[ 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 have two clients 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...but he does seem to appreciate the creativity you use to handle the situation. ( pass )

  • 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. They reminisce about stories of their childhood, and you get so involved in the storytelling that you almost forget you're doing work. ( pass )

  • 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 )

That old lady was back. The one that wouldn't stop talking about how he looked like his grand son. Rayu thought about this. How would be best to approach her. Maybe he had been trying it all wrong last time. he knew she couldn't hear him. But maybe he could subtly remind her in other ways.

He walked off to fill up on coffee and a cookie and brought them with him tot he desk. He carefully slide them over the desk first.

Mrs. Manson." he he said loudly and clearly as he could. "You do look lovely today."

"Oh thank you." she smiled at him. "I did curl my hair this morning."

Rayu didn't care about her hair but he smiled and nodded. "And I hope your grand son had been doing well."

"Well I haven't seen him lately. He doesn't call, doesn't visit. But you do look so much like him."

"do I? Well I suspect suspect he looks more like you, and must be hansom indeed."

that won him a smile and she was listening to him now. "I'm sure he's a fine young man, but he must be worried."

"worried? why?"

"Because you are behind on your payments. I'd hate to have him worry over you."

"I see. Well, I do have a little bit now. It's not much mind you, but I can get a little bit."

"If you give it to me, I'll get it taken care of."

Finally success. Rayu was exhausted just having to deal with her but he procured money. That's all that mattered.
