dial h for hire [video]

[unweave]

[ The feed picks up with a slight buzz of static. The visuals over the network focus on a waist-up shot of Aranea who isn't looking too hot. Not only is her face bruised (healing black eye, slightly swollen nose and busted lip), but there is a bandage pack poking out from under her top. ]

Don't want to waste anyone's time — there's enough stupid messages coming across this every day and I don't want to add to it.

My names Aranea Highwind and I'm recruiting for a mercenary group — odd jobs, monster hunts, personal protection, and the like. I'm willing to give a large cut on jobs I get in, bordering 65%. Tough sons of a bitches please apply and those looking for their problems to be solved? I'm your gal.

[ I mean, even now she's confident with a sly smirk plastered on her face. This is the most blunt ass sales pitch ever? But — ]

You can't trust everyone you meet here, some people will literally stab you. [ She nudges the view to her hip, but rolls her eyes as the camera gets back to her. ] But, there's still people wanting to help out. Why waste your time at that shitty fight club when you can make a difference and get paid for it? Think about it.

That's an interesting offer, Ms. Highwind. [it sure would be nice if he could make some moolah, but sadly he's a poor helpless blind man who can't fight..... so helpless.... so weak.... so useless.... all he's good for is his looks] You're heading this?

[also--]

Did someone try to hurt you?

[unweave]

[ Such a helpless blind man. Maybe he can be their mascot!! A cute devil or something. ]

Trying to. We'll see if anything sticks. [ A slight twist of her lips make her words sound more confident after. ] Nah, they did. No trying about it. After we split up, picked a fight with someone. Too drunk and didn't think things through.

[ But, she's at least in ok spirits about it: ]

My ego was the worst wound of all.

[ghettobatman]

[Yes, he'll be their cute shirtless mascot!!! Or their secretary!!! Matt has been pretty staunch about only donning the suit to save people, but there's nothing stopping him from taking these mercenary jobs for free! Better to stay abreast of the situation]

It's a good idea. I don't know that there's much I can provide, but I'd be willing to help out in any way I could.

[She picked the fight? Well, at least she wasn't harmed]

[(that's kinda hot ok)]

Well, I'm glad you're alright.

[unweave]

[ It was not as sexy as it sounds. ]

I'm known to have a few smart ideas every now and then. I'm not sure if this will be accessible — uhhh... but, who knows,
right? [ She teases. ] Thanks, coulda done worse.

[ghettobatman]

[Matt likes violent women, you know he's trash don't make me spell this out for you]

No, I think it's a good idea. The people around here need help, and this is a get way to get organized. As long as you don't overcharge for services like protection, I'm sure it'll go over well.

[unweave]

[ She won't be ur Elektra. 2much baggage. ]

I'll charge what they offer. Not a coin more. If they offer 2 silver or 200, that's up to them.

[ghettobatman]

[look... just beat him up it's fine]

I'm glad to hear it, Ms. Highwind.
