SK is at his bar cleaning his glass and maintaining a somewhat calm expression. So far everything has been going relatively smoothly. Interestingly enough, his bar is actually starting to get some customers. They are appreciating the atmosphere of being rustic, modern combination.

As SK was cleaning the bar someone walks up to him.

Sinner: Hey, thanks for the drink it was nice to actually have one that doesn't seem to be the hub of any illegal activity or potshot gangs hoping to make a name for themselves.

SK: I would like to see them try. I just opened recently I refuse to allow it fall to ruin this quickly.

Sinner: How much do I owe you?

SK: $28.77

Sinner: Really, That much?

SK: You did have a whole bottle.

Sinner: I did?, (Looks back and there is a bottle sitting on the table) Huh, I guess I did.

SK: Ruff day.

Sinner: Yeah. My boss in a tizzy due to his little boyfriend not getting to what he wants, and causing problems for their own company and they are down my throat to improve something, like I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT YOU WANT ME TO IMPROVE YOU JACKASS.

SK: A simple Yes would have sufficed.

Sinner: Sorry man, didn't mean to trauma dump.

SK: Trust me, I have been through much worse than your little dump so feel free to continue I was just stating that it would have been quicker to have said yeah.

Sinner: I just feel like I am not being appreciated in the slightest.

SK starts to walk away.

Sinner: Em hello.

SK: I am listening, I can multitask.

Sinner: All I want to do is have some appreciation, I control all of his meetings is it that hard to say thank you.

SK begins rummaging through a box behind the counter.

SK: They probably would say thank you, but are trying to hold the facade that they are tuff and heartless and so they don't but they might still appreciate you, or maybe not.

Sinner: Huh, Thanks man that actually helps me. Oh right still got to pay.

He hands SK a card.

SK's eyes twitch a bit but remains calm.

SK: This will do. However if you are able to make a cash payment I am willing to reduce the price to $21.77.

Sinner: That is a seven dollar reduction. Why would you reduce it by so much.

SK: I don't particularly like modernity. I much prefer the old way of stuff but unfortunately, the world continues to progress so I shall adapt as I always have.

Sinner: Well man, what you're going to do.

SK: I could reduce the city to ashes forcing people to live in a place where almost all tech has been eradicated.

The sinner just looks at him.

Sinner: Hahahahah. Man you're a riot, I will definitely come back here if I get to hear some more waky ideas.

SK: I suggest you hurry up. something tells me if you do not hurry up then you boss will have another conniption and then where will you be.

Sinner: Oh, shit you're right. Thanks man see you later.
