[ 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. Luna - or rather, Luna's assistants - have scheduled you some interviews with people who are behind on their loan payments.

[ 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 teenager who keeps crying everywhere. It's a little flustering to try and talk when someone is sobbing on your shoulder...needless to say. Luna simply hands you a tissue to figure things out, and you have snot on your shoulder. ( fail )

  • 16 - 30 - A set of triplets has arrived to claim their reasoning for being behind on their small business loan. All of them are quite cheerful, but sometimes too much talking gets confusing; fortunately, you can sort through all of their yammering in order to get them to pay a portion back. Luna is satisfied. ( pass )

  • 31 - 45 - Your patron looks so much like someone you know that it throws you off your game for a few seconds. Luna seems to think this is quite normal; maybe it's just one of those weird doppleganger coincidences. Either way, you're comfortable speaking with them. ( pass )

  • 46 - 60 - You spend the appointment reminiscing with an elderly patron who just seemed to want to talk. Luna, although still quiet, seems strangely satisfied with this outcome and gives you one of their rare nods of approval by the end. ( pass )

  • 61 - 75 - You flirt your way to getting a payment with your patron. Or, if you're not good at flirting, you're good at persuading somehow. They flirt back, but alas, it's not meant to be. Still, they're good natured about it, and so are you (hopefully). ( fail )

  • 76 - 90 - Your patron has a puppy that you get completely distracted by - whether in a good way or a bad way, regardless, you completely forget your original goal.( 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, Luna is satisfied when you managed to skillfully get them to repay a portion of their owed money. ( pass )

She was somehow not surprised the horsemen were involved with loan sharking. It seemed like the kind of thing they would do, honestly.

It was cruel, it was frustrating, and it was the perfect way to draw fright out of many people. She could tell there was fright in the set of triplets she had to talk to now, considering how eager they were to completely speak over each other and talk about their small business in increasingly tiny sentences and fragments.

"Shh, shh," Zana attempted to calm them, both because she really couldn't understand them when they were all speaking at once, and also because she didn't want the horsemen to get that much out of these humans. "It's okay! I don't need everything back right now. The company just needs a small payment from you, and then you'll be on your way."

"Really?"

"Just a small"

"Payment? Are you sure it doesn't have to be--"

"A whole lot of money because we don't really have a whole lot of money and--"

"--I just paid off my daughter's sports team oh gosh--"

"--Our small business will never--"

"Yes, I'm sure." Zana showed them all the bill and pointed out the minimum payment that was due. She knew that was how people got themselves into a trap, but, "Just pay this and we'll leave you alone!"

It worked. She got the money she needed out of them and the three triplets left generally calmer. The horsewoman seemed happy too, for some reason, so she supposed that worked out...

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF MY CHARACTER Zana is a trainee Moon hunter with dyed purple hair, violet eyes, and dark skin. She stands at 6'3" and has a curvy build, though she tries her best to not look very intimidating. With how nervous she looks most of the time, it's probably working.
