[ 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 )

Liya liked the Bank. In theory. It was classy and professional and essentially something that just begged for the War Clan's wilder touch. But just because it looked like it could stand some improvements, Crane himself made it clear that anything outside of his standards meant there was no chance of it ever happening. Which meant in reality, the Bank was on the "I can take it or leave it" list.

But it paid so here she was!

The War Horseman has prepped herself to deal with whatever nonsense and vile bullshit humans could spew out at her. Instead she got what was clearly an ancient human who ought to have not been allowed to live for this long. Each time they asked her to speak up (even though she wasn't saying anything), Liya had to resist the urge to put the human to sleep. Whoever owned them was being irresponsible and unnecessarily cruel in Liya's opinion.

Who would want to continue living when you barely could function? So instead she treated the client with pity and might have come across as condescending, had she not apparently resembled the human's grandchild. Liya felt her wings ruffle in indignation that she could in any way be compared to a mere human.

"She must be really cute and strong," Liya said through grit teeth, hoping that they would be offended or give some sort of negative reaction. Instead, she was asked (yet again) to speak up, speak slower, and Liya just opted to repeat her request for payment over and over again until the client remembered why they were there in the first place.
