[Text | un: dualhound] Mister Shakedown

[So, Loz has been quiet. Too quiet. The man all but vanished recently since he's been busy doing odd jobs here. However, those jobs are done and finished with and the big lug is pissed the hell off.

Despite all his effort to bring in a decent income, the money he's obtained is a little on the scarce side. This, of course, is why he's on the warpath today. A living wage is all he wants but he's opted to take on a more sinister role in order to make some cash.

That's right. This asshole is thinking of breaking some faces today.]

Who's legs I gotta break to make some REAL money around here? I'm talking about thousands here not one gil.

I haven't had a good fight in a long time. I'm getting pretty damn bored.
So who wants to play? If I knock your block off, I'll take all your cash.

Deal? Deal.

( ooc: the dog is loose! Loz is causing trouble, again. Sorry for being so absent lately. It's been rough in RL right now but I'm making a comeback track like Miley Cyrus )

I believe what you're describing is colloquially referred to as "mugging".

Hey, hey, hey! Don't put words in my mouth.

This is just a bet. Not a crime.

It's a rather unbalanced bet.
You've made no offers to your opponent, after all.
What would someone win if they managed to best you?

I thought it was understood that if they win, my opponent keeps their stuff.

If that's not good enough, then how about I vow not to break their faces ever again?

[Oh, Loz.]

I find it rather hard to believe that you have yet to find someone who is willing to let you break people's legs for money. Are you sure you're searching in the right places?

[Zevran NO--]

Yo, Zevvie! Long time no see! How are you?

[Guess who just got a cool nickname from Loz here. Zevvie has a nice ring to it.]

Eh? You sound like you have a few contacts in mind! Feel like sharing, man? Trying to be a "law biding citizen" sucks!

Edited 2017-09-09 21:53 (UTC)

[HAH! "Zevvie." You know what? He'll allow it.]

You'd be surprised, the things you hear in my line of work.

There was one fellow who came in a few weeks ago. Big spender, by the look of it. He was looking for some reconnaissance, a coach coming in from the south. There have been one or two others since, looking for this debtor or that.

What sorts of things are you looking for? Aside from muggings.

See, I would've taken a job like that but I got suckered into construction work for a time.

Then there's the bounty hunting stuff that kind of dried up for now.
I really like being a bounty hunter. Taking out wanted targets is actually fun AND profitable.

I'm really damn strong, so most creatures don't stand a chance.

Don't go around breaking legs, that's no way to make money.

You sure about that, Tink? I got a taker!

Edited 2017-09-09 23:54 (UTC)

[ oh no, Loz - ]

Someone agreed to this?

[ of course they did.]

How do you know it'll be a fair fight?

Well, I never fight fair. So, I guess it would be even Stevens.

[Wait. Did he just crack a joke? Yep, Loz did.]

I'll break their face and get ya something nice!

Why only between us? Others may wish to gamble on your success or failure.

I was trying to keep things semi-legal but now I'm curious to see how many folks think they can take me on.

Edited 2017-09-10 03:37 (UTC)

I do not intend to challenge you.

[ says asha "fight me" greyjoy. really though she's just popcorn.gif ]

Merely that there is more coin to be made of this than you believe.

What's a matter? Not feeling up for the cardio?

[Aw, well! If she's not going to fight, at least she could watch him fight if she's near the South Gate in Olympia later.]

I can certainly use the coin. Maybe I should start promoting this as some kind of fight club.

[ THERE HE IS. His white walker adoptive brother! Robb had kept his eyes peeled with no sign of Loz about, had perhaps begun to worry (shh). He'd even searched the stasis chamber, with no luck.

This is... arguably not how Robb had hoped to find him. Spoiling for another fight. ]

Surely there are more... amiable ways to go about making the coin you seek.

[When the video feed clicks on on his end, it starts upside down in an oddly slanted angle. The alleged white walker peers into the screen with a somewhat confused look upon his face but soon he grins not the camera. There's far too much life and jubliee within those bright green-blue eyes to be the eyes of a dead man.

Loz looks relatively the same minus the fact he somehow looks even more ashen than before, too pale. It's certainly not the lighting since the sunlight from the window is quite bright. Loz is laying down on his bed half-way decent with only a bare chest.]

Oi, Robb! You looking well but you could use a trim.

[So says the man with the wild silver hair flopping over his eyes.]

Eh, like what? I could use another bounty hunting job.I really like doing that.

Edited 2017-09-10 11:55 (UTC)

Anyone who agrees to a suggestion that stupid deserves to lose all his money.

[ hi Loz, have another Stark — her face looks older than the last time they saw each other, the blue of her eyes icier than before. and whether she approves of the suggestion, and whether the one she's calling stupid is Loz for this idea or whoever agrees to take him on... well. who knows. ]

[STARES. He just stares at Sansa for a long time before saying the following--]

...Did I do something wrong? You look mean, Sansa. Cooler but also meaner.

[Forget about the stupid bets and mugging. He's concerned.]

What happened? Did someone do something? I'll break their damn necks!

[ his response is so unexpected, so honest and even touching that her expression changes into a small smile, pleased and surprised at once. ]

No one did anything, Loz. [ she pauses, realizes it's not quite right. ] No one you could do anything to, right now, anyway. I... I fell back asleep, and when I woke up, I remembered more than I did before.
