LAU, YOU CAN BE GUEST OF HONOUR

[reanimated]

Days one through four without boss: Aces, the pub is mine for the night, free shots for everyone, etc. etc.

Day five without boss: Considering the possibility that he might be dead? Aces, the pub is mine for the night, free shots for everyone, etc. etc.

Day six without boss: Turns out he was released, the pub is mine FOREVER, free shots for ME, etc. etc.

Anyway so he's gone and seeing as he left no last will and testament (cos what would it say anyway? "I leave all my shite poetry about blood to my girlfriend, ohhhhhhhhh wait") I'm going to go ahead and say the Phony is now under my ownership from here until the end of time!

"But Nathan, you don't know how to run a business" — WHO GIVES A SHIT? Open bar at the Phony tonight in loving memory of our dearly departed friend Connor or Constatine or whatever the fuck!

I'd like to see the paperwork before I make a commitment.

[highlyinformed]

I can assure you I have the finances to keep you employed much more comfortably than you had with Conrad.

[icesolation]

Then I'm sure you'll have the paperwork done quite promptly.

[highlyinformed]

I have a social engagement this evening, but the paperwork will be ready by the morning. We can start soon after that.

[icesolation]

Very well.

[ricinbeans]

Oh god, you seem nice and like, straight and narrow, please don't do this

[icesolation]

Is something wrong? I know they had their problems. . .

[ricinbeans]

Uh yeah, Lau basically tortured the dude. Look, you just don't wanna get involved with him. Trust me.

[icesolation]

What do you expect me to do? I'm not saying I'm going to make the deal, but I do need a job and Conrad wasn't paying me. I was happy to help, of course, but he's not here anymore.

[ricinbeans]

There's other jobs out there. I'm just sayin.

[icesolation]

It is still my decision to make.

[ricinbeans]

You're right. Okay? You're right, and I totally get that. 'Cause I hate when people tell me what to do too. So just think of it as like... friendly advice, yo. That's all.

[icesolation]

All right.
