I need advice!
( Hello network, here's your friendly neighbourhood Stampede about to fully launch into something with no forewarning and no introductions. It's how he makes friends ... and also enemies, don't worry. ) So, we have to get jobs, right? But I'm not exactly sure what I'd be good at. I usually just do whatever people need around the towns I'm visiting, which means I know a little of most things. But I figured this place was new and people might be a little more cautious about that. So I made flyers!
( In one hand - metal, blue sometimes sea green - Vash holds up a stack of leaflets. )
Only when I was trying to give them out I got a lot of dirty looks so can someone tell me what I've done wrong! I really want to be useful while I'm here.
( Turning the flyer around so that his ( unfortunate ) captive audience can see. The design is obviously home made, and probably in a rush. On the paper it proudly proclaims
VASH THE STAMPEDE
RENT BOY
WILL DO WHATEVER YOU NEED
COST: ???
Below that is a crude drawing of the man himself - a stick figure with a triangle body ( his coat, sadly missing ) and a mass of spiky hair. It has a crude beaming smile on the circle of a face. )
Is it the drawing? I could have done better I guess, but I was in a hurry. ( A pause, a slow dawning realisation. ) Aw, shoot. It's the name, right? I didn't use my civilian name! Crap, that's probably a no-no.
( Nothing else could be the issue.
... Right? )

Pretty tough! I'm a lot stronger than I look. Why? You need something moved or someone tussled with? I'm a strict peace lover but I can be real threatening when I want to be. Especially if someone's not minding their own business.
( As threatening as a guy who usually looks like this - (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:･ﾟ✧ - can be )

I work at an entertainment arena in the seedier part of the city. They host a lot of competitive fighting matches. One of them is wrestling - both the real and the fake sort. We could always use more people.

Okay, I have actually done that before. There was a town that had these guys that wore masks and they'd beat each other up for bets. I really needed the money and it seemed like a good idea. But, I don't know, I'm really strong, I wouldn't want to hurt anyone.
( He'd thrown a punch wrong back then too, got run out of town. He still feels bad about it fifty years later. )

[ listen, getting thrown to the ground still hurts even when it's choreographed! ]

( Also he's very much about being more dramatic to hide his true skill, so that fits. )
You think you could introduce me to shady wrestler guy? ( Is he very obviously batting his eyelashes? Absolutely. Take pity on him, Maki. ) I'll owe you!
