I've been more than fucking patient, Amada. Stiffing a bounty hunter is not an intelligent thing to do. We tend to get our payment one way or another. You've got until the end of tomorrow night before I collect.

Why didn't you tell me there was a deadline? I'm not trying to 'stiff' you. I just had bad luck trying to get everything at the same time.

I have almost all of them, though. I can give you what I have tonight.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

Good. I thought you were a smart boy. I didn't think that list was going to be that difficult, but I'll might let the deadline go depending on what all you've gotten so far. My room hasn't changed.

I'll be waiting.

[rectifies.livejournal.com]

Sorry. I'll have the payment complete by tomorrow night.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

Good.

Ken,

I don't know the details of this[underline continues into an arrow pointing to the original post]. But if you need a hand, come and find me, okay?

[rectifies.livejournal.com]

That's okay, Wright-san. It is my responsibility anyway.

Thank you for the offer, though.

...Are you saying you'll do bad things to Ken-kun?

I don't think you should do that. It's not nice.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

You know what else isn't nice? Not paying someone you agreed to pay.

He says he'll pay, so I won't need to collect. It's just business.

[bewarethecute.livejournal.com]

...I know that. But still.

Ken-kun is my friend. I won't let someone hurt him, even if they have a good reason to.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

I shouldn't have to. Trust in your friend. And your loyalty is noted. You're a good friend to him.

[rectifies.livejournal.com]

Don't worry. She just likes to say things Nothing will happen.

[marin-karin.livejournal.com]

Why exactly would he need to hire a bounty hunter?

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

That is a matter between my client and myself - respect his privacy. Fuck off, sweetcheeks.

[marin-karin.livejournal.com]

Forgive me for being worried when someone I'm in charge of is appearing to be threatened.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

Then you should talk to him about providing payment and not to the one payment was promised to. Or are you saying he doesn't have to fucking compensate for services rendered because you don't like the idea of him playing with fire?

Or is it because he didn't fucking ask you for permission, first?

[marin-karin.livejournal.com]

I know how business works, and have no desire to get in the way of that unless you try to harm him, nor am I concerned simply because he didn't ask me. He's old enough to make his own choices. I'm concerned as to the reasoning behind it.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

If you know how business works, then why the fuck are you asking me what the contract was? And you know what, sweetcheeks, business isn't always nice. Be thankful I'm giving him fair warning. He contracted me quite a while ago.

I am very good at my job and I should have been fucking paid by now. I have cause to be a little demanding here.

[hesitation marks like the whoa]

[rectifies.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry, but this is a private matter.

Payment? Oh, this is just ridiculous.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

If the kid chooses to make a business deal, I'd hope you'd support him holding up his end. I told him up front I don't work for free. As long as he follows through with what he agreed to do, I keep my mouth shut as per bounty hunter ethics. I'm sure that's something you would like me to continue to do.

[same]

[remedying.livejournal.com]

You shouldn't have accepted it in the first place.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

And why shouldn't I accept work when offered a contract? I am a bounty hunter and he had good intentions. If I did things for free, I would have done this one for free. I happened to come across more than I was originally looking for in the process.

Keep in mind, oh failing anonymous one, that HE approached ME. I did not offer.

[la]

[remedying.livejournal.com]

That's a stupid question and you know it. I don't know what made you think accepting that from a kid was a good idea, but quit playing dumb, got it? You know why I'm not happy with this.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

Of course I fucking know why you aren't happy. I just don't care.

[la]

[remedying.livejournal.com]

Yeah, good to know you do.

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

I've got new information. Want it or are you going to continue pretending you don't fucking care what might be happening?

[la]

[remedying.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Like what?

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

And here I thought you didn't want me talking in the open about what I know. Change your mind? I don't give a fuck who knows, but I did give you my word since you seem to care.

[la]

[remedying.livejournal.com]

Who said I did? I just Fine, just tell me whenever!

[himetsuru.livejournal.com]

I like open invitations.
