[] third poisoned apple

[befriendthewolf]

[A cheerful voice rings over the phone.]

Oh, hello!  I've been meaning to call about this lately, my apologies...  Back home, I was part of what you could call a favor bank.  We'd do whatever the client needed; clean up around their house, help with... romantic woes, and the occasional apprehension of a delinquent, in return for their own favors in

"This sounds like an intriguing proposition, though I'm afraid I could only help with parts of it. Tell me more."

[The worst person to join this bank ever. Right here.]

[phone]

[befriendthewolf]

Well, it works like a real bank! We'd do the favor for the person, and in exchange they'll owe us at a later date! [giggle] Even if you could only help with parts, you need all the parts to create a whole. Record keeping, defense, arms... everything!

[lunawolves10th]

"Hmh. I am not sure how comfortable I am making other people owe me, I tend to be of a more altruistic bent myself. But perhaps I could ask a favor of you, then return one at your convenience."

[befriendthewolf]

Ah... I can understand how that would make being a part of the bank difficult. Once I get it up and running, we'd be glad to help you out!

That sounds like an excellent plan. I'm sure I could pitch in my services in exchange for some daily cooking... No one in my assigned house is [[alive for more than an hour]] capable.

[befriendthewolf]

Thank you, miss! It's natural for me to want to help. Your services would have to be worth a lot for that large of a favor, though! We'll try to take on every favor we can [the more people in debt, the more power the bank has] but keep in mind that it's downsized from our original scale. I'll do my best to make sure your needs are met, however.

[ergaleomancer]

It's sir. [[This said very simply and without malice--she's used to correcting people on it.]]

And my dear, I am an ergaleomancer, and likely to become the next High Ergaleomancer to the Queen in my home. My services are worth in the hundreds of guineas, and it's only natural for me to look into assisting the people here whilst I am away from my home.

[Phone]

[befriendthewolf]

Sir? Ah, I'm very sorry!

[The rest of Theta's comment gets one sniff, however. Disdainful, the sniffles? It's unsure.] That sounds grand indeed! I do hope your services will prove truly helpful then, if you are to ask so much of us.

*Hi Len is practically in your lap.*

What are you doing?

[befriendthewolf]

[HEY THERE BUDDY. Ringo just giggles.]

Business! It's for a favor bank; you do favors for others and they'll owe you again later! I was part of one back home.

[tsunslut]

Why don't you just threaten them?

*Oh Len.*

[befriendthewolf]

That's not the point! It's to help them out, but you couldn't go around doing favors for free or you'd get exhausted.

[Your not!brother has been in an ever better mood lately now that he's at least gotten some of his spells back. He wanders into the kitchen, humming as always, and plops himself at the table with Ringo after getting some juice from the fridge.]

Good day, Ringo! Have you been well?

[befriendthewolf]

Hello! Of course I have. You seem a lot happier than usual, you know!

[dodo_master]

[He grins] Have I? I've finally gotten some of my spells back, so that might be why! They're starting me off small, but I'll take what I can get! Did you get anything recently?

[befriendthewolf]

You have! That sounds quite wonderful; what kind of spells? Can you turn a pumpkin into a horse carriage?

[Ringo purses her lips and shakes her head.] I haven't... But that's okay!

[bluefrompallet]

Oh, a favor bank? Sounds to be something right up the alleyway of a kind person like myself!

[befriendthewolf]

Oh, you think? I'd be glad to have your help then!

[bluefrompallet]

Of course! You just let me know what kind of favors you get and I'll see what I can do~!

[befriendthewolf]

Most certainly! What's your name, miss?
