is it a toktik or is it a business ad? @chocobo

[mesospheric]

[ It begins with… a blink. Some guy with gravity-defying blond hair looks around, as if surveying the area for passer-by before he engages in what must surely be an embarrassing affair, like the filming of a TokTik. ]

This isn’t necessary, but—

Do you… need things done?

[ He sort of starts off strong before trailing off in classic Embarrassed Delinquent-esque reluctance. His eyes, locked ahead. His expression, stony. ]

For a fee, certain troublesome tasks can be done for you to satisfying completion. This includes but is not limited to: monster slaying, bodyguard duty, and… errands.

The fee will fluctuate depending on what a hassle I find it to be.

[ Another blink. Another look around. Something surely comes next, right? Damn. Is Cloud his own PR department? ]

… I look forward to working with you.

[ And just like that, the feed ends. ]

[ Okay this is...new. Is this how mercenaries get work in the future? Not very clandestine, even if it's visible only to other Outsiders.

She will give him a pass. If only because he bears a passing resemblance to Bedivere. ]

How many years have you been a sellsword?

The hell have you been doing to that sword? Hitting rocks with it?

[Oh, come on. Taryon did better when putting out flyers seeking an adventuring party, though he was paying them to hang out with him, not the other way around.

That, and his two part-time jobs back home were more about one-on-one persuasion. But he's going to throw in his own advice!]

Where's the style? Where's the confidence? Are you going to put this advertisement out to the public? You need to keep your focus straight on the camera! Puff yourself up! Speak loudly!

Listen, I know a thing or two about getting people to come to you. How about showing us what you can do and proving that you're more than capable of handling monsters and bodyguard stuff?

Great job Cloud! I'll hire you again next time I need something done.

[Although she probably still owes him from the last time he helped her out.]
