Yes, siree. Rare complete collection of Bleach Z, the longest running literature series on earth. Indeed, we accept credits. If you need to refresh your memory, here on earth whenever you get to do some service, you receive some proof of your service called "money." In exchange, those "money" can be used to get service from other person, like food or entertainment. I completely understand that you're still new here, and still don't have any money. That's why I accept credit, that is an agreement that you'll exchange your future money for this current transaction. Just sign here. What is "interest" you say? Nothing important.

Next, the Idolmaster series! I have some anime, means to play it, games, and means to play it as well! Yes, it's those things playing on the screen right now! It's just the demo, the real version is much more exciting! Please queue right there!

No need to be afraid that I'll run out! I still have much more!

(Comment or help her? Zentradi NPCs are also welcome to reply).

SSR eh? They don't seem that bad. I wonder if they pay better than UG.

*She notices you and asks you a question.*

Hey, may I know what do you think about those SSR guys? And what is Unity Group's formal relationship with them anyway? Are they ally? Enemy? Tsundere Ally?

Are they an enemy? No, I don't think so. They're just... doing their own thing.

But they're much more interventionist. Would Unity Group launch a whole operation to bring down a government? Even an illegitimate one.
star_of_sad: (Unease)

From: [personal profile] star_of_sad


NUNE and ESUN... these were the two power blocks, even if the former was much smaller. But there are countries that do not belong to either. Unity Group is an ESUN organisation so we didn't really have jurisdiction to act outside of it, unless the circumstances were special.

SSR isn't sponsored by the ESUN council. At least, not officially...

[Setsuko remembers well how some member countries declared their support for SSR.]

That's the short of it. I do not know all the exceptions and details, but you get the general idea.

It'd be nice if it didn't have to face the apocalypse at all.

Oh, by the way...
star_of_sad: (Curious)

From: [personal profile] star_of_sad


You did wonder about the pay, but aren't you in Unity Group for your own protection?

What I am saying is leaving to join SSR might be a bad idea.

[Especially with that bounty Westwood mentioned earlier.]

I don't know... but that's a good question. Do you think he might have an ulterior motive?

No, I can't either.

"Money?" The Zentradi in question empties his pockets, but comes up with nothing.

"How do I get it? I can fight, is that not enough?"

From: [personal profile] srwu_npc2


"Hmm..." The Zentradi seems to be considering his options.

"What happens if I take your things with credit now but don't give you any money later?"

From: [personal profile] srwu_npc2


"Edge of universe? Deculture!" He takes a step back with a shocked expression.
"Miclons can be fierce when pushed! I won't forget to pay you back, for sure."

From: [personal profile] srwu_npc2


The Zentradi looks around the stall, but with a determined expression picks something up.

"This."

A Zwei Wing poster - one related to THAT concert.

The SSR?

I worked with them for a short while before I decided to stay here. They're good people, mostly.

What's a Tsundere Ally, anyway?

Do those kind of people even exist in the first place? No, nevermind...

I guess they're just a group that shares the UG's interests, but not the methods and sponsors. That's based on my experience.

I wasn't there too long, though. So take it with a grain of salt.

"The third thing you mentioned," Dido replies. "With a dash of 'Persistent Rival'."

She smacks a wrench against her leg. "If you wanna leave for the SSR, that' your gig. Just don't get any funny ideas about getting paid to snitch on us or secretly sabotage stuff! Got it?"

Re: 2


"The rank-and-file members seem alright," Dido says with a shrug. "The commanders seems like pompous asses, though."

"And they'd probably pay you a lot for selling us out," she adds snarkily. "Of course, there'd probably be a catch..."

Re: 2


"The usual catch," Dido remarks. "If we discovered you were doing that, we'd beat you bloody senseless."

She snorts. "Plus, the SSR would probably off you the moment your usefulness ran out. Traitors can't be trusted, after all: they betray people!"

Re: 2


"Hmmm...." Dido muses to herself. "That could work nicely..." She frowns. "But how can we be sure you wouldn't pretend to betray us so you could betray them, but then go and actually betray us for real? A double betrayal, in other words?"
actuallyselfish: (You're a walking corpse!!!)

From: [personal profile] actuallyselfish

Re: 2


"But in the previous iteration of betrayal, you'd only be betraying the SSR, while giving the appearance of betraying us...so that would be one increment of betrayal. But if you pretended to betray us with our blessing, then went ahead and actually betrayed us, that'd be a triple betrayal..."

Dido's nose starts bleeding. It's probably due to the lack of humidity.

"Just...please don't betray us, okay?" Dido says. "It'd be too much of a hassle!"

...You're selling anime and games to aliens. Do they even have TVs?

Hope you're right. Otherwise you'll have lots of angry giants knocking at your door.

I...

... I want to say ally. There's good people with them, people I know! I don't like that they somehow got the Adele designs without me knowing, but...

[Well, best they be put to use.]
