[ 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 )

This job seemed promising.

Actually, it looked very promising.

Led to a desk all of her own, Vania sat down and tucked her wings beside her as she smiled, adjusting herself in her seat before glancing up and seeing what looked to be a very gorgeous client.

Idly, Vania wondered if she should hit them. That was how War Horsemen greeted each other, right? Well. Some of them, anyway.

They sat down and crossed their legs, and Vania balked as they started to speak, unrelenting as they just went on and on about how beautiful Vania was.

Her.

Beautiful.

It was like that one War Horseman flirting with her all over again... and she didn't know how to handle it.

It was throwing her off of her game.

She had come in with confidence, and battling was her forte, but flirting?

Hell no.

Glancing over to Crane, she was distraught to find him watching this with an amused smile.

What.

Waving her hands, Vania tried to speak, but was spoken over just as easily, and then the client reached out and began to braid her hair.

Attacking people was a direct NO, so she had to sit there and listen to them crow praises at her for a good solid ten minutes with no break for breath.

The ten minutes felt like an hour.

Blinking hard, Vania was finally able to pull away -- her entire head full of braids now, about to speak -- but the client had set an envelope on the desk full of money, to cover their owed payment.

All Vania could do was stutter a thank you while the client stood up and blew a kiss her way, exiting with a wink.

She couldn't get out of there fast enough.
