Contract 2 [Video]

[servessithis]

[Vicente would put this as an audio post, but he still hasn't quite figured out how to switch feed types. The room he's recording in is pitch black, with the only light being the faint light from his device. One can make out a black shirt, gold amulet, pale hands with long fingers, and an equally pale chin.]

I have a proposition for anyone interested. You see, I had the misfortune to be born with a skin condition that makes sunlight dangerous to me.

What I need is someone willing to run daytime errands for me. I cannot pay you in this world's currency at this time, but I do have some gold coins you may be interested in for now. I will expect my errands to be carried out by the end of the day. More details will be revealed if I deem you worthy for the job.

[Have a slayer who does not buy what you're selling]

Skin condition huh?

Voice

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

Indeed. It is quite rare in my realm.

Re: Voice

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Not so much in mine.

[He's also had a very long time to learn to be a good liar.]

I only know of two other people who share my condition.

Re: Voice

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

[That makes her pause. In her world that sort of skin condition would automatically make her think vampire. She has to remember that here sometimes it's different.

Sometimes]

Okay. So that's rare.

Re: Voice

[Sounds like she's buying it. Possibly. Two hundred years later and he's still got it.]

Indeed. In my realm, it can make getting things quite hard without an assistant, since most establishes close around sunset.

[Sort of buying it. She's leery. She's been close to too many vampires to completely dismiss it but for the moment she'll give him the benefit of the doubt]

Delivery service?

Re: Voice

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

Yes. The job would also require someone who does not... pry.

Re: Voice

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Hold up. I'm not your girl. For the prying and so many other reasons. I was sort of suggesting that you call a delivery service. Not that I was one. [Unless you're fresh from hell and then she'll consider it]

Re: Voice

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

It is easier to manage a single person under my payroll. [That and he doesn't trust any "service" enough not to out him if any of them find out the truth regarding his condition.]

Re: Voice

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

Oooo-kay. [Really he'd have better luck telling her he's a vampire and trying to convince her he's good.]

Good luck finding someone.

Re: Voice

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

[Yes, but in his world most people attempt to kill vampires on sight and has yet to find out if things are different here. Most of the time they're right to do so, but he happens to like living.]

I am beginning to believe I will need more than mere luck.

Re: Voice

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

[She can understand that. Most of the time she's kill first and ask later but Spike and Angel have taught her that maybe a question or two might be warranted.]

Maybe put a more exciting spin on it? Or at least a more important title.

Re: Voice

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

Exciting spin, hm? Well, in my experience those following orders will be more inclined if a bonus of sort is offered. [Mostly extra Septims or an enchanted piece of jewelery. In this case, maybe special potions once he gets a new alchemy set.]

Re: Voice

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

See you're thinking more business like already.

Re: Voice

[servessithis.livejournal.com]

On that subject, I don't suppose this realm sells alchemy equipment or enchanted items? [If he has to improvise, he will.]

Re: Voice

[whattingawhat.livejournal.com]

I don't know? You might check the Black Market in the Underground. I've heard you can get most things there.
