Week four

[letsplayamod]

Two more of your fellow gods, your companions, your friends, have met their end together. As you turn in for the night, and a new week dawns upon you, it's starting to be a bitter experience. Just how much of this will you be forced to take?

But all isn't just despair. The morning is brighter than the last. The storm clouds that previously plagued almost every day have dissipated, and this week brings plenty of sun and a friendlier breeze. Not to mention, another floor of this strange temple has revealed itself. Whatever lies within is your domain, not Typhon's. Keep it tight in your grasp, because you never know when you'll lose it.

Two...?

Seven doesn't go into twelve. So Aoi can only work six days.

[latinumsbetter]

Alright, so if you only work six days and have a day off, that'll get you to break even.

But you want to do more than break even. So you need to try and bargain with me.

[yourheroine]

-! Oh yeah, Aoi forgot about games.

...three a day?

[latinumsbetter]

How much will three a day get you?

[yourheroine]

[Aoi counts on her fingers again.]

Three, six, nine, twelve, fifteen... Eighteen?

[latinumsbetter]

Eighteen. Right. Is that enough to cover everything you want?

[yourheroine]

...does Aoi keep the tips?

[latinumsbetter]

It's different at every job. But in my bar...yes. [he sounds a little grumbly and reluctant about it, but no sense having it be different here, considering...]

[yourheroine]

Ok! Eighteen a week plus tips and Aoi'll break more than even. How's that?

[latinumsbetter]

And what if something happens? Just breaking even is fine, but if you don't have enough to cover the ups and downs, you'll end up in debt.

[yourheroine]

Debt....debt's bad.

[Aoi nods.]

Twelve would be even, eighteen and tips is more than even.
So Aoi doesn't end up in debt.

[latinumsbetter]

Alright. So three's your goal.

So then you want to ask for more than that when you start a negotiation. Go at least two steps higher than what you want, if not more.

[yourheroine]

Boop boop!

So if we start negotiating, I'd say...

[She pauses as if reloading the conversation, then declares:]

Aoi wants thirty a week!

[latinumsbetter]

Thirty! What are you doing, trying to rob me blind?

Twelve.

[yourheroine]

...that's not enough.

Twenty-four.
