[soulus]

How do you intend on saving up here? Or are you saying that you have nothing even in your world?

[dawnblushed]

I could barter with people for things while we're here. I bet I could get some really good stuff that way with enough time.

...and I have stuff back home! But there's a big group of us traveling together, so if it would be too much, I'd have to make sure to earn some more money to make up for it.

[soulus]

How long do you think we'll be here?

You should be more concerned with now than later. We still don't know why we're here.

[dawnblushed]

I'm concerned with both.

I don't know how long we're going to be here, but I don't intend to let it be for nothing, either. So, in the time I have, I want to make sure I learn things I can use to make things better back home.

[soulus]

There's nothing I can do about that.

[The referral can't be expedited under these circumstances, after all.]

It'll be expensive. That's all I can say for now.

[dawnblushed]

...but, not as expensive as a soul, right?

[soulus]

No.

But I wouldn't say no to it.

[dawnblushed]

No way! If I'm going to buy something from you, it'll be at a fair price. I'm not overpaying.

[soulus]

As long as you don't underpay, there won't be any issues.

[He can feel a little bummed out about losing out on a soul, though.]

[dawnblushed]

...do people try to underpay you often?

[It sounds like he's got some experience with "issues".]

[soulus]

There will always be difficult work that pays little.

[dawnblushed]

...it sounds like you need to get better clients.

[Yona you literally paid him for information with a keychain that had your name on it.]

[soulus]

[He looks at Yona.]

There will also be easy work that pays well.

[dawnblushed]

Huh... I guess that might help make up for it.

[soulus]

In the end, the sums balance themselves. What's important is finding work.

[dawnblushed]

Have you had much luck finding work since we got here?

[soulus]

I've found some.

[dawnblushed]

Oh! Good for you.

[soulus]

Does the state of my work interest you that much? It shouldn't.

[dawnblushed]

Why not?

[She doesn't really answer his question, but also. It's kind of an answer to his question! She's curious. That's why she keeps asking.]

[soulus]

It has no bearing on you. Knowing whether I've been busy or not does nothing for your learning. Simply put, it's a waste of your time.

[dawnblushed]

Not really. It just means I'm learning about the type of work you do, and I think it's good to know about lots of different things.

[soulus]

I will do anything. There's nothing else to say.

[dawnblushed]

But, what sorts of things have you been hired to do here?

[soulus]

That's confidential . . . however, most of the clientele have sought information of some kind.
