Okay, you've got my interest.

[wantsiceland]

Is this an interest that'll end in a job?

[losttrack]

I don't know. Why are you only aiming for sidekick?

[wantsiceland]

It's kind of my thing.

[is0latedthinker]

...You're kidding.

[wantsiceland]

... No?

[is0latedthinker]

[Alan stares for a minute before responding. He really has no idea how to respond to this.]

If you really were a... villain's sidekick... aren't you supposed to lay low?

[inharperwetrust]

If you don't want every do-gooder in the castle after you, I'd suggest not doing stuff like this.

[wantsiceland]

Like this is going to be the thing that pushes them over the edge.

[inharperwetrust]

You never know, some people take things a little too far.

[ofhope]

You're new here, aren't you? I'm sure everyone's going to act very outraged over your lack of subtlety.

That's probably as far as they'll go, though.

[wantsiceland]

Yeah; less outrage, more confusion.

[which confuses her a little bit, but hey]

[ofhope]

Maybe it's because most villains don't announce 'I am a villain'. It's incredibly storybook... Maybe you just want attention.

I may have something for you. The hours are flexible, and the pay is whatever you want it to be.

Finally, a taker. And with something that sounds promising, too. What are the details?

I would need you to perform various tasks for me. Theft, kidnapping, etc. It is so very boring here, so I intend to spice things up a little.

In terms of payment, the choice is yours. Cash, weapons, or whatever else suits your fancy.

Ladies and gentleman we have a fan of the direct approach in the house.

Anything else is a waste of my time.

You sound like you get bored easily.

[Not that he knows what that's like or anything.]

There are a few people here who are always on the lookout for an extra pair of hands.

I can give you a couple of names if you're intrested?

[ugh, villains........ on the other hand, potentially someone actually from his version of Earth?]

You're not with the Guild, are you?

[wantsiceland]

Am I supposed to know which "Guild" you're talking about here?

[samson]

Of Calamitous Intent. Not familiar?

[schrodingersghost]

Well, there goes the neighborhood.

[wantsiceland]

Oh, come on; there's no way I can be the first, right?

[schrodingersghost]

First one I've heard. I mean, its been months since anyone has threatened to destroy me in graphic detail. And don't even get me started on the lack of witty banter round here.
