the president not been in the room with them she would have been tempted to smite the imbecile after just a few sentences in.

No, she wasn't interested in checking out his “9-iron”, or in wasting in afternoon playing a game (that he was so caught up mansplaining to her that all attempts at getting through to him had been for naught.) If she wanted some sport she'd be playing polo, the Game of Kings, and not some cheap knockoff that allowed their players to even exist in such poor form. And with the kind of shape he was in, he wouldn't even make decent game if she had been hunting.

The bottom line is, Mister, that you still have to return that money you spent on that country club membership and gold-plated golf clubs,” she cut him off once more in a saccharine sweet voice that anyone could tell was straining to maintain civility.

You don't understand - I'll be winning this year's Masters and the money and women will start rolling in. If you want, I could even show you how to make a hole in one-

Listen up here, I'd sooner snap every single one of your sticks and shove them up your 18-hole course than stand another minute letting you breathe in my direction. You have 3 days or we'll be coming for more than that-

A small cough came from the side and BingHua stopped for a deep breath. “Well then, have a good day, and goodbye.
